Because swing voters still exist in the UK.

Since you're on EndeavourOS, I suggest using btrfs-assistant instead of timeshift, since it was created by one of the devs and offers more functionality with snapper. Just create a new profile for your root partition and then configure how often you want it to take snapshots.

You can also install snap-pac so that you get OpenSUSE-like automatic snapshots everytime pacman executes a install/remove/update command.

Out of interest, hsve you heard/read much about VanillaOS and their AB partition system, and if so what do you make of that compared to Fedora Atomic?

Legitimately crazy take, no doubt.

What was the last phrase, out of interest?

Online Accounts only supports Outlook mail at the moment, so it's not a Onedriver replacement yet.

Thanks, I hate it.

Divestment from Israel can take many forms, depending on the institution. Some colleges may be directly involved with Israeli companies, or receive funding from them, while others may simply have a broad investment portfolio that includes Israeli companies, or just Western companies that also do business with Israel.

So it's not like all colleges and universities in the US are all supporting Israel in the same way, and therefore divesting from Israel can vary in terms of how complicated the process would be.

A report came out today confirming that 99% of pro-Palestine protests at US colleges have been entirely peaceful, despite the hysterical rhetoric from Congress and the corporate news media.

I don't think I've seen a greater disparity between the mainstream dialogue surrounding a current issue and the actual reality of it since the 2003 Iraq War.

I read that in Werner Herzog's voice.

Shout out to Encounters at the End of the World, for those who haven't seen it.

For #1, I found it easier to force the Linux installation to use local time instead of UTC by running the following in a terminal:

timedatectl set-local-rtc 1 --adjust-system-clock
