hello fedizens, how's your sunday going?

do you have any FOSS (or just free, considering the context) PDF readers and/or editors to recommend for Windows? I used SumatraPDF for years but it became too shitty, so I need an alternative.

thank you in advance!

Upgraded my Haiku to the latest head. Keyboard stopped working after the upgrade under qemu. Looks good tho. Only things missing app-wise are more GTK apps (there are a lot of Qt ones).

Canvassing for Harris/Walz in a red, suburban-rural district in Pennsylvania, some thoughts:

- There are a *lot* of Trump voters in these areas, but more Harris voters or Harris-curious voters than one might think. Dems are *still identifying* these voters through door-knocks and other person-to-person outreach.

- GOP/Trump is almost entirely trying to reach these neighborhoods now via direct mail w/ mixed results. The lit below was tossed into the garbage but wound up in the street.

This is not election skepticism. It is voter suppression. Stop with the white-gloved euphemisms for racism and fascism. #BrokenTimes

This is the same BS tactic they’re using for book bans. Enable random crazies to make complaints that officials are obliged to respond to.

Actually, even though most would erroneously classify me as an #UndecidedVoter because I don't vote, that's not why I won't. It's because I have a homicidal ex and the moment I vote, my voter registration will be public record and he can immediately find out where I am. This is the same reason I use screen name's and/or fake names online. So actually, in some cases, #DomesticViolence is actually PREVENTING people from voting for their own safety. #DV #DomVio #FamilyViolence

The Tildeverse is a minimalistic community-driven Internet experience without the commercial bloatware

For many of us of a particular vintage, the internet blossomed in the ’90s with the invention of the Web and just a few years of development. Back then, we had the convenience of expression on the WWW and the backup of mature services such as IRC fo ...continues

We are living in an age of anger... as Josh Cohen suggests this is a result of a 'malign public care', an environment that thrives on stoking our anger & outrage, with little concern for veracity or justice.

This picture of our society is both distressing & plausible... the Q. is what can we do about it? (media & online regulation feel like attempting to shut the stable door now the horse has bolted)....

I left out the data on trans generational starvation of both Fathers and Mothers. This study is one doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-076…

So it appears UK gov, and some others around the world are deliberately heaping illness on many of the current generation's grandchildren. Sudan, the Middle East, Ukraine, large parts of both Americas.
Just to bail out bankers and big businesses.


This is a weird attempt by the Times editorial page to find a negative in a positive for Harris....
Harris Is Good on Abortion Rights. Now She Needs to Take It to 11. nytimes.com/2024/09/15/opinion…

Richards is the last person I want to hear from on reproductive rights after she sold out in 2009 during the ACA debates.

She should have pressed hard, mounted a campaign from the left to ensure basic reproductive health care like birth control, breast exams, emergency treatment for pregnant women were covered under ACA. Instead she agreed to shut up because they promised her community center funding for Planned Parenthood.

And now women are bleeding out in parking lots. Nope.
