My brother in christ, I’m not talking about the pretext the government used to attack Iraq. I’m talking about the fact that the two things had nothing to do with each other.

Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. The fact that the government used that as a pretext doesn’t magically link the two things.

I’m not skilled enough to be able to speak to that.

Maybe I’m in the minority, but all I need is a fuse plugin. I don’t need specific syncing like a OneDrive/Google Drive app.

we were attacking a country for the president’s personal vendetta

This had nothing to do with 9/11. Invading Iraq was much later. You’re conflating the two.

“Bush did 9/11” is crazy talk. “Bush invaded Iraq because he wanted to get back at Saddam Hussein and make money for Halliburton” is not.

It’s unclear that they need to handle a specific flavor when they could release a Flatpak. I think the community wouldn’t have any problem tweaking the dependencies for particular distros.

My understanding isn’t even that there is a law enforcement problem there, but Republicans are going to Republican. The healthcare spending is at least a good thing.

I read that the library now has an interpreter that speaks Haitian Creole and have provided resources for the immigrants to help them learn English. Libraries are always at the forefront of this stuff. They’re amazing.

No. Cops have convinced a majority of people that they need to be able to break the law in order to protect them.
