Anti-Trump protesters in the US might look to the Czech Republic: ‘We are an example’


in reply to MicroWave

The great thing about messaging like this is that the party can ignore you forever but now it's your fault for not being more active.

Clearly those in charge just do more than you do. It's not because they're already fortified in their positions and keep pouring hot oil on anyone who puts up a ladder.

Salvadoran President Bukele proposes prisoner swap with Maduro for Venezuelan deportees


Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele proposed carrying out a prisoner swap with Venezuela on Sunday, suggesting he would exchange Venezuelan deportees from the United States his government has kept imprisoned for what he called “political prisoners” in Venezuela.

In a post on the social media platform X, directed at President Nicolás Maduro, Bukele listed off a number of family members of high-level opposition figures in Venezuela, journalists and activists detained during the South American government’s electoral crackdown last year.

in reply to MicroWave

So he’s gonna use Abrego as leverage for an el Salvadoran pow. Well just keep him safe. Still hate Bueller.
in reply to hedhoncho

Abrego is Salvadoran, not Venezuelan. Bukele would be trading the other inmates, who are mostly Venezuelan.
in reply to MicroWave

I've long thought that Salvadorean prisoners should be considered POWs rather than criminals. Through that lense, the confinement of anyone with the enemy "uniform" (tattoos in this case) makes perfect sense. And exchange for other prisoners.

Bukele is just too dumb to understand his own actions. Or dislikes the Geneva convention which would apply if he framed it like that.

That's not what happended.

The Supreme Court refused to prosecute Trump (for a blatantly illegal act) and ruled that he was immune to prosecution for "official acts" which they refused to define.

Then they slow walked the case back to a lower court - deliberately - so the determination was not made until after the election.

Then in a state court, Trump was convicted, but the judge delared there was no penalty "because only a federal court could apply punishment".

Then a couple of days later the DoJ dopped the case because "the president is immune from prosecution".

Doing some surface-level research, I like Adrienne Adams.
The Luigi Mangione fanclub need to get together and back a candidate who isn't ERIC Adams, Cuomo, or any other egotist prick.

From "Blackadder Goes Forth"

Melchett: Now, I've compiled a list of those with security clearance, have you got it Darling?

Darling: Yes sir.

Melchett: Read it please.

Darling: It's top security sir, I think that's all the Captain needs to know.

Melchett: Nonsense! Let's hear the list in full!

Darling: Very well sir. "List of personnel cleared for mission Gainsborough, as dictated by General C. H. Melchett: You and me, Darling, obviously. Field Marshal Haig, Field Marshal Haig's wife, all Field Marshal Haig's wife's friends, their families, their families' servants, their families' servants' tennis partners, and some chap I bumped into the mess the other day called Bernard."

Melchett: So, it's maximum security, is that clear?

Blackadder: Quite so sir, only myself and the rest of the English speaking world is to know.

I hate that I’ve now seen this man’s tattoos and nipple piercings. The internet has ruined our lives.



Häromdagen utsattes Bluesky för en DDOS-attack som gjorde att det i praktiken helt slutade fungera under en timme. Problem kvarstod dock under längre tid.. Om Bluesky hade varit ett decentraliserat socialt nätverk hade det inte blivit så.

What are the "app dock" apps on your phone? Are they FOSS?


Go to your phone homescreen and look at the app dock (the bottom row that contains some apps and stays the same when you switch pages).

Which are yours? Any FOSS apps?

In my case, they are FDroid, Signal, Threema, Firefox and the defaul Samsung camera app. So, 80% FOSS..

Isnt it a crime against humanity (and a typical sign of human trafficking) for them to steal your passport?

I know they might detain and deport you, but they can't steal your passport.



Melting glaciers will harm us all. Yet still we watch, unmoved | Robin McKie


The problems that now afflict attempts to establish a military presence in the far north of Canada and Greenland provide timely warnings about the miseries that lie ahead for the rest of the planet as global warming continues its remorseless spread.

The Arctic has suffered especially early impacts because temperatures here are rising faster than in any other part of our planet. Crucially, this process threatens to trigger even greater climatic mayhem.

Ice is highly effective at reflecting solar radiation back into space, so when the region’s floes and glaciers start to disintegrate and disappear, more and more of the dark soil and ocean that lie below are exposed to sunlight and start to heat up, causing further warming. In effect, humanity is turning up the thermostat that once reflected sunlight and cooled the planet.

They are all innocent if they haven't actually had any due process.

Yes, you're supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. Not, guilty immediately and forever because I say so.

Trump gets the special capitalist treatment from the "justice system".

It's worlds away from what poor and marginalized groups get.
