Trump is absolutely going to make ByteDance sell TikTok or shut down again.
Here he is talking about it during today’s big data center announcement, with Larry Ellison, Sam Altman, and Masa Son standing in the room with him.
Extreme First Amendment issues with having the government own a social platform aside, it’s striking how he keeps talking about “permits” even though nothing in the TikTok bill has anything to do with permits. Once a real-estate guy, always a real-estate guy, I suppose.

I decided to put Gentoo Linux on my 2013 Chromebook Pixel with MrChromebox.tech to replace the GalliumOS install that is now no longer maintained.
GalliumOS is basically an old version of Ubuntu with XFCE and some x86 Chromebook tweaks. I copied the scripts and systemd service file that enable zram (swap to compressed RAM instead of disk) with LZ4 compression. With that enabled, I can build packages with 2 concurrent jobs in 4GB RAM with Gentoo's KDE desktop running!

I’ve been thinking about this anonymously produced RPG for practicing anti-authoritarian tactics since I ran into it last week.
It dovetails well with my general sense that acting extremely normal online and off is probably a strong move for most people at this time.
