This is a great thread on both social distancing and the issues around privacy of your personal data.

This shows the location data of phones that were on a Florida beach during Spring Break. It then shows where those phones traveled.

First thing you should note is the importance of social distancing. The second is how much data your phone gives off.

As much as I hate dealing with Electron, at least it has made Linux feasible for daily use. Not only should devs be focusing more on apps than new distros but on better distribution as well. The one thing I've come to miss from Mac is Homebrew for just that reason.

Technical enthusiasts are encouraged to direct their passion and creativity towards creating fresh apps for Linux users.

Here’s an idea, instead of shaking hands/high fiving with people; just Kermit Flail.

In light of the pandemic-shortened seasons, I'd like to propose that the @NBA@twitter.com and @MLB@twitter.com combine the remainder of their schedules to salvage as much sporting action as possible.

That's right nerds... It's time for BASEketball!

Thoughts from CNN takedown of a Russian troll farm operating out of Ghana and Nigeria.

1) Alarming that a group of 24 kids working on Samsung Galaxy’s (no laptops) at a big table were able to reach more than a quarter of a million people, mostly Americans, in just a few months

Normaal gesproken bezorgt #picnic mijn boodschappen omdat ze goedkoper zijn dan de plaatselijke Jumbo. Was wat vergeten te bestellen en trof de Jumbo zo aan. Het is geen oorlog, mensen!

China's gov figures for #coronavirus infections, if true, are extraordinary. Just 8 new confirmed cases in the mainland today: 5 in #Wuhan + 3 in Beijing/Shanghai who were arrivals from overseas. Unlike early weeks, we're not hearing much in the way of rumours that contradict it.
