a really good article. well worth the read.

Don’t switch one senile old fuck out with another.

to be fair, Bernie has not lost a single step but, as a pragmatist, I think he would say his most effective position moving forward is in the senate.

surely its obvious by now - “bibi” just wants to solve the starving palestinian kid crisis with american bullets. gotta throw a tantrum so kind old uncle sam will feed more quarters into the genocide machine and keep those pesky Israeli elections at bay.

edit: from the article

US Representative Richie Torres (D-NY) wrote a message to Netanyahu on X, stating “If you are looking to undermine the bipartisanship of the US-Israel relationship, then release a public video attacking the Biden Administration, which, despite hysterical opposition from the far left, has held firm in support of Israel for eight months and counting.

hey, NY… you gonna do anything about this conflicted, homicidal piece of sh*t?

edit 2: regarding my comment on Torres - anyone unable to distinguish between hamas and an 8yo Palestinian kid is not fit for public office. and if they can, but choose violence on the kid, well f*ck them, “progressive” or not. when people show you who they are, believe them.

only lwn can make an otherwise lukewarm mailing list kerfuffle a riveting read. love me some lwn.

pretty sure thats a goat. rugged, contrary and independent. one might even say… the Greatest Of All Time.

indeed! had I not posted this, I would be asking the same question!

so, its quite a bit more mundane than you might have hoped for.

a mix of…

• ~40% locally served internal pages (mostly zabbix, mail/web server monitoring, some development pages, etc).
• ~60% non-local pages - currently lots of retro computing stuff, debian stuff, github (sigh)

the most recent page I opened was an archive.org page on TI-84 firmware disassembly.

I make heavy use of Firefox containers for separation. honestly, Firefox is an absolute workhorse for me. if the Firefox ecosystem were to fall into the void, I would be dead in the water.

frantic ignoring reddit sounds

dishing out the tools to help users take back control of their lIves. hero quality.

61 Firefox windows and 427 tabs (don’t judge, I know I have a problem) and I have no performance complaints - admittedly, not all of them are active/rendering simultaniously, but still…

Firefox (and its forks) have been my go-to for 15 years.

noscript is your web condom. I will not touch a page without it.

I understand. hugs.

But I’ll take Biden over Trump any day, because at least Biden has never incited an insurrection

not trying to be snarky here, but this says it all. this is what late stage capitalism has delivered to us and the world. I have a very hard time seeing how we course correct away from the looming dead end.

donald “I could shoot someone” trump vs joe “nothing will fundamentally change” biden remains a likely species ending proposition.

2.9…

2.99…

2.9999…

israel has become the very definition of a rogue nation.

…exactly what the us wants from its middle east attack dog.

“We’ve also said we don’t want to see a major ground operation in Rafah that would really make it hard for the Israelis to go after Hamas without causing extensive damage and potentially a large number of deaths. We have not seen that yet,” - John Kirby, National Security Council spokesperson

“but we are secretly eagerly awaiting it and already have the popcorn on order!” - also this fucker (probably)

I am beginning to think the lizard people are actually real. please help.

hey now! those arms serve empire. much more profitable than serving food!

the masters of the universe in control of this country care not one fuck about “democracy”. I fear this is how it ends. global disaster capitalism at its finest.

edit: as a point of clarification - the term “masters of the universe” as a metaphor for the excercise of financial power via us political structure goes back to at least the bush jr presidency and their war for oil (and defence industry profiteering). couple that with the past 100+ years of the us military being the enforcement arm of that power structure and we get to this… the us government openly defending and facilitating the obvious slaughter of palestinians in service of the broader hegemony. fucking sickening.
