Our new ISO release is here, meet Mercury
It has been a while since we released our last ISO, Endeavour Neo, and even though this new ISO comes with many improvements and technical challenges we had to tackle, like resolving issues that came with Linux kernel 6.13, the Xfce 4.20 update, sfdisk and Calamares' kpmcore, those challenges weren't the main reason for the long hiatus between Endeavour Neo and Me

@mdyer1 Hi, at the moment, there are no plans to include it. We did try to include it, but making it work goes beyond our current knowledge for now.
Hi, Thats a shame as i would really like to give this a look, but untill this is done I will not be able to give this a look. I hope this is something that could be reconsitered as this would be another opsion for blind users who want to be able to use it.

I forgot to celebrate #DillaDay on #Mastodon 😭
Let us rectify that, and this video. Dilla never had a pop hit? How about Eryka Badus "Didn't Cha know"? Or how about Q-Tips "Breathe and stop"? Well, maybe not pop hits...
Ofc he was the producer of The Pharcyde, did De La Souls "Breakadawn" and a fair deal of Slum Village...
In any case, few modern composers revolutionized modern music like he did - and you probably didn't even know how important he was.

But getting a new update on my 2019 #nvidia #sheildtv was not on my bingo card this year. I'll wait a few day to see potential bug reports, but that's pretty awesome to receive updates and features this late in the a game. The 2015 model also received an update! That's TEN YEARS!
I really wish there as a good #androidtv replacement though. I've actually just started thinking about it given it's starting to show it's age.

I will grab this torrent when I get home and make it a permanent seed, alongside the one outing nazis in Patriot Front.
Glad you said so. I completely forgot that I needed to grab this once home. It is now active. Once it's done downloading, I'll keep it seeding forever, since I have no bandwidth cap. Cheers.
Was there a mailing list or other identifying docs in that pf leak or was it just chats and stuff?
Not sure if it's the same leak, but if it's PatriotFail, it's even got videos.

Day Without Immigrants Rule Feb 3 2025?
The media in this post is not displayed to visitors. To view it, please go to the original post.
I went to a local Latino restaurant yesterday to get some takeout and saw a bunch of handwritten signs saying they were going to be closed on Monday to support the community.
The waitress said there was a movement to skip work and not spend money this Monday Feb 3 to protest the attacks on Latinos. I hadn't heard of that and didn't find much mention online. I think it's the idea by some random person in DC? I found the image above on facebook or somewhere equally horrible. Anyway I'm just posting bc this is the only protest I've seen in my area, the Democrats have been completely silent so all that's left is some rando on the other side of the country.

A day will not accomplish anything I fear. Our attention spans for news is like 2 days before we get bored and move on. Expand it to a week for anything meaningful.
but that many days off would be risky for the working immigrants. One day can be afforded much more easily. More needs strike pay. Also, give more notice. This is in less than 12 hours
Agreed, tho that's the least of the problems; the event is not very well advertised and poorly planned in general. But it's SOMETHING. The Democrats are doing nothing so far. Indivisible is just suggesting we contact Senators.

I’ve seen these flying fish clips before and afraid I always suspect a member of the film crew has thrown it for effect. I don’t think the impact from a small fish would be enough to throw somebody to the ground.

Thrown fish or not, the high-pitched scream as the icey wave hit and the delayed life-vest inflation make this giggle worthy.
I hope that there were some warm blankets and a car waiting, otherwise that would have been a chilly ride home.
ICE is having a hard time meeting their quotas because of campaigns telling people their rights and how to resist raids.

A 3-year old, his mother, & his grandmother were speaking Spanish while shopping at a dept store. They’re US citizens from Puerto Rico, but were taken by ICE.
It wasn’t until they were in detention that the mother was allowed to produce ID & birth certificates.
“I’m so sorry,” she was told.

well Trump did say they would only be deporting criminals, and the only possible reason for a three-year-old, his mother and his grandmother to be speaking Spanish was that they’re planning a bank heist.

Years ago, Google caught Microsoft scraping their search results for spelling corrections.

They called it the "Bing sting". No one cared.

well, technically the x-33 would be single-stage (I don't know if it would count as a rocket though)

It counts as a rocket, but it fails to disprove the "moon landing was staged" claim because it was only suborbital. The differences in ΔV between suborbital, LEO, and lunar transfer orbit are vast.

I don’t care which weekday you think is right or wrong, this is already underway. We need to support it, not bash it.
NO day is a “lame choice.” EVERY action is a good one.
If you’re not happy with it, like I said, organize another one. We need it. We need a lot more of it.
And speaking of attitude, maybe rethink your own choice of words.
See ya.

Do you just want D. gone?
Or do you want other stuff?
Like reforming your voting system?

No, we have to fight fascism, not a man. Voting rights are only one of their targets.

If you continue to disable and w/hold, it gives us leverage as a people.
Please look up “general strikes”

in reply to Laffy • • •I thought there was some agenda I wasn't aware of yet. It sounded fancy.
Yes, a general strike is a good idea.
(Just make sure there is a plan for afterwards. Or if it fails.)

in reply to Toni Aittoniemi • • •@gimulnautti How is it a plant to call for a general strike on ANY day.
If people want a different day, then organize a second one.
Take the win, people. General strike is a win.
