Friends had already sent me news about this change to Australia's electoral law. It certainly isn't hitting the mainstream news, but should. Juice Media to the rescue!

I hope so. I'm doing most of my gaming on Linux. Other than iPadOS

Most responses here have already covered the reasons why or why it's not ready. The Steam Deck is the closest to plug & play, while most don't even realize it runs a Linux OS. So, I guess that's a good start. But once something does rear its ugly head, that's where the "average" consumer wouldn't know why something doesn't work, while others, like me, whom have used Linux to play games, have the ability to troubleshoot issues that arise. It's not ready yet. Getting close though.

The world might be devolving into madness, but I have at last got my vim setup to a very sensible and pleasurable place. Not much to it, either: gitlab.com/ntnsndr/dotfiles/-/…
in reply to scott

@scott I keep adding things than subtracting them when I realize a simpler way. What do you think I'm missing that's important? I'm still very new to this.
in reply to Nathan Schneider

that really depends on what you use it for. I have a lot of plugins for typescript development. most vimmers I work with have way more plugins than I do


Apple Pulls iCloud Encryption Feature Following UK Government Demands


The company said it was "gravely disappointed" to no longer be able to offer Advanced Data Protection to iPhone users in the UK.

Small businesses are considered the backbone of the U.S. economy.

They account for 99.9% of all U.S. businesses and employ nearly half of the American workforce.

Small businesses generate 44% of U.S. economic activity and have created two-thirds of all new jobs in recent decades.

Important question for you all. I'm attending a local camera meet-up group this Sunday for the first time. There will be lots of film photographers there with cool cameras. If you were me, which one of my cameras would you bring? I plan to shoot with whatever I bring.




"Tor needs many different kinds of users to be safe. The fact that we have military people relying on Tor, and human rights defenders relying on Tor, and everybody in between, is part of why it is safe for all of them. You can’t have an anonymity system only for cancer survivors, or everybody can guess why you’re using it."

In 2025, #PLOSBiology continues to advocate for policy based on scientific evidence.

I feel strongly about the need for evidence-based policy and a dogged defence of science. I said it in 2020, and will reiterate it til the end of time.

The world may change - our principles should not.

This 2020 Editorial, “We need leaders that believe in scientific evidence”, resonates today as loudly as ever: plos.io/34lyl59.

PLOS Biology also continues to push for DEI and a diverse scientific community:

I'm currently looking for a NAS and Zima keeps coming up. What's people's experience with the cube of blade?

it's funny it is called "Zima"Cube for a homelab thing. Because it sounds suspiciously like "Zimmer" in German which describes a room in someones home.

Current events have shown how important it is to massively shift away from billionaire social media platforms. For our mental health, for democracy itself!

There is much to do to convince people that decentralised social media is not only good enough; its lack of feed algorithms makes it *better*. After all, feed algorithms serve platform owners, not platform users.

Help us campaign for this historic shift. We offer 3-9 week fellowships to
resident activists (Leipzig, Germany).

An article with the contents backwards

1. Instructions
2. Why you might be interested

With, yet again, a post with no explanation of the topic (Kodi builds).

This is poor writing and not respectful of readers time. You can surely do better by exercising a little consideration and editing it with these points in mind.

Indicate in the post what the topic is about.
Explain up front what the benefits are.
Then provide instructions.
