Awful news. I have so many amazing memories of The Frames and his solo gigs, most recently in 2024 but going back probably 25 years; just incredible live. So sad. Glen Hansard, singer, frontman of The Frames and Oscar winner, has died aged 56 https://jrnl.ie/7116253

Considering dipping my toes into #Linux, most likely using my MacBook Air M4. A search told me that Fedora is recommended distro for Mac hardware. Is this true, or should I look at Mint or another one? Is any distro better for screen reader users? Any good guides out there for newbies? #Tech

Not that long ago, this would have had serious consequences for a number of people at Fifa. Today? Water off a duck's back. The problem is not just corruption, but how it is now felt that corruption is the default modus operandi of corporations and governments. In other words, "normal".
It is not.
