GrapheneOS developer now seems to be running around on Twitter and threatening people with unspecified "response" when they post any less than ecstatic comments about his project.

Around half year ago I engaged in a discussion with him on Matrix, after which he quite unexpectedly deleted all my comments and kicked me out of the channel.

Today I had the (doubtful) pleasure of blocking him after he came to my DM with a long rant in response to an one-line comment...

Space consumption in my eyes is a far more valid concern for wind and solar than toxic waste is. It is one reason I tend to support nuclear, as I dont like the idea of wind turbines taking over what little space we have.. Solar i dont mind as it mostly tends to take up roof tops so it doesn't tend to consume space we aren't already consuming. but wind turbines tend to take up new land and I dont like that.

По данным испанского судьи, в 2017 году, незадолго до референдума о независимости Каталонии, Россия пообещала направить в регион 10 тысяч солдат и оплатить весь каталонский долг. В посольстве РФ в Испании в ответ пытаются шутить

Programming in 2020:

Can't wait to boot up my APPLE to open up my MICROSOFT text editor and GOOGLE for solutions to FACEBOOK's technical debt in my MICROSOFT repository so I can deploy to AMAZON and I'll pay GOOGLE and FACEBOOK for the privilege of getting site traffic to show my visitors ads.

Apart from broken wires I seem to have found some ancient mud in my caving lamp 🙄 Now it should work for another decade...
