It is that time of the year (I see some people boosting my posts from last year), so let's do another #FreeSoftwareAdvent to appreciate all the great #FreeSoftware out there. I have definitely explored and made use of a bunch of software for the first time this year, so let's shout some out.

For today, it's #LabPlot @LabPlot by the #KDE @kde team.

Amazing, versatile graphing and data alanyisis tool that I actively use in my classrooms. Check it out!

New in PN: Chris Wray folds like cheap suit. Don’t be Chris Wray.

"Trump threatens, and often, people like Wray obey in advance. This is especially frustrating because Trump is not invincible. When people who purport to care about democracy or institutions choose to fight, they can in fact win." publicnotice.co/p/chris-wray-r

My apologies to mastodon.social for saying that it's about time that healthcare companies stop holding this country hostage. I apologize for being glad that someone finally found some consequence to those parasites. I will hold my tongue when I am continuously denied healthcare. Mario is better than Luigi.

This is true social evil. Hospitals are giving pain meds to patients during childbirth, then testing the patients afterwards, detecting the pain meds, and reporting them to child welfare authorities
