Tbh I think the zine is more likely to get you in trouble. Many states ban any kind of campaigning within a certain distance of a polling place. But I don't think handing out "I Voted" stickers would qualify as campaigning. A zine, on the other hand ..

Victory plan (lemm.ee)
submitted 14 hours ago by mulcahey@lemm.ee to c/electoralism@hexbear.net

I have this weird plan to dissuade fascists from voting. It's totally legal and I kinda think it could work.

  1. we buy rolls of "I Voted" stickers off Amazon

  2. On Election Day, we go to polling places in swing states. Pick a district that's heavily fash, and with long lines.

  3. As people line up outside, go down the line and hand out the stickers. People in line get frustrated by the wait, but they figure "I already have the sticker. I can post on social. Good enough." They go home without voting.

  4. The fascists lose.

I don't think this is totally nuts. And as long as it's just a generic "I Voted" sticker it's totally legal. What do y'all think?

Impeachment proceedings against the French president passed their first round of parliamentary scrutiny Tuesday when the assembly's 22-person committee judged the procedure admissable, voting 12 to 10 in favour...

Macron can count on his centrist Ensemble (Together) coalition and the mainstream right Republicans to vote against...

The Socialists have also announced they will not vote to impeach Macron.

What gives?

So can I get rid of container tabs now

[-] mulcahey@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago

Yeah WTF is this art, this is NOT the way to do it.

Like, even if you don't care about antisemitism and genocide...

The Nazis were not great about privacy

Fun fact about the original Sim City: the lead developer said that they wanted to model real cities in the game, but "we quickly realized there were way too many parking lots in the real world and that our game was going to be really boring if it was proportional in terms of parking lots."

But... Why? Why would they get different restrictions on the basis of operating system?

This is the way.

I've just started using Brave on Linux (distro info at bottom) and I have a question about keyboard shortcuts & how the browser manages active windows, because it seems to be doing something different from my last browser.

I usually use Firefox, and I've set it up so that I can open a new tab with the Mail key on my keyboard. Pressing my Mail key executes this command, opening a new tab.

xdotool getactivewindow key ctrl+t

But now I've switched to Brave browser, and that command no longer works. When I've got Brave open and I press my Mail key, nothing happens.

I've tried alternate commands:

xdotool key ctrl+t

and

xdotool getwindowfocus key ctrl+t

but no result. Does anyone know how to fix? What is Brave doing with its browser tabs/windows?

Thank you!

Sounds like that's in here:

"The test build shows the horizontal tab bar and the sidebar at the same time by default. A click on the new "hide tab strip" button hides the horizontal tab bar so that only the vertical sidebar remains."

Agreed. There's a slight relief here, though: I believe this is the Times Square shuttle train, which only runs back and forth over a few stations and never goes outside. So at least you're not on this train for long and never missing a view

Folks are asking "Why post this here?" I get the question but I think I also get the OP, as a New Yorker who was surprised to see this ad IRL.

Most of our subway ads are for VC-funded Internet darlings (think: mattresses-by-mail, kitschy underwear, online therapy) or for some aspiring blockbuster movie from an Internet giant.

Until I saw this ad, I had never in my life seen a subway ad for a company I actually used, let alone respected.

Seeing this ad in the wild broke my brain. I have advocated for online privacy for over a decade. I have spent so much energy pushing people to use Signal. But I had never before imagined that "online privacy" was a concept that could find an audience in mass marketing.

I don't know if Mullvad will take off. But I know that seeing these ads moved me. I felt like maybe, MAYBE, our movement is breaking through.

For years, I've used a CSS trick to move my window controls (Minimize, Fullscreen, Close) from the Menu Bar into the lower toolbar, right beside my Overflow menu. (I'm on Windows 10, so these are the controls you see in the upper right window)

But suddenly, that doesn't work. My window controls are back up in the Menu Bar. That's unfortunate, because I usually hide my Menu Bar.

Can anyone review my code and tell me what needs to change? Thank you!

Hey, remember that time that reddit released a list of the most "reddit-addicted cities" and the #1 spot was a US Air Force base?

It's ok if you forgot, because reddit quickly took the post down.

Anyway, tell me more about Russians!
