Introducing BootSelector, GUI utility to set grub default boot entry
BootSelector is a tiny GUI utility for setting any grub menu entry as default.
It also allows you to reboot into any OS/kernel in your grub menu.
The initial version has been tested on the latest Ubuntu 24.10 and should work on other Debian-based distributions as well.
An RPM for fedora will be released soon after more testing is done.

With Trump's Re-Election, a Venezuela Invasion Could Be On the Cards
As Trump assembles a team of pro-war hardliners, concerns grow in Caracas that the administration could pursue military action against Venezuela, including an Iraq-style invasion.Alan Macleod (MintPress News)
don't like this
I mean joking aside, that's what this means yes. It's a common negotiation tactic. It's like the businessman who comes into a meeting saying he's never had to sell so the price is going to be very high.
But yes, this also matches up with the joke that whatever Russia says, believe the opposite. Except in this particular case it's literally part of the art of negotiations. Not the Trump book.
The Holy hand grenade skit and the French guy skit were all about negotiations and concessions.
It's not 3 and definitely not 6
and the French sent gifts from their kitchen which was quite generous of them
What's the Russia equivalent of trebuchet'ing a kitchen sink?
From the Russians POV, there really isn't anyone on the other side of the table.
All the Russians need to do is say, Trump get your own house in order 1st.
So this conflict isn't ever going to come out with a gift wrapped bow on it.
Really the question is, how long is the media going to wait for that tied ribbon to arrive?
Is it like fusion energy, always only 20 years away?
What about legislating that insurance companies must be non-profits
If they can't take a profit they need to spend their premiums. If the premiums are too high they need to be generous, if razor tight they need to be fair, too low they'd be sued out of existence

That didn’t work at Nuremberg, either, and it’s not so uncommon for the CEO to be on the board.
It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.
Hey, let's not discredit the amazing work that Brian Thompson accomplished as CEO! Before his joining UnitedHealthCare in 2022, their denial rate was 8%. Then, only one short year later, he managed to successfully drive that denial rate up to almost 28%! As the UnitedHealthCare conglomerate served some 122 million Americans that year, you can easily discern that Brian Thompson was directly responsible for ensuring that ~24 million Americans had their claims denied. Imagine how much less UHC would have made for their investors if they had to pay an addition 24 million American's health care claims!
So before giving all the credit to the board members and share holders, let's take a moment to understand exactly how hard Brian Thompson worked to ensure some ~24 million Americans went without doctor-approved medical support that they previously were entitled to.
All this data is publically available on Wikipedia, by the way.
Just billionaires/millionaires?
If it's a matter of culling parasites, everyone down to about middle-manager level should be included IMHO.
