Well, only very specific viruses entry the nucleus, most often due to not bringing along enzymes needed for replication. Then, there's transducing viruses and non-transducing viruses, of which only one will retain it's genome in the host genome. Both occur near oncogenic gene locations too, which is why viral infections can lead to cancer, but this isn't very common at all. IDK, guess I've always felt bacteria are way more complex and that it makes sense CRISPR comes from them. Bacterial viruses, aka bacteria phages, were the evolutionary pressure which lead to CRISPR's development. But I'm a nerd and stay up to date with it all, so maybe that shifted my outlook.

Sorry for the delayed reply, but I studied in this field as welll, so curious why you thought CRISPR would be associated with viruses over bacteria or even mold/yeast?

In Fedora, I ran into the same issue, but I fixed it by running flatpak update -y in terminal. Hopefully that works on your end as well.

Stallman's attempt to rename Linux to incorporate the GNU name not happening was frustrating on his end it seems. Everytime someone calls their system a Linux based OS and not GNU/Linux based OS downplays the work he put in. However, Linus's kernel was more elaborate than GNU Hurd, so it was incorporated. It's said Stallman is a visionary, while Linus is a programist. While there's never been any display of tension in a back and forth between them online, it's always seemed to me they appreciate and also despise various aspects of each another.

At least a dozen colleges and universities have changed their policies to make it harder to protest the war on Gaza. More may follow this summer.

If you ride the bison for 8+ seconds, you get a free sticker from the park rangers!

Their "privacy" claim is only in reference to Google and Microsoft, which is a ridiculously low bar to hold up to....

Great list, this post is getting saved without question! I don't see Kolourpaint though, which is a great FOSS digital art program. I'd say it should be added to the list as it's my go to for light weight photo editing. Also, Obsidian isn't FOSS, which may not be what your looking for specifically as it has a free option. I prefer Standard Notes as it's FOSS and great for managing notes privately across devices.

I feel like its pretty great. The additional VPN connections are nice and you can set it up on your router too.

SimpleLogin is the biggest benefit from the email options for sure. Unlimited aliases plus you can setup unique domains which then allow you to make email addresses up on the fly.

Drive now syncing with photos on smart phones is super nice. Also awesome to be able to share files from Drive to anyone. You can set passwords and/or time frames for the link access too.

I'm staying with Bitwarden + Aegis as it seems like too much of my data in one place using Pass for passwords and 2FA.

Calendar is cool, nice knowing it's setup with zero-knowledge encryption. You can also share events with folks that use any calendar.

With the Standard Notes news, I'm hoping this will result in having some of the bells and whistles that Standard Notes gives paying customers. But I haven't found anything regarding this so far.

All in all, it's worth the price for sure. All security focused with the ability to make it the backbone of your online privacy too.
