@lps I dont know if it still true but we use to figure that by switching to linux we saved one generation of hardware upgrades to get better performance out of the programs we ran.

@tomjennings I glad you found it, it one o fthe best kept secrets of the FLOSS world. I wonder why more folks don't talk about it.I like the fact that I can kick a worthy image directly into darktable for professional image processing.

@art @pluralistic :-) spelling error, its got 2 tshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittificationen-shit-ti-fi-ca-tion its got more #syllables that some of the phrases (they dont really speak in complete sentences) used by #conservatives. Its important that we teach our young correct spelling, dont want them to grow up spelling like a conservative. #enshittification

@futurebird and just so we are clear on how a #conservativeTariffTax works; your children, with the allowance they earn for working around the house, will have to pay you that tariff tax for every glass of milk they drink until you get a cow in the back yard. You can buy one with all the extra income you will have from the tariff.#democracy is more than voting!

@ricci so this is the opposite of the old forecast;slight probability of occasional widely scattered showers over parts of northern arizona.

@xkcd a good example of using conservative logic to solve real problems.I love these cartoons, they are hitting close to real news but I think that is good, uncomfortable but good.

@art congratulation, it took me a while to tackle that too. I wish more folks would realize that ebikes are easy to work on. Its just one extra cable coming out of the rear axle. Protect that and everything else is the same.Just remember to NOT wash your bike when its upside down. There is usually a drain hole that will let water into the electronics/battery area.#ebike #bike

@art Why do you think its incompetence? The destruction of the leading democracy in the world is a corporate dream come true. Its consistent with other democracies being destroyed, think England. Corporation only want the military arm of a government, the part that controls people. The democratic part, people writing regulation and doing oversight with rule of law, only get in the corporation's way.#democracy is more than how we vote.

@Nonilex is he really rejecting the scientific reality? That implies that he reads and understands the problems and disagrees.A more likely scenario is the oil and coal corp are establish and reliable streams of bribes, kickbacks and payoff. The cleanenergy corps are smaller, and dont provide the income stream that the bigcorps do. The conservative GOP only pays attention to the folks that pay them not the folks that vote for them. #democracy is more than voting.
