Dog dammit @microsoft.com, I should send you an invoice for the time it is taking me to uninstall all the AI crap that you've shipped with this new laptop. If I want to have AI on my laptop, I'll install it myself. Please just stop. This is not helpful.

We should all aspire to getting a positive shout out from the Muppets when we pass. RIP Captain Silver

Toss@stevenspoints.bsky.social

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing

Can't wait for it to come into theaters here! But I already know I want to see a bunch of actors saying famous movie lines in the style of Looney toons characters. "I tink we need a bitter boat!"

‘Coyote vs. Acme’ includes a message in the film’s end credits thanking the audience for saving the film: “Dedicated to everyone who posted, shared, held up signs and spoke out when it counted. This film made it to the big screen because of you.”

Dear Operating System Programmers It's 2026. How is it still a thing that when opening a program, or a pop-up window pops up WHILE typing something actively in another window, that the focus does not remain with the window you are actively typing in?

It happens to me regularly that I'll be typing something, need to open an editable file (document, spreadsheet, website, etc.), click to open that file, go back to typing while it opens, then mid word switch focus to the new file. Worse is an OS pop-up, like a restart window.

Middle of typing, and a notification window pops up, and it interprets what I was typing as a decision and the window is gone before I even have a chance to read it. This is so frustrating.

Add a routine either that focus cannot switch to the new program or the pop-up until typing has stopped for X seconds, OR that any typing that is ongoing will be ignored by the popup or new program until it has stopped for X seconds.

True things bear repeating President Donald Trump raped E Jean Carroll in his capacity as a private individual then used his position to defame her and delay justice. That he is a rapist is an undeniable, adjudicated fact. One that doesn't change if you're a Republican or Democrat.

Lindsay Graham is dead. I extend my condolences to his family. As a politician though, good riddance. A critic turned bootlicker for the pedophile in the White House to save his own skin. A warmongerer who never learned how to learn from mistakes.

His opposition to widening access to health care, to restricting access to fire arms, to restricting legal rights of prisoners at Guantanamo portray a man devoid of any moral center that conflicts with political power.

A self-righteous "Christian" who never loved his neighbor as himself. A political grandstander who was fine with stealing a SCOTUS seat from Obama while giving an extra one to the kiddie-fiddler in Chief.

Thing 1: I thought it wasn't a war. Or are you admitting to violating the constitution? Thing 2: We'd rather have Medicare, clean water, affordable food and housing, and a future oriented infrastructure than a war. Thing 3: Where are the unredacted Epstein files? www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

nbcnews.comTrump says it's 'not possible' for the U.S. to pay for Medicaid, Medicare and day care: 'We’re fighting wars'Trump urged states to fund benefits programs instead because "we have to take care of one thing: military protection."

I am single handedly responsible for the death of like ... 20 mosquitos since last night. Too hot to sleep with windows closed Too mosquitoy to sleep with them open I guess I'll just sleep in a week or so

It is SO WAY PAST TIME for the Trump Abomination to be held accountable for their atrocities.

It is past time for the United States to apply the Minnesota Protocol to ICE’s summary executions, writes human rights expert Todd Howland. How to do so and why it’s necessary: www.justsecurity.org/131790/apply...

You clearly have no understanding of your role, the state of the world, or of the value of peace you mother fucking alcoholic self-aggrandizing charlatistic war mongering pleb with a stupid fucking hair cut. Seriously.. there's more oil in your hair than anyone will ever get out of any of your wars

Hey @dashlane.com I like using your password manager, but why is there no "generate password" button in the Password Health window? If I discover a repeated password, it would be good to not have to go searching for the generator to fix the problem. Thanks!

Ah good! The nerds will bring their own lockers to get pushed into.

Error 4-0-Brie: Cheese forbidden. I think NFC's email provider might be lactose intolerant. Something to look into @pinkyfennec.bsky.social

Iris@iris.nordicfuzzcon.org

Sorry Pinky. Someone told us the server had an out of cheese error, so we tried to fix it. Apparently stuffing Mozzarella into the cpu socket caused it to send out a bunch of e-mails.

People do know that Puerto Rico is a US territory and its people are US citizens, right? I cried a little every time someone said that Justice Sotomayor was an immigrant. (Sure.... Someone from Ohio moving to Michigan is also an immigrant?) Bad Bunny is a US citizen.
