@georgetakei What the fuck is wrong with these right wing nut jobs? Public health professionals are not the enemy. JFC, this is so stupid.

@georgetakei Damnit! Got me!

Oh fuck off!!

Hey #Linux nerds, Pixel Buds Pro 2 support the Opus codec on Linux. Best sounding buds I've tried yet.

Disappointed that @protonprivacy is jumping on the AI and cryptocurrency bandwagons. Your users want an ethical platform, not just privacy.
