Next time someone tells you border security is racist, tell them fentanyl is the number one cause of death in the US for people in the 18-45 year old age group.

Over 40,000 people in that age group died in the US from fentanyl poisoning in 2021.

Most fentanyl comes from China through Mexico. Dealers lace it into other, less harmful drugs like marijuana, so many don't know they're using it until it's too late.

It's a national security and health issue, not a racist issue.

I don’t know how to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

But I do know the first step is acknowledging each other’s humanity first, which is often missing from the solutions of the people who claim to know all the answers.

Finally, there's a patent-free vaccine developed despite the neo-liberal tunnel vision of western governments and idiot "Bill"ionaires.

Wow, #fosdem2022 has a dedicated track for FOSS on mobile devices: https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/track/foss_on_mobile_devices/

If you are interested in #linuxphones you should check out the schedule. There's so much going on in the #linuxphone space right now. 😎

I feel like @postmarketOS or @danctnix is the future for me (still running a de-googled android right now though).

One thing that stood out to me is this line from the article:

"He said that Pluton will also prevent people from running software that has been modified without the permission of developers."

Sounds a lot like DRM.

Today marks the 1000th day #Assange is detained at Belmarsh. 1000 days in maximum security prison, 1000 days without a conviction, 1000 days in a callous disregard for his most basic rights, 1000 days just to please US thirst for revenge. Enough!

I'm still looking for a #coop in Europe to join as a software developer.
Can anyone recommend one, or know of a co-op directory of sorts? Or maybe you're setting up a co-op and like an extra pair of hands to make it happen?

Boosts welcome!

I hate my web developer job. No time for unit testing, no time for documentation, no time for creativity or nice algorithms.
Just use whatever trendy JS {front,back}end framework, ship high bandwidth, heavy, soulless sites in no time.
The mere consciousness of it from my colleagues are jokes between two crypto bs talks. The climate catastrophes ahead are literally a joke to them.
I hate that I contribute to this and I want out.

Does anyone here have experience going from this kind of job to a more engineering-focused, ethical one? Tips? Interesting reads? I'd love to hear about it!

Boosts are appreciated!
