Fun fact: If you have snapclient configured as a system service, and pulseaudio/pipewire as a user-level service, snapclient will completely block pulse or pipewire from seeing the audio card.
That was a frustrating two hours.

It was true then, it's still true now. All it takes for fascism to continue is enough "respected" and "moderate" and "centrist" people to give fascists "the benefit of the doubt," even well after the fascists have stopped pretending to be anything but.
Quislings are collaborators and complicit.

Well, I just finished Star Trek: Section 31, and I think it's the most fun Star Trek movie since ST IV.
Oh, tonally it's NOTHING like any of the other properties (except maybe Lower Decks, a bit), but that may be the point. It is a load of self-contained fun.
Or in other words: If you typically find Star Trek slow-paced, too serious, and talk heavy, this is the Star Trek for you.

If you had any doubts about how nasty the flu is this year, let me put them to rest. I have never had influenza like this.
I'm guessing either I got unlucky with the strain or I got vaxxed early and the season was super late. Completely leveled me for days and sent me to the ER. On day 5 and still winded from walking around the house.
Asymptomatic contagious period before onset of symptoms: 1 day.
Be careful, and mask up, y'all. Or spread it to anti-mask/anti-vaxx asshats.
