I want to make a documentary about the elevator company Schindler. I'm going to call it Schindler's Lifts.

Projects that have adopted the Open Source Maintenance Fee? opensourcemaintenancefee.org/consumers/li... Do you know of any others?

Every time Trump smiles, it looks like he's trying to soil his diaper.

I can grant that AI is faster at building apps. I can grant that it's "better" in many cases, for some measure of "better". But I'm a software developer because I enjoy developing software. I can go not-enjoy any job. I do this job because I enjoy it.

every single action creates a tiny step towards a better future. The resistance and kindness people show today will echo into a better tomorrow

Dear musicians, Why the HELL are you not only subscribing to Spotify, but sharing links to your music there? Why are you helping this company grow, despite them throwing you under the bus every single chance they've had in the last decade? I legitimately can't wrap my head around this.

Happy pride month

@thatsabsurdshow.com I was really hoping for a diatribe on Doug and the bubble after the show. Now I have to go look it up myself.

SharkNATO would've been a completely different movie.

Every time I see a video where someone is exploring nature, and there's a shot of them walking/cycling/whatever away from the camera, the only thing I can think about is how they have to go back to the camera to pick it up. Same goes, but reversed, if they're going toward the camera.

Another feature I'd like to see is license enforcement.

While his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse — gleefully. Read more: www.theverge.com/tech/949259/...

The worst excuse I have seen from GenAI and LLM users is: "But I don't have the time to learn that skill!" Either make time, or stop. Everyone that learned a skill did it with passion and drive. Please do the same.

I finished Metroid Prime 4 this weekend, so I can finally watch content about it. 95% scans 92% items Just over 19 hours Really great game.

How have people gotten your name wrong? I phoned in a pizza order a few years ago, and they took my name down as Grak. I'm not sure whether that's a name. Anywhere.

Congratulations to my boy Stanky for winning the Stanley Cup! We miss you over in #TexasHockey and never should've traded you.

@robmensching.com where did you get to on your eduforcement effort?

Having a couple of million dollars would change my entire life. I could pay off my house and get a small vacation home. Maybe even a nice boat. Why on earth would anyone need a billion dollars?

There are many reasons we pasteurize milk, but it's mostly because of this.

When I used to get comics in the newspaper, I'd skip over the sappy ones like "Love Is...". Now, I see more parts of the reality we live in, and I recognize the importance of these. Shout out to @foxes-in-love.bsky.social, @grebcomics.bsky.social, and @markoraassina.bsky.social delivering light.

@thatsabsurdshow.com and @probsnotaliens.bsky.social both mentioned Doppelganger by Naomi Klein in your latest episodes. What the hell guys? Your overlaps are supposed to be months apart, not at the same time. Get it together.

People will die because they did this.

He wants to force himself on Kennedy? What?

@thatsabsurdshow.com into it, you cited a 2026 paper when this exists from 6 years ago. youtu.be/egEraZP9yXQ?...

How's the #TexasHockey fandom liking that trade of Rantanen for Stankoven now? I think I'd have rather kept Stanky.

If you're sick on your birthday, you should get a redo.

STOP TELLING ME AI IS THE FUTURE OH MY GOD

The economy is slow. People can't find jobs, so they don't have money to spend. So what's NZ's solution? Fire a bunch of people!

Imagine an internet without streamers and influencers #web1.0

The hardest thing about being stuffed up is trying to breathe while chewing.

Why had no one started a class action against Microsoft for their failure to respect requireLicenseAcceptance in nuget? Companies offering commercial software on nuget should have a legitimate case #dotnet

This is what your neighborhood will be like after your representatives sign that Flock contract. Get involved before it's too late.

For all the Open Source Maintainers, a message to the world.

Wondered why the hell VLC had started taking something like a minute to add files to the playlist when double clicked. Noticed that somehow Copilot had installed itself without asking, onto a win10 machine, which I thought was out of service. Uninstalled it, and VLC opening files is instant again.

@aproblemsquared.bsky.social you say ~400y of energy, but that's just the energy of the rocks descending. There's also energy in the increased rotation of the Earth (because the mass is all closer to the center). What if you could harness the energy gained by maintaining the day length?

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

@thatsabsurdshow.com I am flabbergasted that you didn't bring up the amazing documentary The Abyss.

The 14th Amendment includes this sentence: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which granted citizenship to those formerly enslaved. If you're anti-14th Amendment, you're pro-slavery. 🤷🏿‍♀️ #blacksky

If I had envelopes numbered 1-100, arranged in order, and inside #38 was $100, and you picked #37, we'd say that you were close. But if I had numbered coins in a bag, 99 blue and 1 red (#38), disordered, and you picked #37, can it still be said that you were "close"?

I see a lot of people using #IsItOctoberYet wrong. Guys. It means that the season is done according to you, and you're just waiting for next season to start. IF YOUR TEAM IS STILL PLAYING, YOUR NOT WAITING FOR HOCKEY TO START AGAIN.

#IsItOctoberYet? #TexasHockey, you didn't want it apparently. How do you go the whole season playing as well as you did and then just give up in the playoffs? Always a fan, and that's why I can say I'm disappointed.

When I introduced the OSMF, people told me that enforcement would be my biggest problem. It wasn't and isn't. Procurement remains the biggest pain point. The challenge is that there is little I can do to fix the root issue. Instead, the OSMF serves as a simple forcing function.

here come old laptop he come bootin up slowly he got broken touchpad he need one more update he got no space on this pc one thing i can tell you its got no warranty

This is a war based on lies

So when AI has replaced all the junior software coders of the world and the senior ones retire, who will be left to “fix” an AI when it runs amok? I feel like that needs to be addressed before we just let AI program itself.
