The said #CSS class .icon has a property height: 48px which with current HTML structure causes a distance between two lines when I view a remote profile (view: /contact/X or a post (view: /display/X):
I'm sure, removing height from the said CSS class won't fix it in the long run but maybe checking the HTML/div structure would.

But on a serious note, I do get the fact a lot of people are not happy about #Twitter taking a hit from a nuclear missile called Elon. For a lot of people that was an important community, which is being actively destroyed. I feel for those people. And I also feel sad about the fact that one single man can destroy such a big and important platform all in one go.
It's annoying to be coming up with answers from hindsight - but hey maybe we shouldn't have large centralized platforms like Twitter that are able to be taken down by some douchebag billionaire. This is why we have decentralized platforms. They may be more complex to understand. They may not provide the same benefit for #capitalism to sell its products. But what they do well is provide resilience. No Elon can take down the #Fediverse - and that is a guarantee, not just words, because the fediverse is a collection of thousands of servers - and the number is going up by the day. Twitter is one server, which can be bought by a billionaire.
I don't want a #Mastodon either. I have my own platform, #Socialhome. But what I do want is to be a part of the Fediverse, and for social media to be more resilient to rich people going on shopping sprees for their own political agenda.
I look for an utilities class or self-implementation to invoke Enum.compareTo() in a null-safe manner.
Does anyone know such a class or how to implement it? I have a few enumerations written here and I COULD write one for each one. But I guess there might be a more intelligent and flexible way to do this.
The background here is that I have a public default constructor for the #JPA here and an other constructor that beside some other class fields sets this enumeration. Still I need to compare both instances ("empty" one and one with set values) in a null-safe manner. If I try to implement it without the null-check, it throws the all-famous #NPE at me and a unit-test fails.
PS: Is there a #Java group/forum like !java available somewhere?
Enum.compareTo() by implementing a static method accepting Enum<?> as types) and then checking both on equality (==) and null each. If none of them is null, the method Enum.compareTo() can be safely invoked.
This article, published in April 2021, tears the cover off the lies told about Julian #Assange, but few can shake off the disinformation they've absorbed from major media sources.What made a Special Rapporteur on Torture work on the Assange case and write a book on it?“When Julian Assange was still at the embassy in December 2018, his legal team actually reached out to my office. I remember it was just before Christmas, I saw this message pop up on my screen and I swiped it away immediately. I had this intuitive reaction: what does that guy want? He’s a rapist, a narcissist, a hacker, this isn’t serious, so I just discarded it. I have around 15 requests per day, and I can do one, it’s very routine for me to decide quickly, but I remember those negative emotions I had, that I usually don’t have.
Three months later his lawyers came back to me in March 2019, and they also sent me Dr. Sondra Crosby’s medical assessment. And I knew Dr. Crosby was a big name as an independent medical expert, who was not associated with Assange activists. I read these objective assessments by Dr. Crosby, by the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, I also read an article by James Goodale the Pentagon Papers man. I realised that I had strong prejudices against Assange, even though it’s my profession as a Human Rights expert to be objective. I started investigating further, scratching the surface of this case. The deeper I got into the case, the more dirt and contradictions came to the light. I also knew that I could not rely on information in the media and in the press, because that’s precisely the source that had deceived me in the first place. To be objective, I had to go visit him in prison, and, to be sure, I took not one medical doctor, but even two medical doctors with me, who are independent from each other and are not employed by the UN; they work as external experts for the International Criminal Court, the International Committee of the Red Cross and so on.
We spent 4 hours with Julian Assange, I spoke to him for one hour, and the forensic expert had one hour for a physical examination, and the psychiatrist did a two-hour psychiatric examination. Each medical examination was done separately from the other, so they wouldn’t influence each other. All three of us at the end compared our conclusions and agreed that he showed all the signs that are typical of victims of psychological torture. I must admit that I didn’t expect such a clear result.

Es geistert wieder ein Gerücht durch das fediverse, wonach cw (content warning) verpflichtend sei. Das ist Quatsch. Setzt es, wenn ihr das Gefühl habt, dass es dritte belasten kann. Verpflichtend ist es nicht.
Perhaps this news will surprise no one.
Bloomberg) -- Glencore Plc officials delivered cash in private jets to officials across Africa, UK prosecutors said as they laid out a web of bribery and corruption orchestrated by the London oil trading desk.The company, founded by Marc Rich, admitted to seven counts of bribery across countries including Nigeria and Cameroon, following a Serious Fraud Office investigation. Prosecutors said the company paid more than $28 million in bribes to secure access to oil cargoes. It marks the first time a corporate has been convicted for paying bribes, according to the SFO.
A London judge will determine the final fine on Thursday.
