Old laptop got boosted. Wasn't updated for 6 years. Microslop tried to install Win11, then said buy new hardware, then tried to install anyway. Didn't worked. Zorin OS works great. Will also try out Lint Cinnamon, Cachy, Pop and some Arch.

The CEOs of Visa, Mastercard, PayPal Holdings and Stripe received letters Thursday from Federal Trade Commission Chair Andrew Ferguson, who demanded they not discriminate against customers based on political or religious grounds.

The FTC threatened enforcement action if customers are denied services for those reasons.

Any act to “deplatform customers or deny them access to financial products or services” may violate the Federal Trade Commission Act and “could lead to an FTC investigation and potential enforcement action,” the agency said in a Thursday press release. The FTC didn’t cite any specific infractions by the companies.

The commission is typically made up of five members, but has just two at the moment. President Donald Trump last fired two of the Democrats who sat on the commission.

Can you show us a cool photo you took recently? We wanna see what you found cool enough to take a photo of. We usually take photos of things we’re interested in or are unique enough to put into a reference folder we have for art and well we’re wondering if anyone had any good photos to share! :3

Thank you!

Also the photo on this post we put up is a train we saw in the Train museum here in Spain! We had so much fun and think this would have to be the one of the more impressive ones (tho not our favorite haha)

Anarchy is a political structure where there’s basically no one in charge, right? But wouldn’t that just create a power vacuum that would filled by organized crime, corporations, etc.? Then, after that power vacuum is filled, we’re right back at square one, and someone is in charge.

Are there any political theorists that have come up with a solution to this problem?

The local leaders of the union representing T.S.A. workers characterized the ICE officers in airports as unhelpful and a distraction.

Research.

leaders with the most prominent Trump-resistance group organizing “No Kings” answered that complaint Saturday when Indivisible’s Ezra Levin took to the stage in Minneapolis and announced that a nationwide general strike is planned for May 1, modeled after a successful local action that shut down much of that region in January
