Yep, this hit me back on 21 July on #Fedora. On the way out the door for work, laptop took too long to shut down, so I held the power button for 5 seconds. Got to work and it wouldn't boot. Thankfully, the CachyOS forums had an easy fix. #Linux #btrfs

The UK’s Online Safety Act is being sold as a way to protect children. But instead, UK politicians are pushing sweeping censorship and forcing platforms to implement invasive age checks. This is not safety–it's surveillance.
