It (always) bears repeating that the phrase "open source" is defined by the open source definition:

https://opensource.org/osd

The OSI invented the term "open source" and it has always been defined by the OSD. There are systemmic gaslighting campaigns ongoing to convince you otherwise. Remember: the only people who are trying to convince you that the OSD does not define open source have ulterior motives, namely convincing you that their propreitary software is open.

The Dept of Health and Human Services has quietly given carte blanche to doctors who are making life and death decisions related to covid-19, by waiving liability for treatment errors and omissions resulting from covid-19 care. This means doctors cannot be sued or sanctioned for fucking up your care, except in cases of willful malpractice, but that’s extremely difficult to prove, especially during times like these.

The medical field has historically been filled with rampant bias against PWD, fats, BIPOC, and trans people. Legislating liability waivers should be a big red flag for everyone, even though oppressed people have been telling their stories and waving red flags about this for literally centuries.

Advocate for your loved ones, friends. Tell the world this is happening.

Due to social distancing, only 3 - 5 feral hogs will be allowed in the backyard at a time, and each must remain six feet apart.

#xkcd 's latest #comic offers a hopeful, amusing take on society's response to #COVID19 and diseases in general, looking at the situation from the viruses' perspective: https://xkcd.com/2287/

CC @Azure - reminds me of how you might encourage folks that are worried: "We're not not trapped in here with the coronavirus. The coronavirus is trapped in here with us." :)

if you have backups, check that you can still restore files from them. then make a new one today

if you don't have backups, do you have spare storage lying around? old DVD-Rs, a loose SD card, some unused free cloud storage? copy some of your files today, be they legal documents, family photos, your minecraft save. whatever matters to you. if storage is tight you may have to make some tough calls but please don't put it off just because you can't save it all in one go
