#GospelToday (Luke 12:49-53) "I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing!
There is a baptism with which I must be baptized, and how great is my anguish until it is accomplished!
Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division.
From now on a household of five will be divided, three against two and two against three; a father will be divided against his son and a son against his father, a mother against her daughter and a daughter against her mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law."

Gente, se está preparando en la Unión Europea una ley de vigilancia masiva de los chats privados. Se ha creado una web para reunir información y contactar con el Parlamento Europeo y sus representantes sobre este tema:
@marimarimorena Creo que las dos tenéis razón. Por una parte no dejaremos de usar nada pero por otra parte existen formas de evitar el control. Decide que es lo que tu quieres y puedes usar. Llevo años desconectando poco a poco de lo que es "mainstream". Y en cuanto pueda me pongo con #GraphenOS .
@marimarimorena Nada es 100% seguro. Pero puedes reducir ese porcentaje y para mi ese es el camino. Reducir. Dejando de lado la estupidez del titular, si los Mossos están mosqueados será por algo:

One of the many wonders of #WHY2025 was the lovely people of Crumpet Camp. Over the course of the event they cooked and served over 250 crumpets to any hungry hacker that came by.
People from all over came by for a tasty British snack. And as I sat there munching on crumpets I listened to the reactions of those trying them for the first time.
After a few dozen. I cracked.
"That's surprisingly good" says someone with an accent indicative of foreign lands.
If course it's fucking good. The lovely people of camp crumpet have gone to a lot of effort to bring these to camp, cook them, and give them away to anyone who comes by. What else did you expect? They're not going to do that for something that isn't good.
Eventually I challenged some of those saying this. Why were they surprised?
"Cos it's British food"
"So?"
"Your food sucks"
"Such as?"
"Um... Uh... Ah... Oh"
This exchange happened a few times. With different people. 2/n
One person commented on how it sucked like Dutch food sucked. Which I could not resist biting at.
"Dutch food can actually be really good" I respond.
"Really?" Says a Dutch resident of British origin who was in ear shot.
"Yes really"
"Such as ?"
"A delicious Hachee, stamppot boerenkoel, or a draadjesvlees, cooked for 3 hours in a little butter until it falls apart when you touch it with a fork. Delicious and tender. Served with a simple mashed potatos. It's wonderful"
"yes really. But" and here it's a big but. "You won't make a good Dutch meal if you're buying the ingredients from supermarkets, the quality is so poor due to a race to the bottom. The potatoes are the size of golf balls, the onions are flavourless, & tiny, cooking with such ingredients is laborious and the result flavourless"
"Oh"
"If you put the effort in to get good ingredients, then you can make a delicious traditional Dutch meal that can stand up there with dishes from other nations" 4/n
"but isn't it all bland and boring, like British food?"
"First of all, troll, second of all british food cooked properly isn't bland and boring either. A rich cottage pie with a crispy top straight out the oven on an autumn evening is just heavenly"
"But you don't use any spices?"
Ok I'm definitely being trolled at this point.
"There's a lot of mocking about Brits and the Dutch doing all their empire shit to bring back spices, but then not actually put it in the food. But it's not true" 5/n
"But it also indicates a failure to understand how to cook and how flavour works. If you look at famous french dishes, that noone would ever accuse of being bland, I use more spices when cooking Dutch food than I do French. It might not be massive amounts of chillis giving lots of heat. But delicious doesn't have to mean spicy hot. A well balanced flavour profile can be achieved without needing to be overwhelmingly spicy." I took a sip of my tea.
"...the only spice in there is pepper, yet it's an incredibly tasty well rounded dish. Made from good quality ingredients, it's heavenly. The same is true for a Dutch dish like Hachee, which does actually have some spices, not many, a few cloves, and juniper berries. But again it's a delicious meal from simple good quality ingredients. And that's a key part of understanding traditional food from the likes of .nl or .UK. it's about taking simple ingredients and making a good meal" 7/n
"in fact there's a certain fractal nature to some of the dishes across the cuisines of north western Europe, as the climate means we grow the same ingredients. Take for example colcannon in Ireland, Stamppot boerenkoel, or the German Grünkohl. It's kale, potatos, onions, and maybe a couple of other ingredients, like in the Dutch one, bacon. But it's a great dish on an autumn night. I like to pair it with Hachee, but traditionally it's served with a smoked sausage"
Japan. Notoriously great food. Nearly zero spices, and most of those are imports. Not a lot of variety (broadly speaking; it's an island) of plants but wow, great food there!
Also shit food there. Shit food in england. Shit food in the US. If you do a shit job! And lots of people don't even try.
Mexican and native American derived food. The opposite (sic) of Japanese food; often cheap ingredients, lots of spices! Lots of "poor people's food". But so much of it is great! And there's great subtlety amongst even the peppers and spices.
We all eat what grows around us (or did...). Lots of us are shitty cooks (we've improved a lot; pandemic was a big jump up).
But talking about food is a bit like talking about sex; many people are really weird about it. And bigoted. And stuck in bad habits.
"we have become detached from our food, both in terms of where the ingredients come from, but in a lack of appreciation for it because we have had it served badly once, and then not been willing to try it again. Or in some cases because of straight up ignorance. Who would go out for Dutch cuisine when there's a french restaurant, and an Indian restaurant on either side ?"
More tea.
"Anyway, stop equating spicy with good. It's not the same. Delicious food can be made without spices" 9/n
"and while I'm on the rant. Anyone who says they use a whole bulb of garlic when the recipe says only a clove of garlic, has no understanding of how a balanced recipe with good ingredients should be. Unless you are making something where garlic is the main flavour (i.e. garlic bread). Garlic is like a bay leaf, you should notice that it's missing, not be able to single out that it's been added"
Aaaand breathe.
"Feeling better?"
"Yeah. Wanna come over for a Dutch meal sometime?"
Like Italian food too, hardly any spice, but incredible because you can't walk 10 meters without bumping into amazing produce in Italy.
You're also absolutely right about where the Dutch and English cuisines meet hand in hand is the supermarkets constantly cheapening the ingredients used in day to day cooking.
(I constantly talk shit on French food for being bland and it’s a common jest that French food overly depends on grease to make up for its blandness where I grew up)
One big thing people don't understand about balancing flavors is acidity and how it affects the overall profile. Sometimes just adding a teaspoon of vinegar is enough to make all the difference in a dish - you dont actually taste the vinegar but it opens a bright and lively taste path that you are definitely aware of.
The current (possibly just American) trend of putting jalapenos in everything is getting old af.
Yup, supermarkets are to blame. I was born in Cheshire long ago. Cheese from the grocer's was Cheshire cheese by default. It came from local farms via a local wholesale market. It arrived as a 'wheel' and was sold in wedges with a rind on. It was crumbly and tasty. Proper Cheshire cheese is now made on a single farm and sold at a premium price in speciality shops to wealthy 'foodies'. Supermarkets sell tasteless, damp, plastic-wrapped slabs of 'Cheshire Cheese' for the rest of us.
I'm generally unable to understand people who complain about Dutch food being bad when their frikandel, kroket, etc are some of our favorite snacks to eat at any train station, period
British food isn't bland. We had war rationing, and a whole generation became accustomed to simple food because that's all that was available. Returning American troops spread the myth that our food is bland, not understanding that we were on a war footing. The myth persists to this day.
Starting in the 1970s, foreign travel became more affordable, and our tastes were once again diversified. Today there's more spicy food sold in the UK than anywhere else in Europe! We love spice!
I'm English (not British) and I think that the only nice food in England has come from another culture. The only 'English' food I can think of is stodgy and tasteless, such as fish and chips, full English (cooked breakfast) or what we call 'Sunday dinner', which is roast meat, boiled root vegetables, Yorkshire pudding (baked pancake) and gravy. Nothing to compare to the tasty food from other cultures. That's why our most popular dish is chicken korma lol.

After three months of BETA testning the Cyber Espresso, around 200 active users, almost 600 created and customized feeds I conclude and close this chapter of my journey. Now I'm preparing for the official launch which will also bring a few new features I've really missed.
When I started this "project" last year around October I never imagined how much work would be involved, the time required and the hardship of having to prioritize.
But the vision is clear; threat intelligence for cybersecurity professionals. I'm quite frankly tired of "good" intelligence mostly being available to bigger corpos. I want to try and make a dent in this space.
Thank you all who have tried the Espresso, and I look forward to welcome you back in a few weeks when I can finally conclude the service available and online again.

Pues ya es una jodienda porque somos unos cuantos los izquierdistas que deseamos que una monstruosidad neoliberal como la UE, que imposibilita políticas serias de izquierdas, caiga.
Pero claro, aún siendo lo que es, todavía no está tan desquiciada como EEUU y tiene sus cosillas y regulaciones.

I was watching a detective series set on Mallorca as much for the scenery, etc., and got to wonder--geez just how big IS that island. Maybe like as big as Manhattan? Ah...wrong...try Long Island--or any of these perhaps more familiar places. The internet can be marvelous. mapfight.xyz/map/mallorca/

Au concert des Wampas à la fête de l'huma 2022, coincé avec les autres fauteuils roulants dans la fosse, je vois Didier Wampas venir vers nous.
Je me dis qu'il va nous dire coucou. Pas du tout, il va prendre les poignets de dossier d'un usager de fauteuil roulant pour le deplacer, sans ménagement et sans consentement et pouvoir se jeter dans la foule pour faire un slam.
Depuis, Didier Wampas est cancel pour moi. Cc @orange_lux ma complice
Η αστειότητα, και η γελοιότητα της συναντησης Τραμπ-Πουτιν αντικατοπτριζει τη γελοιότητα και των δυο παραφρονων κτηνών που συμμετείχαν αλλά και των "λαων τους". Κατα τα άλλα, οπως ακριβως τα λεω, τα καλα τα φιλαρακια παίζουνε πεντόβολα με το αίμα του κοσμάκη. Και ο κοσμακης "αναλύει" και ψαχνει να βρει τι και πως την ώρα που οι 3-4 "μεγάλοι" παιζουν ΑΚΡΙΒΩΣ το ιδιο παιγνιδι με τους ιδιους ακριβως σκοπούς.
Λέγαμε κάποιοι στο twitter για συγκυβέρνηση ΝΔ με την όποια αντιπολίτευση στην Ελλάδα αλλά τελικά μετά απο πολύ έρευνα, διάβασμα και μελέτη επικαιρότητας μπορω με βεβαιότητα να πω οτι αυτό αφορά σχεδόν όλες τις ανεπτυγμένες χώρες. Μια ψευδαίσθηση δημοκρατίας, στάχτη εκλογών και ελευθερίας, μπόλικη διαφήμιση και πλύση εγκεφάλου με χρήμα και καπιταλιστικές ανέσεις σε εξωτικές οάσεις με άπειρα υλικά αγαθά και κυρίως με την χρήση των social και την βοήθεια της AI (πλέον) δεν υπάρχουν πια πολλά κόμματα αλλά σχεδόν ένα με διαφορετικές εκφράσεις των ίδιων συμφερόντων και με διάφορα χρώματα... Αριστερά δεν υπάρχει τα τελευταία χρόνια πουθενά, μην ψάχνετε, έχει ξεπουληθεί. Ο πλανήτης βαδίζει με τρομερή ταχύτητα στην υπέρβαση κάποιων κόκκινων γραμμών που θα επισπεύσουν την καταστροφή και κανείς δεν ασχολείται πιά. Λυπάμαι θα σας το ξαναπώ έτσι ωμά αλλά ακόμα και αν με ένα "θαύμα" ελευθερωνόταν σήμερα η Παλαιστίνη...τα πεινασμένα παιδιά δεν θα σωζόντουσαν...μια παράταση μερικών χρονων θα έπαιρναν γιατί σε 25 το πολύ χρόνια δεν θα υπάρχουμε στον πλανήτη... Ειρωνία ε;
συμβαίνει εδώ και λίγα χρόνια, μα ως συνήθως οι ημεδαποί/ες δεν "βλέπουν" εύκολα εκτός συνόρων. Ήταν και είναι η πολιτική γραμμή του ΕΛΚ και σε κάθε ευκαιρία την εφαρμόζουν σε όλη την Ευρώπη.
Δεν πιστεύω πως θα εξαφανιστούμε σε 25 χρόνια, αλλά θα έχουν αλλάξει πάρα πολύ προς το χειρότερο οι συνθήκες διαβίωσης
με την αλλαγή του πλανήτη προς τα πίσω λόγω Τραμπ το 25 είναι αισιόδοξο σενάριο....και δεν εννοώ μπουμ και τέρμα, εννοώ μέρη της γης ακατοίκητα και λόγω αυτου μετακίνηση πληθυσμών, πόλεμοι, καταστροφές φυσικές μαζικών εκατοντάδων χιλιάδων νεκρών κλπ...Οι επιστήμονες τα λένε όχι εγω. Ουσιαστικά θα έχει ξεκινήσει μια αντίστροφη μέτρηση και όλα αυτά χωρίς να βάλουμε στην εξίσωση τα πυρηνικά
