So...as I'm not a big fan of the new Masto looks, I've tweaked it a bit with Stylus (an open source browser extension).
I've mainly changed the colors back to the previous dark theme that I found better for my eyes, and I've tweaked a little the content warning/filters notifications to make it less bulky.
See for yourself if you're interested. ( It's most probably not the cleanest code you've ever seen, but I don't care, it's working for what I wanted to do ;)

The Failure of Liberal Zionism
By David Klion

"Israel and its left-wing critics may be diametrically opposed in their goals, but they agree on some basic facts: that Israel is ruthlessly pursuing the destruction of the Palestinians of Gaza, with no regard for moral niceties or int'l law, and with the unapologetic belief that Jewish life is sacrosanct and Arab life is worthless."

Thanks! Though I'm not a fan of the specific gradients, they're distinct now and I can work with that :D

Wimbledon goes electric.

Last month, I published a story about tennis embracing the electronic line calling system — and all of the data, sports betting, and financial implications that come with it. Wimbledon, the most prestigious of the Grand Slams, just announced it will get rid of human line judges at next year’s tournament. At this point, the ELC takeover is inevitable.

funny how liberal Americans suddenly think #ShiTwitter is a nazi ahithole, something we have been saying since the Apartheid child purchased it.

My favorite operating system is Fedora:

-A free and open-source operating system.

-The latest versions of popular open-source software.

-A large and active community of developers and users.

-A well-tested and reliable operating system.

-A strong focus on secure practices.

"Drie weken geleden maakte de Leidse universiteitsbibliotheek bekend dat ze 400.000 buitenlandse proefschriften zou gaan vernietigen, maar dinsdag werd duidelijk dat er een streep gaat door dit voornemen. The @internetarchive neemt de dissertaties over en zal ze digitaliseren en online beschikbaar maken."

Jamie Dimon, $JPM, described the Buffett Rule as a good idea for clamping down on US debt, per YF.

It says richer households shouldn't pay taxes on a smaller share of income than middle-class ones.

#Italy is losing its mind because of #copyright: it just made its awful #PiracyShield even worse - walledculture.org/italy-is-los… new threat to VPNs and DNS worldwide

Glyn Moody reshared this.

in reply to Glyn Moody

(Italian here) is not because of copyright but because of soccer. Soccer league earnings dropped in the last decade (or more), basically nobody want to pay an outrageous amount of money to watch soccer, so people in Italy are installing devices to circumvent the pay per view.

But "copyright" is a trojan horse for soccer.

in reply to Luigi Rosa

@lrosa yes, you're right of course, but copyright is the weapon that is wielded by the football industry. that's the problem: the fact that it can - and is - used in this way. Italy has lost its mind in the sense that the government is trying to "protect" copyright with these insane measures...
in reply to Glyn Moody

of course you are right. Even worse, this could be a method to block websites/IP without going in front of a Judge. ISPs are fighting this, but they'll have few chances to win because in Italy soccer is maybe more powerful than the church in terms of political influence.
