Much of Labour and certainly Streeting are addicted to taking cash from companies that wish benefits. I wonder whether he has a checklist for the (English) NHS? I suspect Sarwar would love to be in a position to take money from the same in relation to the SNHS.

Really pleased to see @GrapheneOS making a stand.

> For people tired of data harvesting, AI slopware, and the vendor lock-in baked into proprietary OSes like Windows and macOS, something like GrapheneOS is one of the few alternatives left.

Android-Based GrapheneOS Refuses Age Verification, May Exit Regions That Enforce It

The privacy-focused Android fork would rather lose market access than collect user data at setup.

It's FOSS

We have a sad tale today from Manchester Piccadilly station.

This is Chocolat. Or at least that's the name printed on their foot.
They're a lovely, cuddly black kitty who was sadly separated from their owner on Platforms 3 & 4 about 19.14.

We heard a tinkle of broken glass and helped their owner tidy up however she had left before I could pass this lovely kitty back to her owner.
Unable to find her on the nearby train we are a bit lost.

Please share this far and wide, across any social media and maybe we can help reunite this poor kitty with their rightful owner.
We will ensure Lost Property here look after her in the meantime.

I didn't realize the facebook execs Mozilla acqui-hired last year have been promoted! I was assuming they were still just heading the ads division of Mozilla, but oh boy, I fucking wish.

Now the former Senior VP of Marketing of facebook (2008-2022, the finest years of facebook) is the CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER of the entire Mozilla.

And the former VP of Ads in Facebook (2012-2022), is now the Senior VP of Product of Mozilla.

Let me repeat this:

The guy who used to lead the facebook team that was literally "advertising to teenagers based on their emotional state" is now the guy who decides the direction of Firefox as a product. But hey, let's keep giving Mozilla the benefit of the doubt uh? I'm sure these people-who-should-be-on-trial-in-the-hague are going to do great things for the community!

Next up is raspberry pi class devices.

They're eliminating general purpose computing devices so next ice deployment the resistance can't anonymously coordinate on signal because your government ID is tied to your device and it's legally required to dox you in all communications.
