I feel exactly the same, the font rendering in Linux drives me absolutely insane. The amount of hours I've spent over the past 15 years tweaking fontconfig, having to compile special patched packages etc etc doesn't bare thinking about.
I don't even have to edit anything on Windows now, and when I did a few years ago it was only on a clean install going through I think what was called cleartype config, you had a panel of 6 images/samples to choose from and after going through it all everything looked pretty damn perfect.
I've read the documents where one of his victims describes what he did to her, absolutely disgusting. It goes far beyond assault and r*e, it was torture with tools. To a 7 year old girl, for several years, multiple times daily.
And Canonical, Debian and Gnome are doing their best to protect him and close down any discussion. Although it seems earlier today Canonical have let him go.
The guy recently outed as a pedo who tagged drawn images of pre-pubescent girls being sexually assaulted as "happy sex"? Yeah I'm not visiting that site.
He needs to do as much damage to Stallman while he still can. Stallman's recent health scares (as noted in the "stallman report") have most likely prompted this as Drew knows once RMS passes away he wont be able to get his revenge on the guy or have him removed from what has been his life's work.
There are screenshots from Drews live streams which show his browser history/bookmarks which show links to 4ch board for cartoon drawings of lewd/nude children which make this all the more sickening. No wonder Drew loves his "research" so much.
What’s even more horrifying is he believes in forcing IUD surgeries onto teen girls. Why is a man this old so invested into sexual art of and opinions relating to the sex life of young teens? It’s genuinely disgusting to think about.
Well you see this quite often, you have these men who protest very loudly online about CSA end up being found guilty of assault or in ownership of assault media themselves.
One can only hope Drews local law enforcement find a reason to seize all his computer equipment and do a forensic investigation.
Here is an interesting find from a comment 12 years ago made by Drew on reddit (https://undelete.pullpush.io/r/todayilearned/comments/udlwf/...):
"What an ass, you don't have to call him out in the middle of a (mostly) unrelated post. I pity pedophiles - you can't control what turns you on, and they happen to be turned on by something illegal. It's a dick move to try and bring it up and shame him publicly."
Definitely needs his hard drives searching by authorities.
Instant 100+ upvotes out of nowhere. A bunch of new accounts posting supportive messages that after checking about 20 of them had posted on the sub before and just magically appeared. Downvotes to anything asking questions.
There is one infamous mastodon troll "developer" that can't get enough of themselves and I would put money on them being involved in this, if you know you know.
Seems this jmpeax person didn't fins it at all, actually bought the hack from someone else but scammed them so the original author made it all public.
The telegram link is the original author screen recording of theirs and jmpeax conversation with jmpeax trying to buy it.
I'm currently sitting on Windows 10 LTSC IoT and refuse to move.
I am now planning, because my laptop is a little old now, to purchase an M3 iMac in a few months or at the end of the year.
I've tried 11 a few times. I do not like it, I do not like the look of it and most of all I absolutely HATE that I cannot have the taskbar on the left hand side of the screen.
Switched to MacOS 10 years ago. Never looked back. And I started with DOS, teached WindowsNT on admin level and kept my Windows installations “alive” through fiddling with the registry (while everyone reinstalled it). Nowadays I live more and more in the terminal…
I worry about his home/personal system, this guy seems to have befriended Lasse in order to get the position, is it possible Lasse himself has been compromised?
I'd be nuking everything, possibly even disposing of hardware and setting up a new verifiable online identity on a clean system/hardware.
I got that big warning about having 2 videos left before being locked out of youtube viewing due to running an "ad-blocker", that was last week, I've not watched a video on the site since.
I just download it with yt-dlp or throw it in to mpv. If those stop working I'll probably just stop watching youtube altogether since I only watch maybe 6-10 vids a week anyway. This "app" does look quite good, but for how long it will work if g**e keeps making it difficult I don't know.
This might be useful to you. Alternative YT frontend with many instances. Usually the only third party connection is to googlevideo.com, which is unavoidable, if you want videos from YT.
Sometimes a video might not play or might not be downloadable. Simply switch instance, maybe to an instance in another country, and try there.
At least for me here in the UK the live-updated rain was very accurate, you could watch it come and go in pretty much real time combined with looking out the window.
I'm struggling to find anything like it now, it was incredibly useful since I go out a lot to do little jobs and if its a crappy weather day (pretty much every day this time of year) it was nice to check to see if I had enough time to do something or if I'd need to go out and cover some things up.
