A metal detectorist has unearthed a stunning #gold ring in Denmark, potentially unveiling a new chapter in #European history. This rare find suggests the existence of an unknown princely family with ties to the Merovingian Kingdom of #France! This could change our understanding of #ancient European alliances. A true testament to the power of amateur #archaeology!

Really?! Google is labelling a Geminispace search engine as a malware site?

I think that’s pretty dodgy on Google’s part.

I've started creating free game assets back in 2010, and now;

‣ 182 packs on my website
‣ Contain a total of 35,229 unique assets
‣ 31,154 are 2D sprites
‣ 2,974 are 3D models

Grab 'em here (free, public domain, no ads, no registration, no tracking): https://kenney.nl/assets

Can we appreciate for a minute that at some point great people came together and created top tier free software that in the past would cost you thousands of dollars?

Governments Must Reject New Amendments to International Health Regulations

The WHO, most likely with the complicity of your government, is pushing through a set of amendments to international pandemic laws that will put your livelihood and liberties at the mercy of a WHO-appointed “expert committee” whose advice during a pandemic or other “public health emergency” will supersede that of your own government.

Great news: Firefox now looks way less dated by default on GNOME! It still has some unnecessary color tweaks compared to its "default" light/dark styling, and uses the default GTK close button, but this makes me really happy to see nonetheless. Thanks to the people who made the change! ❤️
