For many people, the #Linux vs #Windows vs #Mac debate is a privilege — it assumes you can choose. But working with the Computer Upcycle Project, I've seen the real choice is often Linux vs no computer at all.

~95% of donated computers are "too old" for Windows 11 or macOS. Linux installs on them anyway, adding 10+ years of life to machines #Microsoft and #Apple called trash.

This isn't Linux vs Windows. It's Linux vs e-waste.

El COI, justificando que las mujeres trans al crecer con testo tienen ventajas de hasta un 20% en velocidad y fuerza.

El COI, dando medallas olímpicas a mujeres trans: no ha sucedido ni una sola vez.

Los juegos olímpicos de 2026 serán recordados como los juegos fascistas de la Alemania nazi. Empecemos el boicot ya!

So, more insights into Mozilla leadership. If you go https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/leadership/ and look at Mozilla Corporation, they list 24 people between the executives and the "senior leadership" team. From those, 7 of them came from Meta.

Not bad, 30% of the leadership of the corporation governing over Firefox came from one of the corporations with biggest responsibility on destroying the open internet.

Adults lose skills to AI; Children never build them. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-algorithmic-mind/202603/adults-lose-skills-to-ai-children-never-build-them

Adults Lose Skills to AI. Children Never Build Them.

Discussions of cognitive offloading often miss a critical distinction: What AI does to a 45-year-old's brain is categorically different from what it does to a 14-year-old's.
