Thunderbird for Android is go – at least the beta is
A traditional-style rich email client – but for tabletsLiam Proven (The Register)
#Russia military channel responds to one overzealous reader who already sees Russian flags in Slovyansk with a detailed analysis of #Ukraine fortifications on the #Pokrovsk direction. This is all open-source data built mostly based on satellite images and photos posted by Ukrainian HQ, so no secrets are revealed here. It helps understand that Russian advances in Donbas are not result of Ukraine’s armed forces weakness or collapse, but previously unseen concentration of Russian resources and that they are making these gains at excessive price, which their military experts do understand. The channel posted the photos with a comment “FABs alone don’t win wars” (FAB - glide bomb) and “all that needs to be walked by our infantry, boots on the ground”.
They posted much more, with some commentary in Russian, if you’re interested - I just reposted the high-scale maps:

Yes, and that’s why most of Eastern Europe is now in NATO since 2000’s and exactly why Ukraine also wanted to join.
You are changing the context.
Those are not "Russian threats". We have far passed the point of threats and posturing. Ukraine is at war with Russia, and there are a large number of deaths, injures, acts of crimes, unspeakable suffering and losses.
Th EU, the NATO, the UN - name any other global good-doer organization you like - they are all rotten, compromised, corrupt, reeking of incompetency. You think all those fucking organizations should have resolved this, instead of keep it going, keep it escalating?
Look around you, our entire Civilization is falling apart, and its all due to LEFTIST policies of the last 80 years or so. This is no longer about what country is going to disintegrate next - it is about how much longer our Human Civilization is able to keep the lights ON.
You think Ukraine joining NATO going to solve anything? If you do, let's mute each other because I am pretty tired of reading your nonsense.

Introduction to Linux interfaces for virtual networking | Red Hat Developer [2018-10-22]

I use macvtaps in my homelab for vulnerable VMs because no matter how I set up the bridges or what guide I followed it just broke networking every time on a headless server that's a massive pain to fix.
Wish I knew about macvtaps from the get-go, it was a dead giveaway that bridges are some demonic shit on Linux as every guide was different, and for every guide there was always some people on Reddit saying how it didn't work for them at all.
I haven't found myself missing hard-corpo software in a while but in that moment I really wished I was just using VMware on windows where creating a bridge interface takes one click instead of janky virsh syntax and messing with ifconfig etc.
Forgotten generation: After one year of conflict, the IRC warns of the life-long impacts for Gaza’s children
- About 17,000 children are estimated to be unaccompanied or separated from parents and caregivers. The IRC thinks this figure could be three times as high (51,000).
- Frequent Israeli evacuation orders, detentions, and attacks have contributed to more families being separated in Gaza over the past few months.
- Some children have been found living alone in hospitals.
- Unaccompanied and separated children face high risks of child labor, exploitation, neglect, starvation, and long-term mental health impacts.
- Every child, parent, and caregiver in Gaza is experiencing trauma.
- IRC teams in Gaza are seeing increased rates of severe and acute malnutrition in children under five.
- Children in Gaza have now missed one year of education because of the collapse of the education destruction of school buildings caused by Israeli bombardment.
Threads is working on a community groups feature
The ‘Loops’ feature may help users follow and engage with specific topics, similar to X’s Communities or subreddits.
I'm trying to search through ancient #Facebook #OpenSource code for a specific implementation detail which they didn't care to document.
But now #Microsoft who owns #GitHub tells me that they can't have me waste their precious resources by using their magnificent search function and rate-limited me.
I'm supposed to sit back, take a break and return in an hour.
#Enshittification continues.
#Software developers should probably stop relying on GitHub.
This specific eco system is probably going to collapse soon, like everything that capitalists touch.

Intel Revs Linux Driver Patches To Fend Off PCIe Thermal Issues Via Bandwidth Reduction
Originally published last summer were patches from Intel for the Linux kernel to introduce a PCI Express bandwidth controller Linux driver to provide a PCIe cooling mechanism via bandwidth reduction to devices in order to prevent thermal issues. One year later this driver continues to be worked on and today brought the eighth iteration of these patches...

On Watch by John E Marriott (Canada)
The winner of the animal portraits category frames a lynx resting, with its fully grown young sheltering from the cold wind behind it.
With climate change reducing snow coverage, giving other predators more opportunities to hunt hares, hare populations may decline, in turn affecting the lynx population

in reply to lproven • • •I signed up for the beta. I've used TB as my desktop client since god was a boy and I'm hoping TB for Android will gradually get more like it.
I played around with K9 before, but ultimately settled on AquaMail, which I've used on Android for a good few years now.
I'm really trying to like the TB beta but I still much prefer the AquaMail UI. I have it set up so the main window is like two of the three panes of the TB desktop setup - folders on the left, message list for the selected folder on the right.
You can't currently emulate this on TB beta (AFAIAA) Because even with the folder list open, you can only display one account at a time (plus the unified inbox, if enabled).
