I’ve just now found out about this perfect little gem of information:

Do you remember Julie Briskman? She was the cyclist who gave the #Trump motorcade the finger. #Trump demanded she was fired, and she was.
@jdpoc So angry was she, she decided to run for office and defeated the local Republican candidate on her local Virginia State Council. She was sworn in today. And there is a beautiful little punchline…
@jdpoc ... she is now on the Local Board of Supervisors that overseas legislation for leisure facilities in her county.

A county which includes #Trump’s National Golf Club.

it’s just another little thing that’s made my day.

Tech : With many server stacks and LamP set-ups still being run on Ubuntu Server 16.04, you'll be aware that Support has moved from LTS to ESM.

Should you migrate ? Most would say yes, BUT : Assess the risks and make a smart business decision.

ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-16…
There are Migration-Hawks in the Industry who would evangelise over 'Upgrade Being The Path To Heaven'

Ain't neccessarily so.

Evaluate how migration impacts your existing workloads & APIs as your configs might depend on versions of the apps/libs that shipped with 16.04.
In short : In the personal desktop world, the 'latest' is always nice to have.

In business, 'If It Ain't Broke Don't Fix It' should be plastered on every IT Support Office Wall.

My advice : Leave it alone. Migrate in 2 years time. Your clients will love you for it.

#Parler may be saved by a cash injection (and server services) from Domain registrar #Epik, ref CEO Rob Monster (that's really his name)

Epik is described as "a safe haven for the extreme right",.
Epik saved #Gab (the Original Nazi Twitter) and #DailyStormer (The Nazi Web Site of choice).
Epik has a history of not responding to reports of illegal activity on the websites they register, including criminal activity, selling of drugs and weapons, trading of nazi memorabilia, and others.

It's simply 'neither their problem nor their concern".

Biden's Payback Time For The Right Wing Extremist

[Caveat : This is humour, people.]

When Biden takes office, his first few days should be taken up with some key policies :
1. Free 200 square foot Planned Parenthood Clinics on every street with free bottomless coffee ;

2. Repaint Air Force One in rainbow stripes, fly it over Alabama airdropping abortion pills ;
3. Tax the Televangelist 'Churches' until their leaders have to sell both their private jets ;

4. Buy up McDonalds and make them exclusively serve food to the low-waged and homeless, for free ;

Short Thread :

If you use 'Free Speech' as a cover for Incitement of Hated and Violence, you're not concerned at all about 'Free Speech'.

Just *your* Speech. Image
If you claim 'Freedom of Expression' yet incited death threats to Colin Kaepernick who simply knelt down, you're not concerned at all about 'Freedom of expression'

Just *your* Freedom of Expression. Image
If you demand reinstatement of a Twitter account after demanding #BLM accounts were banned, you're not concerned about Free Speech.

Just that ensuring your voice is louder. Image
