I had always heard that #ShotSpotters were worthless, but now that there has been one parked behind my back fence for nearly 2 weeks, I can confirm that this is true. There haven’t been any gunshot-like sounds near my place, but it has lit up at least a dozen times.

Let’s gooooo…

oh hey welcome to your trial, blackshirts

Not to be a dick but if you are sick and have a cough WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT A YOGA CLASS YOU FREAK

Apple, bring back iPods, you cowards

If #Apple was really serious about privacy, they would have a tiny icon at the top to let you know when an app is listening (like they let you know that an app is trying to get your GPS data).

If you don’t have to look at the markets for work then you don’t need to look at them this week, in fact right now is a great time to take up a hobby like embroidery or sourdough that gets you away from a screen and working on something tangible

For friends not in tech: Picture a fallout shelter deep in the Colorado mountains, like that show Paradise. You store the same info on 3 different storage formats: * A solid state drive * A hard disk drive * A tape backup After 1 year, expect the SSD to lose data🤯 HD, 5 years. Tape, 30+ years

Please ignore tired pieces in publications like the Atlantic that are still trying to stigmatize mask wearing. Wearing a mask to prevent sickness from airborne viruses is a science-informed position, and it has been that way for over 100 years.

Are there any investigative reporters willing to work with me on a piece?

Dear #Apple, There is a 0% chance that I will want you to substitute a song in my library with the “clean” version when you serve it up via iTunes Match. Please fix! KTHNXBYE

One of my #congress folk launched a new site with “Join Team [their name]!” messaging. Our country is in this mess because people act like politics is a sports rivalry akin to the Red Sox vs. Yankees, Cardinals vs. Cubs, etc.

Hey, I need this shared far and wide. These liberals are committed to lying and never have I ever doxxed these people. In fact, they said so themselves 2 years ago.

Ugh, #Twitch support is awful. I created an account under my name ages ago and now I’m locked out. Not only won’t they help me regain access to it, but the account is using my photo and they won’t remove that either so whoever has access now can impersonate me. 😡

#Artists: I need your input! I'm giving a talk on March 5th about AI and the visual arts. I already have a lot of great visual examples of AI gone wrong, but would love to hear more about how you could see it being useful. Thanks in advance and please share!

Over years, I have a few times called Musk a liar (across the country by 2016, then 2017) and thief (money for upgrades), on national TV even. Maybe that’s why my Twitter account has been blocked for a few months despite violating no rules. I can’t get it fixed.

Has anyone made a tool for #BlueSky yet that imports people you follow on other social media platforms?

I bet you guys didn’t know you’re supposed to operate the espresso machine with your dick

With #measles being in the news lately, this is a public service announcement to let you know that even if you were vaccinated as a kid, that can wear off as an adult! I got a titer test when I was 42 that was showing I didn’t have the immunity to measles anymore, so I had to get my MMR shots redone

Going on social media after the #halftime show makes it REALLY obvious who has only ever had white friends. 🙄

Who is everyone using for #webhosting these days? I’ve been with Dreamhost for nearly 2 decades, but they apparently no longer offer phone support for the plan I’m on (which I have only had to use a few times) and for some reason I wasn’t grandfathered in after being a longtime customer. 😡

Does anyone have a recommendation for a #survey form site that is free for infrequent users and isn’t Google Forms?

redesign of the piece that has gotten me restricted/suspended at least 4 times 😇
