Considering dipping my toes into #Linux, most likely using my MacBook Air M4. A search told me that Fedora is recommended distro for Mac hardware. Is this true, or should I look at Mint or another one? Is any distro better for screen reader users? Any good guides out there for newbies? #Tech

No Xavi or Tel in the starting line up 😕 #COYS

🚨 Sign! It's almost there! European Citizens Initiative to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement. Israel is guilty of the crimes of apartheid and genocide against Palestinians, no cooperation with the apartheid state. #SanctionsNow Sign here ➡️ eci.ec.europa.eu/055/public/#...

Not that long ago, this would have had serious consequences for a number of people at Fifa. Today? Water off a duck's back. The problem is not just corruption, but how it is now felt that corruption is the default modus operandi of corporations and governments. In other words, "normal". It is not.

🚨 Exclusive 🚨 Fifa's new prediction markets partner has no working product, is unlicensed everywhere except Gibraltar and its CEO paid a six-figure sum to Indian regulators last year to settle allegations of serious insider trading. josimarfootball.com/2026/04/06/i...

With massive debts to private equity company Ares, multiclub owner John Textor’s holding company he uses to control the likes of Lyon, Botafogo and RWDM Brussels is in administration. Least surprising news, but reminder football bodies allowed this to happen. corkgully.com/4069-2/

20 years ago today, Jack Dorsey posted the first tweet. A lot has happened since then, and Twitter isn't really Twitter anymore, literally and figuratively. That's why we created an archive to preserve the funniest, weirdest, and most memorable tweets in the site's tumultuous history.

The best case scenario is Spurs escape relegation this season and ENIC become so rattled by the whole affair and realise they’re not cut out for club ownership that they decide to sell the club at less than they were hoping to get when they first opened the new stadium.

🚨 Tottenham Hotspur actively working on candidates to replace Igor Tudor if decision taken to make another head coach change after Liverpool trip. Unclear whether would be interim again or longer-term appointment but #THFC exploring options @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/711...

I’m about half way through the audiobook of ‘The Lies Between Us’ and gotta say I’m loving it so far. Definitely recommend it. #Booksky

Shelbourne fans calling for apartheid Israel to be shown the red card at their game against St. Pat's on Friday night. The message from Irish football supporters is loud and clear, no playing apartheid. The FAI must boycott the Nations League fixtures, respect the Palestinian picket line #BanIsrael

We are in serious trouble here #COYS

Ratcliffe's comments were anti-football The game has many problems, but one of its virtues is inclusivity, and multiple examples show this Its mass platform can also expose the poverty of thinking from billionaires who decide they like its popularity www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

If the FAI won’t boycott then I hope the players will. Also curious to see if RTE or other broadcasters will show it; RTE considered Israel’s participation in Eurovision “unconscionable” after all. #FAI #NationsLeague #COYBIG

Piece on some of the questions and conundrums now facing the FAI following the Israel draw www.the42.ie/ireland-isra...

To my mind, this is exactly the right take. AI has a number of useful applications but is being vastly oversold in order to make venture capitalists and AI company executives and investors richer. We saw it with bitcoin, NFTs and the blockchain and we are seeing it again but on an even larger scale.

Jim Ratcliffe owns a football team full of foreigners. I wonder if he would also say Manchester United has been “colonised”? What do they make of his comments?

Embarrassing and disgraceful that our government is endorsing and welcoming Trump's colonial 'plan' for Gaza. No mention of Israel not to mind its genocidal crimes. Also completely absent is justice, accountability, self-determination. We support the Palestinian struggle for freedom #FreePalestine

@stevemenary.bsky.social is a must-follow for anyone interested in how MCO works, whom it involves and how it is re-shaping the football world.

Neocons wanted violent regime change in Venezuela. Trump is giving them that. Neocons wanted violent regime change in Iran. Trump is giving them that. Neocons wanted blind support for Israel. Trump is given them that. Tell me again how Trump is different to the neocons?

This thread. All of it.

Israel's security cabinet has approved the establishment of 19 new settlements in the occupied West Bank, a move the country's far-right finance minister said was aimed at preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state. jrnl.ie/6910098

This is the worst thing that’s ever been on television.

Why did they stop? Why can’t they just do the draw? 😢 We’re an hour in here!

This is hideous beyond belief

How much more of this cringey shite before they actually do the draw? #FIFA #WorldCup #Draw
