Mental preparation for #Linux #Kernel Maintainers Summit and #LinuxPlumbers2024:
✅ Relax brain by performing an #ObstacleCourseRun (OCR) right before the conference week[1], just like it did the last time before I visited those conferences.
[1] this was at #MudMasters Northern Germany 2024 yesterday; the timing was just a coincidence, it's OCR season currently here: this was my third ORC within the past six weeks; and I miss a fourth, which is the nicest one, due to the conferences. 🫤
This is the 3rd or 4th #Nextcloud update in a row that has been rolled out to the "stable" channel and introduced new bugs that didn't exist before. Shit's getting kind of old; I'm gonna start looking for alternatives. I don't mind fixing things, but I don't want to have to keep fixing them over and over when I'm supposed to be in the "stable" update channel.

I just wrote a news update post on reddit sharing what is new in the world of #GOG and #EpicGames for the world of #Linux on the #SteamDeck. Even a little #gaming news in general there.
I shared this in the #JunkStore sub-reddit. Junk Store has become my fav plugin to play Epic and GOG games - for me it 'just works'

Give it a read if you're at all interested!

“Good #christian folk”…
Those self-professed…charitable, forgiving & righteous…FRAUDS.
Reveal themselves as #maga hypocrites…
#evangelicals …w/no love for their neighbor.
NOT following the #10commandments THEY insisted be plastered in public schools…
Epitomizes the futility of their sanctimonious, unconstitutional laws.
You cannot “force faith” anymore than you can buy #honor & #respect
The community of #springfield are reminding us to…combat #hate w/#love

I'll posit a lot of Indian immigration is H1B visas. Tech and/or medical.

in reply to wb x64 • • •But also, countless desperate people from all over the world go to Panama so Colombian drug cartels can smuggle them across the Darien Gap, and then they go through Central America to the southern border.

Not being able to feed your kids is a pretty damn good reason to leave your country.
