https://flathub.org/ is a great way to manage linux apps/programmes. Very easy and several other benefits

if it's for construction use, Bonsai is an incredibly powerful BIM solution that can also output 2D. Bonsai is probably the most complete IFC compliant (and native) system available.

In 1998 i was part of a project team that included the Met Police's IT R&D team. Those guys had a novel facial recognition system then, that was trialled in Clarendon Road in Watford. The results were not good, but the reason for canning it was that the civil liberties groups were going nuts and threatening mayhem. I cannot believe that 26 years later they haven't already implemented it and been using it for some time.

Thinking that undocumented (inherently illegals) will be spared to continue providing cheap labour, ignores the impending AI revolution impact. Millions of jobs will be lost. The menial jobs currently being done by undocumented labour, will soon be done by legal citizens who have lost their jobs to AI. The Ministry of DOGE coin apparatus will soon be in place to implement this at national scale. The leopards are going to eat the faces of 99% of us.

National Intelligence! Oxymoron shenanigans, I've called it.

It is, they have hooves.

some years back I was the 'Head' of systems stuff at a national telco that provided the national telco infra. Part of my job was to manage the national systems upgrades. I had the stop/go decision to deploy, and indeed pushed the 'enter' button to do it. I was a complete PowerPoint Manager and had no clue what I was doing, it was total Accidental Empires, and I should not have been there. Luckily I got away with it for a few years. It was horrifically stressful and not the way to mitigate national risk. I feel for the CrowdStrike engineers. I wonder if the latest embargo on Russian oil sales is in anyway connected?

Come and see the kernel inherent in my system.

Swearing. I live in South East Asia, where swearing is taboo. Visiting my homeland of the UK, it takes a few days to get back my expletive laden fluency. The first few days are painful, as everyone thinks I'm being pretentiously posh. Upon returning to Asia, typically i offend a few people until my language is restrained. Sadly, Southeast Asians don't appreciate how expressive, cathartic and fun swearing is, it's a fucking shame.

When i got mine, my nephews and nieces concatenated uncle and dr, even years later they refer to me as druncle

For me, Handel: Mozart is reputed to have said of him, "Handel understands affect better than any of us. When he chooses, he strikes like a thunder bolt."[159] To Beethoven he was "the master of us all... the greatest composer that ever lived. I would uncover my head and kneel before his tomb."[159]

I go there quite a lot, and this is not my experience at all, i have awesome food there. A wise old sage told me many years ago to only eat vegetarian there, as bad meat can make you very ill, while bad veggies just give you the craps. I continue to eat both, and only get bad guts as often as i do when pigging out on kebabs in London or the States.

Good luck for Friday! Hopefully you can post an update next week, so we know you're with us. This may interest you; my wife used to be an anaesthetist, and during long, boring procedures would give the patient a facial - blackhead removal etc. It's considered unethical, but she delighted in them waking up looking great.

Thank you! May yours be peaceful, prosperous and as long as you fancy

Same for me. I don't sweat the small stuff anymore, and fairly much everything is small stuff now.

So unless they can shoot with impunity, they won't fulfill their oath to serve and protect the public. Feels like we're being held hostage.
