The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Re: New Web Pages are out

There was once a study done, that concluded light blue was the best in
terms of eye strain.  The Atari 400/800/1200 line used white on blue for
this reason.

For me tho, dark backgrounds with lighter foregrounds seem to work best.
So long as the contrast is sufficient, I'm quite happy with a black
background.  :)

Then again, I don't mind having a white background.  It's not -that- big
of a difference.
