PopOS! finally lets me update my function keys to control volume!

Last thing I need to make this my daily driver is to actually blank the freakin' screen when I don't touch it for a while.

Some designer got a big promotion for the Windows 11 taskbar and made it hundreds of millions of people's problem for five years

Mastodon
A short play by Lyn.

User: "Oh my god, my leg has fallen off and my house is on fire!"

User 2, enters from stage left: "Have you tried Linux?"

Curtain.

Web history disappears when it can’t be preserved.

Today, many publishers are blocking the Wayback Machine from archiving parts of the public web, putting decades of digital history at risk.

Tell publishers: don’t block the Wayback Machine. Sign the petition ➡️ https://www.savethearchive.com/newsleaders/

#WaybackMachine

Tell New York Times, The Atlantic, and USA Today to keep the crucial work of journalists in the Wayback Machine!

Always love seeing the Pacman rule at the #PyconUS intro. If you want to read more, see my blog post from 9 (!) years ago.

Question for people who know science.

I know that race is a social construct. The fact that I'm 'Black' has no meaning beyond my melanin levels. It doesn't, for instance, make me a better rapper than you. Culture might, but melanin doesn't.

So why are there medical differences between races? Black women have more fibroids, & have their babies a week earlier than white women. And Black men are more prone to type 2 diabetes.

Why's that? Culture? Racism? Something else?

I guess this is the type of thread (answers) that makes me happy to be on mastodon!

I talk about the #Fediverse whenever I get a chance. The trick is being receptive, not pushy. Let them try it in their own time.

Only saying this because I now have two long time friends actively participating in the Fediverse where 6 months ago they had no interest.

One was even using an app with AP integration and didn't even know it.

Anecdotal? Absolutely! But our reality is built on our perceptions.

Very excited by this! 😄
