  • “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”

    – Mark Twain

    I’m not sure how to fight this constant assembly line of misinformation coming from hate groups like the current party in power, but we need something g more effective than the truth. Than words. The truth needs to be out there loudly and rapidly, but more needs to be done.

    I hate to be the guy in the meeting saying something’s wrong without providing any kind of solution, but that’s where I’m at. It’s easy to say that news shouldn’t be for-profit, that creating and disseminating patently false information for the purpose of intentionally misleading the public should be punished as something like slander or something, or that the “news” complex in the US needs to be dismantled…but those are long, long term goals. And likely not realistic to expect in my lifetime.

    It’s how authoritarians spread the fear and hate they need to survive, though. We have to cut this misinformation flow out somehow.

    I dunno. Just venting. Frustrated. Sick of the lies thay prop up this dessicated zombie of a failed capitalist state. Sick of the inaction for any opposing factions in the government.

    That’s all. Carry on with what you were doing.


  • Stunned. Shocked. Gobsmacked. My gast has been flabbered. A psychotic dog-killing attempted-mass-murdering terrorist is a religious right winger? But his god wrote a Holy Listicle of Top Ten Things You Shouldn’t Do and killing was in it.

    Next you’ll tell me that this wasn’t personally motovated and he had lists in his car of targets and gatherings that were all solely Democrat or left-leaning.

    I’m glad the info is being disseminated, don’t get me wrong. The turbo-violent, wildly insecure, hate-filled, extremist terrorist party currently in charge of the country has definitely been trying to paint this as some kind of false flag, so the truth needs to be out there no matter how obvious it is.

    I’m just exhausted that everyone else keeps continuing to play by rules that have been broken so hard by the hate-cult-turned-political-party that they’re going back and stepping the shattered pieces. Any opposition they have refuses to stop wringing their hands and trying to compromise. You can’t play by broken rules and expect the same outcome. This is the start of what you get when you do.




  • There was a post about this on the Framework Community forum ages ago, and as of the last time I checked (which by now was like six months the ago) the only solution was to tape over a few of the exhaust holes on each side of the back of the GPU module.

    It’s counterintuitive, but it actually helps airflow since most of the heat actually comes from the CPU, so the hot air is forced out the sides more which helps keep the CPU cooler. It also helps the whine when the fans are at full tilt.
