Organic Maps Mar 27

For almost two years, users searching for Organic Maps on F-Droid have been unable to install the app due to a bug (or due to someone's deliberate choice?).
Many users have reported this issue to us. They do not understand why it happens. The bug is still there, and F-Droid maintainers don't care: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient/-/work_items/2850

Rx Inspector, our free, searchable tool, allows you to look up where your generic prescription drug was made.

From patients and doctors to researchers, it is already reshaping how people make decisions. “This is a godsend,” one professor told us.

Parents — Get *every* childhood vaccine for your children that was on the schedule BEFORE RFK Jr. started pushing misinformation and disinformation — a.k.a. vaccine skepticism.

Statement from CHOP — Children's Hospital of Philadelphia — the right place to go for guidance.

Pass it on. Everyone should know.

I shouldn’t have to say this, but please don’t post direct links to the elementary OS ISO, especially on release day. This is my only form of income and I really don’t make a lot of it. I want to keep making elementary OS as my job, but when you bypass our pay-what-you-can ask it cuts directly into the revenue I rely on to pay rent and buy food. The vast majority of people already pay nothing when they download. Please don’t take away the biggest opportunity I have for folks to support my work

Folks, if you are not familiar with Parkrose Permaculture consider checking out her short videos (https://www.youtube.com/@ParkrosePermaculture/videos), including the one quote posted below. She speaks clearly and from the heart, and is an inspiration to carry on the fight in these difficult times.

Sign The Petition - Chuck Schumer Must Step Aside

https://www.change.org/p/demand-that-chuck-schumer-step-down-as-minority-leader

Will Bunch, as he so often does, said it best: A nation of heroes, a Senate of cowards - Americans out fighting for democracy while their Senate works to destroy it

https://www.inquirer.com/columnists/attytood/democrats-shutdown-cowardice-aca-healthcare-snap-20251111.html

Chuck Schumer is keeping his head low, hoping like in the spring after the last betrayal, that Democrats will move on. Let's not move on. Schumer must go. We need heroes, not cowards. Sign the petition.
