They're about to launch a fundraising campaign.
Having lived in the Puget Sound area for most of my life, I can tell you that Boeing did a competent job of tarnishing its own name in the years preceding the McDonnell-Douglas merger.
Asahi Linux, for example relies on Rust on Linux code that's not in mainline yet - they're something like 600 patches that they have but cannot submit because the base dependencies are not in.
On the face of it, that sounds like the end result of poor decision-making by the Asahi developers.
Did they hold the 1974 seminar, or not???
Oh aren't you clever. No Windows boots in seconds.
Recent versions of Windows can indeed get you to the login screen pretty quickly, much of the time. But, after that, the time it takes for you to go from the login screen to a functional, usable desktop can be several minutes. Perhaps not on a home computer, I don't know... but I've seen this happen quite a bit on our work machines on those unfortunate occasions I've needed to log into a Windows computer for whatever reason (which fortunately is not a daily occurrence).
Going forward, their charitable "donations" are all going to a company they themselves own.
How is this different than George Costanza's Christmas gifts of "Donations to the Human Fund"?
Money for People, indeed.
Murphy, Quinn, Debbie... so we gotta choose between Marco, Stormy, Sparks, or Hesh?
I'm looking forward to the bored captain launching his pirate radio station...
Yeah, I was trying to actually type in the kid's name, but the Slashdot submit process seemed to hang perpetually.
Sheesh, I tried making a "Bobby Drop Tables" reference here, but Slashdot wigged out!
Someone needs to work on their table sanitization...
Yeah, I've used them in the past. This time, I think I'll still use them - but then print them out and mail them in.
I might hand-write in a couple of the numbers, just to add to the burden.
Project 2025 is basically a billionaire wishlist - most of its elements will actively hurt anyone who's not super-rich, and Trump and his masters know they can't really hide that fact anymore. They also know they're almost certainly gonna get hammered - in the popular vote - in next year's midterms, so they need to stack the deck. Fortunately for them, there are enough ultra-rich Republicans running a few of the more populous states - who know Project 2025 benefits them as well.
The downside (from the GOP point of view) is that even in GOP-led states, the big cities tend to lean Democrat - and redistricting alone may not be enough. So they're working towards pre-staging the Border Patrol and National Guard in as many of those cities as they can, getting ready for active voter suppression.
The Zuckerberg's have three children?
I wonder who the father is?
You'd think a guy who can buy up hundreds of millions of dollars worth of Kauai could, ya know, get a permit from the city.
He's worried about the ethical issues.
As in - he's worried if he does one thing ethically, it might somehow metastasize into his other endeavors.
