Always a pleasure to listen to @npub1fdr…lvhs
Even better to hear him quote Mariame Kaba to the crowd at #39c3
Hope is a discipline.

Behold the power of artificial intelligence.
Out of sad habit, I still sometimes right click on images to try reverse image search with Google, forgetting that they killed it.
I was looking for the source of this image I used in an article about the Galaksija computer.
"AI" thinks that I'm in this photo taken in 1984., the photo that literally includes the people in it UNDER THE PHOTO.
It's cool tho, apparently I helped assemble Galaksijas with Voja Antonić in 1984.

I'm now trying to replicate the issue and see if I can improve with adjusting that pot. Recapping definitely did impact it, since previously it would start drifting very quickly

Happy #Marchintosh! This year I'm creating and hosting anti fascist art on my JUPAK network on #GlobalTalk
First up is a MacPaint drawing of partisan fighter Stjepan Filipović shouting "Death to fascism, freedom to the People!" seconds before his execution

The day appropriately ended at the dump. Today we get up again and get to work.

Solidarity with trans folks, undocumented folks, Palestinians, and the disabled, and everyone else in the techno fascists' crosshairs.
Yesterday I went offline and spent the day doing manual labor for my bike coop.
Smrt fašizmu!

I didn't take a lot of photos, but here's a few things I liked.
When I showed up at 9, a seller had a lot of ADB and even M0100 mice for $10! I didn't really need one, but I picked up one M0100 because, why not?
These all went fast.
They also had some reasonably priced ADB keyboards
