I think it's going to be more important than ever that #Mastodon and the #fediverse are not centrally operated out of the US unlike almost every other social media platform out there.

It baffles me that 67 million Americans can vote for a convicted felon and rapist. In hindsight it's amusing anyone thought there was some kind of blackmail tape someone had on that man. I figure about the only thing that can defeat him is his McDonalds diet at this point.

I feel very smug. You know how backups you have not tested are useless? Well I bought a new SSD and before I install it in it's final location I installed it in my laptop to see if I could restore it from backup.
I can and I've learnt some things about restoring ubuntu systems.
- You better have a USB disk to boot from. If your only computer is toast you can't download one so make sure you already have one.

‘Libbing out’ is the latest irony-fueled coping mechanism
"“Libbing out" is an ironic embrace of mainstream Democratic politics, often by disillusioned young progressives. It is the process of abandoning all cynicism and wholeheartedly accepting the elitist, corporate-owned, deeply out of touch Democratic party, even if only for a moment."
Today, we are all Rachel Maddow. https://www.usermag.co/p/permission-to-lib-out

“Since 1998, election polls in presidential, House, Senate and governor’s races have diverged from the final vote tally by an average of six percentage points… 2022 midterm elections, that average error was 4.8 points… if the polls are underestimating Ms. Harris by 4.8 points in each of the seven swing states, she would win every one of them… If those same polls underestimate Mr. Trump by the same margin, he would win all the battleground states...”

If you are already using Debian in your organization, and are running current Debian stable or older releases, you might be aware of the Long Term Support available for them.
But do you know why it is equally important to support Debian unstable development?

To keep my American brain from exploding today, here are some remarkable new deep-space images from JWST.
First, a celestial smash-up. JWST's infrared eyes reveal cold dust that forms the "skeleton" of these colliding galaxies, known as IC 2163 and NGC 2207.

I will try not to say anything else about uspol today, but here's a little reminder that politics describes not just voting or partisanship, but the interlocking systems through which power is exercised, by whom, and to what ends. Voting is one of those systems, and so is partisanship, but so are soup kitchens, and needle exchanges, and zoning hearings, and commerce, and on and on. Voting is entry-level political engagement. if you're fired up about the state of things, look for your next step.
