The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.

3 years ago today, the armed forces of Ukraine liberated Kherson.
Ever since, Russia has done everything in its power to make the city uninhabitable.
From across the river, they relentlessly bombard Kherson with glide bombs, artillery, and drones.

Seriously, if you have a Sikh gurdwara in your area please let people know about this. We have at least one here in Detroit Metro that I know of. Bonus is that Sikhs are, on the whole, extremely rad people.
Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries.
No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.

A lady on TikTok has been calling churches pretending to be a mother with a baby who needs formula and several churches turned her away. But wouldn’t you know that when she called a Mosque (Islamic Center of Charlotte) they immediately said yes.
