Opinions my own… Boy, do I have some. Some are actually valid.

Oh, and feel free to ignore me and move along. It’ll trouble me none.

    Personally, I prefer installation via the package manager… Saves some steps and I’ve not had a problem using this procedure since the 90’s…

    AppImage is fine and all but there are some extra steps required to have that “app” appear in the OS menu and such…

    And, as an old fuck, I’m not fond of referring to the software installed on my computer as “app”. It’s “software” or “a program”.

    And, yes. Phone is also a computer and “app” is the appropriate word usage on that platform…

    I know. Semantics. But it’s what I’m used to.

    “The order properly requires the Government to ‘facilitate’ Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador and to ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador,” the court said in an unsigned order with no noted dissents.

    So, still not a “regular court order” in the normal sense we think of it…

    SCROTUS is still wary of Mafia Don Mangolini…

    Scared that he might just actually willingly defy a “regular court order” setting up a true and very real “constitutional crisis” in the worst possible definition of that phrase…

    Cowardly traitors all. On all sides. All 3 branches of so-called government.

    Democracy in the US is under siege and barely hanging on…

    The two-page memo, which was obtained by the Associated Press, does not allege any criminal conduct by Khalil, a legal permanent US resident and graduate student who served as spokesperson for campus activists last year during large demonstrations against Israel’s treatment of Palestinians and the war in Gaza. Rather, Rubio wrote Khalil could be expelled for his beliefs. He said that while Khalil’s activities were “otherwise lawful”, letting him remain in the country would undermine “US policy to combat antisemitism around the world and in the United States, in addition to efforts to protect Jewish students from harassment and violence in the United States”.

    The Thought Police have officially arrived and been christened in their duties… 🙄 🤡 🖕 🖕
