4 years of war in Ukraine
Show content
Today begins year 5 of Russia's full scale aggression against Ukraine and it will soon be 12 years since Russia first started this war by illegally occupying and then annexing Crimea.

Fuck Putin, fuck everyone who supported this invasion then, and especially fuck those who through greed, cowardice, or direct allegiance maintain Putin in power today: Kim, Fico, Orban, Xi, Trump.

Ukraine is the only power directly opposing Putin today, which is why I will continue to support it until Putin is defeated, until Russia restores the borders in their 1991 configuration and commits to pay reparations for all the grievous damage it's done and continues to do. Glory to Ukrainians and everyone fighting on their side -- may we all have their resolve and courage when it's time to take arms to defend our homes against a large and bloodthirsty neighbour who comes to pillage and kill.

@krzk Not a joke -- I really expect the answer to boil down to that.

@krzk It being PyTorch, I expect the answer will be "we asked an AI agent to put together a database of addresses that would be interested in receiving PyTorch announcements."

@stgraber Can you please send your traceroute6 to helpdesk@kernel.org? I don't see any problems, so it must be something unique to your path.

When YouTube says 'this is not available in your country' it should also list the countries where it *is* available, so I know which one to set my VPN to.

@mpdesouza I just need to complete a few steps that would let maintainers "take" the series as opposed to just review it. Not far now, I just need to a) recover from being sick, b) stop dealing with failing hardware. ;)

Gemini, please convert this response into a politely worded email:

Hi:

Your vulnerability report is stupid. You have no idea what you're talking about, or you're hoping that nobody actually checks your findings. Unfortunately for me, I did check your findings and I will never get these 20 minutes of my life back. Everyone is dumber as a result of your report. Please do not contact us again.

@phf kernel.org is managed by the Linux Foundation, but it's a separate legal entity. It didn't use to be managed by LF -- that changed in 2011 when the existing board of directors hired LF to manage the organization directly.

@jwildeboer ah, nice. Looks like that's an EU brand. I've been looking at some Brother embroidery machines to make scout patches, but haven't decided yet. :)

Every "why is English like that" question is answered simply by stating the obvious fact: modern English is an islander creole language that layers many waves of colonizations.
