What is your plan, #ASHA, for addressing the Dept of Education stating that the study of #SLP and #AUD aren't professional programs and therefore students can't borrow as much $ to find their education?

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

unforgivable web/app UX trend: the thing where the minute you start typing a search, results start showing up every time you add a letter and, inevitably, everything lags the fuck out

i should not have to write my search terms in notepad and copy-paste them in!!! 🫠

You don't have to recompile Linux to use AMD or Intel GPUs on a Pi anymore. And almost all AMD GPUs work great now: www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2025/us...

All Intel Arc GPUs run on the Raspberry Pi now (including the Arc Pro B50, pictured below). See how: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewDJ...

(The same 4-line change to the Linux kernel enables the cards on RISC-V and many other Arm systems, too!).

I count 4 pieces of Steam hardware. Which is proof @valvesoftware.com does know how to count to three and beyond. So the only obvious reason for no Half-life 3 is spite. /S

I kid. Thanks for all the hard work folks at Valve. Appreciate what you're doing for the gaming community and Linux!
