@rabia_elizabeth@mefi.social All mosque's should have proper facilities for women. It is an area where the Ummah should improve upon.

What people think being "rich" is:
• Luxury vacations
• Designer clothes
• New sports car
• Big house
But it's all debt, not wealth.
Being wealthy is:
• High-quality friends
• Time freedom
• Good health
• Investments
Real wealth can't always be seen.
Stop being fooled by the illusion of wealth.
@FluentInFinance So true!!! 😭

For three days, Al Jazeera followed three families in Gaza to document how they are coping with hardly any food.

4 years ago we began helping the non-profit @gnome promote their #opensource desktop software with short animated videos. The production window is often tight, but we try to have fun. This one went live today. Enjoy! 🍿

“Netflix has switched by default from G1 to Generational ZGC on JDK 21 and later, because of the significant benefits of concurrent garbage collection.
“More than half of our critical streaming video services are now running on JDK 21 with Generational ZGC, so it’s a good time to talk about our experience and the benefits we’ve seen.”

Docusign just admitted that they use customer data (i.e., all those contracts, affidavits, and other confidential documents we send them) to train AI:
They state that customers "contractually consent" to such use, but good luck finding it in their Terms of Service. There also doesn't appear to be a way to withdraw consent, but I may have missed that.

It wouldn't surprise me if there were millions of people who gave up on the Linux desktop because of Nvidia driver issues. Thank you for solving one of the biggest hurdles in adoption. This should receive the Linux news of the year award.
One question though, how were you able to do it so quickly at such an incredibly high quality. I was surprised to see how the Zink lead developer was gushing at the quality of this driver, especially before the 1.0 release.

You can expect to see NVK show up in your favorite distro some time this year.
