I hope no one indeed will be "off limits" in the criminal investigation, let's see...

I agree. I love Mastodon's calm columnar UI with lists and hashtags where I feel I'm in control of my experience, and that I can just stop whenever and come back in three days.

I agree with you, I'm also missing context. I agree this looks very fishy for the police to be paying her a visit with the "you are walking a line" comment, but without knowing all the details, I'm reluctant to jump into definitive conclusions. I really hope this story gets picked up by media so we at least get that side as well, however imperfect it might be.

Just forwarded this pic to my dad. I'll be guiding him in installing Mint on one of his old Windows desktops this coming Saturday! Wish us luck in the coming years 😂

My situation exactly, and I'm very happy with it. M2 with its speed and long battery life compensates well for some unconfigurable behaviours in MacOS that I have minor gripes with, and for gaming and general Linux goodness, Steam Deck to the rescue.

"Fenwick invested $3.5 million into buying the $7.4-million property in 2007, making him the largest shareholder. He alleges that after more than a decade of minimal activity, Rice suddenly called a meeting in June 2021. He says Rice urged him and the other investors to take advantage of a “spike” in demand for industrial property by selling the land, adding that it could take another decade for the municipality to build sewer and water services, and developing the property privately would yield a low return on their investment."
