#Greece & #EU Commission signed deal to finance the construction of new closed #migrants camps on the islands of Samos, Kos, Leros

Remember this when people preach about European ideals/values. A history full of concentration camps, colonialism & racism

It's 47 years since the Polytechnic uprising, that led to the fall of the military junta the year after, in #Greece

Today the government forbid any public gathering. A ruling, that was last time issued in that day of 17.11 of 1973.

Stevenson's Treasure Island. Yup, the original one, the yo-ho-ho and a barrel of rum kind. I'm hoping a somewhat straightforward story, even better a classic pirate one would be just what I need during this strange period, COVID et al.

Donald Trump just tweeted, "I don’t care what state you’re in, this computer voting system is wide open to fraud and intervention." Oddly enough, he is 100% right, but for all the wrong reasons. He doesn't give a shit about voting-machine security, he just is pissed he lost. But, real talk: until voting machines are formally verified and mathematically certifiable to be fault tolerant, we should not trust them. https://github.com/gerlion/secure-e-voting-with-coq, http://users.cecs.anu.edu.au/~dpattinson/Software/vc-inv.pdf, https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/voting/

Oh my fucking god it’s real. The Trump team booked the wrong “four seasons” and now it all ends in a landscaping firm parking lot. Unbelievable. It should be illegal to be this happy
