#Lifehack: buy Linux-compatible equipment, even if you are not running #linux, because

1. The device adheres to open standards without tricks or drivers. It is portable. This is the gold standard for plug-and-play.

2. If a driver is conceptually necessary, see if a linux version exists. If yes,
it means that someone loved the device enough to do the work for free.

Follow the love, my friend.

@glightly I used to think abortion was wrong, til my wife's friend stayed over after getting a late flight back to Ireland from England after having to travel to get an abortion.

Now, I'm every person who can get pregnant should be able to choose to not be pregnant

What's a fairly large issue you were persuaded to change your mind on (either by your own experience or by the argument/s of others)? Please boost for reach.

Inspired by Cyberpunk 2077, which I finally finished, here's a wee piece of music I composed.

This is only possible if the work they were meant to be doing was unimportant garbage, anyway. Truly.

Big tech now arguing that the platforms they’ve built can’t be held accountable for e.g. racism, as racism has been around for all of human history. Well yes, you know what else has? Nipples. Interesting how easy those were to ban, but racism? “Content moderation is just *so* hard!”

Get the fuck out of here.

Elon is really nailing the rebranding.

Anyone else watch porn and catch yourself wondering “Is that a UK or EU plug socket next to them?” or “Did they Scotchgard that white couch first?”

Of course you do.

As the song on the radio played, Arnold couldn’t help but wonder if this poor Taylor Swift girl would ever find true happiness. He made a mental note to send her one of his tennis balls when he got home.

I’ve spent much of this year examining car bloat, the process through which smaller vehicles are being replaced by increasingly massive SUVs and trucks.

What I’ve learned: Huge cars are terrible for society, often in ways that are hidden.

Some basic facts:
◆ >80% of US car sales are now trucks/SUVs.
◆ Models keep expanding. For example, the F-150 is now ~800 lbs heavier and 7 inches taller than in 1991.
◆ EVs can make the problem worse due to huge batteries.

“We just lost the World Cup by a millimetre,” said Naeher, who also scored a penalty in the shootout.

Maximum respect to USA, who are out of the World Cup but who did apparently manage to learn the metric system during their time here. Well done.

@onthisday Perfect opportunity to rember the simultaneously best and worst job description caption the news has ever used.

Today in 1991, 32 years ago: at CERN, Tim Berners-Lee brings the first web server online.
