OH RIGHT
while yall are investgating alternate browsers, STAY AWAY FROM BRAVE
โข run by homopobe and financial backer of other homophobes Brendan Eich
โข crypto is all over the fucking thing. they drip feed users tiny amounts of crypto for unblocking certain ads and fill the home screen with crypto trackers and shit
โข they "block ads" but inject their own affiliate links into sites you view
this is not the browser youre looking for
The common narrative here is "before landfills we just threw things any old place" and as such they're a "sanitary" invention. But this completely ignores that before the modern era, plastic didn't exist and metal was considered precious (and rightfully soโit's non-disposable, can be re-forged, and is procured under extraordinarily harsh conditions, often by slave labor or other lower-caste people).
Without metals, hazardous waste, and plastics, a landfill is a just a large compost pile.
Things corporations often don't care about:
โข early support for new #Python versions (they prefer to stick close to EOL)
โข support for hardware other than brand new amd64/arm64 machines (and especially not for 32-bit systems)
โข support for building outside their internal CD workflow
โข support for testing outside their internal CI workflow
โข *not* vendoring obsolete dependencies
These are just some examples of things that distro developers do, off the top of my head. These things are important too โ but they aren't backed by buzzwords and they aren't profitable.
Please consider tossing a coin to your witcher, that's fighting the beasts of Code Rot and Nonportability for you. Or, well, hire them. They need to eat too.

Sorta PSA: If you make a post and the whole content of it is "PSA: Don't use (website/browser/software/OS/thing)", then you are not actually doing a public service announcement.
At worst, you're just engagement-baiting the people who already agree with you to boost and like your opinion in a desperate sense of validation.
At best, you're putting in the least possible effort to change hearts and minds of people around you.
Ask yourself, would you give any credibility to a toot you saw that was just an unsubstantiated claim like that, with "trust me bro" as its only source?
Years ago, some wings of social media took "I don't have to explain this to you" to illogical extremes. No, you don't need to explain your own lived experiences, or to explain why people should care about other people. But if all you're doing is telling people to change their habits, then yeah, actually the onus is totally on you to explain why you're saying that in the first place.
Happy pride month! :D
I'm super late this year too, but it's still June, so good enough! Ofc I had to draw Anxious Cheet and Supportive Doggo again, showing off their new pride shirts while heading out to some event.
I truly wish the best to all my fellow LGBT+ around the world, and urge everyone who sees this to give as much support as possible. Any help can make a huge difference at times.

Carol Vorderman, writing for @goodlawproject on the PPE scandal:
'We must never forget the ministers who stood & clapped for key workers on the front steps of Downing Street while they ushered their pals in round the back'!
The GLP have been working to expose this corruption & while the Tories might hope it will be forgotten, we need to ensure the next Govt. brings the culprits to justice, if we are to maintain some semblance of a fair democracy!

The Tories want to move on from the debacle over their unlawful VIP lane. We must hold them to account at the ballot box.Good Law Project
Credit scores are a joke.
My score dropped when I paid off my car.
My score dropped when I paid off my student loans.
Credit agencies told me to take on more loans to increase my score.
The system wants you to be in debt.
It's a business for them.
They punish you for not owing money.

Work-life balance isn't a luxury. It's a necessity.
Trust me.
I saw someone recently talking about how they realised the worst thing about companies removing the headphone jack from phones wasnโt forcing you to buy then ultimately lose Bluetooth headphones. Or even trying to lock you into getting AirPods.
Itโs that itโs the main contributing factor to the rise in assholes on speaker in public.
Playing music top volume, watching videos, having loud phone conversations etc.
And, yea.

If you have symptoms, stay home. Then test two days later.
โIf a person with #COVID19 tests immediately with a rapid test when symptoms emerge, they receive a false negative as much as 92% of the time. Waiting two days after symptoms brings that rate down to 70%โฆ Our symptoms are happening sooner, but it takes longer to reach enough virus in your body for it to be detectable.โ

Oh gosh, we used to use 35mm film containers for some small stuff in the kitchen, like for pre-weighed portions of sugar/salt/etc for breadmaking.
I just discovered a week or two ago that Pringles tube lids fit our most-used drinking glasses pretty much perfectly! Very handy for putting on the top of a glass overnight so that, come morning, I don't have moths swimming in my wake-up drink. I even filled a glass, put a Pringles lid on it and turned it upside down over the sink - no leak at all, they fit so well!
We also have some little ramekin dishes that these lids just happen to fit quite well too. Handy for sealing small amounts of left-overs in to put in the fridge. So good when things just happen to work like that.
Turns out there is one good thing about the Cybertruck; itโs so obviously bad for pedestrian safety that itโs actually bringing awareness to our lack of standards in that area. People who do not know or care about cars look at it and just intuitively know something is wrong.
My mother, who probably does not know how many cylinders are in her engine or how many gears her transmission has, now knows that EuroNCAP includes pedestrian collision testing while the NHTSA process does not and she has opinions on that.
