are there any #ruby #rails freelancers in this timeline (Ideally with some knowledge on the #redmine code base) here, who would be interested in helping us at #osmocom to fix some redmine bugs and write some (small) extensions? #followerpower Details at https://osmocom.org/projects/osmocom-servers/issues?f%5B%5D=tags&fields%5B%5D=tags&op%5Btags%5D=%3D&operators%5Btags%5D=%3D&set_filter=1&v%5Btags%5D%5B%5D=redmine&values%5Btags%5D%5B%5D=redmine

there is nothing i am more biased against than government run institutionalized learning facilities

abolish the DoE, homeschool your kids, start or join learning pods

schools are starter prisons where kids get beaten, sometimes to death, teachers are cruel and show porn to kids

"You don’t need a PhD to understand basic truths. In fact, these days it seems like you need to not have a PhD to understand basic truths." — Matt Walsh

Every single Republican who’s run in the last 40 years has talked about cutting the federal bureaucracy. But they never do it. So if a candidate’s plan doesn’t sound “extreme” (like they now accuse me of), then it’s not actually a plan to get the job done.

Eww. Why on Earth would you post a Linked In tracking link here instead of the actual link which goes to https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/

My sweet wife passed away from her battle with cancer today. I’d appreciate any extra prayers/thoughts if you’re able to send them my family’s way.

We shouldn’t be giving elective foreign aid to any country whose national debt per citizen is less than ours. That shouldn’t be controversial.

We’ll keep prior commitments, but shouldn’t sprinkle $$ like it’s pixie dust when we’re $33TN deep in debt.

It’s sheer lunacy that we gave more than $600mm in aid last year to Lebanon, which is basically controlled by Hezbollah, while expanding aid to Israel to fight its adversaries like Hezbollah. There’s a better way to do the arithmetic, folks. The foreign aid racket needs to end.

If @gavinnewsom banned the Proud Boys in California, it’d be a First Amendment violation.

When @rondesantis bans Students for Justice in Palestine in Florida, it’s a First Amendment violation.

SJP’s opinions are disgusting. But that’s exactly what the First Amendment protects.

Free speech doesn’t just protect the ideas we love. It protects the ideas we hate. The idiotic college “pro-Palestine” student groups are dead wrong to excuse genocidal attacks against Jews and spout disgusting anti-semitism, but one of the things that makes us different from Islamic terrorists is we don’t silence dissent. It’s a shameful political ploy for @rondesantis to ban the existence of pro-Palestinian student groups at Florida universities. It’s unconstitutional. It’s utter hypocrisy for someone who railed against left-wing cancel culture. Conservatives should be allowed to criticize BLM or vaccine mandates, and crazy liberals should be able to criticize Israel or the West even if they’re dead wrong about it. I’m well aware this isn’t a politically popular position right now, but if the government can censor who can speak vs not, the rest of it really doesn’t matter: we’re no different than those we pretend to fight.

I don't watch or listen to #FoxNews anymore, do they still hate #Trump?

I had to blog this. This is insane. One of the Reporters Spearheading the ⁦@nytimes⁩ Coverage of the War In the Middle East Loves Hitler And the Nazi’s. (No Really)
