Post (from X):

The Berkeley Repertory Theater (Bay Area, CA) has mandatory masked events on Sundays and Tuesdays.

This is inclusiveness. This is a community care.

Vulnerable people deserve to experience life, too.

Election Activism Idea:

Brand the #MAGA candidates.

Make sure that people know every downballot MAGA candidate.

Brand their signs with MAGA stickers.

Call out people campaigning for then.

Make MAGA be the slur that they have earned.

Weird > Creepy & Weird > Cringe > Pariah

They are free to be MAGA under their rock.

There are pieces of Art a Person can experience that split you in two.

There is the You Before and the You After.*

Do you have a piece of art that Fractured your Sense of You?

A Film / Image / Poem / Book / Comic / Text / Song / Animation / Game / Photograph / Object / Any Piece of Art -

Where you just know that *this* is the delineating point that marks a Before and After?

[ I am increasingly finding it hard to communicate with people who don't understand this concept.]

"Under Obama, from 2013 through 2016, real GDP growth averaged 2.5% per quarter. Under Trump, during the three years before COVID hit, it averaged 2.8%. Including COVID, GDP growth under Trump averaged 2.4%," per YF.

After unlocking my login keyring through the terminal (echo $password | gnome-keyring-daemon --unlock), I can't unlock it through the popup dialog anymore. I think it's because echo prints out a newline and there is no newline in the password field? How does this even happen? Unlocking changed it???

Also I need to type my old password in seahorse to change the keyring password even if it's already unlocked.

And I can't find a terminal command to change the keyring password.

This @geerlingguy@mastodon.social video has inspired me to install #Linux on my old 2017 #MacBook Air but I'm wondering what's a good distro/DE combo for it?

I could just install #EndeavourOS + #KDEPlasma 6 on it, similar to all my other daily drivers but I kinda want something different and perhaps more lightweight, without diminishing usability/friendliness.

Would also like to avoid distros with #Snap installed by default or those with meh package managers/software repo with barely any popular packages on it by default so #Ubuntu variants are probably a no-go. Any recs?

Today, 17 September 2024, is National Voter Registration Day in the USA.

According to U.S. Census data from 2020, as many as 1 in 4 eligible Americans are not registered to vote. Every year, millions of Americans find themselves unable to vote because they miss a registration deadline, don’t update their registration, or aren’t sure how to register.
