A poll: you're watching a baseball game. You don't know either of the teams or have any attachment to any of the players.

I am too young and don't know any people from the USA who know / have experienced this time.

Question in the round: Is it intrinsically worse than the McCarthy era / J. Edgar Hoover?

At what point did you recognize that the US had become a fascist state?

Once upon a time, working on a website granted you the title of "Webmaster". As the Web evolved, more specialized roles took over and the title fell out of favor.

Searching for it now, I don't find many job listings for "Webmaster". So now I'm curious: how far removed from that job title are we?

When was the last time you heard of someone with “webmaster” as their actual job title?

As a KDE Plasma user, I was always jealous of some of the nicer GNOME apps.

Recently I realised that I don't need to be. I can run GNOME apps on KDE Plasma just fine! Sure, they look a little different, but they work just as they would on GNOME.

Do you mix apps from different desktops?

(If no option applies to you, please comment instead)

A junior developer broke production. Do they get to help fix it?

The weekly #YouGov #poll provides no relief for the #LNP, who are down 2 on the primary vote to 31%, maintaining a descent from 37% in mid-March.

Less than half of this has been gained by #Labor, the latest result having them up half a point to 33%.

#TheGreens are up a point to 14%, while One Nation enjoys a remarkable three-and-a-half point fillip to 10.5% — their best result in any poll since the 2022 election.

Labor’s lead is out from 53-47 to 53.5 #auspol #ausvotes

Presidential approval ratings after the first 100 days (Gallup).

Clinton: 55%
Dubya Bush: 62%

Is the art of letter writing dead? Rachel Syme, a New Yorker staff writer, doesn't think so. She started a letter-exchanging program called PenPalooza during the early days of the pandemic. Now, she's written a book of advice on finding a penpal and writing a good letter. Her book, "Syme's Letter Writer: A Guide to Modern Correspondence," which was published in January, also offers inspiration in the form of letters from people like Octavia Butler and Zelda Fitzgerald. Here's @npr's interview with Syme. We want to know: Are you a letter writer, or — like us — have you not sent a handwritten note since 1988's epistolary masterpiece, thanking your Auntie Tríona for the pencil case?
