The US government seems to go through this every year, a need to just shutdown as it can't afford to pay the bills.
Problem is, the young people who want to be an influencer rather than take up careers where we are short on skills, hence skills shortages, or the fact that influencer x is right no matter what, also gets in the way of critical thinking and in some cases learning.
Children are now worried about how they look, hence they 'NEED' to wear make up, or certain clothing (which happen to be expensive brands) and this adds to peer pressure, many families can't afford to put food on the table, this just adds to the financial stress people are under.
Give me a person who can say please, thank you, open doors and offer to help anyday. It does not matter what you are wearing, as courtesy costs nothing and leaves the right impression on others.
The next generation need to wake up and understand what is going on and fight for their future and the future of ther peers, so the country has a decent chance of surviving in a global world that is based on science and common sense, rather than hatred which is where the US is heading, and heading fast.

Even though the HOPE (Hackers on Planet Earth) conference is usually slated for every other year, given the success of the 2024 conference, HOPE will take place again next year.
I just got an email saying HOPE_16 will occur August 15-17, 2025, at St. John's University in Queens, New York City.
I'm definitely going this time.
2024 remains clearly at the top of the list for the warmest January to November periods on record.

The 51-year-old motorsport executive, who was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the New Year Honours list, received the award for his distinguished services to motorsport.
How do you get appointing to something that no longer exists, the empire ceased to exist decades ago and moved on to be the commonwealth.

I have 0.95 with a copy of PCW magazine,
Today marks 31 years as a Linux user.
And for those who will probably ask, no, I've never owned a piece of hardware running Windows or MacOS and, yes, I've always been able to get work done running only Linux.
I don't think I would be quite the nerd/geek that I am now if I hadn't found Linux all those years ago.
Thank you to everyone that works/volunteers on Linux and Open Source projects allowing me to do what I absolutely love to do.
I did not ask for this either, i removed everything on my github when MS took over, now time to delete it i think,

mutual aid request ( please boost)
My partner has an aggressive form of cancer (Rhabdomyosarcoma to be exact), she is getting treatments that seem to help but it's very costly for us as she does not have health insurance.
I am currently unemployed and have no money at the moment to pay the deposit for her treatments, I am asking for anyone that can donate to please help us. We need money to get to and from her doctors visits, pay for the doctors visits and her costly prescription medications.

Does RFKs objection to vaccines also apply to animals and birds?
Welcome, great to see you here.
#Introduction Hi #fediverse ! We’re the European Southern Observatory, and we design, build and operate ground-based telescopes.
One of them is our Extremely Large Telescope, currently under construction in #Chile. It will have a 39 m mirror, and its rotating enclosure will weigh 6100 tonnes, or about 700 mastodons!
We’re looking forward to chatting with all of you about #astronomy
