Dubious? Bush and Cheyney demanding links no matter how tenuous from our intel folks, and those folks knitting together a plausible enough timeline that Bush folks swallowed hook, line and sinker, is what dubious is. What this regime is doing is straight up lies and cruelty and indifference.

We simply cannot give up the rights covered by the First Amendment. In this case, the right to photograph or take video from public, of public officials in the course of their duties has been ruled as Constitutionally protected free speech multiple times. Please repost.

I dunno. Fetterman didn't exactly come from a modest background. These days, it's hard to see anyone running for a Dem seat, not from a modest, as anything but corporatist...

So protecting kids is fine as long as it moves us towards total surveillance, but locking down that which has killed countless kids (guns) just can't be even thought of. Da fuq???!!!

One thing I've noticed is employers asking what you did during your unemployment. Try some free LinkedIn courses. I was lucky to have done a couple of courses at the beginning of my unemployment

My first system job was '88 as a Mainframe operator at a bank, I transferred to another depth where I started working on SunOS and AIX. I've been very fortunate in my career to work where I want to

You're quite right about not stopping learning. I've worked with UNIX since 1990 (Sun/AIX) new technologies still excite me tho!!!

Cool! I've been using Slackware since 95, and started with FreeBSD in 2001, but then stopped and picked it back up 2 years ago. I keep wanting to do gaming on Linux, but it's my job too so I get fatigued
