@gamingonlinux Because you are reporting on things like this:
It seems like Apex Legends on Linux has been broken by the update today. After at most 1 min in the lobby or when trying to load any game mode, you get disconnected with a "Client not running the anti-cheat" message.
Looking at steamdb, the removed the "easyanticheat_x64.so" library required by the anti-cheat client.
His only criticism was I zoomed too much on the photo and is making me post another pic. He is right of course.
Happy Halloween 🎃

"Because of the attritional nature of contemporary peer review (and the level of aggression frequently encountered), successes in both papers and grants are nowadays likely to be met not with celebration, but a sense of exhausted relief. The pleasure is always fleeting."

@bsmall2 @aral
Have been using the #deathcult hashtag as a synonym of #neoliberalism, which is old fundamentalist capitalism that has come in waves, look at "classical liberalism" of the Victorian era that lead to the Irish and Bengal famines. And the last 40 years of mess in the west.
This is a mess we need to compost agen.
@Hamishcampbell
I think the deathcult tag a good idea.. I just wonder if it should be pushed further to cover Nukes, MAD, Mutually Assured Destruction.. maybe the "classical liberalism" excuse to do stupid stuff is one aspect of a deeper, older problem...
I hope I'm not diluting the important attention-focusing effect of the tag though too.

Thanks to @ntnsndr for this talk with Marjorie Kelly, author of Wealth Supremacy.
"Not only do we need to call out the bias and absurdity of the current system... but we need to take ourselves seriously as the next system." [my paraphrase]
Right on.
I also appreciated her quoting Robin Wall Kimmerer: "We are called to a movement made of equal parts outrage and love."
I'm glad I could catch the recording.

Why Are Linux & Unix Admins In The Wheel Group??
If you've used a Linux system you probably know about the wheel group but have you ever thought about the origin of the term and why we even call it a wheel ...YouTube
This video prompted me to lookup wiki.debian.org/SystemGroups
I think it's broadly the same on Ubuntu but I wanted to understand the underlying basis and intended purposes anyway.
For example I might have been tempted to use the "staff" group for users in a workplace environment without being aware that it grants a priviledge a sysadmin may not have intended.
i always thought it was somehow related to the mouse wheel. The group of people actually sitting in front of the PC and can use the wheel of the mouse.
Thanks for that knowledge update 
Significant UX upgrade in Mastodon. If you're looking at someone else's post on a different server than your own, you no longer have to do multiple clicks and copy/paste to share the item.
You just put your own hosting server into the popup box and it shows you the post in context in your own timeline, and you can share it from there.
No this isn't perfect -- still too many steps.
But it's a major improvement.
