TIL That the Million Dollar 1988 McDonalds record winner was 13, had his mom claim it, she squandered a good chunk of it, had her BF steal what was left, lost his mom 10 years later,
Well that was a truly sad story.

A petition has been created by an Austrian EU rep. to replace Windows with GNU/Linux in all Europe
My main worry with Linux becoming more popular is that it will be attacked with more malware and viruses. I wouldn't mind though if Linux programmers could come up with better protection.

Putting the die in diet
This is what is now called a keto diet. Eggs, due to high protein, work as an appetite suppressant for several hours. Sugar causes cravings in a few.
There was never, among other things, a high population of obese people until the recommendation of the low fat diet (pyramid diet). Usually you would just see them at carnivals.
I've gone back to the 60's diet several years ago. Lost 95 lbs,, have increased energy levels, feel great.
10/10 recommend

Trump has 'made clear' he will turn the U.S. military loose on America if re-elected: NYT
Reply in thread
If he loses and tries to claim a stolen election, project 2025 promising a bloodbath will not go well for any of them. Especially since Trump continues to disrespect military personnel at every turn.
I know there are some maga nuts in the ranks, but last I heard most generals have spoken out against the Trumpet crumpet.

FDA declines to approve novel MDMA therapy to treat PTSD
Reply in thread
Exactly. Up until the early 80's it was used to treat patients in psychiatric wards. Then Reagan squashed it.
John Hopkins is one of the few research hospitals still allowed to experiment with it, along with psilocybin, and LSD. They have for many years declared positive results with patients who suffered from PTSD, depression, anxiety, etc.

I'm not sure the majority voted for Trump considering all the election interference and Elon Musk's fuckery.

Malcolm X had many supporters. He was held responsible when just a handful of them committed 'terrorist' acts.
Malcolm wasn't innocent in that respect, but far more so than Trump.

I've turned a few older neighbors on to Linux when they complained that window updates caused their PC's to run too slow.
I'd tell them 'before you go out and buy a new computer, let me install Linux if you don't like it, you lose nothing. In the end, each one of them was happy their computer was running like new again.

I voted Democrat, but I've never put any elected official on a pedestal. When said official is in office, I expect them to do their job and not fck sh*t up.
Also I have never voted for genocide. I abhor politics that encourage the hate of others.

I learned basic on an old trash 80 from radio shack in the late 70's. I really miss mucking around with it.
