Wonder if this sorts out the BT problems as well. Seems to be connected to the WiFi problems, and is a bit silly to need line of sight with my PS4 controller while I can walk around my entire home with my headphones.
The Sumatran tiger Panthera tigris sondaica is a critically endangered big cat, with less than 600 of their species alive in the wild today. Once living in Java and Bali, they are now only found in…
So, is what you're saying that the average "Linux" user somehow(!?) still hasn't caught up to the GNU in GNU/Linux? Or doesn't distinguish between downloading opaque binaries (flatpak anyone?) and programs built from source by your distribution or by yourself. How could that have happened? /S
GNU meaning: we only run free software, and all free software can be compiled to run on GNU/Linux.
First picture is me, when software is said to be a "Linux program" but it's just really an Open source program that's relatively platform agnostic and runs on an BSD for example with no or very tiny tweaks.
First, yes. Second, no. I think software should be available on as many platforms as possible so that the user has the freedom to use it everywhere he or she wants.
aah yes. I expected a program from MacOS to become available for Linux because MacOS is also kind of Linux. But it was impossible. The creator even abandoned Windows as platform. However it is false speak about Linux users that GNU or FOSS shouldnot run on other OS.
I switched to linux (just a user) circa 2003. Primarily for FLOSS principles, 2nd for security & 3rd to avoid software costs.
There were many issues - dial up, cdma, wifi issue; printer & accessories etc etc
Circa now literally everything works
But Sometimes i have to help people on micro$lop wincedows - literally every default software is shit. Their default PDF tool is enshittified shit. Installing new software is a pain. All software have muliple layers of enshittification.

The new xdg-session-management protocol finally brings session saving and restoration to Wayland, eliminating a long-standing annoyance for Linux users and paving the way for a smoother desktop experience.
My Asus-Displaylink USB3 Monitor didnot work with Wayland. Drivers e.g displaylink.service all that worked showing green lights. Wayland denied Displaylink. So I fixed by switching back to xorg-X11. 😳
Maron can be over enthusiastic and scares a lot of other dogs off, or makes them mad enough to bite her.. Only the huge Akita dogs are really good with her, being 5 or 6 times as big.. But this Jack Russel Terrier was a good sport about being overwhelmed..
These blobs on some tide-exposed rocks were so bright, I thought they might be human-made. I don't know what they are, but I think they're alive, and I vaguely recall that I may have asked on another occasion but forgot the answer. #MendocinoCoast #MarineLife #MarineBiology

The resolution passed by United Nations General Assembly on 25 March 2026 seeking recognition of the transatlantic slave trade as the “gravest crime against humanity” potentially creates a broader definition of crimes against humanity in international law and allows for restitution claims against perpetrators. The resolution could elevate the legal and moral standard for what counts as the worst crimes against humanity, and compel more people to legally pursue reparations or compensation cases and thus deter such crimes.
Proposed by Ghana, it was adopted with 123 votes. The United States, Israel and Argentina voted against it. Fifty-two countries abstained, among them the UK and European states.

There has never been a single “gravest crime” designation applied to one human event or condition. Instead, international law defines categories of crimes considered the most serious. Examples are genocide, war crimes, crimes of aggression, and crimes against humanity. Being classified under these categories triggers severe legal consequences. These include global prosecution, lifelong accountability, international sanctions, and reparation claims.
Ghana’s declaration views transatlantic slavery and its system of forced African labour as the worst crime ever committed. It explains how millions of Africans were abducted, treated like property, and abused because of their race.
The declaration points out that the effects of slavery still influence inequality and racism today. It calls on all nations to recognise what happened, teach its history honestly, and remember the victims. It also works towards fixing the lasting damage, including institutional and monetary reparations.
I am a professor of history who has researched and written extensively on the slave trade and its impact. I argue that Ghana’s resolution represents more than a moral or diplomatic statement. It marks a decisive step in an ongoing effort of historical reclamation and political transformation. It asserts that the histories of enslavement, displacement and organised theft are foundational to the modern world.
More importantly, it insists that recognition must lead to action. For contemporary Africa, this moment is about leveraging historical truth to reshape present conditions and future possibilities within a global system still marked by the legacies of transatlantic slaving.

I have seen the center of a monster. Most people describe the sound of a tornado as like a freight train, but up close, it’s more like a thousand screaming jet engines. I am one of the few people on Earth who has driven into a tornado and lived to tell the tale.
While it might sound like a scene from a Hollywood blockbuster involving a high-tech armored truck, my experience was much more dangerous and terrifying.
I am an atmospheric scientist who studies tornadoes, but I am only alive today because of split-second decisions and a massive amount of dumb luck. Believe me, I do not want to ever be in that situation again...

I like them being available (ie. that the characters are available) but I've never met anything "smart" that didn't do something I didn't want, at least some of the time.
