I decided to put Gentoo Linux on my 2013 Chromebook Pixel with MrChromebox.tech to replace the GalliumOS install that is now no longer maintained.

GalliumOS is basically an old version of Ubuntu with XFCE and some x86 Chromebook tweaks. I copied the scripts and systemd service file that enable zram (swap to compressed RAM instead of disk) with LZ4 compression. With that enabled, I can build packages with 2 concurrent jobs in 4GB RAM with Gentoo's KDE desktop running!

@Mastodon I don't understand why I'm able to login on one browser (Brave) and not another.

I even changed my password here hoping that it would get accepted on the other browser. No. And again, I've not received the reset email. I DID, however, receive an email advising me of the password change.

Ich hatte vorhin geschrieben, dass mir die Affäre um Stefan Gelbhaar, den RBB und die fiktive „Anne K.“ nicht rund erscheint. Dass mir das Verhalten des RBB nicht nachvollziehbar erscheint.

“Consider Tesla. Imagine that it pays no corporate or carbon tax in the US but makes 5% of its sales in Britain. The UK Treasury would calculate what Tesla should have paid in the US if British tax law applied there and collect 5% of that amount. Similarly, Britain would step in to tax Elon Musk proportionally to the amount of his wealth that originates from the UK (which, since his fortune is mainly in Tesla stock, can be estimated to be about 5%).”

I’ve been thinking about this anonymously produced RPG for practicing anti-authoritarian tactics since I ran into it last week.
