#Linux compatibility and performance on the desktop are so much better today than they have ever been.
Unless you have a compelling reason to run #Windows, you are missing out on a lot of performance, easy maintenance and actual freedom (from being nagged and advertised to death, among other things).
Especially in a world where so much happens in the browser, why subject yourself to Windows?

We did it! We did it?
@veilfire35@mastodon.social has been suspended off the @mastodon.social platform, but we all know that he can just jump to another instance.
Reach out and thank @Mastodon (the admins for that instance) for listening to us and helping to keep Mastodon safe for everyone.
In the meantime, if we work together, we can push people like veilfire35 into their own instance so we can all defederate them. Baby steps?
This feels a bit more than that.
Maybe it's the first step to something else.
“A lot of students who want to do engineering, they want to do robots,” said chair of UW’s civil engineering department, Bart Nijssen. “Nothing against that, but that is the image they have of civil engineering at times, that it’s not really thought of as something, let’s call it, sexy.”
But like producing movies (good or bad), civil engineering often shows us at our best in terms of total cooperation.
No civil engineers, no civilization.

$10 Trillion in Added US Debt Since 2001 Shows 'Bush and Trump Tax Cuts Broke Our Modern Tax Structure'
https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-bush-tax-cuts-fuel-growing-deficits
How far before we break? This mindless 40 year mantra of blindly cutting taxes from the #GOP to get themselves elected produced our first post WWII debt which has been growing ever since. Zero successful attempts to change course cause having all that money for some is so nice. I see a bad end to this. 🔥🤔
