"So I give billions in their health care money to American beer companies but my Conservative base in Quinte will still vote for me because they always vote Conservative. And I will be retired and a director of a land development company when they realize they can't get the medical care they need as a result!"

Thanks @klaatu
I'm currently trying this to make use of a Raspberry Pi 1 as a flatbed scanner interface.
Analyst suggests Redmond's internal distro may one day fly the coop
#AzureLinux was known as #CBLMariner before it was rebranded, and thank your lucky stars that happened in 2023. Lately, it would probably end up being called Copilot for Linux or something similar.

Go on a Walk With the Real-Life Master Roshi and His Giant Tortoise Friend, No Dragon Balls in Sight.
A 69-year-old funeral director and his 26-year-old pet tortoise are living proof that the internet can still provide joy

This is charming and delightful. No cap.
I am wondering if he will have another friend after his pet Roshi passes. He is so young.

"Replay in Neon – Landscapes in Phase
Widescreen cinematic instrumental electronica with incredible presence and frequent surprises. Full of sharp-edged electronic timbres, hard-hitting drum machine rhythms and a laboratory-clean aesthetic that calls back to the storied past of electronic music while keeping its eyes on the future. This sounds a bit like a mashup of classic Kraftwerk/Tangerine Dream and old-school industrial/EBM, with a dash of first wave techno thrown in for good measure, but all calibrated to modern ears. The tracks are long, but they cover a lot of territory over their runtime, so the chances you’ll get bored are basically nil – wait a minute and something new will happen!"
Really appreciate this from @etherdiver at etherdiver.com/2024/09/13/opm-…
Another private company attempting to claim a public resource for itself... This time, radio spectrum.
EFF: NextNav’s Callous Land-Grab to Privatize 900 MHz
"..Left by the FCC for use by amateur radio operators, unlicensed consumer devices, and industrial, scientific, and medical equipment, this spectrum has become a hotbed for new technologies and community-driven projects. Millions of consumer devices also rely on the range, including baby monitors, cordless phones, IoT devices, garage door openers. But NextNav would rather claim these frequencies, fence them off, and lease them out to mobile service providers...."

in reply to MidgePhoto • • •Depends. Up to a point it would be easy to find such things or monitor any telemetry. The company is actually a decentish FOSS citizen. Unlike many Chinese companies, for instance, which don't release source code at all.
I think moving substantial or significant workloads to AzLin might result in it growing up as a server OS very rapidly.
I don't think they're going to do a desktop distro, but who knows...
