Old Intel crapbook air from 2013 or 2015. The battery life wasn’t ever great, but it significantly diminished when i changed them to linux. I expected an increase…

very bad, sadly

installed Linux Mint on various apple macbooks i got second hand and the battery life is abysmal.

it’s a good sci-fi, 4X, turn-based video game. The lore is about an extinct powerful godlike civilization called the endless. Many artifacts / places / technologies / songs are called “… …of the endless”. So the title “Dream of the Endless” made me think of it

we are going through a very authoritarian drift right now. Flashballs used to be exclusively used against terrorists, hostage situations : 19 000 were fired during the yellow jjackets crisis and they’re now basic police equipment. Drone usage is increasing, the government bought 90 armored personnel carriers with multiple grenade launchers exclusively for riot control… and now the phone spying.
