#Mistakes Were NOT Made: An Anthem for Justice
To imply otherwise is to give Them the out they are seeking.
Emergency Order Lockdowns (UNconstitutional))… It was not botched… It was not bungled.
It was not a blunder… It was not incompetence. It was not lack of knowledge.
The planning occurred in plain sight. The planning is still occurring in plain sight.

A white Hyundai owner's car alarm woke him up to some black children trying to steal his car. Although they were only 13- and 14-years-old they were themselves driving a stolen car. He drove around the block looking for them, then there was a car chase. He shot 11 times into the back of their car and hit both. One died.
Now the 'vigilante' is going to prison for 56 years and the judge allowed the surviving n-word to read a statement condemning him for "using deadly force against two unarmed teens." The dead boy's parents lamented that their son's life (of crime) was cut short.

I knew this day would eventually come but I hoped none-the-less that it wouldn't.

RIP #FrankCapria. I am not a religious man, hell I'm militant atheist, but if there ever was a Saint among us that walked this Earth it would be #JudgeCapria.

If you've never seen his courtroom videos you need to search for #CaughtInProvidence.

What a kind man, what a kind soul.

The World is now just a little bit darker without him in it.

#RIP.

Thanks to everyone on Mastodon, Twitter/X and YouTube for your suggestions on older hardware to run #Linux. I picked three #ThinkPad laptops to test how old you could go and have a decent experience. With Windows 10 support coming to an end, now is a great time to share alternatives for hardware that has more to give.

Trixie - Another Poettering Fuckfest


Recently upgraded a Debian shell server here from Bookworm to Trixie. This is a warning to those considering this move.

Leonard Poettering has fuxored us once again with systemd-logid. He has decided that rather than maintaining a simple structured list of logged in users in var/run/utmp, he now wants you to talk to sytemd-logind via dbus to get the information.

This turns once simple utilities like who, w, rwhod, mesg, talk, into nightmares of code, if they actually get adapted.

Some, like who, have decided to forgo the dbus/systemd debacle and instead walk /run/systemd/sessions/ directory, open and parse each session file, clearly a more elegant approach than reading a simple file that is a simple array of structures.

Clearly more efficient, NOT! ARRRRGGGHHH!

in reply to Nanook

I found that the source package for systemd-257.7, the one currently shipped with debian, included support for maintaining utmp/wtmp but Debian had not enabled it in the compile. I enabled it, built new systemd packages and installed them, and now things are back to normal. For those who might be in need of this the option you need to enable is =DENABLE_UTMP, this is the meson argument.,

Pentagon seeks $3.5bln to replenish stocks after Israeli war on Iran english.almayadeen.net/news/po…

I could say I casually finished Plutonia but any icon of sin levels are the type of shit that's just not worth going through.
As in, it reminds me of how terrible Doom 2 was and again estrange me from the bulk of mapping influenced by it.

Honorable Exception - Auger:Zenith
It downright surprised me with an intimidating but amicable gimmick, entered with a frown and left with a thought of replaying.

Finished Orthodoxy last week, and while it helps to retain and parse the contents to read it on short bursts, it was really too convenient and I find myself thinking about reading even in the aspects more often left to audio/video.

Gonna have to pay more attention to lognposts here and scavenge old FAQs about what I'm interested/currently playing. Convenience is a killer these days.
