You know how the IMDb site doesn’t let you save a photo when you right click on it because it has some shit overlay? There’s a quick uBlock Origin rule to get rid of it.

I needed to know which is the nth post of a certain post type in hugo. Just placed this code in my theme’s index.html file at the top and it just works:

1
2
3
4
5

{{ $.Scratch.Add "discno" 0 }}
{{- range first 500 (where (where $.Site.RegularPages "Type" "POST_TYPE").Reverse ".Params.hiddenfromhomepage" "!=" true) -}}
	{{ $.Scratch.Add "discno" 1 }}
	<p class="text-left">{{ $.Scratch.Get "discno" }}. {{ with .Params.artist}}{{.}}{{end}}{{ with .Params.album_name}} - {{.}}{{end}}</p>
{{ end -}}

and it outputs

1 - Placebo - A Place For Us To Dream
2 - Die Antwoord - $O$
3 - Santana - Supernatural
4 - Morcheeba - Fragments of Freedom
5 - Cliff Martinez - Drive (Soundtrack)
[ . . . ]

Of course, I could expand this into a shortcode, add some parameters, and so on, but for now it’s just fine.

It seems I somehow got to 1500 posts on the site, excluding the quickies and the 365 project posts). The 1500th is the review of Natural City. That’s a cool number, I guess.

practices that are being misused as evidence of terrorist behavior:

• the use of applications such as Signal, WhatsApp, Wire, Silence or ProtonMail to encrypt communications;
• using Internet privacy tools such as VPN, Tor or Tails7 ;
• protecting ourselves against the exploitation of our personal data by GAFAM via services such as /e/OS, LineageOS, F-Droid ;
• encrypting digital media;
• organizing and participating in digital hygiene training sessions;
• simple possession of technical documentation.

This is how the criminalisation of digital practices fits in with the French government’s strategy of repressing all social protests. Reaffirming the right to encryption therefore means opposing the authoritarian abuses of the government that seeks to endlessly extend the scope of “counter-terrorism” policies by designating an ever-growing number of domestic enemies. After the repression of Muslims, now it’s the turn of “eco-terrorists”, “intellectual terrorists” and finally, geeks armed with encrypted messaging systems. Faced with such a situation, the only question left seems to be: “And you, what kind of terrorist are you?"

It seems that France is willing to join an ever-growing list of countries where I don’t want to set foot in.
