A white person attends Church or, God forbid, is a Christain, he is obviously a white supremacist, christain nationalist, racist. And yet, politics is not allowed to be preached from the pulpit.
A black person goes to church. Black politicians preach from the pulpit.

I was kind of surprised to see this article on HackerNews, so I thought I'd ask here; how do you handle your dotfiles and do you share them publicly?
My own dotfiles started from those provided by ArcoLinux, with a bunch of changes over the years I had them. Currently installed using Ansible, because that's more sensible than Bash for this imo.
I love dotfiles and I love sharing. But I have this weird feeling that sharing my dotfiles is too intimate and personal.Juha-Matti Santala

_Democrat DECLARES Zohran Mamdani Is The “DEMOCRATIC MESSAGE,” Dems Are Going FULL SOCIALIST_
They denied being "socialists" for more than a century, then they embraced it.
Then also denied being "communists" for the past few decades. But now they're embracing it.
At least now, they're being honest (sort of, anyway.)
What they are is state supremacists (of the totalitarian variety) who, at a minimum, believe they (collectively, of course) have the right to control whatever aspect of anyone's and/or of everyone's life that they decide is "for the general welfare" and/or is "for the greater good" and/or is "for the children" and/or is "to redress past wrongs" (committed by those no longer alive, against those also no longer alive,) regardless of whether or not they will allow you to have nominal rights to liberty and/or nominal title to whatever property.
Note that what nominal ("in name only") rights they will allow is the major issue that divides one state supremacist from another. Of course, in any state supremacist system, all rights are "in name only," because they can, will, and fully intend to, use the power of the state they control to make you do whatever they want—you know, the same state whose courts decide what the laws (and Constitutional clauses) actually mean, and how those laws (and Constitutional clauses) apply in specific cases.

@parker there could be open standards like DKIM and SPF for email that don't reveal personal info, but upstream providers could use to validate traffic from an IP address originated from a human.
there are obvious downsides to this though for anonymous VPN users for example cause it requires some form of KYC and could cause anonymous human traffic to be throttled or blocked more easily, so i think we should proceed carefully with anything like this. there are some obvious potential benefits though in terms of blocking bots

In Latest Empty Promise, Apple To Announce Another $100 Billion Investment In US Manufacturing
The reality is manufacturing takes time to set up and develop. China ws a good place for Apple to assemble their phones. I suppose India was an alternate to hedge their China bet. All is good and everyone is happy. Apple stock is doing well.
Now the rules change. It could take a year to build a new plant, presuming you already have the property and logistics worked out.

_BREAKING: Project Veritas: Whistleblower: Former AG Bill Barr and Media Figure Use Burner Phones to Run Illegal Immigration Visa Fraud Scheme for Elites and Billionaires_
Fake visas for sale...
FTA: Project Veritas on Tuesday released a bombshell story from a whistleblower alleging former US Attorney General Bill Barr along with media figure Armstrong Williams is running an illegal immigration visa fraud scheme for elites and billionaires.
Patrícia Lélis, whistleblower, former Brazilian journalist at Howard Stirk Holdings, who is in hiding abroad, told Project Veritas that she was prosecuted after reporting Bill Barr and Armstrong William to the FBI.
“It is way more easy to defraud the immigration system and the government more than people think. And I have proof of that because that’s what Armstrong [Williams] and [Former Attorney General] Bill Barr does,” she said.
Patrícia Lélis alleges wealthy foreigners are obtaining US visas through sham companies and Bill Barr not only knows about it, he is actively participating in the scheme.

From General Flynn
Senator Tom Cotton is leading an effort to gut the Office of the Director of National Intelligence through his bill S.2202, the so-called “Intelligence Community Efficiency and Effectiveness Act of 2025.”
Don’t be fooled by the name. This bill would strip critical oversight powers from the ODNI and hand them back to agencies like the FBI and NSA, which have repeatedly proven they cannot police themselves.
This is not about efficiency. It’s a power grab designed to derail Director Tulsi Gabbard’s work to uncover what really happened during the Barack Obama years, when false intelligence narratives like Russia-gate were weaponized against President Donald J. Trump.
Cotton’s bill is a direct attack on the one office capable of bringing transparency and accountability to a deeply corrupt intelligence establishment.
At the exact moment Director Gabbard begins investigating key Obama-era officials like Clapper, John Brennan, and Rice, Cotton moves to kneecap her. This is no coincidence. His bill even rewrites job titles and chains of command to subtly but effectively insulate entrenched bureaucracies from oversight.
Cotton tries to sell this as a MAGA-friendly reform by tossing in a redundant DEI ban that Gabbard already implemented on day one. It’s political theater meant to bait conservatives while handing the deep state more control.
S.2202 must be stopped.
I break it all down in my latest piece. Please read it, share it, and if this outrages you like it does me, please speak up.

A council which covers Sir Keir Starmer's constituency is poised to go fully vegan.
Labour-led Camden Council commissioned a report which found adopting plant-based catering in full was in line with the north London authority's "food mission", according to campaign group Plant Based Councils.
The plan means all events and meetings of the council would have "100% plant-based catering" so bacon, sausages, steak, chicken and fish would all be off the menu.
Plant Based Councils hailed a council report supporting the move as a "historic win for climate action, publich health and the community".
