Ich plane, im Januar ein oder zwei Tage in #Zürich zu verbringen. Ich würde mich über Vorschläge freuen, was ich mir ansehen, wo ich essen gehen und welche Souvenirs ich mitbringen könnte.

So, BJP won Bengal with a landslide.

Mamata Banerjee joined the list of regional leaders who lost the state elections to BJP (like Kejriwal).

These leaders used to think they can defeat the BJP on their own without supporting the Congress party.

It's time to get disillusioned with the idea that BJP can be challenged without a united opposition and to revive the INDIA alliance which worked well for a few months that it held up together during the run-up to the 2024 elections.

They need to realize who the enemy is.

We could learn from the history. The united opposition defeated Indira Gandhi in 1977.

In 1989, the opposition stopped Congress from forming the government. BJP united with the left to achieve that. This is the understanding and political maturity required right now from the opposition.

If that doesn't happen, the way things are, both the opposition and the democracy (whatever is left of it) in India will be over. It is because BJP is ruthless and will leave no stone unturned in making an opposition free nation.

Yes, the playing field was not even in the elections, but we need to accept that the fight against BJP is going to be unfair. The opposition cannot wait for the playing field to be even.

For people like us, we need to enroll ourselves in the electoral rolls, go out and vote for the party which can defeat BJP in the elections. And also to convince people already against the BJP to vote in a united manner.

I started announcing my OpenPGP key in #Dino recently. Since then, Dino asks for my key passphrase every time I open the app.

I am using Debian Trixie with KDE. My friend @badrihippo@fosstodon.org who uses GNOME and also announcing his keys doesn't have to enter the passphrase though. He got an option to save the password in the password manager, which I didn't.

I have attached pictures of my screen and my friend's so that you can compare.

Let me know how can I fix this. Is it specific to KDE?
