“I have become convinced that Kremlin has made a decision to invade Ukraine later this winter.” (Dec 21, 2021)
@Dmitri Alperovitch: In the last few weeks, I have become increasingly convinced that Kremlin has unfortunately made a decision to invade Ukraine later this winter. While it is still possible for Putin to deescalate, I believe the likelihood is now quite low. Allow me to explain why 🧵

As some are aware, my NAS hates me. Anyway, I ran an update just now and it spat out the following:
Setting up linux-firmware (1.187.27) ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.13.0-30-generic I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/sdb2 I: (UUID=e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f) I: Set the RESUME variable to override this. update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.11.0-27-generic I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/sdb2 I: (UUID=e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f)UUID=e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978fis /swap./dev/sdb2: UUID="e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="329487d0-88c7-4d47-ab82-dc4b80bd3bfe"The full log is below. If I reboot this thing, will it tell me that it cannot find GRUB like the previous installation that shit the bed?
My assumption is that its simply telling me that it's enabled some sort of hibernation and will use the /swap for that.. but I'm totally on edge with this thing. I don't have a lot to set up with the system-side of things, so I put off trying to fix the old installation from the previous post until later.
Anyway, does anything here seem fishy?

Tildes Screenless Day Discussion - March 2022

What is a "Screenless Day"?
Tildes "Screenless Day" is a simple event aimed at encouraging people to take a temporary step away from toxic or consuming aspects of technology and spend their time and energies elsewhere.
When is it?
It takes place over the weekend starting on the first Friday of each month. Participants will choose that Friday, Saturday, or Sunday to take as their screenless day -- whichever works best for their schedule.
Some people might not be able to participate in that window, and that's fine too. They can choose to shift their day earlier or later as needed. It is also completely fine (and encouraged!) to take personal screenless days separate from the event if you like. This thread will be posted the first weekend of each month, but it is open for comments the entire month.
Does it have to be truly "screenless"?
"Screenless" is an ideal, not a mandate. The spirit of the day is to deliberately step away from toxic or consuming aspects of technology, and what that means is different for each person. Thus, it is up to each participant to determine what "screenless" means to them. Some might only choose to not use social media for a day; some might choose to eliminate all "screens" but still use their ereader; some may maintain some screen use but only for necessity (e.g. work; classes; GPS; etc.). Some might get rid of screens entirely, or go fully "unplugged" for the day.
How do I participate?
You do not have to do anything formal at all to participate -- simply take your screenless day in whatever way is best for you!
If you’d like to, use this thread to share plans for your upcoming screenless day or summaries/reflections about it once it’s over.
Can I chat in this thread if I'm not participating?
Yes! The more, the merrier! Discussion from anyone, participant or non-participant alike, is welcome. Though, do understand that it might take a bit longer than normal for some people to respond. :)

Today I was doing some paywall hopping and wondered why there wasn't a 12ft.io bookmarklet to make it a little easier.
So I whipped up this little 5 second bookmarklet for anyone who hasn't bothered to do it themselves yet.
Just make a bookmark with the code snippet below as the URL.
javascript: (() => { window.location.replace("https://12ft.io/" + window.location.href)})();I tried to make a link here that could be dragged and dropped directly into a bookmark bar, but it's disallowed.
