The Story of Operation Warp Speed Gets Worse

"The Department of Justice agreed last year to take on Moderna’s liability for patent infringement which, given the billions #Moderna earned via federal largesse, could easily add up to billions."

Is there any text-based, ideally distributed monitoring software out there? I want a TUI that shows me (e.g. with green/red highlights) the reachability of hosts (simple ping checks) while I'm doing network maintenance. Like a really simple, curses based nagios? It would probably look like a bloomberg terminal.. (I know this wouldn't be too hard to implement.. but I can't believe it's not already out there...) #linux #TUI #monitoring #network #networking #sysadmin #software #curses #terminal

Keeping it simple:

What Really Happened? Simplest summary is that unjustifiable population-wide lockdowns were instituted and prolonged in order to create the need and opportunity for rushed experimental "vaccines" to get authorization. Along with all the natural origin propaganda, exaggerated casedemic counts and fatality rates, and vehement denial of available anti-viral treatments.

GOP Senator Rand Paul earlier this week charged that newly released emails dating from the pandemic exchanged between COVID era health officials working with Anthony Fauci provide evidence of an “extensive cover up.”

WHAT WE EXPECT IS THAT THE "POWERS THAT BE" INCLUDING W.H.O. - THE CDC - AND THE BIDEN REGIME WILL START TRYING TO SCARE US ALL ABOUT THE BIRD FLU ABOUT SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER 2024 (You know right before the election).

According to DR McCullough (who tried to tell us about the effectiveness of Ivermectin to keep people from dying from Covid): Chloroquine is highly effective treatment for acute H5Ni infection in preclinical model - Bird flu study in human cell and mouse models confirms therapeutic success.

LOVE TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE WHO IS A REAL EXPERT IN THE FIELD OF RACISM.

LeBron - Oprah - and Obama are the "elites" who still race hustle and pandeer to the people of color - If America was actually racists none of them would be where they are now - NOT ONE OF THEM....

2D point and click game "Duck Detective: The Secret Salami" was released recently. It has a native Linux version and is available DRM free at GOG.

Semi FOSS BIOS "Coreboot" has been updated to version 24.05. This update adds support for twenty five new motherboards, fixes for clang support, added support for EL2/EL3 onm ARM64, and more. The code to Coreboot is licensed using GPLv2.0. The reason I call it semi FOSS is that it does have to include varying levels of closed source blobs to make many models work. Having some FOSS in Coreboot beats having a fully closed source BIOS though and it is a good step for users to take to get more privacy and security for their devices.

The project's main website is here:

coreboot.org/

The code is hosted on Github:

github.com/coreboot/coreboot

The release notes for this update are here:

blogs.coreboot.org/blog/2024/0

The project has a presense on Mastodon:

firmware.network/coreboot

There is a more thorough writeup on this release by Phoronix:

If you wish to donate to the Coreboot project you can do so through Paypal; cheque or wire transfer.
