The Linux experience has changed quite a lot over the years. You’re unlikely to have trouble getting your computer to work with it now.
You’ll be more vulnerable to malware because it won’t be patched against newly discovered exploits.
The problem is that, as people say, the people who are rich enough never lose. They can parse any situation into greater wealth. It’s us little people who always lose.
19·26 days agoThey expect single Americans everywhere to be celibate. Except themselves, because that’s different.
All that time and money invested in agent Krasnov is really paying off.
More likely someone he didn’t like came from Norfolk VA or Norfolk MA or Norfolk NE, or Norfolk in England or Canada, and Trump’s team (or the LLM they used to write the document) doesn’t know the difference.
2·28 days agoNo, I’m on Fastmail. It’s full-featured and has a slick web UI, but it’s not as good for privacy as Tuta, Proton, etc. Also, although Fastmail is Australian they apparently host their servers in the USA.
My email provider will auto-generate aliases with no limit, and I also subscribe to Mozilla Firefox Relay, which allows me to invent email addresses on the fly and have them relay emails to my inbox. The advantage of the Firefox Relay is that it isn’t tied to the email provider so if I switch provider the aliases can still work.
Florida will sink either way.

“Why are they saying you pushed a priest?”
“They were trying to pull me away from the pulpit. I grabbed the pulpit and just held on. I didn’t push anyone. They had four guys grabbing me and dragging me off there.”
“What made you want to preach today?” “I’m worried about human beings, our brothers and sisters who live within our midst and are being targeted by the government.”
“What do you consider to be targeted by the government? What class of people are you …”
“Undocumented immigrants.”
“So you don’t agree with deportations and things like that?”
“Uh-huh.”
“Did you say anything like that?”
“I didn’t even get there.”
Looking at a copy of Gillcrist’s prepared remarks, the officer said, “So I see you mention Gaza and Ukraine in here. What’s your message with that?”
“They’re our brothers and sisters. When we stop seeing people that way it’s so easy to start making laws or enacting policies that harm them.”
23·29 days agoThat standard should still deal with plenty of the fascists, if consistently applied. Only the decent, honest, law-abiding fascists will slip through.
If you’re in the USA don’t you dare say abducting medics, handcuffing them, executing them and dumping their bodies in a mass grave is bad, or you’ll be abducted, tortured and disappeared to permanent prison in a random country. This is called free speech.
I don’t know, most middle schoolers learn and grow out of it. MAGAs are not up to that level.
Well played. This made me laugh.
We’ve been hoping for a patriotic hamberder to do its thing since 2016.
The Trump administration has been trying to brand anti-Tesla protests that damage cars as “radical left Terrorism.”
Tariffs came in last Tuesday, were removed on Friday, came back on Sunday. I expect Tim Apple is loving the daily surprises.
