From Linux projects to Wikipedia and the Internet Archive, I am happy to support those doing excellent work for the greater good.

Most of my annual business expenses come up in December and January. I have to pay the for-profit companies, but I also choose donate to all the non-profits and open source projects that help make my life and work easier.

Cinnamon is underrated due to its ties with vanilla Mint. KDE does everything anyone could ever want. Budgie needs more love. XFCE has its place but is clunky. Gnome is awful. Why would anyone interested in the customizability of Linux go with such an opinionated / rigid DE?

Cinnamon > KDE >> Budgie > XFCE >>> Gnome

Hey @CityofAsheville and @buncombeGov, why are you working with companies bringing about such a dystopian reality. cc: @asheville

Big Brother is watching and it is scary. Camera systems billed as being for "public safety" are vulnerable and can be used for privacy invasion and nefarious purposes. The "benefits" are not worth the cost. youtube.com/watch?v=vU1-ui…

Planning a bachelor party in #Asheville or WNC in general? Please remember to support local businesses.

Halloween is always such a great learning experience for my kids. They get to learn so much about economics: Taxes: Gotta pay me a percentage of the candy haul Currency Exchange: 1 airhead = 2 nerds boxes = 10 bubble gums

What is everyone wearing for the #Rapture? Is this a formal affair or can I make do with smart casual?

@WLOS_13 At first glance I saw "Rapist" and "Children" and thought for sure it was about Trump and Epstein.

@tombogert Is there even going to be a 2026 Leagues Cup due to World Cup scheduling? Have a two year deferred punishment doesn't have a lot of bite -- and Suarez in particular knows about bite.

Any Leagues Cup-related suspension may not matter to Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets. It remains an open question if either returns to play in 2026. MLS very likely won't act until after Leagues Cup Organizing Committee completes their review & hands out their punishment.
