The one that is in the post linked by OP is just a screenshot of a twitter post

Here’s an article on The Register. I haven’t read through all of this just yet, but this might give you a pretty decent picture:

This is what I can find on their website. Last updated April 22, 2026.

Seems like Russia is mostly blocked and China is fully blocked.

This guide lists different settings and methods to connect to Mullvad VPN from networks and countries where connecting to a VPN is difficult. This includes countries such as China, Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan.

But Russia, China, and Iran are listed here. So maybe works? I’m confused

And the Fediverse doesn’t have all of those already?

These are inescapable in the modern age internet unfortunately, however the decentralisation of the Fediverse should help in alleviating those symptoms of an open platform.

Nice recommendation with Droid-ify! I completely forgot about this, installing on my phone now too

More users provides more diversity - More diversity provides the potential for more niche interests to arise - More active niche communities provides more reasons for existing users to stay - More active users staying on the platform inevitably attracts more new users.

Have a look on F-Droid, there’s a whole heap of open source games on there

More users to accommodate more active niche communities

A password manager?

HDR is in, has been in KDE and Gnome for a while now.

Fair enough on TrackPad scroll speed.

Other than that though, what other features do you believe Gnome is missing?

Depends on the cert and the environment you are already in.

For example, I’m an IT Consultant, we kind of rely on ‘professional certs’ to get work at client projects, especially if a project is covering specific niches and we have consultants that have certifications within those niches.

Also, many of the more mainline certs can definitely be worth getting (especially in the early career stages), as a quick example some of the CompTIA certs like Networking+ (a colleague got his job with us solely with that cert btw)

And here’s the Bugzilla issue link, also found in above link:

Last time I tried Bluesky was the start of this year, with a week had like 20 bot accounts following me, maybe 1 real person

Did you just fantasize about a veteran being into you as an 11yr old, now you have it stuck in your head that they were a pedo because of… Why exactly?

Am I reading this wrong?

Yes of course, but the crime was still committed and she had full capability of committing the crime regardless of how it ended up for her. The question wasn’t “why are males more successful at committing a crime”, although this is where my mind went as well.

The cultural reason was what I was thinking too.

At first, physical capability popped into my mind as well, however can a woman not steal a loaf of bread? Or grab a knife and stab someone, or grab a gun and pull the trigger?

Economically able to could also lead into the gender imbalance in executive positions.

However I would like to hear the person I replied to’s reasoning instead of us guessing or putting answers in their mouth so to speak, as ‘more capable of doing so’ doesn’t really lend much to the conversation.

How so?

The continuous improvement is what I remember the most! At least how I remember the internet of old, it was like a constant stream of something new, from random funny links of random sites, to big new major projects surfacing. It was cool

I smoked weed in high school, a fair bit lol, I was definitely considered one of the “stoner kids” of the school.

In my 20’s I stopped for the most part (only a joint here or there, maybe 2 or 3 times max per year), many of the kids I went to school with that were all anti drugs and anti drinking as kids became hard drug addicts in their 20’s.

Now in my 30’s I smoke again, much easier now that I can comfortably afford this habit

Oysters did this for me. Hated them growing up, even into my early adult years I still hated Oysters. The texture and taste just did not agree with me.

Then one Friday I had to go away for work for the weekend, I went to the local pub where I was staying for dinner, and the chef came out with like 6 Oysters for free, I tried one, then demolished the other 5, ended up ordering a dozen and demolished those. Been hooked on Oysters ever since
