Quick update on the Linux Change I was talking about a week ago, moving from Garuda to CachyOS.

It has stalled while I reconsider. My Garuda install has received a lot of little tweaks while I've been setting up the partition stuff and it's now set up in a way that feels so tailor-made for me that I'm actually starting to dread putting myself backwards in that sense. I think i need the stability of having somewhere that isn't in need ot work to get it where I need it. This is Self-Care: while so much of my life is in the air I need an environment that is concrete and familiar. When things are more stable elsewhere I'll revisit.

Note here: Krohnkite is
fantastic. When windows just arrange themselves to be useful...I get a real sense of glee. I don't think I can go back now. Tiling Windows Managers are my future.

I'm also considering re-jigging my partition set up to have my /Home directory on a partition by itself. A concept I've known about for yonks but have never applied. In theory this would make distro-hopping a lot less painful.

A quotation from Ella Wheeler Wilcox

It is easy enough to be prudent
   When nothing tempts you to stray,
When without or within no voice of sin
   Is luring your soul away;
But it’s only a negative virtue
   Until it is tried by fire,
And the life that is worth the honour on earth
   Is the one that resists desire.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919) American author, poet, temperance advocate, spiritualist
Poem (1892), “Worth While,” st. 2, An Erring Woman’s Love

A quotation from Chamfort

Education must be based on two things: ethics and prudence; ethics in order to develop your good qualities, prudence to protect you from other people’s bad ones. If you attach too great an importance to goodness, you produce credulous fools; if you’re too prudent, you produce self-serving, scheming rogues.
 
[L’Éducation doit porter sur deux bases, la morale et la prudence ; la morale, pour appuyer la vertu ; la prudence, pour vous défendre contre les vices d’autrui. En faisant pencher la balance du côté de la morale, vous ne faites que des dupes ou des martyrs; en la faisant pencher de l’autre côté, vous faites des calculateurs égoïstes.]

Nicolas Chamfort (1741-1794) French writer, epigrammist (b. Nicolas-Sébastien Roch)
Products of Perfected Civilization [Produits de la Civilisation Perfectionée], Part 1 “Maxims and Thoughts [Maximes et Pensées],” ch. 5, ¶ 321 (1795) [tr. Parmée (2003), ¶ 205]

A marcher carries the "Bennington 76" flag in the Independence Day parade in Hinsdale, Illinois, on July 4, 2017. The unusual flag's origins are not precisely known, although it is believed to be inspired by the Battle of Bennington in the American Revolutionary War. It has 13 white and red stripes and a blue canton, upon which are 13 stars formed in an arch over the number "76." Photo by Daniel M. Reck.

Murdoch family drama plays out in court with fate of Fox News at stake

If #Rupert #Murdoch, 93, prevails in his legal effort to change voting rights of the #family #trust
to ensure that his chosen successor and conservative-leaning eldest son, #Lachlan Murdoch, 53, runs the company after his death, little may change.

♦️The proceedings pit Murdoch, 93, and his chosen successor, Lachlan, against his three more liberal-leaning siblings, Prudence, Elizabeth and James,
over future control of Murdoch’s #Fox Corp and #News Corp through the family’s control of the global empire’s share structure via an irrevocable trust set up in 1999.

According to the Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal, Murdoch is arguing that
“shifting voting control of the trust to Lachlan should be allowed because it is in the best interest of all the beneficiaries, including his other children”.

⭐️But if the patriarch loses, the younger brother #James Murdoch, in concert with his sisters #Prudence and #Elizabeth, could force Fox News to move away from the conservative news alignments of their father and brother.

🧨That would be an earthquake in American politics.

➡️ No other media power in the US has the impact that Fox News has had in the last two decades.

It has become a driving force of American conservatism, feared for its power by both Republicans and Democrats.

And condemned by many for its conservative bias and numerous show hosts who have become darlings of the US right and powerful players on their own.

Figures such as Sean #Hannity are hugely powerful within the Maga world, while the former host Tucker #Carlson
– now exiled from the station where he rose to power
– has withered outside it and been largely unable to recreate the influence he had while broadcasting to Fox’s viewers.

Gaming out the different scenarios at stake in Reno is water cooler talk at Fox News’s midtown New York headquarters,
with TV hosts discussing a reposition of their own personal brands if liberal-leaning James wins
and opening back-channel communications with him if his father and rival brother prevail.

But despite their immense importance the legal arguments over the Murdoch Family Trust presented within the impenetrable walls of a 1960’s annex court extension in Reno last week are known only to the judge and court staff, Rupert Murdoch, his first and second set of children and an army of lawyers, including Trump’s attorney general William Barr.

“A family trust like the one at issue in this case … is essentially a private legal arrangement,”
the Washoe county probate commissioner Edmund J Gorman Jr, wrote in an 18-page recommendation before the parties convened.

❇️ James, Elisabeth and Prudence, want the trust to be maintained and oppose Murdoch’s proposed change giving Lachlan control because they would stand to lose voting power.

Yet while Lachlan’s politics are comfortably rightwing and match his father’s,
the opposing other siblings have a different world view.

James Murdoch even hosted Joe #Biden in his home for a fundraiser in 2022 and🔥 has endorsed #Kamala #Harris to beat Trump in 2024.

But it won’t be Fox politics under discussion so much in Reno.
Instead, much of that argument will be couched in an examination of US corporate governance conventions that allow for a family to control a business they do not majority own by a so-called #dual #class structure of shares
– in effect the family shares have more power than others.
