If there was one robot that could defeat the dreaded wedge, it would have to be the grater bot. 🥁

if I hire an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he instead presents me with a list of reasons he is incapable of doing so while asking for more money so that he can maybe handle it later, I am not angrier at the roaches, I am in the market for a better exterminator

I created an interactive map showcasing all the #hackerspaces worldwide. The data was sourced from wiki.hackerspaces.org using wikiteam for scraping. - 1214 active hackerspaces - Presence in 113 countries - Average years open: 13 - Average members: 103 Explore the map here: hackerspace.sh

Ok but seriously, what am I going to do with a nearly 4-foot-tall (114 cm) Cool S, I've run out of wall space for such a thing. Do I let it into the blank wall space I keep for professional video calls? Do I mount it on the ceiling over my bed??

If you apply the dynamics of a subculture scene to the billionaire/ruling class scene, then a lot will make more sense. It’s a small community, the doesn’t do anything about known abusers and their actions have consequences for the rest of us. But they’re all buddies, even supposed enemies.

The Maricopa County attorney Rachel Mitchell confirmed that her office will not bring charges against Proud Boy Charles Brandon Recor after he punched a man who was being restrained and killed him:

The most honorable use of a new fabrication tool (see previous post in thread)

Here's what we know about the shooting outside a Planned Parenthood clinic in South Carolina today involving anti-abortion protesters. We spoke to volunteers + reviewed footage of the incident. Anti-abortion violence is sharply on the rise—essentially encouraged by the Trump admin:

Nazi rally in phx coming up. Act accordingly

I can’t believe the reason we have fascism in America is essentially the queer subplot of beserk.

I wrote a little comic about #opensource hardware and serviceberry foraging! I'll post all the panels here, but you can also read the whole thing on @archive.org : dinalab.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?...

Television killed the radio star. The internet killed the movie star. Fascism killed the social media star.

The special election is in 2 weeks and Turning Point Action shifted most of their GOTV team to this little known recall and after Kirk died the volunteers significantly increased. Their goal is to shift Mesa to an even more far-right stronghold, TPUSA folks encouraged Mark Lamb to run in CD5 too.

Our CFP is closing this Sunday, let's see that awesome talk you've been stewing on! sessionize.com/cactuscon-14/ #cc14

Awhile back I made a simple URL shortener weird.link Have fun!

16 year old Jason: Will you still like BBSes? 23 year old Jason: Will you still like zines? 55 year old Jason: I just used a program to write a program that writes a program to scan old zines for BBS numbers for my global BBS list. 80 year old Jason: Touch grass, jesus

WHO UP STARING AT INTERNET ARCHIVE WINAMP MILKDROP VISUALIZER

Great: You can do text searches inside of all printed documents uploaded to the Internet Archive Not so Great: Found myself severely misquoted inside a book I'd have never otherwise found

The incompetence of ICE agents has helped me understand why stormtroopers have terrible aim in Star Wars.

I'm on in ~2.5 hours (2pm Pacific / 5pm Eastern)! Excited to check out some other talks, hang out with #OpenHardware nerds in the chat, and dig into details on the new #ArchimedesBot – plus Halloween! Also publishing Archie's v3 tutorial on @hacksterio.bsky.social & will add that here afterwards~

Arguing online is a waste of time. I would rather do something productive, like procrastinate for weeks at a time.

It is painful enough that one of the most awesome people I know, a member of Cult of the Dead Cow, lost his youngest son. But the medical bills from the trauma center coming will cause very deep hardship. If you loved the best textfiles, send some monetary love to this family. gofund.me/7c09530e9

further update about the specific mechanisms they want to use to attack anti-fascists (not just "antifa" but anti-fascists more broadly)

🎧 lo-fi microfiche digitization (to study/relax/preserve gov docs to) Back online: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxUj...

Shariah bans charging interest and requires charity (zakat). Project 2025 supports deregulation and protecting the wealthy.

Fascists fight immigration, asylum seekers, black or indigenous people of color, Jewish people, Muslim people, the lgbtqia+ community, visa holders, higher education, and non-English speakers. Anti-fascists fight fascists.

The Tylenol in my brain is screaming we’re moments away from a flashpoint event.

I assume this happened to all of you.

They are going to stage a mass test killing in the concentration camps at some point soon. At this point it’s the next stage. This will be used to normalize routine lethal suppression. They’ll say it was a “riot” and they had no choice.

My hope is that more voices rise up now, because silence only deepens the harm. A community is only as strong as the way it treats its most vulnerable, and right now this country is failing that test. #ice #chicago #socialjustice #immigration #photography

When boats enter the picture in rising global conflicts, always assume war is on the horizon. Prepare accordingly. Assume your communities will need to fend for themselves. Have decentralized communication fallbacks. Have systems of mutual aide ready. Build networks of trust.

Only weeks after Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted, his first big public appearance was at AmericaFest 1 where he came out to a custom song and thousands of screaming fans after the screens displayed graphic footage of his victims. 🎥 Throwback:

I finally watched mulholland drive. It has the same plot and ending as The Room. In this essay…

Many of us are censored everyday. Every. Single. Day. Black women especially. We’ve been sounding alarms forever. We’ve been doxxed. We’ve been deplatformed. We’ve been fired, canceled, ousted. All for courageously speaking the truth (not lil jokey jokes).

When you create another account just to try and troll Black women, but you’re definitely “not racist.” Yall swear up and down this place is better than Twitter, though.

The Antifa movement began in 1932 in Germany as Antifaschistische Aktion, specifically to oppose nazism. ANTIFA in the US started in response to neo-Nazis in the 1980s It specifically is anti Nazi. So what would you call someone who is opposed to antifa ideology?

Luffy’s heartbeat is literally the dabke (Drums of LIBERATION) and you got some One Piece “fans” saying the show ain’t political lmao

A night at Glastonbury Abbey with the Stereo MC's as they insist on spelling it. Channeling my inner Mark Corrigan there. Good night though.

New, w/ @mulchy.bsky.social & @djbyrnes1.bsky.social: ICE shot & killed an immigrant in the Chicago suburbs yesterday. Then they immediately gave a misleading account of events. Chicago erupted in chaos and a father who lived here for decades is dead. This is what really happened:
