Cleaned up on their own territory. UXO are still a danger in other countries, such as Laos.

One of those things that personal attention is required for is helping people find a task that they can do. Having a list of tasks available that someone can read through makes half the journey so much easier.

Often I will leave low-impact work undone, so that someone new can attend to it. The feeling of "I actually did something" is so important for new contibutors.

Surely the era of plastic water bottles should come to an end?

getwiththeprog — Sat, 26 Jul 2025 22:19:59 +0000

Epub is a wrapped HTML

The image sizes can be anything the creator wants.

If you look on some of the big free libraries, you will see that there are many different versions of popular books, all with different sizes.

Debian or Fedora, with KDE or Gnome.

No atomic or immutable.

Keep it simple, keep it mainline, stick with large user-bases where help can be recieved.

Call their bluff and hope they don’t sue

The fact they have not contacted you directly means they have nothing actionable.

They drill into your jaw and screw in a tooth. I don't think it has developed at all.

So you are being offered a job, or a degree which might get you a job? Do you want a job?

getwiththeprog — Wed, 05 Mar 2025 08:05:28 +0000

No, these companies are massively scaled now. The only way you could sell domain names is to run a web-host and then sell domain names combined with other services.

You could pretty easily get a job with an existing registrar though.

Don't wear a mask. Social change is about many caring people coming together to support a worthy cause. Solidarity and visibility are key. The women's rights movement was not organized by cryptographers. Social change does not come from the shadows. Spend your time on simple basic things that support solidarity. Discord, web-pages, Whats App... use it all!

Model you tactics on successful campaigns and people. What does the ACLU use? How about Amnesty International?
