"The Department of Government Efficiency" is not a department.

"Full self-driving" is not fully self-driving.

I'm detecting a theme here.

Reminds me of Farage getting de-banked.

It was later revealed that Farage's account was closed in part as Coutts felt that his beliefs and values did not align with theirs. In an internal dossier, Coutts wrote that he "is at best seen as xenophobic and pandering to racists" and considered a "disingenuous grifter".

  1. Buy a share in a publicly-traded insurance company.
  2. At a shareholder meeting, ask if the company has factored increased political risk, vandalism, arson, third-party damage from arson, etc into its premium calculations for: Tesla owners; Tesla showrooms; Tesla charging stations; car parks that even have Teslas in them; any other conceivably exposed company or individual.
  3. Repeat with every other insurance company.
  4. Repeat said concerns in every other possible medium (is there a Lemmy community for insurance actuaries?)
  5. Sit back and watch people and businesses scramble to avoid "the Tesla tax" of ever-increasing insurance premiums.

The clue is in the word: drop sabots/clogs into things.

Sabots/clogs are:

  • organic
  • renewable
  • recyclable

And they store, rather than release, carbon. The eco-friendliest sabotage is sabots!

Historically, people didn't have easy access to multiple forms of birth control.

But then they've already started working on that: Dobbs, period policing, "NO CONDOMS FOR GAZA!!!"

I noticed a distinct lack of Tragedeigh-style names.

Maybe we need more Paydons and Jaedins in government.

Zen: On one machine, Flatpak. On the other, AppImage through AM. Firefox: Mint-maintained version from Mint repo (deb).

I can't remember the exact differences between Firefox upstream and Mint version. But I believe Mint began maintaining their own deb at a time when upstream Ubuntu was only offering Firefox as a snap, which Mint is against, and Mozilla hadn't yet begun offering their own deb repo.

No package for my distro, I "installed" an AppImage with AM (which is also how I discovered it)

I've been using the Firefox mod Zen Browser on Linux Mint. When Firefox released an update in February, my Zen had it the next day. People depending on the "official" Firefox were left waiting over a week, with multiple threads in the forums asking "when is it coming?"

Also when I looked into mods updates for a critical security fix in November, practically all the mods had updated within 24 hours of FF's update. (Exceptions: Midori and Mercury.) https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2554267&sid=4f140800c5d62939af8e6394514b9aab#p2554267

"Zen is no good if you care about privacy."

How so?
