I'm doing a clearance sale of the Libreboot 9020. *Heavy* price reduction:
minifree.org/product/libreboot…
I'll have two new products in November, but I still have a lot of 9020 in the lab. *All 9020's must go!*
The base 16GB RAM and 240GB SSD Libreboot 9020 setup with i5 is £138, plus shipping/VAT.
It's quite a nice Haswell (Intel 4th gen) machine with free initialisation including raminit.
Libreboot preinstalled, replacing proprietary BIOS/UEFI. Your choice of Linux/BSD setup (Debian by default).

Mohsen Mahdawi, a Palestinian studying philosophy at Columbia University in NYC, tells TRT World that his school is complicit in Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, the apartheid imposed by Tel Aviv in the occupied West Bank and the bloodshed committed in Lebanon.
He tells TRT World that Columbia leaders keep strong financial ties with Israel and that pro-Palestine groups on campus have constantly experienced systemic discrimination in the past 12 months.

Ich habe gerade eben seinen Artikel im CJR gelesen.

Bravo👏
PS Bei uns kann man mit wenigen Ausnahmen (Arte, 3sat) dem ÖRR dieses journalistische Versagen konstatieren.

Every few weeks I feel inspired to start my own Mastodon server.
Then I remember I'm unemployed and can't afford hosting and my google workspace bill is already painful with two user accounts.
Oh, I really should've started using #Python's `pathlib` module instead of `os.path` sooner. I didn't realise it's been standard since Python 3.4!

Showing solidarity with people in Gaza has become risky in Germany.
Artists, writers, street protesters have been cancelled, silenced or arrested. Some even lost their jobs after expressing anger against Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
It’s part of what Germany sees as its historical responsibility to support Israel unconditionally.

I asked 23andMe to delete my data. Here is my adventure!
After failing their super secure "tell us your birthday" additional check, I emailed customer support. They asked for a copy of my ID which I refused to give them, telling them that two-factor auth should be enough and that I live in the EU. They then replied agreeing to delete my data but that by law (!) they had to keep my samples and test results. I'm married to a lawyer, so I asked @AugustB to look into it:

in reply to Jeff Jarvis • • •Inform. Do not write editorials. Tell us what the issues are. Both sides have made their positions clear. If they haven't whispered them in your ear, it is your job to find out what they are. Caution, you may need advise of a psychologist to find out what TFG said. On the other hand, if you don't understand, let the people know what he really said and not what you thought he meant by what he said. That is not your job.

in reply to Nonya Bidniss 🥥🌴 • • •it's a fact we have to deal with and never forget that there may not be enough swing state voters to elect a woman president yet. that's why it might have been safer to keep joe biden in his dotage as the democratic nominee, something that the idiots at the nytimes and elsewhere probably didn't consider when they decided he couldn't run. but now it is what it is. can't say they're wrong because everyone gets to vote on whatever basis they want.
