@tuxom Same in the Netherland. One completely peaceful protest (extinction rebellion) 1597 arrests. People organizing the protest are beforehand lifted from their bed and arrested. The constitutional right to protest is ignored. #bigoil #extinctionrebellion

Disruptive Climate Protests Spur Police Raids in Germany and the US

We’ve seen similar crackdowns here in the #US., from terrorism charges and the murder of Tortuguita in Atlanta to recent conspiracy charges against climate protestors right here in D.C., a spokesperson for the D.C. chapter of the climate group #ExtinctionRebellion, said.
This backlash isn’t surprising because we pose a threat to the #FossilFuel corporations currently running our politics and economy.

Nazis in 2023: "We should round up trans people and put them in concentration camps!"

Leftists in 2023: "Trans people should stop comparing what's happening them to the Holocaust!"

Does bisexual mean "every other sexual" or "twice per sexual", I can never remember

Looks like .NL has reached a point where it has so much Solar that on sunny days the price goes negative. But not enough grid scale storage, so the sun goes down and we start burning dinosaur farts again.

I was poking around after a few conversations about driving/parking being worse now than pre-covid and it looks like about a quarter of people who’ve had mild covid may be experiencing visuospatial deficits?

@fkamiah17 I'm going to say I'm sorry in advance for adding to your frustration over this increasing wealth gap in the world.

The carbon emissions of the top 1%'ers is obscene & they use 10x the amount of resources. I just can't figure out if they think they'll be able to avoid extreme events

A/UX was a version of Unix written in the late 1980s by Apple that ran on just a few specific Macs, including the SE/30. It was developed in an effort to gain a foothold in the world of institutional UNIX buyers and also US Federal Government-funded hardware purchasing, which required POSIX compliance. System 7 ran in its entirety as a Unix process launched after boot. It's kind of a dead-end evolutionary cousin to OS/X.

You can do

sudo ethtool --identify eth0

to let your Ethernet port flashing its LEDs.

(It only works with the more expensive network chips, not the cheap ones from Realtek for example)
