Now, in Sweden, we have similar proposals from the current government, backed by the "Sweden democrats", a party founded by nazis and other fascist-leaning people.
The government is proposing increased surveillance, violating citizens' right to privacy, and letting the police stop and search people for "looking suspicious" or wearing the wrong kind of clothes.
All cheered on by the founded-by-nazis "Sweden democrats" party.

About the Reichstag fire in 1933: "Only the morning after did I read about the fire in the parliament building, and not until noon did I hear about the arrests [people sent to concentration camps]. Around that time came the order abolishing the freedom of opinion and the secrecy of correspondence for private citizens and giving the police unlimited rights to [search, arrest, etc]"
Those were obvious steps for the nazis then, in 1933, when establishing their dictatorship.

Reading "A German man's history" (Geschichte eines Deutschen) or "Defying Hitler", written by Sebastian Haffner in 1939 about the decades leading up to the Nazis coming to power.
Made me think about current Swedish politics. #svpol

@dos Great talk, and above all impressive work getting to the bottom of that issue!
Thanks for mentioning my contribution regarding reproducing it (at about 15 minutes into the talk). It was this https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux/-/issues/303#note_222036 and this https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux/-/issues/303#note_225396
Lots and lots of testing and recompiling kernels with different extra debug printouts behind that. 😅
Also this Factually episode on the Gaza war is extremely good. https://overcast.fm/+BBanT7BaT0
@hehemrin jag tycker att posten borde bli bättre på att leverera brev snabbt, inte sämre! Kanske skickas inte lika många brev som förr men det är ingen ursäkt, posten är fortfarande viktig infrastruktur som behöver finnas och som behöver fungera bra, snabbt och pålitligt.
@cisene klockor går ofta fel har jag hört
You're losing customers that way as they turn to products that don't require these kind of apps.
A public website accessible via any web browser makes not only us but also you independent from Apple's and Google's duopoly.
(Boosts appreciated, let's not get forced more and more into proprietary app stores)

Dear companies,
please don't make having access to Google's or Apple's app stores to use your products a requirement.
This locks so many of us out because we either don't have a compatible device or the device doesn't have the software to access these services (like google play services).
