With Trump reportedly planning to end the IRS Direct File program, there's no better time to remember how TurboTax owner Intuit spent two decades fighting to prevent Americans from filing their taxes online for free.

Certain models of Lenovo laptops now ship with Fedora and Ubuntu Linux. This is done to keep costs low and cater to developers or IT professionals who heavily rely on Linux. Another reason could be the increased unpopularity of Windows 11 in recent times due unwanted features like "AI" or "Recall", but that is just my own wild guess ;) LOL. Would you buy it?

#StateTerror
A brief guide for Americans
by #TimothySnyder
Yesterday the president defied a #SCOTUS ruling to return a man who was mistakenly sent to a gulag in another country, celebrated the suffering of this innocent person, & spoke of sending Americans to foreign #ConcentrationCamps.
This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, & it has to be identified as such to be stopped.

โIf you donโt see all of this as one of the darkest days in American history, in which the President is openly embracing disappearing people without due process in the name of โliberty,โ you are a part of the problem. Fascism has risen in America, and it is being aided by a foreign dictator whom Trump admires.โ

Generates a.o. documentation for your #Android devices, you can find some examples at izzy.codeberg.page/@master/adeโฆ
@MichaelZ You do understand correctly. Unfortunately, the `adb backup` command was pretty much castrated from around Android 10 onward, and no replacement provided. So reliable backups cannot be done with that anymore.
If your device is rooted, Adebar provides replacements for backup/restore, too โ otherwise, you can still use it for device documentation. Sorry, not much that can be done about that (apart from using a companion app, which I cannot provide).
