India is witnessing a surge in seasonal illnesses post-COVID, sparking debate about 'immunity debt.'

Here's the latest variant picture for Australia.
Growth of XEC.* continued, to around 64%.

Finally switched my gaming desktop over to Linux this weekend. The whole Windows 11 "upgrade" thing was getting too bizarre, and my experience with the Steam Deck showed that everything I want to play will work with Proton.
And that's the last instance of Windows I have - all my work moved to Mac or Linux years ago. None of my last several roles have been using Microsoft tech.
Experience so far has been great. Ubuntu install was perfect, Proton works perfectly, Steam is happy. I'm happy :)
