FOSDEM 2026 - FOSDEM 2026 Call for Participation

The propaganda is so wild. When I was younger, they'd lie about things 20-30 years prior, with the assumption that people will have forgotten. Now they are constantly attempting to rewrite history that happened a mere 5 years ago, thinking that they're slick.
To quote Orwell: "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Guten Morgen Zusammen,
sie hat mich kalt erwischt, die Wintererkältung. Nun bleib ich mal schön zuhause diese Woche. Vielleicht kan ich ja trotzdem ein wenig lesen, gute Bücher wären vorhanden! :-)
Schöne gesunde Woche, packt euch gut ein und tut die kalten feuchten Nasen schneuzen, denn auf halbwarme Geschichten sind Schnupfenviren ganz gamsig :-)!
:coffeepot: 😅 🤧

Series D, Episode 02 - Power
TARRANT: Well, that's what your Seska friend did with the hatches. Perhaps she can show us how it's done.
DAYNA: Tarrant, it's serious.
TARRANT: I'm being serious.
[Control room. Tarrant enters, followed by the other two.]

Adding another post. This one is a bit less polished, but I want to get it out. As things get harder for everyone, I'm seeing a greater tendency to want to grasp onto revolutionary fiction such as #Andor. I think there's value in that, but it has to come with an informed critique.
> We are so thirsty for hope that we will drink it up, even when that hope comes from a fiction and the truth behind the hope is poison. In Andor, we see the worst elements sacrifice themselves for some of the best. The revolution goes through a process of purification, the complicated elements weeding themselves out to make room for the simplified good, as the rebellion unifies. In reality, this tends to be the opposite how things actually work.
> [...]
> [The Urban Guerilla movement of the 60's through the 80's] centered militant revolution. In doing so, they omitted or cut themselves off from the logistic support needed to sustain such revolutionary activity. The trauma of carrying out violence further isolated and radicalized them. Lacking infrastructure for trauma healing, their decay escalated and became unrecoverable. Ultimately, their revolutionary movements both emulated and reinforced the status quo they were trying to resist.
> There emerges a strange historical parallel that is difficult to see from within the dominant paradigm. The competitive politics of electoralism derives from heroic competition, where people (typically men) compete (often violently) for control over a territory or people. Thus the insurrectionary enters into the very same competition as a challenger, not against the system of domination but for control over it. The success of the revolution, then, does not abolish the system of violent domination but changes rather replaces its management.
> Many modern anarchists will be quick to point out the disconnect between ends and means. While authoritarian projects often assert that "the ends justify the means," and Andor implies the same, anti-authoritarian projects assert the ends and the means are not only united but are, in fact, the same.
This is still very much something I'm actively editing, but I'd still love feedback to help me refine it to it's final form. Typo catches and clarifying questions welcome.

Series D, Episode 06 - Headhunter
VILA: I am!
SOOLIN: I know.
VILA: Where's Orac? He can run a scan first.
SOOLIN: 'Fraid not, sorry.
AVON: [Who has entered unnoticed and is leaning casually against the doorway.] Why not?
SOOLIN: Orac's in hiding.

Series B, Episode 05 - Pressure Point
AVON: Frankly, I don't see how you can do it without me. Your strongest enemies are going to be the defence computers. I am the only one qualified to tackle them.
BLAKE: Yes, that had occurred to me. You better start getting kitted up. Do you want to tell me why?
