Asheville is over 2,000 feet above sea level, and ~300 miles away from the nearest coastline. No place is safe from climate change.

We all suffer the consequences. We must all take action. We are all in this together.

"EV sales have not fallen, cooled, slowed or slumped. Stop lying in headlines."

"EV sales continue to rise, but the last year of headlines falsely stating otherwise would leave you thinking they haven’t. After about full year of these lies, it would be nice for journalists to stop pushing this false narrative that they could find the truth behind by simply looking up a single number for once."

Good article, more good articles

@omniprof I used to donate. However, once I discovered they are flush with cash and often don't know where to spend it I decided to send my donations to other open source projects that desperately need it like GNOME.

i've mentioned that GNOME Web nightly "feels" way better to use than Web 46, but, here's some actual numbers to put to that feeling

Web 46 vs Web nightly (47 beta) vs Firefox

@cassidy Thank you so much for taking the time to share the update! I can understand all the organization items taking some effort.

Flathub has seen amazing growth. With paid application support, this will only accelerate. It may even start encouraging proprietary vendors like Affinity to start considering supporting Linux.

The best days of Flathub has yet to come.

@tbernard @sonny The work with STF was much bigger than I thought. This presentation was amazing, thank you!
If GNOME gets approved to work with STF for another year, I hope you will share the good news with the rest of us.

@cassidy Have you heard any updates on when Flathub paid application support will be released? Last I understood a few years ago is that the code is ready but it was waiting on legal items to be worked through.

@Sharat_Chander Seeing the JVMS videos is one of my favorite activities each year. Thank you!
