since Trump has bankrupted the USA, the new moderate position should be to seize all the assets of the billionaires and millionaires who scammed the country into bankruptcy, no?

@wwahammy @k3ym0 “that’s not my department,” says Werner von Braun….

A small set of people are merging changes to various Linux components to make sure every application knows your birth date.

This is being done rapidly by people with questionable justifications and being merged with no youth and few marginalized people involved.

ah dammit, killed my #asahi install forcing an early upgrade to #fedora 44. probably could have been saved with more fedora-fu (i'm an #ubuntu-girl at heart), as failure seemed more about fedora than asahi per se. otoh in the process of troubleshooting found they only actually "released" asahi fedora remix 43 a couple of days ago so... progress has slowed to a crawl.

partitions gone. may try again closer to when my macs fall off #apple's support path.

@daringfireball uBlock Origin (non-Lite, the full-fat version) is literally the reason I run Firefox on Mac instead of Safari (though I do have uBOL on Safari too); a distant second reason is that it runs on Linux too and Safari doesn’t.

Even with uBO sometimes I have to resort to reader mode, and sometimes still I have to just give up: site obvs doesn't want me to read it.

edit: woke up, fixed abbrevs
