"The bipartisan funding bill I just signed keeps the government open and delivers the urgently needed disaster relief that I requested for recovering communities as well as the funds needed to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge.

Discovery scene. We have 2 pictures. First is a close up on Tilly, a red haired female Starfleet officer who is looking kind of blankly or stubbornly about whatever it is she is looking at. Picture two is another close up shot of a sitting cat, a Maine Coon cat, who is staring back presumably at Tilly with one of those Randy Marsh kind of "what? yyou wanna go?" kind of looks. No captions.

In case you missed it, Window Maker Live was updated last week and is based on Debian bookworm. It integrates with the GNUStep desktop environment. Here it is running on my almost 20 year old ThinkPad T43p (released April 2005) this afternoon. There is an amd64 and an i686 version available. The developer has tested it on a T23 with 1GB of RAM.

Window Maker Live running on a ThinkPad T43p at a resolution of 1600x1200. This is a GNUStep-like environment. In the screenshot, the desktop wallpaper is an indigo gradient from dark to purple, in observation of Winter Solstice. There are three applications running: a web browser, a GNUStep Terminal, and the GNUStep Chess application. All three applications have early 90's NeXTStep style widgets and scrollbars. There are multiple open menus on the desktop, as well as a NextStep-style dock on the right side. The terminal is running the neofetch command. It reveals that this is a Debian GNU/Linux 12 base, running on i686 architecture. This is a ThinkPad T43p running the latest 6.10.11 backport kernel. The processor is an Intel Pentium M 2.26GHz with one core. The GPU is an AMD ATI Mobility FireGL V3200. There are 2GB of RAM available, of which one GB is in use. The web browser shows the Mastodon account of user jdkiser@sdf.org.

Man, corporations really want to put a stop to libraries:

cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/otta…

"Depending on the title, public libraries may pay two or three times more for an e-book than they pay for its print edition. In some cases, the e-book may be up to six times the price, librarians told CBC."

"Those publishers ... will often license copies of e-books for just 12 or 24 months. Once that licence expires, libraries must repurchase access to the same book." #canada #cdnpoli #books
