“Huddling near friends Friday, the girl felt tears start. Children near her were crying, too. One friend started sobbing so hard her nose bled, the girl said. “Everyone was so scared,” the 10-year-old said, “because we didn’t know if it was a shooter or the immigration police.””

Deal reached to allow displaced Palestinians to return to northern Gaza, says Qatar
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said on Saturday that displaced Palestinians would not be allowed to return to their homes in northern Gaza until the civilian hostage Arbel Yehoud was released by Hamas.Gavin Blackburn (Euronews.com)
Disinfo agents on social media successfully told progressives, “A vote for Democrats is a vote for Palestinian genocide—so stay home in protest.”
During his last week in office, Biden helped negotiate a ceasefire.
And now Trump is calling for literal ethnic cleaning of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.
You never should have stayed home.
Did Biden do unbelievably shitty things in office? Yeah.
But sometimes you can’t pick between the good and the bad.
Sometimes you have to pick between less bad and pure evil.

According to Wikipedia:
"A polymath or polyhistor is an individual whose knowledge spans many different subjects, known to draw on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific problems."
With my many years and experiences I believe I fit this description.

All right. Got most of my #docker containers moved over to #proxmox. I had to rebuild my Homarr page, but that's fine. I've made some progress on the reverse proxy, by running #haproxy on #pfsense. Setup the proxmox backups.
I still have to configure a container, and get the rest of the reverse proxy to work. I'd also like to setup local DNS
Separately, #reolink is pissing me the fuck off.

A stylized illustration depicts a person wearing a large, black VR headset. The headset's screen shows a futuristic cityscape at night, filled with tall, brightly lit buildings. The person's face is partially visible, and they appear calm. The background is an orange-hued sunset sky above a sprawling futuristic city with tall, angular buildings and flying vehicles.

"Arbeit macht frei" - work makes one free, was a cynical welcome at the Auschwitz I camp. SS guards often told prisoners of #Auschwitz that the only way out from the camp was through the chimney of the crematorium.

In every generation, there are young people who take up the task of revolution directly, intensely, and most seriously.
The Brigade was quite clear in their aims; they sought to attack property, not people, and their targets included banks, fascist embassies, and the homes of Conservative MP’s, including then Home Secretary Robert Carr, courts and, as depicted in the film Misbehaviour, a BBC Outside Broadcast van at the 1970 Miss World event.

Got tired of drilling CW in MorseMachine, Morsle, and Morse code for Android, and listened in a few times today to see whether I can copy off the air yet.
During the afternoon on 20m, Winter Field Day was in full swing and every CQ I could hear was too fast for me to copy anything after "CQ". (Well, I did copy what sounded like "FDW9" at one point which I assume was related to field day activities) After dark, 80m had some folks with a more leisurely pace. However, signals fading in and out meant that I still had trouble copying call signs. I could at least recognize more characters even if I couldn't copy enough to understand...
I don't have a key yet, so I don't have to feel bad about not transmitting. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it, for a while! 😀
Microsoft Windows+Office for $55?

Usually cheap MSFT license offers are a sign of Linux gains somewhere but I'm not seeing it this time
LibreOffice for Steam OS is taking off?
They're selling at a loss because it makes you train their "AI"?
There's some market share number they need to tweak upward to keep some stock analyst happy?

$55 for a lifetime license to Microsoft Office
One price, two upgrades, no subscriptionsSponsored by StackCommerce (Mashable)
This deal is a bit suspect.
1) It's wrapped in affiliate links.
2) Despite being called a "lifetime license" it appears to be tied to Office 2021. It says updates are included but I assume that's only minor/security updates (after all, Office 2024 is already out.)
3) Buried on the page "IMPORTANT: This licensing type will be connected with your actual device NOT your account."
It's still not a bad deal, but very misleading. I suspect it's about getting people to migrate to Win 11.

tonight's wikipedia rabbit hole has led me to: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/He_Jiank…
which has the absolutely *fascinating* property of containing sentences starting with things like "He became widely known" and "He was listed in", in which you can't tell if "He" is an English pronoun or a Chinese name, because either parse results in exactly the same meaning
