In 5 months Israel extracted 2 hostages through bombing Gaza while killing 30,000 Palestinians.

Meanwhile diplomatic negotiations during the temporary ceasefire led to the release of 136 hostages & 0 Palestinians killed.

Yes diplomacy. No killing. Stop this atrocity.

Dear before breakfast friends, :ablobcouple:

Why use, not use or amuse hardware? :ablobsunglasses:

Here is my from Windows to Linux user, be interested in 'earing yours? :abloblurk:

I am with many of Linux. The first one I tried was which I installed from an already out dated . It took me 5 weeks to sort of get a browser ( I seem to remember) on half the screen. I was and my computer friends looked at this rather pathetic display with pity and . What madness was this? :byebrows:

I continued, getting Linux Magazine and realising I could barely understand 5% of what was being discussed.

I was a beginner again. So began with very condescending 'help' from the penguinated.

However ...

One pre alpha distro was able to provide me with advice on my numerous . Eventually I settled on using this distro, once I got it working at speed. Puppy Linux. :ablobdancer:

was small, VERY fast and continually different. As far as I was concerned if a distro was slow, why not use Windows or Apple? :ablobslurp:

I still distro hopped but worked very hard for much of the required donkey work for Puppy. I was by programming languages but not much of a programmer. So it was mainly , and helping , which is were Puppy became much friendlier and usable. 🤣

After many , too many to go into I am now using a rolling release, , for my Pi's and one olde computer with Puppy. Barry Kauler who created Puppy is now working on . However I am retired from new experimental distros. Now I prefer my Windows free as I move towards . Free and Open Source Software.

Quite a ride ... How is yours going? :_stars:

3 months ago I couldn’t raise the difference between my income & the money I need to… I guess stay alive.

I know, dramatic. But I’ve run out of credit cards to put the $1k/mo gap on.

And I HAVE to pay it

- no chemo meds means untreated stage 4 cancer & dying in ~ 6 months.

I’m $2k short of what I need at this point in the month.

If you can donate, thank you.

Did you know that a famous math reference – most physicists of a certain age have a copy – is the result of a New Deal project to employ scientists and mathematicians?

Mathematician Irene Stegun was born #OTD in 1919. A major contributor to the Works Progress Administration’s Mathematical Tables Project, she’s probably best known as co-author of the classic “A Handbook of Mathematical Functions” — usually referred to as “Abramowitz and Stegun.”

Dear friends of large ducks (geese),

These were on Wandsworth common, London. Walked there yesterday.

They seemed used to dogs, people and just happy in some reeds.

I don;t think they are water foul at all. More like ... well what is a kinder name? Anser Answer ... ?

Last one for #SuperbOwl Sunday. Owls (and other Arctic Predators, avian and mammal) use rises and hummocks to scan for prey, using the same spots year after year. Their waste and remains of prey fertilize the spot and the plants grow taller there than the surrounding tundra. Here a juvenile Snowy peers at me from such a spot. #Nunavut #Arctic #WildlifePhotography #Birding

Dear Friends of Anser Anser,

These are greylag geese on Wandsworth common pond I snapped this morning. They are the wild ancestors of domestic geese.

"Homosexual pairs are common (14 to 20% of the pairs may be ganders, depending on flock), and share the characteristics of heterosexual pairs with the exceptions that the bonds appear to be closer, based on the intensity of their displays."

Picture this: A world where no one is one paycheck away from homelessness. Where financial stress doesn't break families apart. That's the promise of Universal Basic Income. It's not just about economics; it's about compassion, stability, and the type of society we aspire to be.

No one should ever be forced to abort a wanted pregnancy. No one should ever be forced to surrender a wanted baby.
No one should ever be forced to endure an unwanted pregnancy. No one should ever be forced to bear an unwanted baby.
It really is that simple.
