One Democrat broke party lines in the house to allow Trump to keep up the war. I wonder what the jackass I blocked who thought we shouldn't bother reps by calling them and asking them to do their jobs would say now? Probably more puerile insults at best. #uspol #congress #iranwar

Trying to edit a stupid FCC comment on Yet Another Fucking Stupid Orbital Data Center (fuck you, Blue Origin) and I need to go outside and rage-scream for a while. And I have an easily accessible hayfield to rage-scream in!! (Also maybe baby goats, I'll check for those too #babygoatcountdown)

@threatresearch in a timely turn of events I recently became aware of @climatetown (Climate Town) on YouTube and Rollie produced a Right to Repair video which is very approachable. https://youtu.be/NG-lLt5X3Rs I don't know if that's something legislators would actually watch and respond to.

Okay, here's a long shot for the #fedi hive mind. If you are in the intersection of "#musician or musician-adjacent in the 1980s" and "keyboard / #synthesizer aficionado", this one is for you. In the mid- to late-80s, I used to spend a lot of time in music / #Instrument stores (not selling CDs […]

Articles of Impeachment submitted to the Judiciary Committee today. Quite the list and still just scratching the surface. I can't wait for the soundbites of MAGA Mike Johnson blathering about why there's nothing to it. https://www.congress.gov/119/bills/hres1155/BILLS-119hres1155ih.pdf #uspol […]

I know this is being presented as an “acting” appointment but I cannot stress how sickening it is for Trump’s DEFENSE LAWYER to be serving as U.S. Attorney General. Trump says Pam Bondi to join private sector after ouster; Todd Blanche to serve as acting attorney general – live […]

My thoughts on today's protest. * I wish people were less aggressively weird at protests. A lot of people I see out at protests are almost a parody of themselves. I don't think it helps the cause by dressing like it's Halloween, we want to be taken seriously. * I wish more speakers were better […]

"Microsoft 365 has more than 450 million paid commercial seats. After roughly two years on the market, Copilot has converted approximately 15 million of them into paying users. That's a 3.3% conversion rate, at $30 per user per month, generating roughly $5.4 billion in annual revenue. That's […]

Pitch perfect declaration by Zack Polanski, the new leader of UK Greens.

Spoke to the Guardian about the idea of quitting LLMs for climate: -“I see this all as very much part of the tactic of trying to embed these systems into society and instil dependency in a fashion similar to the growth of single-use plastics in the 1970s.” www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Denver Mayor Johnston's transit report card from Denver Streets Partnership. https://denverstreetspartnership.org/mayors-report-card/ #denver #colorado #urbanism

Big Journalism carries water for Trump as usual, obligingly calling the Republicans' voter-suppression legislation by the name they cooked up to make it sound just fine. The bill would destroy what's left of our democracy. The only thing it would "SAVE" is white male supremacy. Do better, media.

RE: https://techhub.social/@keepandroidopen/116126023448256005 At Vivaldi, we believe you should be free to install the software you want on a device you own. This is as important for Android as it is for iOS, so we'e signed this letter to Google, along with friends.

Worth repeating: Claims of "AI" democratizing anything (coding, creative endeavors, etc) are always BS. The thing locking out people from doing that is not having the time/resources. You want to democratize coding/art/creativity? Give people paid time off to do it and access to infrastructure […]

#kaiser moved from #apria to Adapt Healthcare. I hope Adapt is better than Apria, I'm so ready to be done with that company. It's crazy to me that you can be locked into a company for supplying your medical equipment by your insurance provider. Sounds like a gravy train to me.
