This report from @dexdigi.bsky.social IS incredible.

Another day, another outage — instead of rehashing why our reliance on a handful of big tech companies for our access to literately EvErYThINg is bad — I’m going to point you to the last three times I had to do that over the past 4 weeks, which led to a great convo with @dexdigi.bsky.social

NEW for the Ten Four: The Adelanto ICE Processing Center and its conditions inside are the subject of dozens of concerning stories, but rarely is there an opportunity to actually talk to those inside the facility. I was able to get inside (kind of). latenfour.com/2025/11/06/i...

very proud of this title right here lol (also, the conversation is good. @ccs.bsky.social was brilliant on this one. I will never call DNS a 'phonebook' again)

shout out @johnfugelsang.bsky.social , this was fun

gotta be one of my favorite recent conversations. i recommend it (not because i'm in it, but because @micahflee.com broke this down so anyone could understand both the 'technical' side and the political side of why this means so much to people.)

actual champion right here. salute 🫡

Yeah I cant think of a good reason for this

Jimmy Bonner. A black pitcher who played in Japan, for Dai Tokyo, in 1936 (eleven years before Jackie Robinson broke the color line). I wrote about him a while back: www.npr.org/sections/cod...

ayyo, kill switch just got another award. thank you everyone who listens to us every week! www.signalaward.com/winners/deta...

Big appreciation to @rossminor.bsky.social for being on the show! Even if you've already read the article, this is a whole different experience (because you hear his voice!)

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

the 'disability tax' applies to videogames, of course. more good work from @supercrip1994.bsky.social

My union—the LA Times Guild—has authorized a strike with the support of 85% of our membership. This comes after years of brutal layoffs and no cost-of-living raises since 2021. Next up: we bargain. But if we have to strike, we will 🪧 laist.com/news/la-time...

Rod Johnson, a 67-year-old military vet, said he never thought the presence of federal agents in Chicago would impact him. When asked why, he said, “Because I’m a Black man.” thetriibe.com/2025/10/sout...

I've really been enjoying the kill switch podcast with @dexdigi.bsky.social It's about tech, but not full of VC inside baseball, press release hype, or featurespeak. www.iheart.com/podcast/105-...

Hi, just a note— The local ICE/ERO agent directing his team to fire at reporters' faces in Chicago this morning has been threatening press since we showed up at immigration court in June. His agents shot us both at close range last week, too. None of this started today!

truly an honor to be mentioned next to names like this!!

may it ever be so

Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"

this is absolutely worth following!

in case you are wondering how capitalism is going, i tried to write the word 'centibillionaire' and my autocorrect did not think it was a real word i am teaching the computer how to talk about people with 100,000,000,000 or more dollars

that Golgo 13 is better by basically every measure. - he's a better shot - has no state backing; gets his own gadgets - no nationalistic allegiance to any Imperial forces - instead, he fought colonizers in Mozambique (and won) - fought the KKK (and won) - saved Nelson Mandela once lol

read this post yesterday and then today two people asked me for advice on what computer to buy, and realized that I am a Guy as well. also I transferred some VHS tapes for a friend. wow i am multiple kinds of Guy, I contain multitudes god bless all the Guys (gender-neutral) out there

they have finally done it. AI has come for jungle

Greetings all! I absolutely hate doing this, but I’ve been unable to successfully work or process invoices for the majority of the last several weeks due to a fractured rib sustained during a protest on August 8th. I could use some help. www.gofundme.com/f/help-sean-...

just reposting this to say yes, please apply for this, and then if you get the Features gig, holler at me and i'll write something cool with you lol

And they're threatening to arrest the press who are here. Maybe 5 of us?

An incredibly important bit by @dexdigi.bsky.social on the @404media.co hang out: (about the LA protests) "How do you tell people `watch out for surveillance` when the entire point is [to be seen and tell everyone `we belong here`] ?" www.youtube.com/live/URaS3Eg...

this is usually the correct take!

copyparty. this is amazing. a server contained in one file. i just tried it - threw it on an old linux machine and it ...just works. point your browser at it and you're accessing anything you want. it even plays .xm and .s3m files www.youtube.com/watch?v=15_-...

'The nest had a radiation level 10 times what is allowed by federal regulations, officials said.' i would absolutely love to read the official federal documentation that outlines the specific upper limit for how radioactive a wasp nest is allowed to be

i couldn't help myself

this is culturally inappropriate

i love the idea that you can say something terrible to someone, and then say 'respectfully' afterwards and it's okay i know this isn't how anything works, but i just love the *idea* that this is a valid thing to do

jet set radio predicted the future

man.

come through!

yo @404media.co has been doing incredible work recently

DHS has deployed predator drones over protests in Los Angeles. @dexdigi.bsky.social i spoke with @josephcox.bsky.social of @404media.co about his reporting on how federal agencies are using these weapons of war inside the U.S. — both for surveillance and for propaganda.

Awesome stuff from Ross and Dexter here. It's testament to Ross's story that Dexter frames it in such a clear and well-written piece. Can't stop thinking about all the cool aurally textured games Ross could make, given the chance.

i caught some of this on video!
