Trump on the possibility of 100% tariffs for all countries buying Russian energy: “I’ve never named a percentage, but we’ll be doing quite a lot of this. We’ll see what happens in the next fairly short period. Yes, they have a meeting tomorrow, we have a meeting with Russia tomorrow. We’ll see what happens, and then make a decision.”
Bloodied Faces, Sobbing Children: #Immigration Officers Smash Car Windows to Speed Up Arrests
==
We’ve documented nearly 50 incidents of immigration officers shattering car windows to make arrests — a tactic experts say was rarely used before #Trump took office.

You can judge for yourself.

Thanks to Russian murderers: Sofiia, Mykyta, and their 2-year-old son—all just 23 years old—were killed by a Russian strike on Kyiv on July 31. They had fled Sloviansk at the start of the full-scale war, rented an apartment in the capital, and were killed when a Russian missile hit their building. Their bodies were found under the rubble a day later. Sofiia was pregnant with their second child.

@phoronix not sure I like that direction, there are plenty of cases or modern systems that only support EFI, e.g. install Linux on a MacPro T2 with Intel chip. Runs only with EFI boot (Ubuntu installed in my case)
Fedora Considers Reducing The Scope That BIOS Systems Can Hold Up A Release
Given that non-UEFI BIOS systems are quite old at this point and Intel/AMD systems for the past number of years have all supported UEFI, another change proposal being considered this week by Fedoa Linux is limiting the release-blocking status of various (non-UEFI) BIOS systems...

Difficult to explain how completely incomprehensible this headline would have been a decade ago.
