I think the argument is that Democrats helped a 3rd party candidate with a similar name to the Republican candidate get on the ballot in the hopes some voters would accidentally pick the 3rd party candidate, thereby “stealing” votes from the Republican. It’s entirely plausible that’s exactly what happened, so I’d be pissed, too, but I feel no sympathy for them with all the other bullshit they’re trying to pull.

    Every day I get at least 5, and I just hit the button to block them and report as spam. I don’t want to reply to the messages since that will probably only make it worse. Is there somewhere I can register the number that’ll spam them back or something?

    Edit: legal suggestions only, please

    I installed Ubuntu 24.04 LTS about a year ago. Now that 26.04 is out, I was planning to upgrade, but instead I think I'm going to wipe and re-install from scratch. Does anyone have any tips or tweaks they recommend for new installs? Things like, do or don't encrypt the drive during the install process, make an administrator account separate from your regular user account? I already plan to install the Flatpak repo and the Gnome Software Center.

    Thanks!

    Over the last 6 months or so I’ve been trying to switch to (mostly) open source software. I’d like to somehow contribute to the software I use and the people making it, but I have no programming expertise or other skills that would be useful. Is there anywhere I can set up a monthly donation so I can at least help support the people who do have those skills?
