@derpostillon Die Vordenker in den USA sind da schon weiter:

Seriously, don’t ever tell me “conservatives” are good with the economy again. There’s been a ton of evidence for a really long time that it’s obviously not true, enough that people who’ve claimed it at any point should be embarrassed — but it’s so horribly clear now that the claim should make you angry.

Reminder of who funds Project 2025.

"Bradley, Coors, Koch, Scaife, Seid, and Uihlein — all have long histories of fighting for financial and environmental deregulation."

These are the half dozen dynasties ending American democracy for their own greed & ideology.

I think reporting out how the unpopulated penguin islands landed on the tariff list would probably answer a lot more questions than just that one.

I'm sure Booker intended to filibuster the genocide and vote in favor of some other bill, and just got confused. Yeah, that must be it...

@lwriemen I didn't mean it was brilliant in terms of making anything better. I mean it's exactly the kind of 11th dimensional chess move that the right dreams of doing, by forcing the left to have to explain how capitalism is supposed to work and how This Is Very Much Not That before they can start in on Why Capitalism Is Bad, Actually

Protip: There are a ton of creative commons licensed art, photos, etc. available with just a little searching. Therefore, you NEVER need to use an AI generated image to liven up your website or article.

Leading the charge: how a drive for electric vehicles is cleaning up #Nepal - https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2025/apr/04/nepal-kathmandu-health-air-pollution-who-transport-electric-vehicles- "With air pollution causing a fifth of deaths in Nepal, growing EV use could add nearly three years to #Kathmandu residents’ lives" excellent news

I'd like to understand how Android handles some QMI bits and found tooling by @joelselvaraj for that on the @postmarketOS wiki (https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Modem_Debugging). That needs a patched Android kernel, so I took some notes how I got that to work on a Pixel 3a. Just in case this is useful to others: https://honk.sigxcpu.org/con/Booting_an_Android_custom_kernel_on_a_Pixel_3a_for_QMI_debugging.html

“Just press and hold the buttons on both sides. Remember that. Try it now. Don’t just memorize it, internalize it, so that you’ll be able to do it without much thought while under duress, like if you’re confronted by a police officer. Remember to do this every time you’re separated from your phone, like when going through the magnetometer at any security checkpoint, especially airports. As soon as you see a metal detector ahead of you, you should think, ‘Hard-lock my iPhone.’”

You just know that this is true, don't you.
