Just here to say we really need to rethink default boot partition size. GParted saved the day for my install, but it shouldnโ€™t need to. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech.

This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.

Iโ€™m gonna miss TikTok. Account deleted. The beatings continue, but morale has not yet improved.

Agreed, but I also think this glosses over the democratsโ€™ failure to do anything useful at any point in the last 20 years or so. Theyโ€™d have better voter turnout if they ever delivered.

Wow fighting hard there, Chuck. You should both resign.

Hulu cancelled. I donโ€™t do business with fascists.

Ooo I love you left the CRT. Thatโ€™s hot.

I just donated to help Democrat Roy Cooper FLIP the U.S. Senate! Will you join us and chip in? Show your support with a contribution.

I believe that Americaโ€™s best days are still ahead, but only if we fix whatโ€™s broken now.

Right wing Republicans are ready to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to defeat us, but I know that together we can win. Become a founder donor of our historic campaign today.

Seems appropriate.

Iโ€™m pretty sure they call it Mountain Zevia because you can only find it in the mountains of NC.

Sad news. Got to meet Jesse a few times. My dad was in The Youngbloods early on, but he dipped before they went anywhere.

Solid Saturday. Made it to RockBox in the morning. Built this Lego bamboo in the afternoon.

Someone on Instagram said woke is an acronym for Whatever Offends Klansmen Easily and I canโ€™t think of a more perfect description of how that word has been weaponized.

The WH Press Secretary is slandering the previous administration and lying about the current state of affairs in her first briefing. Theyโ€™re inviting in TikTok influencers and conspiracy theorists media like Breitbart. Theyโ€™re flooding the zone with misinformation and gaslighting America. Share here

Great thread, but I think this is the headline. Few things actually follow a linear scaleโ€ฆ

AT&T Fiber is in! Now I've got it running alongside Spectrum, it's laughable how much better it is. 27ms Cloudflare ping on Spectrum; 4ms on AT&T. Plus double the speed. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Came here to say this. "Don't share OS accounts" is great until reality comes knocking...

Bishop asked Trump for mercy for the least of these. She could have slammed him. | Opinion I can't believe a so-called 'bishop' would stand up in church and ask President Trump to engage in some weird liberal behavior called 'mercy.'

@erinjebsen.bsky.social sent me this the other day and itโ€™s just perfect.

Spent the morning fortifying my PiHole lists. It probably won't accomplish much, but I still feel good about blocking more trackers, more ads, and all Meta and X domains. ๐Ÿซ

Thankful for BlueSky today. Pretty sure they werenโ€™t lobbying for anything.

I've been hesitant to move away from Google Workspace for my personal email after over a decade. But I finally did it! Proton is pretty slick.
