Spotted these two frogs outside of Union Station in DC. But I don’t think many passersby understood their message. #climate
in reply to Sheril Kirshenbaum

The sign references boiling frogs. It is not subtle. DC is like the most Democratic city in the US. Everyone there (bar republican members of congress) are aware of and believe in climate change.

Guardian's month-long investigation into the Lords


The Guardian has begun a month's worth of stories looking closely at the House of Lords, and already the findings have been shocking.

Read the articles on the Guardian's website

Revelations show how important a House of Citizens and the 858 project is. Just getting rid of the last hereditary peers doesn't go far enough to fix the Lords.

--One in 10 Lords get paid to give political advice.
--A Labour peer offered access to ministers.
--Multiple peers are being paid by foreign governments and repressive regimes.
--More than £1 in every £14 donated to political parties since 2001 came from those who have sat as peers in the last Parliament.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has released a free, open-source tool named Rayhunter that is designed to detect cell-site simulators (CSS), also known as IMSI catchers or Stingrays.

How a New Global Citizens’ Assembly Can Revive Climate Action


A new permanent Global Citizens’ Assembly for People and Planet is being established for the 2025 UN Climate Change Conference (COP30). This represents a major step forward for inclusive democratic participation in climate policy and provides a unique opportunity to refocus COPs from negotiation to action. The assembly offers a new model of global governance that is designed to be resilient to populist disruption and accelerate a just transition.

Do you know all of these? 🤔

in reply to It's FOSS

I've been using Linux for a few months and knew all of these! Funny how deep of a rabbit hole we get into and don't realize how much we learn

The only thing was understanding the difference between a Display Server and Display Manager, interesting stuff!

Well, it might be this I'm testing next week.

For myself so far I only had a free 8GB package to check it out. Only connected in a NAS though.

in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

so about that backup functionality. When is that coming? Updated to be compatible with the release on release date? Love nextcloud. And I'm grateful I get to use it. But that doesn't change that some core functionality that should be top priority is severely disregarded

Nah, bro. I'm way past tinkering and just use Linux because I actually like to get stuff done without fighting every step of the way.


Hi - I'd like to share this story of what is happening at NOAA GFDL, where some of my colleagues and I worked until the mass firings at NOAA last week.

Gaming overall on macOS is an unfunny joke, no backwards compatibility whatsoever (good luck trying to run PowerPC or 32-bit based games... which is most of the library), no Vulkan support, proprietary Metal API is both lacking in features and optimalization, modern Apple Silicon-native ports being locked down in the Mac AppStore etc.
in reply to JaneQ

Yep, they never really cared about supporting games properly.

Whohoo I don't have stereo equipment so yay! Off the hook. I do need to get back to digging myself out of the snow though.

Classic Big Tech move: Buy a great service, ruin it, and leave users stranded. RIP Skype!
in reply to It's FOSS

Who uses skype in 2025 ? 😅
I feel that this is somehow the Facebook of messanger(mostly Gen X and Boomers).

But it is sad indeed that the train of enshitification halts in every single service, as it seems.



You can’t overstate the historic importance of today’s speech to both American and Canadian citizens by Canada’s Prime Minister.

Please watch it and share it wherever you live, but especially if you’re in the United States. You need to know what Trump is doing, and why.
