I can’t go out and protest today. I work for a government contractor and need a basic security clearance, which means my First Amendment rights are void under the current administration. (Fortunately I’m with one of the agencies they’re afraid to touch, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be fired on a whim.) And there’s part of me that would be happy to give it all away to punch a riot cop in the face, but I have 8 cats who depend on me to keep my job so we can keep this house.
And I have so much rage in me right now that I could not be trusted *not* to throw punches.
To everyone out there today, be strong, and be loud for those of us who can’t be there — the silenced government employees, sure, but moreso the disabled and the targeted, the ones who can’t physically be there and the ones who are the biggest targets. Be safe, be smart, and be LOUD.

@DrJLecter so, installing Linux was difficult, but have you ever had to perform a fresh install Windows or Mac OS? Having installed Windows and Linux hundreds of times, I'd argue it's quite a lot easier to install a good Linux distribution (Ubuntu is not my favorite, but it's Good Enough) than Windows on a new PC, but you never see that because 90% of new PCs sold have Windows preinstalled.
There are systems builders that preinstall Linux, for what it's worth.

@ParoleSparse io penso di no, o probabilmente con enorme difficoltà. Tu che pensi?

@grabbi_it ci sono molte persone in entrambi i popoli pronte a uscire dalla faida per intelligenza e convenienza e non per buonismo o oblio.
