Stop Jailing Those Telling The Truth - Petition - Target: UK Attorney General, Richard Hermer KC (actionnetwork.org)
 

Cressie, Daniel, Lou, Lucia and Roger (the WholeTruthFive) have been sentenced to a combined 21 years in prison, the harshest sentences for peaceful protest in UK history. Their “crime”? Participating in a Zoom call to discuss disruptive protest action against catastrophic new fossil fuel licences.

The UN has already slammed the trial for its persecution and punishment of defendants. At trial, the five weren’t allowed to defend their actions in context of the climate emergency. When they spoke the whole truth to the jury, 4 of the 5 were arrested multiple times in court and jailed.

This isn’t what a fair trial looks like. Sign the petition and demand an end to the imprisonment of peaceful protesters.

X (former Twitter) lost court-cases about shadowbanning after critical post about EU and CSAM (piefed.social)
 

Last year Danny Mekić wrote this article : https://dannymekic.com/202310/undermining-democracy-the-european-commissions-controversial-push-for-digital-surveillance which was published in a newspaper and then the author got shadow-banned on X. Today the same Dutch newspaper reported that Mekić won two court-cases about this.

X is not allowed to shadow-ban users easily the judge said. Only during the court-case X explained why the account of Meki was shadow-banned : He had shared an article about the CSAM law on X. "I still
do not understand why X this only said in the court hall, rather than telling me right away when I
asked about it" Mekić said.

Indeed. Clonezilla is cool but comes with a considerable learning curve and lots of text to read. Rescuezilla, based on Clonezilla, is easier.

Thanks to the tldr devs in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

Well, you know. There is more than one tldr project. Debian repositories offer the Haskell and Python based tldr ones. But, yeah, it is awesome. https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=tldr

Can you insert Lp0 on fire as well ? :) https://en-academic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/7306628

lp0 on fire (aka Printer on Fire) is a semi-obsolete error message still generated on some Unix/Linux operating systems in response to certain types of printer errors. lp0 is the Unix device handle for the first line printer, but the error can be displayed for any printer attached to a Unix/Linux system.

Okay guys, here's your chance! I am in possession of a 15 year old laptop. What Linux OS should I put in it? in c/linux@lemmy.world
[–] piefedderatedd@piefed.social 3 points 1 year ago

Give the number one at Distrowatch https://mxlinux.org a try or Puppy Linux https://puppylinux-woof-ce.github.io/ or https://spirallinux.github.io/ The first and the third are Debian based.

or cult, I don't see difference in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

Upvoted for the good laugh. But needless to say this world needs more Linux users! :)

Your comment suggests that it is pointless to avoid tracking. In 2019 journalist Kashmir Hill tried to live without the tech giants and failed : I Tried to Live Without the Tech Giants. It Was Impossible.

But if you look a bit deeper at this, my conclusion is that it all depends on your needs and your habits. It is quite possible to minimize the amount of tracking that is done.

And doing so makes me feel a bit more relaxed personally about the surveillance capitalism circus and that is well worth it.

Help deciding Os in c/linux@lemmy.ml

My guess is that a 2015 Macbook Air is probably not going to run a MacOS version that is still supported by Apple. That would be yet another reason to simply install Linux. Before you do so you can go for https://rescuezilla.com/ and do disk cloning to an image that you save to some storage like a USB disk. If you do the same after your installing and tweaked Linux installation, you can have the best of both worlds whenever you need it.

What advice can you give to a beginner? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] piefedderatedd@piefed.social 1 points 1 year ago

Depends a bit on what you'd like to achieve. I'd say play around with YunoHost on a VPS to get started and learn more. With YunoHost you will get XMPP and email server after installation, and then you can start installing other YunoHost apps.

I want to bring some attention to Slidge XMPP Bridges in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Looks like a nice project if you manage to run your own gateway. People have been posting about this one on Lemmy before https://lemmy.ml/comment/376398 and maybe the software code author is on Lemmy as well : https://lemmy.ml/post/2045121
