When I started to look seriously at using Linux for my day-to-day, desktops played a big factor. All my recent Unix workstation experience had been Sun Solaris and HP CDE; my current day-to-day usage was OS/2 (by then eComStation). KDE seemed similar to Windows; Gnome seemed more like OS/2. Never tried KDE again.

@BrokenBiscuit Being ENDLESSLY PRODUCTIVE is kind of hammered into us but it in my experience that doesn't really lead to good work, ironically.

Personally, it took me a long time to unlearn it and I still go back and forth, but the best work I put out is work that comes from me being deliberate in my process instead of just banging my head when I'm not feeling it.

Who speaks for the self-employed blue collar folks? This important question has not received enough attention.

In Netherlands the battle for the self-employed construction workers is being fought between unions and an organisation for entrepreneurs.

A new article "Organizing of the self-employed in the Dutch construction sector" on Mutual Interest, a free online newspaper #coop owned by the readers and writers.

I've learned a lot from a lot of people who for various reasons never went to college. School is no measure of intelligence; it just a measure of how well you can follow orders. Too many so called progressives don't seem to know this. They want to stereotype people into categories that allow them to feel more comfortable with their world views. Then they can feel better about buying a house in the "right" neighborhood with the "right" schools.

" "Don't ever play a worker to be a fool," Jim Wright recalling his days as a steward for [FE] Local 236. " - The Long Deep Grudge by Toni Gilpin. The FE (United Farm Equipment Workers of America) was a progressive union racially integrated from the leadership in down in the mid-1930s through the mid-1950s.

The UAW used red-baiting and race-baiting to finally overcome it. Kind of like what the Democratic Party is doing to progressive movements right now.

DNC should need the quote.
