New: Google has chosen a side in Trump's mass deportation campaign. Google is hosting a CBP facial recognition app to hunt immigrants; no indication Google will remove. At same time Google takes down apps for reporting ICE sightings “Big tech has made their choice” www.404media.co/google-has-c...

I just heard that actuaries value human life at around $10M. I wonder if these actuaries have sliding scales based on region.

The solar wind is still cooking! Bz is tanking to -20 nT now and wind speeds are extremely elevated > 800 km/s. The central U.S. could see more aurora tonight during substorm activity. Keep an eye on things, and I’ll update as the night goes on.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

I don't care about VR, but the fact that the new headset runs SteamOS on ARM with a translation layer? Huge. Absolutely HUGE implications for the future of PC gaming. www.pcgamer.com/hardware/val...

I haven't been to a show in awhile. It's so cool that we could all experience this flash visual arts show together! What a great time. Keep posting those pics. Great show #aurora! Really crushed it here in the midwest! Glad to hear you made some appearances in the south east! #space

🎶 Deli Rye! I remember I heard you say "I want the caraway".🎵

Got my Caraway seeds. We're gonna make real Rye sourdough today. I'm thinking about 50% rye to 50% bread flour.

I just breezed through a Google Project Management Specialization Cert and I would hope so after 13+ years working in Digital Production.

The beat. The message. A good way to kick start Monday.

The bumper says 'rugged working man'. But the cargo bed says ‘cosplay builder with soft hands’. Time to ban these fragile-man-mobiles from our cities.

I learned recently that Wesley Willis did drawings. I found one on at a local restaurant.

"The jury — which feasted on sandwiches for lunch on Thursday, according to a person familiar with jury lunches — deliberated the charges for several hours on Wednesday and Thursday before delivering the verdict." 👏

This is fantastic! I'm sure there are engineering concerns but this is excellent news for Australia.

I present to you my chicken ocarinas. I think I made these about 32yrs ago.

My mind has somehow tied Event Horizon into the Hellraiser universe. #movies #film #horror

I think 2026 is the year I really strive to make 'bojo' the emphatic pejorative it can be.

I can't remember what volume of @2600.com this was in. I just know it was many years ago.

I can't wait to see what this crew does. They have done excellent journalism and should be recognized for it.

Just had a great product feature for streaming platforms: don't show movies/shows with actor X in them.

The universe took the wrong exit and we ended up here.

We've been stuck in an alternate universe since 1997. Coincidentally, that's when @radiohead.wastehq.social released OK Computer. It finds you where you need it.

Oh, making an accessible website is too complex for you to bother? Sounds like you aren't very good at your job then, eh? #A11y #WebDev

Dear LA, take it to the streets and do not stop. Pull in the people that don't even watch baseball. Then remember, if you can do this for a baseball team think of what we all can do if we join together for our country.

I'm getting a mission critical stare on halloween night. Tonight is a special one because tomorrow is #caturday

Yes! I'm watching Frankenhooker. Yes! I'm double grounded.

Just finished Dredge by @blacksaltgames.com. Fun game! I was looking for a relaxing fishing game and ended up dodging hallucinations.

Anyone who can't consistently accelerate is a jerk! #physics #humor

as a condition of funding, we were asked to affirm that we wouldn’t undertake any diversity, equity, and inclusion work, whether or not we used the government funds to do so. The PSF simply couldn’t agree to that statement,
