A little in love with my new entirely silent setup. The Streacom DB4 case with dual heat pipes keeps the Ryzen 5700g GPU chugging along at ~55°C during normal usage and ~75°C is the max I’ve seen it under full load (while compiling stuff with all cores firing at ~100%).

Okay, yeah, this seems to explain a lot of the FSF's toxicity and failure to grow/evolve.

Thread: This tweet got me to thinking: is there a way to show just how broken the FSF is as an organization?

Is there a way to show how their board isn't really a functioning board, but rather an enabling body for RMS?

Turns out, there is! And I will show you in *four* tweets. https://twitter.com/therealfitz/status/1381656583554404353

Call or write your Senators again today and demand they pass #S1, the For the People Act. It's the bill that will protect everyone's access to voting nationwide.

If you can afford to contribute, consider Stacey Abrams' Fair Fight. (https://fairfight.com/) I just made another donation "in honor" of the voter suppression bill that Kemp just passed.

There are also a number of other groups working on voting rights need out help in donations or volunteer work.

* Brennan Center for Justice (https://www.brennancenter.org/)
* NAACP (https://naacp.org/)
* League of Women Voters (https://www.lwv.org/) <-- LWV sponsors grassroots voter registration drives and fights for fair, nonpartisan redistricting- many chapters nationwide of Fair Districts.)

Republicans will keep trying to suppress the vote. We'll keep stopping them.

Georgia governor signs into law sweeping voting bill that curtails the use of drop boxes and imposes new ID requirements for mail voting:
