Can private citizens attack Russia without triggering an all-out NATO-Russia war?

—Democracy doesn't work!

—Yes it does.

breaks the democracy

—See? Democracy doesn't work.

Really, those two empires can't fail soon enough.

Who is funding HTS?

[-] etuomaala@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 days ago

Oh yeah absolutely. I think it's just hard for people to remember, but dictatorships used to transition to democracies all the time.

I do wonder, though, if it has happened to a country with so many foreign actors involved.

I did a cursory web search for DAANES and came up with nothing. What do you mean by it?

Well, yeah, things are different in Germany than in the States. For one thing, there's proportional representation.

But, and I know this is unlikely, this time could be different. Trump actually got the popular vote. Not by much, but he did get it. It is physically possible for it to happen in Germany, and Europe is not ready for it.

Basically, people would be voting for Musk lol. I mean haven't you heard that he is the genius who designed all of spaceX's rockets and all of tesla's cars and factories? Who wouldn't want somebody like that running their government? (with tremendous amounts of sarcasm)

I mean I like to think that Europeans are less gullible than Americans. IDK, are they less gullible than Americans? 'Cause if not, then yeah, it could happen. Barely.

Man, I don't care how female, lesbian, or interracial anybody at the AfD is. They're a bunch of Putin dick riders. Their private lives don't enter into it.

(Incidentally, people like Musk and Trump love to question the credentials of politicians sharing the exact same attributes that this time around Musk has decided to praise. So, Musk, are they incompetent diversity hires, or are they "proof" that the party isn't racist? They can't be both!)

Well, thanks, fwiw. Now, the only way for me to check the quotations first hand is to give money to the idiots who printed it lol. Ausgezeichnet. I checked the Internet Archive. They just show the same opening paragraph.

I'm having trouble finding the original op-ed. Could somebody provide a link?

In the image, these are not tabs. These are firefox windows, being rendered as tabs (and as stacks) by sway.

I just switched to sway, and found that browser tabs no longer make sense. They were designed in the UI dark ages to make up for how terrible Windows XP's WM was. Now, though, sway can do tabs just as well as firefox can, and sometimes, even better. It is better to unify the management of all windows under a single WM, rather than this ad hoc mixture of the real, global WM, and a fake firefox-only (or terminal-only) WM. That way, all windows are managed with a single set of keyboard shortcuts.

I also found firefox's toolbar to be way too thick.

So, I used userChrome.css to hide the tab bar and adjust the toolbar's height:

/* Hide the tab bar. */
#TabsToolbar {
    visibility: collapse !important;
}

/* Adjust the toolbar height. */
#urlbar-container {
    --urlbar-container-height: var(--tbh) !important;
}
#urlbar {
    --urlbar-toolbar-height: var(--tbh) !important;
    --urlbar-height: var(--tbh) !important;
}
:root {
    --tbh: 26px !important; /* ToolBar Height. Adjust this one. */
    --toolbarbutton-inner-padding: calc((var(--tbh) - 16px)/2) !important;
    --toolbarbutton-outer-padding: 0px !important;
    --toolbar-start-end-padding: 0px !important;
    --urlbar-margin-inline: 0px !important;
}

Put this file at <profile root>/chrome/userChrome.css. You'll probably have to make the chrome directory. Then, in about:config, set toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true, to get firefox to read userChrome.css. Oh, and don't forget to tell firefox to open new pages in new windows instead of new tabs.

I have also found it useful to map the firefox command to Super-C, so that I can make a new firefox window without needing to have some other firefox window already in focus.

I have also found it useful to keep an empty firefox window open in some unused workspace on its own, so that after I close what I didn't realise was the last open firefox window, firefox does not close entirely.

This is (another!!) one of Drew Devault's projects. Like harelang, it would be a gigantic simplification of existing software. And yes, it is written in harelang.

It was originally a test to see whether harelang could be used for OS development. (It can.)

This one isn't in plaintext this time. I learned from last time that there are issues displaying plaintext on a phone, where there isn't any guarantee of 80 available columns. I thought that wasn't a tall order, but it turns out, it is.

Also, I really wanted links.

And I'm sorry I was so late in posting this. I have trouble finishing things...
