The one guy at Summer Games Fest showing up with his "Make FPS Great Again" hat made me actually physically recoil

If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1962...

You know you can just not use AI, right? You can make a choice not to be part of this. Even if your job uses it, YOU don’t have to in your normal life. You don’t have to let your kids use it. You didn’t have it three years ago. You can just…be on Team Human. You can choose.

Eid Mubarak to everyone! Eid Mubarak to our sisters & brothers suffering genocide in Gaza, to Sudan & Congo, Syria & Afghanistan, Yemen & Iraq, Pakistan & India, USA & UK—to all humanity. May this Eid remind us of our obligations to serve all humanity & infuse in us the courage to act with justice

Well this couldn’t have come at a better time www.bbc.com/news/article...

Bluesky right now:

Just a reminder that Elon Musk is now directly, personally responsible for the deaths of ~300K people abroad who depended on USAID, which he took away just for cruel joy of it.

NO LIE: When I saw the Beastie Boys at the garden they had a DOG CIRCUS open for them. Everyone thought it was a joke till curtain parted and little hoops and slides and dogs! Packed MSG crowd cheering for these dogs like they were the biggest stars ever. It was amazing.

AltaVista (1999)

Not sure if I needed to activate all that in Docker just to activate the PostGRES SQL DB and set up a DB but I did anyway and it was fun. Now to find a database to import with fake data. I used some years ago and I think those are down.

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

While Elon and Trump have your attention, get ready to pay more for health insurance in the next year if this GOP bill passes. www.healthcaredive.com/news/reconci...

Saw a Hummer on the road today. Remember in 2004 - 05 when it's size was a shock?

Other than de-mphasizing monogamy, this just seems like "normal, healthy relationships" to me. And I have no problem de-emphasizing monogamy if everyone is on board.

Folded like a cheap suit, complied, and still got him coming at them. Never give in to bullies.

Reminder that Bookshop.org helped me find a physical copy of the book my recently-dead relative wrote.

ITS HAPPENING Firefox 127 shipped today making it the first browser to support Temporal - the new API for working with Dates, times, timezones + durations

I will say, even tried and true topics of debate are more productive on Bluesky because people aren't afraid to discuss instead of reach for the status quo.
