https://contribute.gaza.memorial/
the idea is to record the names of the dead of gaza in all the voices and accents of the world. a small gesture of global solidarity with the oppressed in the face of zionism and the attempted erasure of Palestine.

since november ive been putting together a memorial to the martyrs of gaza. it is complete enough that i am sharing it with the world this afternoon. boosts welcome.

I realize this paper topic is so so tiny, the epitome of a niche academic question, but it truly blows my mind that everyone knows about the rocks full of blood in computers today and there's so little record or acknowledgement of the rocks full of blood that made computers possible. I wanted to fix that!
