You and M'Benga.

I envy you.

It was telegraphed super hard when they attacked Roe and not Casey but claimed it was about abortion, and in the ruling they managed to take aim directly at the 14th amendment, which they have slowly been doing in other cases.

It's not about abortion, abortion is an easy way to tug on heart strings, it's about absolutely destroying due process and privacy. Without due process and privacy there is no protection... really from the government at all.

Rake is a good one.

Looking at it, I might try to make this breakfast for dinner this week...

The watch reads 3:05 so it's either brunch, or maybe he's a little bonkers with his sleep schedule? Based on what looks like the shadow from sunlight on the wall, I'm going with he's having a late brunch. Don't judge the man. You've never had a delicious plate of bacon edit: (Yes, I know it's steak) and eggs cause you felt like it?

He's a brand ambassador for Omega Speedwatch, which is part of why he does it, but he usually has several watches on.

Knowing this dude's public persona, I'm going with Rings on.

If you want something welded or smashed on with a hammer and you don't bring me the materials, I want cost of materials + 50% up front for custom work. Shit's expensive.

Lego playsets? They're everywhere.

um... DARPA?

It would fucking blow the GOP's mind if Biden walked out on the White House lawn and said "Socialism bad, Corporate oligarchy good".

Because the first thing out of half of their mouths would be "WE NEED MORE SOCIALISM"

And honest to goodness it would take them a day to realize what happened.

It's Cybersecurity.

100%

Absolutely.

Adblocking is good cybersecurity practice. It puts into stark relief how much of Marketing is actually just manipulation and malware.

This is the first one of these I've liked enough to comment on, and I really really love this.

Consider that three common core values of the Fediverse, and open software in general, are a propensity towards transparency, privacy, and decentralization. Literally everything Meta stands for is in opposition to that, including their lackadaisical approach towards moderation. If you look at our value profile, Meta is a threat actor in that regard.

We aren't trying to find out what something new is going to do. A cancer that metastasizes in every host it's ever had is likely to keep doing so, you don't take a wait and see approach. You excise the malignance.

In this case, you surround it with walls until it dies on it's own.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

The hell we can't.

Big oof... can't we use something better than telnet? ;)

I was serious. Conceptually it makes a lot of sense to do, I've thought about a number of CLI clients, but like a federated BBS from someone with the experience to do it right would be... just... chef's kiss

I'm of the wrong era. I got the tail-end of using them and wasn't developing until well into the WWW days.

OMG... we need a federated BBS.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

I would love to see/have seen Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Patrick get a scene together.
