"'I don’t like that he made this donation' — Mullvad CEO reacts to co-founder’s donation to controversial Swedish populist party"

You have that backwards. Customers of a company get to decide whether or not they want to give that company their money for any reason they fucking please I’d also argue that no one would care if this were some mid-level manager making a donation. This is the owner of a company, not “staff.”

"'I don’t like that he made this donation' — Mullvad CEO reacts to co-founder’s donation to controversial Swedish populist party"

Saying he ‘made a donation’ is downplaying his role. It makes it sound like he’s just some guy doing what everyone else does to participate in politics… The 2025 donation accounted for 72% of the party’s total income last year. … According to data collected by DonationWatch, 2025 was the most lucrative year in the party’s history, netting a total of 5.58 million SEK. For comparison, the party received just 202,000 SEK in total donations throughout 2024. Just the annual interest on his donation is more that all of their other donations for the entire year combined. He didn’t just make a donation, he is practically their sole source of financing.

Day 713 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Today’s game is some more Jedi Survivor. Today I just kind of spent the entire time exploring. And man. I got some awesome screenshots (in my opinion). I spent like a good 10 minutes today for example just setting up this shot. I used spotlights to strengthen the shadow cast on her face and I really like how it turned out. I think I would have liked to get a slightly darker light but since the spotlights are only increments of 5 that wasn’t really an option. After dicking around for a bit on the reach I went and continued the main story, and being able to get some better pictures out on the desert really made me happy. I don’t like deserts but i really like the photos I got here. I really feel I did the desert justice here. The walkers in this one do feel a little easier than in the first one. It’s entirely possible I just now how to counter them. The droids though, that’s where I really struggled. I really felt like they were gonna blow up on me every second of the fight. Anyways. I made my way through the desert for a bit before stopping. I just made it past that puzzle with the wind tunnel where you have to block the wind to cross before getting off. Today was really about just taking photos and exploring for me i think.

Chile and Ecuador Leaders Arrive for Mercosur Summit

Regional leaders gather in Paraguay as Mercosur prepares to debate trade, integration and the bloc’s economic agenda. Chilean President José Antonio Kast and Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa arrived in Paraguay on Monday to attend the Mercosur Summit of Heads of State and Government, scheduled to take place Tuesday in the city of Luque. RELATED: Mercosur to Create Crime Monitoring Center with University‑Validated Data The visit marks the first official trip to Paraguay by both leaders since taking office. Kast was welcomed at Silvio Pettirossi International Airport by Paraguay’s Vice Minister for Economic Relations and Integration, Patricia Frutos. Noboa arrived shortly afterward, bringing the number of regional leaders already in Paraguay to four, alongside Uruguayan President Yamandú Orsi and Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz. Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is expected to arrive on Tuesday. Ahead of the summit, Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira criticized unilateral measures adopted by some members of the bloc, referring specifically to Argentina’s agreement with the United States as one of the issues generating tensions before the meeting. Mercosur y Japón inician negociaciones para Alianza Económica El presidente Lula da Silva anunció el acuerdo que se oficializará en la cumbre de Mercosur en Paraguay. ¿Consideras que esta alianza impulsará el comercio global? https://t.co/OMpedzc9Ig… pic.twitter.com/AiU6GEFOFo — teleSUR TV (@teleSURtv) June 16, 2026 Text Reads: Mercosur and Japan begin negotiations for Economic Alliance President Lula da Silva announced the agreement that will be formalized at the Mercosur summit in Paraguay. Do you think this alliance will boost global trade? “Initiatives involving further breaches of the common external tariff, which is already being applied less and less, tend to weaken the integrity of the customs union and could lead to a review of the integration process.” In addition to participating in the summit, Kast will carry out an official state visit to Asunción. His agenda includes expanded sessions on regional integration, the signing of agreements, a visit to Paraguay’s Congress, and bilateral meetings with several heads of state, including Noboa, before traveling to Uruguay for talks with Orsi. The meeting brings together Mercosur’s full members—Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay—along with associate countries Chile, Ecuador, Panama, Colombia, Guyana and Suriname. The bloc’s economic and political roadmap is expected to be at the center of discussions. On Monday, the Common Market Council debated the presentation of Mercosur’s agreement with Japan announced by President Lula, as well as plans to expand ties with Asia by deepening the existing agreement with India and advancing formal negotiations with Vietnam.

Buckethead - Pike 082 - Calamity Cabin [Rock/Metal Instrumental]

Buckethead - Pike 082 - Calamity Cabin [Rock/Metal Instrumental] A thirty minute, eight track pike consisting of mostly metal and hard rock with some experimental moments. The metal is strong in this offering. Lotta riffing. It’s top five heavy and enjoyably so. I didn’t care for some of the experimental sonics, but they were fleeting moments here and there at transitions. The overwhelming majority of this pike is wonderfully and thunderously heavy with an unapologetic drive and all the charm of a hammer-drill. It’s chaotic with quick notes, fast tempos and no regret.

Clicks Communicator: FIRST LOOK! (Working hardware)

cross-posted from: https://thelemmy.club/post/51862907 Clicks Communicator: FIRST LOOK! Original post (reddit): https://www.reddit.com/r/ClicksPhone/comments/1ujehuz/clicks_communicator_first_look/ Before you press play, I want to share a bit more about what you’re about to see. These first demos feature pre-production hardware, and internal software. It’s real, working hardware being used by our team for testing and validation, but definitely not finished product. That means you’ll likely spot a few rough edges. In fact, since we started filming this video there have already been several new internal SW and firmware deployments that add features and polish to the experience (like the hole punch camera cut out you may see obscuring text in the status bar at a few points in the video…that’s already been fixed 😉). Over the next couple months we’ll continue sharing more details and new demos of features like Message Hub, Signal Light, Prompt Key, touch sensitive keyboard, camera, etc. Speaking personally, it’s been so rewarding to start carrying Communicator every day and to be using it out in the real world. Seeing it evolve from an idea, sketches and prototypes into something I grab as I head out the door is pretty special (and kind of surreal!). The entire team is heads down building, and we’re still on track to begin shipping in Q4. Thanks for being on this journey with us.

There’s been a study in the Lancet about how unilateral sanctions cause comparable deaths to bombing the country. A key finding was that this only goes for the kind of sanctions imposed by the US that specifically aim for cutting the population off from food, medical supplies etc. to stoke unrest and incite regime change, not for the kind of sanctions that are used by the UN, which specifically exclude goods the people need for their survival. US sanctions are designed to be an act of siege warfare.

Hershey family ancestors understood the loss of homelands

Read more about the Conestoga massacres in a related story from ICT Charles Fox Special to ICT Long before the Hersheys came to Lancaster County in Pennsylvania, when the name was still spelled Hirschi, they resided in the Emmental Valley in the canton of Bern, Switzerland. They were Mennonites, Anabaptists who strictly lived by Jesus’ teachings but suffered religious persecution starting in the 1500s for beliefs that conflicted with the government’s state-run church. They were burned alive, beheaded or imprisoned for beliefs including that only adults should be baptized when they could make a commitment to the faith. They were also pacifists who would not bear arms or swear allegiance to a king in a country with a conscripted Army. They also understood the trauma of being forced from their homelands. When the government began confiscating their homes and farms, they joined a flood of Mennonites emigrating out of Switzerland in the mid- to late-1600s. Christian Darig Hirschi was among approximately 700 Mennonites who left the canton of Bern in 1671 for the Palatinate region of southwest Germany. The Rev. Jacob Everling, a church elder in the Palatinate, described groups arriving “destitute with their bundles on their backs and their children in their arms.” Shirley Hershey Showalter stands on the porch on June 20, 2026, of the historic farmhouse where she grew up in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Her ancestor, farmer Christian Rhodes Hershey. helped protect a Conestoga couple in the home’s cellar during the Conestoga Massacres in 1763. Credit: Charles Fox/Special to ICT With the financial aid of Dutch Mennonites and the generosity of villagers, Hirschi and other Mennonites made a new start in Friedelsheim, Germany. Even there, however, they were granted only limited religious freedom. They could only worship in groups of 20 families or less, and were unable to proselytize their faith or own land. They also paid an annual fee, “Mennonite Recognition Money.” No sooner did their efforts transform the land and rebuild the villages, however, than France invaded in 1688 in the War of the Grand Alliance, also known as the Nine Years War, torching the villages and farmland. With Roman Catholic electors coming to power and Louis XV less tolerant of their beliefs, many decided to relocate yet again. In 1717, Hirschi and his wife, Adelheid (Oade) and their children, Benjamin, Andrew, and Anna, turned their sights westward. Following a boat ride of several weeks on the Rhine River to Rotterdam, Holland, and then a 7- to 12-week journey across the Atlantic Ocean, they relocated to what became known as the “Paradise of Pennsylvania.” Hirschi was the forefather of the newly renamed Hersheys who followed in Pennsylvania. He was grandfather to Christian Rhodes Hershey, who became a Mennonite farmer in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and who stepped in to save a Conestoga couple from a marauding White militia targeting Native people in the mid-1700s. And Christian Hershey was the great-great-grandfather to Milton Hershey, who made his name in the candy business that still produces chocolate from Hershey, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania offered Hirschi the ability to purchase land, as well as religious freedom, and in November 1717 Hirschi and Hans Brubaker bought a land grant for 1,000 acres along the Little Conestoga Creek. They split the acreage equally, with the Hersheys taking the northern 500 acres. The land was in close proximity to an area known as Indian Town, where the Conestoga people annually planted their crops… It is believed that the land next to the Indigenous people was reserved for Mennonites because James Logan, the Pennsylvania Land Office agent and provincial secretary, believed they could live peacefully with the Native community. “The Hersheys and the other Mennonites were able to better relate to the Indigenous philosophies than the Calvin philosophies [of certain Protestant denominations],” Craig Hershey Stark, a descendant now living in the area, told ICT. “Because in their view, coexisting with Mother Nature was the objective of their religion and life,” Stark said. “The Calvinist objective was to conquer. And so I think that they probably felt more akin and closer to the earth, so to speak, with the Indigenous people than they did the Calvinists.” Hershey traditions The Swiss Mennonites were bishops and educators, men of faith and peace, who held strongly to their convictions. Their actions and interactions were guided by the Beatitudes, the Christian manifesto highlighting living as humble, merciful peacemakers. They wanted to leave behind the violence and persecution they had experienced. Christian D. Hirschi’s son, Benjamin, a Mennonite bishop like his father and brother, erected the first meetinghouse in Lancaster County and a public school on the southeast portion of their land, predating the city of Lancaster by about 13 years. In time, it would become known as Abbeyville. In 1775, Benjamin Hershey, as presiding bishop of the Lancaster Conference of Mennonites, made a presentation to the Pennsylvania Assembly to allow for conscientious objectors during the American Revolution. “We have dedicated ourselves to serve all Men in everything that can be helpful to the preservation of Men’s Lives,” he wrote. “But we find no freedom in giving, or doing, or assisting in anything by which men’s lives are destroyed or hurt.” Christian Rhodes Hershey, son of Benjamin, was born in 1719. In 1739, as a 20-year-old nicknamed “Langen” because of his lanky build, he purchased his own farm in present day Penn Township near Manheim with his wife Barbara Hostetter, who died 13 years later. When a militant group known as the Paxton Boys targeted the Conestoga people in 1763 in what became known as the Conestoga Massacres, Christian R. Hershey and his second wife Anna hid a Native couple known as Michael and Mary in the cellar of their farmhouse, putting their own family at risk. Dr. L.

Credit: Photo Courtesy of Princeton University Library Department of Rare Books and Special Collections The ties and affinity for Native Americans has resurfaced occasionally throughout the generations of the Hershey family. Philadelphia eye surgeon L. Webster Fox, the son of Diana Hershey Fox, provided free eye care to students at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania for more than two decades, and for several summers in the 1920s he performed hundreds of free eye surgeries to combat trachoma among the Blackfeet and neighboring tribes in Browning, Montana. Webster Fox was great-uncle to ICT contributor Charles Fox, and Diana Hershey Fox was his great-grandmother. Milton Hershey, the chocolate entrepreneur and a childhood friend and cousin of Webster Fox, also founded the Hershey American Indian Museum in 1933. As the collection grew, it became one of the largest collections of Native American artifacts as Hershey hoped to bring a window into different cultures to the small South Central Pennsylvania town. The collection became part of The Hershey Story Museum when it was created in 2009, but it has not been on display since 2012, when the museum shifted its focus to the various aspects of Milton Hershey’s life. Unable to have their own children, Milton and wife, Catherine, set up the Hershey Industrial School in 1909 to serve orphaned boys. Like the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, the Hershey School days were divided between classroom academics and learning industrial and agricultural trades. The boarding school, renamed the Milton Hershey School, now serves students, both male and female, from many backgrounds. A year before the Hershey school’s founding, at least 10 students from the Carlisle Indian Industrial School worked in the Hershey Chocolate Factory as part of the school’s outing program in 1908-1909. They were also recruited for their athletic ability to play on the Hershey factory baseball team and other Hershey teams during their stay. The Carlisle students came to Hershey because of a personal friendship between factory president William Murrie and Glenn “Pop” Warner, Carlisle’s renowned football and track coach. Some of the students opted to reside in Hershey after finishing their studies at Carlisle. ‘Gifts of our ancestors’ On Sept. 21, 2017, over 100 Hershey descendants came together to celebrate 300 years of the family being in America. As part of the weekend events, they stood by the graves of Michael and Mary, and remembered the heroic display of friendship that had taken place at the site. On behalf of the Mennonite community, they apologized to Native representatives, including MaryAnn Robins, Onondaga, president of the Circle Legacy Center, for letting their ambitions keep them from doing more. “The [Christian] Hershey Family, they did the right thing despite possibly causing peril for themselves,” Robins recently told ICT. “It makes you realize these were good people. They took a stance. … It takes a certain individual that will speak and stand up. Not everybody has the courage to do that.” Craig Hershey Stark stands by the graves of Conestoga elders known as Michael and Mary in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, on June 20, 2026. His ancestor, Christian Rhodes Hershey, provided refuge for the couple in the cellar of his farmhouse from a mob of militiamen looking to kill the Conestoga people in 1763. Today, the graves are marked by four stones and outlined by split rails. Credit: Charles Fox/Special to ICT On Christmas 2022, Shirley Hershey Showalter, a tenth-generation descendant of Christian Rhodes Hershey, and her husband, Stuart, presented their grandchildren with books they had compiled highlighting previous generations and emphasizing that they carry within them “the hopes and dreams of all who went before you.” Among the stories was the friendship between Christian Rhodes Hershey and Michael and Mary, and an age-appropriate version of the Conestoga Massacre. Despite growing up in a Mennonite home near Lititz, it was a story Shirley, now 77, had not known for much of her life. “Why didn’t I know about Mary and Michael? The story got lost. And so did the Hershey connection,” Showalter recalled. “I knew zero about it when I was growing up. I knew what Mennonites believed and that this was a heritage, a tradition … . There simply was no knowledge of this incredible story that could have given identity and pride to all of us.” Her grandchildren were asked what values they see in the lives of their ancestors and how they could honor them. Showalter revealed her own answers: to stand for peace, to look for ways to love everyone even in the face of hate, to use powerful words for just causes like Benjamin Hershey, and to have the courage and loyalty of Christian Rhodes Hershey and his wife, Anna. “These are the gifts of values and stories. These are the gifts of our ancestors,” she later wrote in her blog. For the Christmas holiday this year, three generations of the Showalter family will travel to Switzerland to see and feel where their Anabaptist ancestors survived persecution. Showalter and her husband said they are “expressing our hope that they will find ways to be as courageous and clear and kind as these people were.” The post Hershey family ancestors understood the loss of homelands appeared first on ICT.

Does English have an equivalent to counting suffixes?

I know Japanese does not count the same way as English, they do not say something like “I have four cats at home.” instead it’s 家で４匹の猫を飼っている (匹 is a counting suffix used when referring to smaller or medium sized animals like domesticated pets for instance.) This is known as 助数詞 (じょすうし) in Japanese. By the way there are 350 counting words in Japanese, but nobody uses all of them, the only ones you will commonly spot are: 人 - Refers to the no. of persons within a setting or those present. For instance, you do not say 8たこ焼き, you instead say たこ焼き8個 - with the counting suffix included to make it clear to the speaker. In terms of 一人 (it’s pronounced as ひとり) while 二人 is pronounced as ふたり however from 三人 onward: 人 is pronounced with にん at the end, eg. さんにん. Some more (I won’t list them all): つ - A counter for [things] in general, as it is also commonly used in Japanese. 枚 - Refers to the no. of sheets of (paper), pieces of flat objects (like cloth, credit cards, etc.) 階 - Refers to no. of floors within a building. (E.g. this apartment complex consists of 30 floors.) 冊 - Primarily a counting suffix used for documents or books (E.g. Nikolas read 3 books.) 件 - Refers to the no. of [cases / incidents] but this counter has versatility in its usage. 個 - Counter for [no. of pieces] or some things, you see this word in relation to let’s say: food. This is why this is hard for speakers of English to grasp, when they are learning Japanese since the manner in which they count numerical units always need an associated suffix tied to it. (Even native Japanese speakers only use a portion of that, you don’t expect them to know literally every single one.)

"'I don’t like that he made this donation' — Mullvad CEO reacts to co-founder’s donation to controversial Swedish populist party"

I’m not at the point where this outweighs the reasons I picked mullvad yet. And the other cofounder’s statement does at least give me hope that it might work itself out in a way I can accept before my current term is finished. That being said, I’m not sure I can give money to the company when someone is profiting from that money and spending part of it on a political organization that expressly espouses a stance I believe to be harmful and dangerous. And it isn’t like you can pirate a VPN, so it differs significantly from when actors or musicians do stupid shit. That being said, I also don’t think that using mullvad would be something other people would be obligated to avoid just because the CEO donated to a small and shitty political party. By itself, it isn’t something so bad that it’s possible to point to a customer and do more than inform them of the donation and maybe give them links to see for themselves that it’s a shitty party. Or, at least that it’s a party with some really shitty platforms. But the guy needs to show a major shift in how he donates before I’ll renew.
