The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has voted to dissolve after Republicans rescinded $1.1B at President Trump’s behest.

This ends the 58-year-old agency that distributed federal funds to NPR, PBS and more than 1,500 local public radio & television stations. apple.news/AXdo2-zPuRCiJSiIVd3… #uspol #news

Their government funding got cut to the bone in the '80's and they became ever increasingly dependent on corporate and local business sponsorships and as a result more and more conservative in their programming.
It's not really such a loss at this juncture just a sad but inevitable end.

I literally gasped in horror while reading your toot. When will these modern middle ages end? 😭


Coming home from grocery shopping yesterday I could see smoke rising over one of the mountains to the north of Healesville where I live. At first I saw nothing on the emergency app on my phone about a fire, but not long after it popped up.

This morning people an hour north of us are being told to evacuate their homes instantly.

I've just finished my breakfast and will now go upstairs and pack a suitcase. We should be fine, but it's important to be prepared. We don't have miles of concrete protecting us as we would in the city.

i've been playing arc raiders using keyboard and mouse. i don't usually play online shooters, and i mostly play games with a controller nowadays, but i'm having fun.

the game has a slide move. to perform it, you have to start holding W (to move forward), then start holding shift (to sprint), then start holding control (to crouch). you need to keep holding all three to slide.

i have no idea how to do this comfortably. this is how i've been doing it, which is ridiculous

It replaced teens creating collages for mood / inspiration boards. 😀 Maybe it would be better if they want back to them. The rubber glue companies would love it.

How a #parasite gave up sex to find more hosts—and why its victory won't last phys.org/news/2026-01-parasite…

Host range expansion of asexual parasite can be explained by loss of adaptions in Muller’s Ratchet nature.com/articles/s41467-025…

"an asexual lineage of #Giardia managed to infect a wider range of hosts than its sexual ancestor... at a cost. Because these #parasites don't exchange genetic material, harmful mutations build up over time, leading to eventual collapse"

Linaro reveal they're collaborating with Valve for the Steam Frame gamingonlinux.com/2026/01/lina…

I'm glad that the option is simply turned off by default with the ability to enable it via CLI or with Tweaks. The author makes a decent use case argument and I don't know how many people would actually benefit but it seems solid. If this was simply to make Gnome more Mac OS like I'd simply question why? I just feel like if the former rationale was the reason, everybody has better things to work on. If this helps solve a real problem, OK. Not a big deal.

scheduler in Linux is traditionally cron and at cmdline by at cmd. No kernel expertise was ever needed. There are better subjects for up skilling than kernel experiments . Important are quick wins for upskilling . No academic issues for starters

I didn’t realize thts was still a thing, Glad to see it finally formally getting addressed though.


Linux users aren’t just following the self-hosting trend; they are taking it forward.

in reply to It's FOSS

No surprise. Most hosting, self or otherwise, is done on Linux.
in reply to It's FOSS

I imagine the self-hosting stats look the inverse of desktop.
Desktop: majority Windows
Self-hosting: majority Linux

„The genomes of pathogens are amongst the most important data in public health,” says Kristian Andersen of Scripps Research, one of the researchers behind Outbreak.info. They allow researchers to track the spread of a disease and design diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines. Conflicts about who is allowed to do what with GISAID data have occurred for years, and the world should find a better solution before the next pandemic strikes, Andersen says.

> All three appointed members of the Data Protection Team have stepped back from their roles

> The fact that all team members have stepped back at the same time should
make it clear that we urgently need new volunteers to fulfil this role.

EDIT (accidentally clicked "send" to early): this seems like a bit more context on the reason why they all stepped down simultaneously would be helpful.
