Elon Musk allegedly took large amounts of drugs including ketamine while advising Trump – report

"taking ketamine so frequently it caused bladder problems and traveling with a daily supply of approximately 20 pills"

The golden rule for support forums should be, if you have nothing to actually add to help someone achieve their goal, then you should shut the fuck up.

If all you're going to do is criticize someone's efforts, without offering a working solution, you should shut the fuck up.

If you add no value to the conversation, you most certainly should, shut the fuck up.

I have similar experiences when it comes to problems I can't solve on my own. End user support on Linux is an issue.

It must not necessarily be free support. There can be a premium model, for sure.

But communities never where very helpful with the few (but always deal breaking) issues I had.

Currently I'm on Fedora because of its good general documentation and I hope the community can help with a sound issue I have.

I am likely going to be banned from the NixOs Community Forum, as I posted this as my reply to someone. - I do not even care.

Why?

If you look at my post history, I solved my own problems. All I ever got was people criticizing and never actually providing solutions. Which is what most people looking of help want - A solution (or at best a working tip, beyond a vague cryptic statement).

@AlexanderVI you are 100% correct. I grew up in California and have lived all over the country. There are large numbers of heavily armed people *everywhere* in America (it's just that red states are more likely to have open carry so you *see them* more). And conservatives in blue states are the *worst* — resentful, protected from their bad decisions by blue state policies but extra aggrieved because they don't have the majority cultural power to inflict their bigotry on everyone.

@milkman76 I'm not, but my experience of ten years in LA being around a wide variety of people from different backgrounds was that those on the right were generally more comfortable with gun ownership, and that there are many places in the state that are deeply red despite the overall impression of some outside that California is all groovy and whatever.

I am sure, however, as you point out, that it's not EXCLUSIVELY right wingers who are armed.

Meanwhile, in #LosAngeles. #ICE under attack b/c this👇

Via "feminist news", facebook.
"ICE agents and #LAPD turned the beautiful city of LA into a war zone Friday evening. Heavily armed masked ICE goons ransacked a vibrant immigrant community, but they certainly weren't expecting the neighborhood to stand their ground. Hundreds of community members workers and activists overwhelmed ICE agents and had them corralled around the federal building."

The #Madleen crew has almost arrived! For those who have felt powerless watching the #genocide, or simply do not wish to see evil triumph by doing nothing, now is the chance to support them:

- Email the different government authorities to ask them to protect their citizen(s)
palestine.risefor.org/action-g…

- or send a letter to the Israeli authorities (almost 1 million sent),
link on the page freedomflotilla.org

-or email their foreign ministries

What is the Least Bad Chromium-based browser? Been getting really fucking fed up with how slow Firefox has been lately

I’m not particularly picky about it needing to be 100% FOSS or de-Googled or anything. I just want to be able to sync my bookmarks and extensions across several computers, both Windows and macOS

To modern eyes, it sounds bizarre—but placing a live frog in a milk bucket was once a clever survival tactic. In rural Russia and Finland, people noticed that milk stayed fresh longer when a frog was swimming in it. This tradition, passed down for generations, was based on keen observation rather than scientific understanding.

Years later, researchers discovered the truth: brown frogs secrete powerful antimicrobial peptides through their skin—natural compounds that fight off bacteria. What seemed like folklore turned out to be early biochemistry in action. A frog in your milk wasn’t just a rural myth—it was an unwitting act of preservation.

A controversial Greens bill allowing the South Australian government to seize private land without consent or compensation has passed the upper house.

Critics say the bill is a "fundamental breach of property rights" and described it as "Communism".

PREP ACT - Time for Supreme Court to weigh vaccine case?

americanthinker.com/blog/2025/…

Trust in federal agencies such as the NIH, CDC, and FDA will not be restored without accountability. If the U.S. Supreme Court declines to address the egregious miscarriages of justice accomplished under the PREP Act, all American children are at continuous risk, and public schools will attract suspicion. Similarly, public confidence in the ...

in reply to HunDriverWidow

nation’s highest court will be tarnished along with the federal agencies and Congress it is entrusted to hold to the highest law of the land.

My comments are:

Since the early 1980's, the public schools, Coast to Coast, have been involved in taking or directing minor children to Planned Parenthood for advice and/or abortions. There is the chance that any of these minors could die or end up sterile!! Who holds the liability for this murder and maiming?
