I have just been told that lawyers still use ftp (seriously ft-fuckin-p) to transmit evidence, case information and other data that I think most of us would consider sensitive and I am trying my best to not start screaming.

Hey @blowdart.me ....

Omarchy is the software arm of a fascist project

This is why jury duty is important.

The Azure Linux icon is really clever, both clouds and penguin (at least to my eyes)

These are rookie numbers. We can get these numbers up.

So, how much seasoning are you supposed to use for a black cat?

Okay friends, let's play a game: I.... I mean you... YOU have put an SD card in a "safe place" to not lose it. 5 minutes pass. Now you need the SD card. Where is it?

Evening sir, do you have a moment to talk about.....

Hey @amye.org .....

oh my goooood the eye-roll convulsing my face hearing the news cover openAI’s “security incident” CLEARLY using a bunch of language from their own press releases about its “autonomous agent” “going rogue” JUST SO THEY CAN HINT MORE THAT IT’S ACTUALLY FULL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (it is not)

@amye.org : "I love that we can just wave a magic wand and get the house fixed up!" Me: "that's called a credit card"

A brief recap of the game for those who missed it...

I swear to god this cat treats his body like someone else is paying his vet bills.....

I pledge allegiance to Malort...

nice try, you’re not getting my ass to book a room at the Overlook

hey, I get to use this gif twice in one day!

Certainly living up to the hype....

War Thunder's about to get (even more) insufferable....

Remember kids: We're hardwired to look for threats (predators, danger, etc) which is part of why we get caught in the doom scroll so easily. Seek joy. touch grass. play with a dog. Do something to make someone smile. Be kind. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Also if anyone wonders if SpaceX revenue growth will make the difference: well MSFT has managed to double revenue every ~5 years for THIRTY YEARS to get to this position. So doubling six times. And mostly with a relatively capital light model? Good luck matching that!

Treebeard! Noooooooo...

O'Reilly books are getting a little weird....

These rock, but those plastic edges....
