GrowingSideways··on Iran is likely jamming Starlink
Yes, this is why it happens only on the front line
GrowingSideways··on Gentoo Linux 2025 Review
Red hat certainly burns a lot of money in service of horrifyingly bad people. It's nice we get good software out of it, but this is not a funding model to glorify. And of course american businesses not producing open source is the single most malignant force on the planet.
GrowingSideways··on Overdose deaths are falling in America because of a 'supply shock': study

Intellectual property was kind of a gimmick to begin with, though. Let's not pretend like copyright and patents made any sense to begin with
GrowingSideways··on Why I left iNaturalist

If they had something to contribute they would have figured a label to slap on

GrowingSideways··on US Job Openings Decline to Lowest Level in More Than a Year
The CTO, obviously.
GrowingSideways··on ICE Is Going on a Surveillance Shopping Spree
I'm about 1000x more concerned with gangs of armed thugs kidnapping & murdering my neighbors than I am about criminals.
GrowingSideways··on ICE Is Going on a Surveillance Shopping Spree
ICE doesn't have any shortage of blatantly illegal behavior to point to. I don't think many people realize how far gone the rule of law is already.
