BREAKING:

The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering".

It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists.

You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE!

#Kafka & #Java24 ... with this release it should be possible to run the client in Java 24, as it includes the security manager shim.

What used to be the 'American Dream', the thing I looked up to as a kid, has turned into an American Nightmare.

The EU must step up and lead by example, building a future of safety, social security, stability, and innovation. A future driven by optimism and promises that can be trusted.

It is now 3 years since the start of the Russian military invasion of Ukraine where lots of my relatives & friends live. Thank you all who support Ukraine defend itself against the relentless attacks! Shame on those who try to destabilize, weaken or even extort a country under existential threat. 🇺🇦
