I got a start in upgrading 7 donated laptops. 4 are done. GNU/Linux Mint with Xfce desktop installed in about 30 minutes per computer. Another 10-15 minutes to run updates. Specs: 4 to 8GB of memory, hard drives (rather than SSDs). Instead of being recycled they are ready for continued use. Totally usable for day-to-day general use. Anyone can do this kind of direct action, community mutual aid that conserves energy and resources.

Four computers  running GNU/Linux Mint on a circular table. Three are laptops and are in various states of installation and/or software updates. The room has grayish/maroon carpeting, a dark green couch and a rocking chair is a comfortable waiting/recreation room at a non-profit that supports adults in recovery.

Microsoft "Using AI is no longer optional.' 👈

Microsoft pushes staff to use internal AI tools more, and may consider this in reviews. 'Using AI is no longer optional.'

https://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-internal-memo-using-ai-no-longer-optional-github-copilot-2025-6

Please, act accordingly. You have been shown, now you can decide.

10 LESSONS FOR STRONGER MOVEMENTS

  • Imperfect allies aren't enemies -

    Critique to build, not tear down

    Organize, don't just argue

    Movements win, not individuals

    Perfection is the enemy of progress

    Ego kills movements

    Plan for the long game

    Meet people where they are

    Power doesn't care about feelings

    Division is a weapon used by elites

    Don't play along
