I've been playing GTA Online here and there to relax, it's nice to be in a less chaotic and violent environment for a bit.

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

I bothered to actually talk to some immigration officers and their views on ICE's shooting of Renee Good are more divided than I expected: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/immigratio...

"It wasn't murder, and if you say it was murder we will kill you, which again will not be murder."

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.” (H/T @marcofoster.bsky.social )

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

Time zones don’t fail loudly. They fail silently. Here’s how to handle dates correctly with Quarkus and Hibernate. buff.ly/b8N86Fl

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

Felon Trump isn't a king and shouldn't get to dictate what gets aired. If the writers of the Constitution had intended to have state-controlled media, they wouldn't have written the First Amendment.

Listening to my work mate sing their lungs out to “do they know it’s Christmas” and I’m sat here like: I wanna go home.

He was despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.

Thinking about licensing again. I'm torn between the MPL and EUPL. I'm mostly after an MPL that closes the SaaS loophole: use my crates and jars where you like, but if you improve my work, share alike. This sounds like the EUPL, except I can't so easily tell, less explain to a skittish corporate […]

This is Pancho. He’s mad because he asked for five more minutes and then you woke him up five minutes later. Unforgivable. 12/10 (IG: panchothediva)

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

You don’t actually learn things from ChatGPT et al in the same way you do through reading and thinking. Parents, you must absolutely stress this to your kids or they will be disadvantaged intellectually. #ai #llm #chatgpt futurism.com/artificial-i...

Tim Cook is damaging the apple brand.

The White House dinner last night for MBS was a coterie of corruption & back channel access that has become synonymous with the #Trump regime— Notable Attendees: Elon Musk, Tim Cook, David Ellison, Marc Benioff, Michael Dell, David Sacks, Charles Schwab, Stephen Wynn and many more..

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

You’re out of your element, Economist.

A Detroit police officer appeared in court virtually wearing his uniform top with no pants on Judge: “You got some pants on, officer?”

I am describing my politics as “arachno-communism” from now on

we used to respect computer

this is the best movie i've ever seen

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high. SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”. Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers. People need & deserve assistance Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich Be mad about that

Factorio is a power fantasy game for engineers. I love indulging in the delusion that I could escape an alien planet by building my own space program with a pickaxe.
