Charlie Kirk Assassination Sparks Social Media Crackdown

no real court orders were involved, the article mentions a EDR wasn't invoked, no push back from discord over what sounds like some sort of dump or access to all images uploaded to the service

“I have nothing to hide”: Why Privacy Matters
I've always reduced the argument to something like

Priced out of traditional housing, more Americans are living in RVs
"here he worked as a professional diver doing maintenance at SeaWorld and paying $750 a month in rent. He was hoping to find comparable rent in Chattanooga, where he took a new job doing underwater maintenance for the cooling towers at nuclear power plants."
Everything about RV life aside, that sounds pretty badass, kind of lame that sort of work dosen't pay more

Linux phones are more important now than ever
It would be cool to see people move beyond the standard smartphone and into some sort of hotspot and linux based palmtop or umpc like setup
I had something like that in the early 2000s with a nokia n800 and it worked well enough I'm sure it would be even better now

Book light recommendations?
I've been using a 'Glocusent USB Rechargeable Book Light' that works pretty well for me, it manages to light both sides of larger books without much fiddling and doesn't get in the way as much of the bendy wire ones too
I'm not sure how it compares to the one you are using but I use mine for a few hours at night in bed and only have to recharge it every few weeks
if you need a really long runtime and can't recharge easily maybe just buying multiple is an option?
