I love cheating at video games by *checks notes* using linux

Weather TV my family watches:
"Super blizzardo blast! Strap everything down and don't go outside or else you'll be flash-frozen like in a cartoon!"

Reality: *I turn up the thermostat 1 degree (Fahrenheit), for a single day, and I walk to go get groceries.*

This is what we want! :3

The process is documented here
support.google.com/accounts/an
and involves:

1. Making sure you'll never need your Gmail address again. If you are registered somewhere with that address, change this now!
2. Probably downloading your Gmail data. You can simply export it to GDrive: takeout.google.com/
3. Delete Gmail through: myaccount.google.com/deleteser

Step (3) will ask you to add a replacement mail if you havent done this with option (a) already. Afterwards your Gmail will be gone and nuked (you have some grace period where you can still recover it though).

Jack f*ing Dorsey having the keynote at FOSDEM is a disgrace. He has made no meaningful contributions, is a no-one in this space and wants to talk about Open Source culture? Are you kidding me?!??

Why are we allowing this to happen? He should not be welcome as a speaker, let alone holding the keynote.

@tobi techbro lawrence of arabia thinkin he's 'gone native' with the bedouin

calling yourself a "nomad" because you have a fancy remote tech job that pays you silly enough money that you can lug your laptop around on holiday all the time
calling yourself a "refugee" because you've moved from one social media platform to another

^^ they're the same picture
