Elizabeth Warren campaign open sources its organizing tools

[ad_1] The campaign will have “more to say” in the weeks ahead about what it did with technology.

Windows 10’s built-in Linux kernel will be available to everyone soon

Now that Microsoft is less dependent on Windows sales and more on […]
