GNOME Developers Suffer Constant Harassment

It's most important to talk about this.
Lemme tell you a story. Back in, it might be 2008ish i was already fully on linux, KDE 3.5 I think. I met someone online I liked, she was using Windows live messenger. I tried with Kopete, a multi messenger. It wasn't working all that well. To the point where I jumped in IRC and just threw all my anger at the devs. How crappy it is, how they can't even make the texting work, they pointed me to the bug tracker. That angered me even more. 🧵+
There isn't really a solution for this other than telling every toxic community member to do something with their lives lol

Steam Deck (LCD), reviewed by a portables enthusiast
The handheld gaming space has always been one steeped in both nostalgia and potential. Then Valve came along with their first entry in it, and reminded me of exactly why I love it in the first place.Pengling (GamingOnLinux)
I own several consoles (XBox 360, Series X, Playstation 3, 4 Pro, Switch etc.) and I am absolutely enthusiastic about the #SteamDeck !
It's PC-Gaming like it's a console. And better.
I totally love this device ..! 😀
Snow covered Langdales from Blea Tarn
I took this on Thursday, the snow cover took me by surprise. A heavy shower had just moved across the Langdale fells and then the sun came out - it took me a moment to realise that the reason the mountains were so bright was because of the snow.

Black Friday is a massive bait-and-switch. You queue up in the cold and dark waiting for a chance to grab a item which is 'on sale' (it's not, really) and in 'limited supply' (also not real).
If a big-screen TV normally costs $1200, but Ugly Box Store is selling it for $600, the manufacturer is still making a profit, only now has the added entertainment of watching people gouge each other's eyes out trying to score 'big savings.'
For decades corporate Australia has drooled over US Black Friday. This looked so much better than Melbourne Cup Day! Finally, it has worked its way into our culture, even though most Australians have no idea that it is a post Thanksgiving shopping spree event in the US.
This weekend it was already awful on the roads and near shopping centres. On Saturday mornings I often like to go to Eastland Shopping Centre, not so much for the shopping as for the plaza area where the local library and Kyoto Cafe are situated. I pick up a book or bring a book, read, have lunch, maybe pick something up from the shops (like socks yesterday), then head home.
Silly season has hit big and early this year. So many dangerous drivers on the road. I'm going to have to skip my weekly treat until January, because I refuse to be near the mayhem. sigh!

Well, as you've noted, I've had an interesting career. I didn't just work in news, I lectured at the planetarium, I was a remote employee for AOL, a gamemaster for Simutronics, a docent aboard the USS Hornet ... then also trained as a voice actor and taught myself to be a chef.
But none of that was because I had a master plan of some kind.
Just 600 years ago, nine species of enormous, flightless birds called moas wandered around New Zealand. Some of these magnificent big birds grew up to 12 feet tall, which would tower over Sesame Street’s most famous resident.
Moas had thrived for millions of years. And suddenly - shortly after humans arrived on the islands - they went extinct.
