Nurses went on strike.

Then graduate students.

Then school teachers.

Now it’s hotel employees, writers, and actors.

UPS drivers and auto workers may be next.

Many strikes, similar story:

Workers are sick and tired of billionaires and corporations hoarding wealth and power.

Still can’t get over the fact that an editor of the Financial Times said that we need to do away with #capitalism in order to deal with the #climate. If that’s no a sign of mainstream economics/finance finally waking up to the reality of the situation we’re in, I don’t now what is.

Found time to work on this again: a new conversation view using one webview. Current code uses a webview per message.

Geary 44 has just been released, I hope to finish this for Geary 45.

This is REALLY important.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment and counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Let that sink in. It costs less than accepting homelessness.

Love their "Corporate greed life cycle" image. We've all been through this cycle with tech companies that used to offer really cool products.

we now have flatpak builds (CI) for both x86 & ARM!!

We're trying to get as many core apps as possible updated to the new Libadwaita widgets for 45 (ToolbarView, NavigationView, SplitView)!

This is the initiative issue, help on any of the missing apps would be appreciated: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Initiat

13.000 cyclists demonstrated against #Berlin new conservative senator’s decision to stop (and potentially scrap) ongoing infrastructure changes that would have improved the safety of cyclists and pedestrians and contributed to reaching environmental targets.

13.000 people.
7km of streets continuously filled with cyclists.
And you barely hear about it in the news.

13.000 is a big number.
Imagine 13.000 SUVs with a flat tire: would we hear more about it in the news?

#BikeTooter #AutoKorrektur

Ever notice how forgiving loans is suddenly a big problem when students get much-needed relief, but nobody blinks an eye when the richest 20% of American households get their PPP loans forgiven? Or when corporations are handed billions in subsidies?

now that almost all #gnome apps support mobile, it's time to rethink tiling window management you cowards

Another day, another year’s worth of CO2 used by someone who claims they care about the environment (because saying that makes him more money).

Libreboot 20230625 released!

libreboot.org/news/libreboot20

Brief summary of changes since 20230423 release:

* Massive build system audit, bugs fixed. Cleaner BSD-like coding style now used for much of the logic.
* Two new boards (HP 2570p and 8300 USDT)
* Microcode-free ROMs available, as alternative to default ROMs that include it.
* gru-* chromebook fixes: more reliable boot/shutdown
* Better error handling in lbmk
* Forked spkmodem-recv from GNU, *pledged* it and re-wrote in OpenBSD coding style

As if I needed another reason to love #Warp. It paints the loading bar in rainbow colors for #pridemonth.
This means a lot. Thank you!
#gnome #magicwormhole #filesharing #happypride

Updated to InfiniTime 1.13 (github.com/InfiniTimeOrg/Infin) using ITD. Looking forward to the improved battery life.
