#Coronavirus: #England and #Wales #CareHome #deaths quadruple in a week | World news | The Guardian

This article shows that the headline figure is misleadingly low. It also doesn’t count deaths outside hospital due to #Covid-19

@EFFThe CFAA has to be interpreted narrowly because of the dangerous precedent it sets for internet users across the board. That's why we supported cert in this case. eff.org/deeplinks/2020/01/eff-

Oil price drops below $0

"US oil prices have turned negative, meaning that some producers are paying customers to take oil off their hands."

@fatboy Most GUIs get in the way of productivity; more designed for the common user than designed for any level of use.

OS/2's WPS has been the only GUI I was comfortable in using full time. Of course, it was fully configurable.

I've never been comfortable with Apple's GUIs (too restrictive). Microsoft Windows is just awful (always needs cygwin with X loaded). I find Gnome useable, but Linux has always been a command line first OS. The Linux GUIs are steadily improving, but...

@byllgrim@mastodon.xyz Yep. It's hard to find interesting people here. Especially if your view of interesting is "punk rock" not "pop music" levels. ;-)

@LeoSammallahti I believe I remember Bernie praising Germany's system of two paths post high school and talking about apprenticeships. Might have been in his book.

@animo Studies have shown that solar power is "contagious." When one house gets a solar roof, their neighbors all start wanting one. If you look at a map you'll see clumps of solar power where "outbreaks" have happened, not an even distribution at all

So I guess the answer is, lead the way! Show your neighbors how it's done, #solarpunk style :greensun:

Bernie endorsing Biden sends a message opposite his campaign message of "Us. Not me." If it was up to us, Bernie would run for President as an independent. In his book, he talks about how the anti-Trump strategy is a no win. Time to show more backbone .

Joe Biden has been telling progressives to fuck off. We need to respond in kind. The Democratic Party's capitalist wing needs to realize that anti-Trump is meaningless to people who won't see their life outcomes improved.

Biden hasn't thrown in support for Green New Deal, so world outcomes aren't going to be improved either.

Reconnecting with my LP collection during work from home mandate...I discovered an insert in my Neil Young Tonight's the Night album. Never realized I had an original issue copy. Bought it used many years ago, when the only metric I used was free of scratches.

The plan to create a “stewardship council” to protect nonprofit civil liberties if private equity takes over the .ORG domain is toothless, and won’t stop Ethos Capital from doing what it wants to do with nonprofits’ home on the Internet. eff.org/deeplinks/2020/04/eff-

@byllgrim@mastodon.xyz Sounds like domain pollution, or an underpowered system. In the former, GUI is intertwined with sampling, not separated (read asynchronous signals). In the latter, get new hardware or optimize all domains.
