Some background about that #RaspberryPi controversy where the foundation added the Microsoft repo to the sources

TL;DW: The foundation didn't make the change available to further auditing. Community got upset, mods started deleting comments on their forum about it

From the video description, to remove said changes:

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vscode.list

sudo rm /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/microsoft.gpg

sudo apt update

Truth! https://opensource.com/article/21/2/linux-art-design - kids at schools need to be using #FOSS (no $, no piracy, open file formats, etc.) tools for digital art! Using proprietary tools is great for the proprietors and limits opportunities for everyone else.

A fantastic illustration of wealth disparity in the United States. I consider myself pretty numerically savvy, but *wow* I was not prepared for this:

for reasons that ought to be obvious, we ought to run our electric system with regard to reliability and environmental impact, and not profit. But unfortunately we elected a movie star president in the '80s and there was money to be made

A friend asked me how to automatically start #GNU #Screen directly via #SSH's configuration file. Here's how to do it:

Add an entry to ~/.ssh/config similar to this one:

Host screen_on_server
Hostname server.example.org
RequestTTY yes
RemoteCommand screen -RD

and then just call

$ ssh screen_on_server

and you'll get connected to an existing screen session if present, otherwise you'll a new new one.

Should work with #tmux, too, maybe different options.

I continue to really like #rust as a programming language. Even though I'm writing more #raku these days, I still love Rust (and am writing something in it right now).

That said, it's increasingly clear to me that Rust is _primarily_ targeted at the Big Tech usecase (aka "at scale") and only secondarily interested in the Free Software usecase.

Today's news that the Rust Foundation is reserving *half* of its board seats for Big Tech provides additional confirmation.

While sex positivity can be good in some ways, it often erases ace people, those who don't want or enjoy normative sex, and people with sexual trauma.

It can come with a lot of pressure, either implicit or explicit, that people should be having sex or enjoying it, and that those who don't enjoy these activities and don't want to hear about them are not "open-minded" enough (or even worse, broken in some way).

all my theory is from Pete Seeger songs sorry academics
