It appears I am going to be made a Senior Member of the IEEE (the highest level one can achieve)... Cool!
About a year ago I started using #RMarkdown and #Xaringan to prepare presentation and I love it. Efficient, elegant, saves disk space and allows you you to easily prepare slides with a very consistent layout and style.
For an example see:

You can use this repo https://github.com/JekelyLab/jekelylab.github.io to get started.

Anyone in my network have a recommendation on where I can buy used #thinkpads for the purpose of putting #Linux on for my kids? Not ebay and craigslist. Wondering anywhere else?
Receptive to other low cost #Linux laptop options too.
Max budget $300.

@hasmis It's also a problem of the consumer being far removed from the farm, literally, and having never visited one . One of my granddaughter's won't eat any meat that looks like it's part of an animal <ie> chicken legs, wings, leg of lamb etc. She's never visited a farm or seen an abattoir. She is like most consumers, who don't know all the work farmers do to feed us!
People near to the earth know that off colour vegetables/fruit doesn't mean it's not good. Urbanites, not so much.
Cheers!
I'm currently working on the osboot/libreboot merger that I alluded to in the last Libreboot release. I'm about 40% done as I write this, and I started today!
Osboot is becoming part of Libreboot. The projects are merging and will operate as one, under current osboot policy.
Current osboot policy shall be known unofficially as:
Pragmatic System Distribution Guidelines
or just PSDG for short
new libreboot release soon
Good read if you're a fellow progressive. Don't follow the crowd.

@hasmis
That's a rather strange statement. The waste is because the consumer is not educated enough to know that there is nothing wrong with a little off colour cauliflower and the retailer's wanting a uniform size. Therefore in this example, large and off-white cauliflower is plowed under. That's what we're talking about in this article.
@mc
O shit you meant the language. D'oh! Went right over my head. 👍
Don't ever forget that the #EuropeanUnion supported the illegal 2019 Coup in #Bolivia - Democracy only matters when it suits us...
RT @MarkWeisbrot: This is the result of a 2019 military coup backed by the US gov't and Bolivian white supremacists, that overthrew the democratically elected government of Evo Morales. With decisive help from Luis Almagro, still Secretary General of the OAS.
