Signing a petition will do nothing, won't it? Is the IA.BAK project still working after its shutdown?
You need three ingredients to understand them.
- "Being different is shameful."
- "My family is the reflect of myself."
- "My child might join them if we allow them to exist."
Bam. They're protecting themselves by oppressing queer people.
Quantum electrodynamics in a nutshell
Yep, we agree. In Western Europe I was thinking of Portugal and Eastern Europe the Baltics etc.
E: and the current ones are Russia and Belarus
The last dictatorship in Western Europe was 50 years ago. Eastern Europe was between 35 years ago and today.
Good point.
Well, if they tell the truth then it's fine. But no way to know what they do with this redirect (to my knowledge at least).
What's your feeling on that? Happy because less generational wealth or mad because he is against transparency?
And they reported that it was to gather the referral when going to websites, which constitutes their income. But it's closed source so we don't know. It could be tracking and selling the data.
Sorry, it is go.bsky*app. I corrected my comment!
I'd say that we're sure it will. It has begun making the same shady practices like redirecting all out going links through go.bsky*app 🙄
Maybe you've never seen a male minion yet.
Well, often you have chores that you have been putting off and they're becoming more and more urgent...
I guess she died at 3 and the mother was mourning?

In Waloon they are called "vôtes". Traditionally they are thicker with raisins in them. When made with buckwheat, they are called "boûketes".
I was thinking about that. I guess the objective of brands is to be so normalized that people don't even think about it. Of course they're driking coffee at that place. Of course you'll go there to chit-chat with your friend. Going somewhere else doesn't even cross one's mind.
Ah, true that. It's not an ad then and that's even worse... Are corporations that engrained into people's minds that when they think of drinking a coffee in a café, it's necessarily that brand? Their marketing dept did their job well.
No, it's the coffee brand they're drinking.
I love Litterbox! But I hate ads. Sad that corporate consumption needs to infiltrate nice things for authors to survive.
Edit: it's not even an ad, it's worse! That chain of cafés is just a cultural norm now. That's depressing.
There's no real link with French. She's just calling him a sweet boy in proper english I guess.
Donald Trump inauguration: discussion thread
I thought there could be a sort of megathread about the inauguration of Trump. I'm watching the official livestream here:
Pas de condamnation de Le Pen pour torture ?
Salut tout le monde ! Avec la mort de Le Pen, beaucoup de gens reparlent de son usage de la torture en Algérie. Beaucoup d'encre a coulé sur les accusations à son encontre et ses actions en justice pour diffamation. Mais a-t-il été lui-même poursuivi ou inquiété à ce sujet ? N'était-ce pas des crimes de guerre ? Pourquoi n'a-t-il jamais été arrêté ?
Is Magic Earth spyware?
I have been looking for alternative to Google products, including Google Maps and Waze. The best I've found is Organic Maps and OsmAnd. But I'm missing two features: public transport routes and live trafic.
For the latter point, I have used Magic Earth which uses OSM. But the app itself is not FOSS.
Does anyone know what their business model is? They don't charge for the app or service and the privacy policy does not seem like they commercialize data... What is their deal as a company?
Website link to home screen independent from browser
Hi everyone. You can easily add a website shortcut to the home screen through a browser ("add to home screen"). However, if I change browser or if I need to clear the browser data, these links disappear. Maybe I'm using too unstable of a browser, but I'm tired of having to recreate my shortcuts.
Is there any way of adding a website shortcut to the home screen in a browser-agnostic way?
Alternative to Google's Enhanced Location?
cross-posted from: https://feddit.nl/post/549047
Assisted GNSS is pretty handy. My phones gets my approximate location very fast. If I want to plan a route from where I am, I don't have to wait a couple minutes for the GNSS signal to be received (if I'm in a location where I can receive it).
But obviously, waiting a couple minutes before starting a journey is acceptable to avoid being tracked by Google, so I disabled the Enhanced Location mode on my Android phone.
Is there a private alternative for A-GNSS?
