Nothing of value to humanity, but it’s valuable to Alex Jones and Conservative activists as a platform to normalize conspiracy theories, so “valuable” in the wrong hands.

YouTube doesn’t like VPNs. Harder to track you (and sell/monetize your data) if they can’t tell who you are.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

Never played ME, before, but I hear it’s pretty good.

Ugh, but that’s boring! Can’t write an exciting article with facts like that! —Lunduke, probably

Your three paragraphs were more informative than the entire screed of that “article.” Good luck to Nix and the rest. I hope they get better documentation out of the changing of hands, because I think that’s the biggest thing holding them back from wider adoption.

By the way, this guy Bryan Lunduke is one of those QAnon crazies.

Thanks, that’s why my internal red flags went up. Was confused why he was kind of defending the hyprland dev.

The Hyprland creator was banned, by a Red Hat employee, from the Free Desktop project after a perceived lack of reverence for “Trans” activities and “pronouns”.

This is not accurate. The hyprland dev was banned for being a total and unapologetic asshole, and that pattern of behavior hasn’t stopped (see his “fair and balanced critique” of Cosmic).

Bazzite uses topgrade, which I think also calls fwupdmgr.

Okay, Obama didn’t have the benefit of future knowledge that Roe v Wade would be struck down. It was a precedent that had stood the test of time across decades.

Why the Dems didn’t do it for the very short time they had both chambers under Biden, I don’t know. Perhaps they had a naive belief that Conservatives wouldn’t be the trolls they are.

But even if we assume they won’t do anything about it again, which I seriously doubt based on how popular abortion access has become—even if we assume that, abortion isn’t the only thing on the ballot, and people are voting en masse for the Democrats, because LGBTQ rights, environmental protections, and even American democracy itself is at stake.

To cast aspersions and wring hands over abortion when we’re 30 days away from the election…I just don’t get how that helps anyone. The die has been cast. Holding onto some vain hope that neither Democrats nor Republicans will win (or worse, that everything will burn down in some bloody revolution) is madness.
