> The 4th and final step of this roadmap will be dedicated to the development of a new, highly anticipated feature : live peer-to-peer video streaming. We ran some tests, we know that this is a big undertaking, but we are confident that we can do it.
Wooooo!
That's contingent on PeerTube raising 60000 EUR.
I haven't yet donated to PeerTube, and I probably will never use this feature as a producer, but I think this feature would be amazing to have on a free software video distribution platform, and if it'll make even one more person donate, I'm saying it right now:
I will donate 200 EUR to PeerTube right now, to push it an inch closer toward this goal.

> if there are no obvious inaccuracies that do not mean it's not propaganda
You might say it's biased reporting. But you can't equate it to Fox News or Russia Today who routinely publish *completely* invented stories only to incite hatred.
Someone from Aginskoe, a village/town in Russia near Mongolian border, rearranged rocks making a large hill-side locality name into "PUTIN THIEF" (ПУТИН ВОР). 😂
Local media shyly redacted the second word while reporting the story. They might be actually concerned with criminal liability imposed by the "offending the authorities" law, as people have been arrested for merely holding banners with "PUDDING LOR" written (nonsense text, just sounds similar) 😂

Just got another email from a blind user of SourceHut thanking me for caring about accessibility in my work. And honestly, it wasn't difficult. I don't understand why my peers in web development seemingly couldn't give a rat's ass about accessibility. Maybe because at their level of complexity, to them "accessibility" means "a shitload of aira tags and a ton of work", whereas at my level of complexity it means "just keep it simple and don't do anything particularly stupid"
And it would make sense to point out specific inaccuracies in Meduza article rather than using a blanket "they're Fox News" ban...
Other linguistic experts in Russia tend to agree with the Meduza assessment:
http://rusexpert.ru/news/mdz-tkd-pj-btya-kpty-kmdz-ttyu-kmmtit-chl-gldi-pf-i-ti-.html
This article provides more details on how the Roskomnadzor experts are actually recruited, from various pseudo-scientific NGOs, like HIV-deniers etc.
This one is absolutely awesome 😂
"A court has rule Ivan Barbakov guilty of inciting hatred towards Christianity (!) as he published video of an Orthodox priest singing a gangster song"
В ноябре Калининский районный суд Санкт-Петербурга признал Ивана Барбакова виновным в разжигании ненависти к христианству за то, что он выложил в интернет видео с поющим блатную песню «Мурка» архимандритом Венедиктом (Цирковым).
And, to be honest, completely absurd from legal point of view, since "feeling" is something 100% subjective that you cannot really prove or disprove outside of specific person.
The practice of prosecution of this law in both Poland and Russia was complete joke, with "linguistic experts" assessing whether given statement "offends" abstract "feelings" of abstract "believers".
I had an article somewhere about these "expert commissions" in Russia...
No, I'm just referring to this particular picture. Obviously, it does refer to the "offending of believers' feelings law, which we also have in Poland and which I consider utterly vague and stupid.

> USSR church was not denied but separated from state money
Blowing up churches and mass executions of priests don't seem like mere "separation" to me.
> great part of our people against church
I know and 100% agree, same story in Poland now.
More dark humor from Russia:
"If Gagarin today said: 'Went to space, saw no God'* he would be arrested. However, as a public figure, he might have gotten away with a suspended sentence"
😂
* words attributed to Gagarin by the USSR propaganda in support of the state atheism. State atheism was abandoned in 90's and then effectively replaced by state Orthodox church.
It's not "nuclear power" that is the crisis today - it's the climate change. And if you have a country shutting down zero-emission energy source, saying it will replace it by a 3x more CO2 intensive source (solar) and then replaces it with one that is 30x more intensive (fossil gas) then I say this makes the crisis worse.
Nuclear power plants are not mushrooms that just grow here and there, they are being built as result of particular policy decisions. So looking at which energy source is better based on "how much capacity was installed" is a bit like planting wheat on a field and saying "no rye has grown, so it obviously sucks".
Yes, together with fossil gas plants to make electricity while renewables don't work.
What was exactly the performance of solar power plants back in 1976 when Superphénix was operational? 🤔

Oh someone took the time to write down what I tell people since ages in a very nice way to read and understand:
http://frameworklessmovement.org/
TL;DR: Frameworks come with huge tradeoffs, choose them wisely and if possible avoid them. They build stuff in a very generic way and may develop into a direction that doesn't fit your project at all. Try to stay vanilla, prefer libraries over Frameworks and learn how to code the language, not the framework.
