"Ukrainian civilians have nowhere to hide from russia’s terror.
Whether it’s a newborn or an ordinary woman hiding in the hallway of their own apartment, russia does not hesitate to attack any life, deliberately targeting anyone, anywhere, without remorse.
Let #Ukraine protect the lives of innocent civilians"

"For a girl who was voted class president... who was loved by her volleyball teammates, who was a homecoming princess, to have her school experience ruined & the memories of her teenage years forever tainted by adults with an ax to grind is unforgivable..."

"..One way in which young male voters have been misunderstood involves polling responses to the term “feminist.” The American Enterprise Institute’s Survey Center on American Life recently published a survey showing that 31 percent of men under 30 identified as feminists, compared with 55 percent of women under 30..."
Wow, that's very promising and I thought I was very lucky not to have grown up in my parents' generation.
I was seeing those all around the U of T campus and points nearby when I visited the city last week.
I'm wondering if it's clickbait or genuine weirdo stuff

I recently installed #LinuxMint on my laptop. Can anyone point me to a resource that will show me how to restore the scroll arrows to the scrollbars? I tried modifying the various theme files in /usr/share/themes/... to include 'Scrollbar-has-forward/backward stepper true', or whatever the exact syntax is, but no joy. I couldn't find a setting in the GfK4.0 folder so maybe that is the problem. I'm using the cinnamon desktop BTW.
The other issue that I would love to find a solution for is a way to simulate and mouse button press and hold. I seem to remember that you could use 'mousedown' in a config file. It is a big problem for me as my hands don't work and I can't click and drag. If I remember, Microsoft claim a patent on their 'clicklock' feature and so disabled Linux users have to DIY it.
Many thanks

#Crypto #Cryptocurrencies #NorthKorea #CyberSecurity #Hacking: "CoinDesk identified more than a dozen crypto companies that unknowingly hired IT workers from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), including such well-established blockchain projects as Injective, ZeroLend, Fantom, Sushi, Yearn Finance and Cosmos Hub.
The workers used fake IDs, successfully navigated interviews, passed reference checks and presented genuine work histories.
Hiring DPRK workers is against the law in the U.S. and other countries that sanction North Korea. It also presents a security risk: CoinDesk encountered multiple examples of companies hiring DPRK IT workers and subsequently getting hacked.
"Everyone is struggling to filter out these people," said Zaki Manian, a prominent blockchain developer who says he inadvertently hired two DPRK IT workers to help develop the Cosmos Hub blockchain in 2021."

The Israeli military has admitted that secondary facilities at several air bases were damaged following a missile attack from Iran.
Aircraft losses are currently being denied and not confirmed, despite heavy hits to the Tel Nof and Nevatim bases, where fifth-generation F-35I Adir fighters are stationed.

The Washington Post reports that the Russian military advanced into Ukraine in August and September at a pace "not seen since 2022".
268 miles (431 km) were captured, mostly in the area from Bakhmut to Ugledar.
Ukrainian military officials told the publication that despite heavy losses, the Russians have enough forces to continue the offensive and Western aid does not compensate for the lack of weapons.
Such rapid advance is explained by the improved tactics

If only my back was so lucky... it's not. It's on the verge of spasming again.
