I had probably run the old desktop script, which I know is superseded by the proposed ports.
A new campaign to collect media stories that prejudice & abuse disabled people in one place - the Disability Media Action campaign - is looking for people to submit examples from the news media of such stories.
As always, campaigning on an issue is helped by having a single detailed record, allowing trends to be identified alongside the serial offenders.
If you have examples please contact them.

For any American who is shocked that Trump is abandoning Ukraine:
American voters reelected the president who gave the order to abandon Afghanistan, and let the Taliban reintroduce their religious dictatorship where gays are executed, marital rape is a husband's right, and women are forced to wear burqas, making them unrecognizable in public.
THEN he abandoned Ukraine.
Today I noticed that my seven-year-old @grahamperrin account followed only two accounts:
Oops.
My account there remains very useful, but I shifted the follows to here in beige.party.
@fediboard is any part of FediBoard open source?
Stream of consciousness.
Each day, thousands of thoughts form in the mind, bounce around like bubbles in a stream after heavy rain and then, in a moment, they are gone.

Just read:
https://vivianvoss.net/blog/jails-vs-containers
Biased, missing a bunch of points.
E.g., there are no #FreeBSD jails with a single binary, at least AFAIK, as of now.
The lack of a registry makes jails inconvenient.
And without orchestration, they do not nearly offer the same features for a flexibly scalable platform as, say, #Kubernetes.
The post acknowledges that, sort of.
To gain more convenience, Luca had started pot for managing jails:

That gets you a bit closer to containers.
