The image is a four-panel comic strip with a pink background. In the first panel, a character with red wings and horns, dressed in a black outfit, is speaking to another character with glasses and brown hair, wearing a green shirt. The red-winged character says, "I just had a Zoom meeting with my boss and he said empathy is a sin now." The second panel shows the character with glasses responding with, "...What?" The third panel features the red-winged character asking, "So I guess I'm supposed to tempt you to... care about others?" The fourth panel shows the character with glasses saying, "I'm confused." The red-winged character replies, "Me too." The comic strip is credited to [@]pizzacakecomic and includes a Patreon link at the bottom.

I understand why they picked, Fedora, but I also see the irony.
The problem with SUSE / openSUSE is for the past few years, they keep flip-flopping. I mean to say, there is no clear road map.
openSUSE, for example, has said they would discontinue Leap, then said they were going to keep it, then discontinue it, then keep it, then make it immutable, then changed their mind, then said they'd discontinue it, and now it is in development.
The more amusing things was when they said they were going to change their logo. openSUSE held a contest, picked a winner, gave out prizes, promoted their new logo, and then changed their mind.
The more concerning thing is openSUSE is doing the same thing with Yast. At one point, they were going to hand it (Yast) over to a 3rd party developer, who was working on making it a terminal only project. And they've expressed a desire to kill off KDE in openSUSE a few times now, claiming lack of individuals showing interest to help support it (even when people came forward to help support it).
Here is the big kicker (the gotcha).

Here is the big kicker (the gotcha). They have a history of rewriting their history. So whatever they claim today, promote today, not only may vanish, but they'll deny it later. It has been amusing and upsetting to watch, because both SUSE Enterprise and openSUSE used to be great developments that I truly liked.
Over the past few days, I "channeled" my inner nerd into building an automated radiation detection system using open-source tools.
The device combines an ESP32 running #ESPHome for sensor data collection, my #HomeAssistant for centralized smart home integration, and #NodeRED for automating hourly Fediverse updates via a bot account

Connectivity: ESP32 transmits via Wi-Fi to Home Assistant
Case: #3dPrinting the case (photo) - base is black and the lid is blue and shows the logo of "Fallout" (pc game/ TV series)
Automation: Node-RED flow formats data into ActivityPub messages
Decentralized Sharing: Posts include μSv/h readings
While this started as a hardware tinkering project, recent global events — nuclear rhetoric in conflict zones, aging power plants, and insufficient transparency in environmental monitoring — made me realize decentralized citizen science could play a crucial role.
Open-source tools eliminate single points of failure, and Fediverse integration ensures censorship-resistant data sharing.
Feel free to follow my bot account I mentioned above, if you are interested.
If I can find some time I will write a blogpost about the build process and link it in the bio / or just toot about it.
Trump voter Bradley Bartell voted for mass deportations, never thinking they’d come for his wife. But alas, his wife, Camila Muñoz, overstayed her visa, and now she’s in an ICE detention facility.
Gee, what did they expect, to be excempt? "But we voted for you!" "Yeah, thanks a lot!", he's saying... When are these gullible people gonna learn that he doesn't care about anything or anybody but himself.
> Possibly defying a court order. Urging his Justice Department to prosecute nemeses. Repeatedly calling the media 'illegal.' Declaring a predecessor's pardon null and void. U.S. President Donald Trump has done these things in the past few days.
I suspect all this chaos is exactly why Constitutional scholars have said the theory of a Unitary Executive is not what the Framers intended. It's a shame so many people can only learn by experience.
Taking the adults out of the FTC allows for more fraudulent trading, non-compliance by mega corporations with their financial reporting, introduction of crypto trading (eg in retirement accounts), and all kinds of deregulation. Remember the subprime mortgage crash? The next one will be monumental. Especially since other nations will shun the US dollar because there is now no regulation. Buckle up! I’m curious if the market will go up because they’ll see ways to short term profit from fraud or will go down because they know things are going to crash eventually. I’m guessing down, because the wise will be withdrawing funds and traders don’t like change of any kind.

“People are scared to go out because they go out with their kids, and they don’t want to go to a place where (people are) going to show up with guns to check whether they’re a U.S. citizen or not. That was very upsetting for a lot of people.” texasobserver.org/ice-raids-ab…
Trump administration officials said the company donated the internet service, saying the gift had been vetted by the lawyer overseeing ethics issues in the White House Counsel’s Office.

When we introduced Sections (now the default option), we codenamed it Project Grace after the great Admiral Grace Hopper - the creator of COBOL & author of the first computer manual. 🤩
The world has lost 5% to 10% of all insect species in the last 150 years.
The collapse of insect populations across much of the world is one of the most alarming aspects of the unfolding biodiversity crisis.
This is our own life-support system. We must defend it against corporate greed and resist industrial expansion that’s fuelling species loss, climate breakdown and deepening inequalities.
> Whether it’s cryptocurrency scammers mining with FOSS compute resources or Google engineers too lazy to design their software properly or Silicon Valley ripping off all the data they can get their hands on at everyone else’s expense… I am sick and tired of having all of these costs externalized directly into my fucking face. Do something productive for society or get the hell away from my servers.
I know I post a lot of photos of clouds but honestly, I think we should all spend more time looking to the skies. They speak a rare and valuable truth to us all. *nods wisely*

The image is a meme divided into two sections, each with a contrasting theme. On the left, the text "Reject modernity" is displayed above a large red "N" on a black background, which is the logo of Netflix. This represents modernity. On the right, the text "Embrace tradition" is above an image of a pirate ship with black sails featuring skull and crossbones, symbolizing tradition. The ship is detailed with multiple masts and flags, and the sails are fully unfurled, suggesting movement. The meme contrasts modern streaming services with traditional pirate imagery, suggesting a preference for the latter.
