After a recommendation from Lemmy, I downloaded KDE mobile alongside plasma desktop to see if my touchscreen would work better. This took a little tinkering and figuring out but I really enjoy this interface. ^borrowed and reconfigured fastfetch theme from a Lemmy user (lost access to old account so I can't tag them, sorry ) ^ the slide-up app drawer for KDE Mobile. ^interatellar, gui client for Lemmy. ^Tuba, gui client for Mastodon.

We're so back!

I'm a journalist looking to switch to Graphene for security purposes when i'm traveling but a fair share of my work is on social media (using alterego) and i need to be able to post and chat. Is it even possible on Graphene (via browser or specific app) ? Really new to this, it might defy the purpose.

"Reiche gegen höhere Erbschaftssteuer" translates to "[Katharina] Reiche against higher inheritance tax". However the word "reiche" also means "rich", so out of context one could read it is "Rich against inheritance tax". Someone must have spotted this before posting this as a headline: https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/erbschaftssteuer-reiche-100.html

This is the minister: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katherina_Reiche

German: Äußerungen von Unionsfraktionschef Spahn lösten in der Regierung eine Debatte über die Erbschaftssteuer aus. Nun spricht sich Wirtschaftsministerin Reiche deutlich gegen eine Erhöhung aus. Höhere Steuern nennt sie "Gift".

English (deepl): Comments made by Union faction leader Spahn sparked a debate within the government about inheritance tax. Now, Economics Minister Reiche has spoken out clearly against an increase. She calls higher taxes ‘poison’.

When federal agents armed with a search warrant showed up at John R. Bolton’s home outside Washington at dawn on Friday, it was a display of one of the government’s most intimidating powers, in this case deployed against a fierce and high-profile critic of President Trump.

It is not yet clear what evidence the Justice Department cited in convincing a federal judge to sign off on the search warrant, or what culpability Mr. Bolton might have in an on-and-off investigation into whether he mishandled classified information dating back to when he served as Mr. Trump’s national security adviser during the president’s first term.

But the episode illustrated how Mr. Trump’s campaign of retribution has undercut the principle that law enforcement should keep a substantial distance from politics, stoking questions about whether even legitimate investigations are colored by the president’s insistence on putting his perceived enemies through the same treatment he faced as a target of multiple inquiries.

During the time Mr. Bolton worked in the first Trump administration, he helped put together plans that led to Mr. Trump ordering the killing of a top Iranian general. Because of Mr. Bolton’s role in those plans, there was intelligence showing that the Iranians wanted to kill him. To protect Mr. Bolton, the federal government provided him with a security detail throughout the Biden administration.

But just a day after being sworn in, Mr. Trump stripped Mr. Bolton of his security detail.

Mr. Trump’s retribution campaign has long focused on putting his perceived enemies through what he believes he unfairly endured as he was investigated, first by a special counsel during his first term and later by federal and state prosecutors during the Biden administration. In some ways, the search of Mr. Bolton’s home mirrors the F.B.I.’s 2022 search of Mr. Trump’s Florida home and private club, Mar-a-Lago, to retrieve classified documents he had kept and refused to return after leaving office.

Forgive me if I'm a bit stupid but I can't seem to add a new search engine on Vanadium. My default search engine right now is an instance of SearXNG but I can't seem to connect to it I always get a connection error when searching. Which is kinda weird since baresearch.org works fine on my laptop. It also worked fine on my phone until about a day ago. I wanted to change it and add another one (mojeek), I don't like the other options provided. Online it says to go to settings then search engine and you should be able to do it there but I'm not seeing the option. Has it moved? Is it not possible?

I followed your antics since ~2015. You were a fucking idiot, but you were OUR fucking idiot. Most of your fans resigned to the likelihood that you weren't long for this earth a while ago, and we knew the inevitable was coming. I only wish you had better role models in your life, maybe this could have been avoided. Then again you were a stubborn dumb idiot, so maybe not.

RIP. We lost a real one. Fuck this gay earth.

BETTER NOT SHRED IT UP IN HEAVEN, BOY.
