Although I always advocate for open-source software, I understand the need for commercial proprietary tools, especially in the creative space. The Linux community can now use Affinity Studio as an AppImage! Just ensure you’ve installed the required dependencies.

For Debian/Ubuntu variants:
`sudo apt install libfuse2t64 zenity`

I recommend downloading Affinity-x86_64-For-older-cpus-only for broader hardware compatibility.

Big thanks to Ryzendew (Mattscreative) for making this possible! #Linux

A boy loses consciousness and dies on a flight, despite efforts of staff and fellow passengers to revive him. Should the airline face liability under the Montreal Convention? It depends on what counts as an “accident.”

Dear Friends and Software Freedom Lovers,

It is with great pleasure that we announce the release of #Devuan Excalibur 6 as our newest stable release.

Many thanks to our team of volunteers for their invaluable community work.

Live long & prosper🖖!

The @devuan Linux distribution has released its version 6, "Excalibur" version!

Devuan is essentially @debian but mainly with the horrible SystemD mistake reverted, and is the distribution I would primarily recommend to people who are capable of and don't mind a bit of extra manual fiddling around primarily when installing third party softwares as those often nowadays only include instructions and templates for SystemD (which is part of the extremely many issues with SystemD, assimilating, wrecking, extinguishing, making itself a dependency for, complicating and making debugging very much more difficult of everything else).
Devuan 6, "Excalibur", is based on the current version of Debian which is 13, "Trixie".

… biography. The lawyer also gave CLE presentations, and the CLE organization used the same false credentials in its marketing materials. The lawyer at some point asked the CLE organization to correct some materials, but he was not consistent in these requests and did not follow up on all of them. Admonition for violation of Rules 7.1 (false advertising) & 8.4(c) (deceptive conduct) for failing to correct misrepresentations on the firm websites and CLE material.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: If someone else inflates my academic credentials, do I have a duty to correct them?

A NJ lawyer’s firm created a website in 2010. His website biography, which he did not personally prepare, falsely represented that he graduated “cum laude” from college and that he finished an LLM program he didn’t actually finish. He never corrected the error. He joined a new firm in 2015, and the new firm also used the false … (cont)

Debates over artificial intelligence consciousness distract from the real issue: the growing perception that AI is conscious — and the urgent need to resist designing systems that encourage this illusion. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/11/03/world/the-conscious-ai-is-coming/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #artificialintelligence #ai

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.
