They sat me down on the chair. Everyone was standing behind the canwera, my peers, the lecturer, and the class clown. All listening to this tired boy fumble around for something to say (we had prep time, but I was half-asleep). I was glad to get out of the chair, but I knew I'd have to edit this.

I remember doing the editing and HATING it. Not because I was new to Premiere, but because my face was on screen, and because I hated my voice at the time. The lecturer refused to let me edit someone elses. So, I said something along the lines of: "Fine. Then I won't finish it." Though, she helped me clean up the greenscreen, and a few audio splices, this was the one project I was glad to leave unfinished.

Something I forgot to mention, is that I ewas also in my third year of depression at the time. Plus, I was having to get up early for College. So, I was tired, and apathetic as well.

We've owned a Ford F-150 Lightning for four years, and the Ford Home Integration System — recently discontinued entirely, and never 100% reliable — for nearly as long. Yet only recently have we seen Ford's system show even an interest in working properly.

This power cut wasn't a freak event. It wasn't a planned outage, or a safety disconnection to prevent forest fires. Someone lost control of their car and took out a power pole — and it was 14 hours until mains power came back on.

So were we sitting in the dark? Or did the Ford system actually behave well enough to keep us reliably powered? It's time to find out.

California just tried to force Linux developers to build government surveillance into their own free software, and the backlash that followed was so severe that the same lawmaker who wrote the original law had to sit down and rewrite it. In October 2025, a bill passed 76 to zero in the Assembly and 38 to zero in the Senate. Not a single no vote.
