That red logo in the middle is Philips, not Philco. It was Philco that made the church form of radio popular. And that's a rather modern form of the Philips logo, too.
There is clearly a shift in the Trump Administration’s energy policy from renewable energy to foster and sustain more fossil fuel energy. This shift is being
@Tom Grzybow It's an antique marketing practice called the "loss leader". You sell at a loss initially just to get 'em in the door. Once they're in the door, the prices go up.
Okay, that is good. I would still just have to test and see what looked good on both dark and light and I will probably just stop using color for a while due to that. It is just more fuss than it is worth really. I had not even really considered that others would be using a light theme 😉.
The option is not in the posting frame. You use BBcode. I have Markdown & Mathjax addons enabled too but you have to enable that in your settings to use it.

Fedora 42 released and I went ahead and updated my laptop. I usually wait for a few months for them to work out the early release cycle bugs. 😉 Though I had been hearing good reviews from early adopters so I went ahead and took the plunge. I have been primarily using Fedora since F19. Canonical was pissing in my Wheaties again and I finally said to hell with them. I had tried Fedora before though I had drifted away looking for greener pastures. There are not a whole lot of General Purpose (GP) GNU/Linux distros that I have not tried at some point in time. Though my main 4 still remain:
Fedora
Arch
LFS (Linux From Scratch)
Alpine Linux
Of course I use Rocky Linux for my servers if possible though that is not a daily driver. I have

Fedora 42

Fedora 42 released and I went ahead and updated my laptop.

Of course I use Rocky Linux for my servers if possible though that is not a daily driver. I have been using GNU/Linux since 1993 when I heard about it on the UseNet and decided to download it, compile it and give it a whirl. It was not until 1997 or 1998 when Boot Magazine (now Wired) had Debian on a CD that I got to try out X Server. You see X Server is huge and on dial up that would be a several day adventure downloading so I had just put together a console. Not to say I had no graphics, It just wasn't on X. I have had to keep up with MS/DOS and then Windows because of work and family and friends though I have not had a MS Operating System on a machine of mine, except for testing, since 1993.
Why Fedora? Why Gnome? Well, the short and long of that is that it works for me. You see there is no best distro or DE (Desktop Environment). There is only the distro and DE that is best for you. So if someone is trying to shove their favorite distro down your throat, smile and check out some distros for yourself. Try the different DEs. We are fortunate enough to have many of them to choose from. Some OSes are stuck with, well, no choice.
Enid schools have already had remodeling work done 7 ways from Sunday just to avoid #BRAC and NOBODY has asked Trump ANYTHING about Base Realignment And Closing. It's still in effect, people. Do y'all seriously want to put base closings in Trump's hands with no questions asked???
State senators advanced a measure out that would allow public schools located on military bases to receive millions of dollars in special state aid to make needed renovations.
Well well well--I just now looked up the cast of Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines to discover that both Benny Hill and Gary Graham were in it. They certainly didn't stand out at the time when I saw it.
An H.G. Welles character invented something when the story was made into a movie: Cavorite. What to use to fly to the moon with. #monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon
Sorry, but nearly all of us recognize water when we see it, and nearly all of us recognize a bird when we see one, so nearly all of us except this guy knows what water is or what birds are.
The time for action is now – this is the mantra being taken up by Generation Z across the world. Already this year, thousands of high school students across the world have skipped school to protest their governments’ inaction on climate change.
And it will be up to Gaians to promote a right relationship with the living Earth, based on respect, deference, and atoning for decades of exploitation—just not as individuals, but as economic, political, and cultural systems, even as the levels of c…

I am so used to buying Certificates from a CA that I am used to them lasting a year. Just got an email from EncryptIt Telling me that my Certificate was about to expire, and warning that they will no longer be sending warning messages anymore. I have a cron job set to renew the cert though it was set to renew once a year. 😀 My bad. I renewed the cert and updated the cron job so it will automatically update for now on. Disaster averted! 😀
