Oh… that kind of firefighting.
To my mind, Linux used to be a niche alternative to Windows, but it’s grown a lot and I forsee it becoming the default alternative to MacOS. I think Windows is done as a platform in the short-medium term.


To save some clicks:
Sadly, actor Ron Glass, who played Shepherd Book, passed away in 2016. This will presumably necessitate a single recast


you want us to take to the skies
Lol you think you’re getting one?

This forecast of extremes comes as weather whiplash has already hit much of the East. On Wednesday, Washington, D.C., residents walked around in shorts in record-breaking 86 degrees Fahrenheit (about 30 C). On Thursday, it snowed.
I just can’t fathom how most people can experience things like that without thinking twice about it. Sounds akin to a biblical plague.

Germany looks set to move backwards on climate policy but with the slowdown in the German economy the emissions may fall anyway…


This is the result of two decades of deliberate, calculated effort by the largest technology companies on earth to turn users into consumers, instruments into appliances, and technical literacy into a niche hobby for weirdos.
Has there ever been a time when computer geeks weren’t consider a weird group of outsiders?
BTW, I was raised on MS-DOS and it didn’t help my computer literacy one bit (heheh). I still can barely navigate my computer in the CLI, much less build anything or do anything cool from some internalized “mental model” of how a computer works.

The dude literally has a 100 trillion dollars, it’s fine
Damn, that’s some billionaire thinking right there


Good link!
It is more fucked that the exploitation is targeted at kids, but it also really mirrors the general scammyness of the online economy at large (i.e. a gold rush with a few winners making it big and millions working for free hoping they’ll eventually tap in to a big ore that’ll make the platform rich and pay them a pittance).

People’s main takeaway from this headline is going to be we that we haven’t reached the limit (this is fine.jpg)

Discussing the 1.5C limit is climate numerology at this point


Man whose mega corportion donated to Trump’s inauguration says [Trump talking point].

Oil has been kinda shit though because of really low oil prices for a long time, evilness not withstanding.
