Hope Floridians don't mind not having access to social media

The GAO doesn't actually have any authority. What's going to happen here is that they'll write a publicly available report detailing all of the horrible things that DOGE is doing and it'll have a "recommendations" section at the end. And that's it. From there it's up to our useless Congress to act on the information, or otherwise lawsuits from anyone with standing. But we all know how that goes.

This factory was supposed to be producing Tesla Solar Roof tiles which is now vaporware. And the only reason Tesla owns the solar business at all is because he bailed out his cousin or something by buying the business from him.

Wrong. If she wants to help, she should start talking up how great Trump and Musk's policies are.

Dude, fuck you. You don't know me. I've been on the front line dealing with DOGE's bullshit since day 1. I've been to 4 protests in as many weeks. I've made numerous phone calls to my representatives.

Fuck Elon and fuck you too

Speaking as a Federal employee myself, this is now the 4th president I'm serving under. Some of my colleagues have seen more come and go. We were here before Elon and we will be here after.

Yeah, I figured it out after I posted. I'll give this a try for a while

 

Can someone point me to a helpful beginners resource explaining some Linux basics? Like what is the difference between "distro", which is what, like Ubuntu, fedora, Debian (? Or is that a category of distro?) And desktop environment which is what, KDE, Lubuntu, gnome? Like I don't even know I have these categories right let alone understand why I'd pick one over another and what practical effects it will have- which apps will I/won't I be able to install, etc...

I'm not expecting anyone to answer these questions for me, but if you could point me to something already written, I'd appreciate it.
