There's more information about the components of this system here:

There really isn't much to this Holesail project - it's a little convenience wrapper around Hyper DHT and that's a part of this Pear project it seems. That site has a list of the various components and links to each one's GitHub.

Pear looks like an interesting project but I haven't looked through the details of how it works.

Some patients are spending a year and a half in hospital isolation receiving old medicines instead of just six months of treatment at home, because countries do not have access to the most up-to-date therapies to cure people of the infectious disease.

If it's a question of cost, then keeping someone in hospital for a year and a half surely has to be more expensive than just buying the drugs.

Apparently it's a suspended sentence and they are not in custody, so no prison time will happen. Just business as usual for the exploiters.

Conservatives know this would be enormously unpopular, which is probably why, when they talk about Comstock at all, they often refer to it by its criminal code numbers rather than its common name. (“I think the pro-life groups should keep their mouths shut as much as possible until the election,” said Mitchell.)

That's not how a party with any intention of representing the will of the people would behave. Republicans serve only the rich and the Christian fanatics.

What's wrong is they have a major fascism problem.

They understand beer. They don't understand science. They don't particularly like people who do.

I don't understand how people get these ideas, except that they live on a diet of propaganda. Conservatives never help anyone except themselves.

Great that they're using the GPLv3 license too.

Poilievre's Conservatives are an awful option and will only further harm the country. But they are winning the propaganda war at the moment, with many people somehow convinced they have something to offer. It's the usual right-wing fearmongering and scapegoating as a distraction from real issues they have no plan or intention to address. But once the right wing media machine starts to do its work it's hard to see others catching back up again.

KDE Plasma is so much more snappy and functional than Windows. Linux has lots of good options.

So we don't have to go to that site:
