As someone who has made a long and profitable career working exclusively with Linux, I 110% agree with this message. That's pretty much why it's lost the casual user market to M$ and Apple. :-(

Sigi Feder. Looks really nice ⚔️😍 Haven't had a chance to spar with it yet, but it does feel lighter and more nimble than my Sigi King. But not as different as you would think just from looking at it. 🤔 #hema #longsword #historicalfencing

I know there is a war going on and all, but it is rather embarrassing (as an American) that the Iranian propaganda engine has far better zingers than our own. It's a sad state of affairs when you have to wonder if the Iranian government is more competent than your own.

America is losing STEM expertise to other countries. The cause? RFK Jr and the Trump admin’s anti-science policies. Help restore trust in American science. Contact your Rep and demand they remove RFK Jr. tr.ee/removeRFKJr #ImpeachTheQuack #RemoveRFKJr #ImpeachRFKJr #STEM #RFKJr zurl.co/CPalw

Thought of the day at Las Vegas: Many pretty women walking by. But in a sea of high heels and cocktail dresses, by far the prettiest to my eyes is a sun dress and combat boots. You can't convince me otherwise. 🥾🥰

BREAKING: Former CIA Director John Brennan implies that Trump is lying about the Iranian talks and says he tends to believe Iran over Trump. Brennan: "I tend to believe IRAN more than Donald Trump, Because he could not acknowledge the truth even when he’s slapped in the face with it repeatedly."

Actually, I think it is not. NASA has a fixed price contract with SpaceX, so every failure is on them, and every (eventual) success goes towards satisfying the contract. That said, I can't imagine who wants to work for a Musk company knowing what we know about his ideal workplace culture.

The overwhelming sentiment of the past few weeks is that the US Government is no longer a good faith employer. In a global marketplace with competition from both private companies and state actors, this is going to prove much more costly to the US taxpayer than any savings, which they will never see

Liberals, including an official Democratic Party account, are sharing an audio clip purporting to depict Donald Trump Jr. stating that the U.S. “should have been sending weapons to Russia.” The clip is AI-generated. Read it in Reality Check: www.newsguardrealitycheck.com/i/158100167/...

Do not show up. Better yet, counter programming. Hold some sort of media event that is big enough to draw attention away from the actual event. If a few Dems boycott, it will backfire, so make sure it is coordinated.

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

Here’s an article to be sharing with friends and family that don’t “get” what the federal agencies Trump and Musk are gutting do: this is what the US looked like before the EPA. “The river caught on fire” isn’t a joke or a metaphor. 🧪
