Staying plugged in all the time hurts you. You can’t function or combat whats going on in your sphere without the ability to know when to disconnect, rest, and parse the information you have so you can navigate it and live. This a skill many of us are going to be forced into learning going forward.

100% chances that he has no idea what the nazi dork is doing. He's probably happy to have him busy and off his ass. Makes me wonder how much of that Vivek learned ahead of time.

He has no fucking clue what's going on! He won his get-out-of-jail-free-card election, handed over the keys to Elon and said "just let me punish my enemies and golf and make billions from crypto, and I'll go on TV and sign things and say very strong things very strongly."

My fellow Canadians! Did you know our trans friends in the US can't seek asylum in Canada despite their lives being in danger in their home country right now? Welp there is a petition you can sign to help change that! www.momentumcanada.net/pathways?rec...

I have not been following this site as much in the past few days. I am using an app to limit the amount of time I spend here. It got easier as days passed and I am glad. I don't need to be permanently on the edge by the live stream of the nazification of USA.

Samsung Digital Wellbeing app timers are broken. They seem to work fine if I use all my time during the day. Timers do not seem to reset at midnight though.

I'm no longer using Gmail. 👏 Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Drive... all migrated. The next step is to remove the Google Workspace account on my device and see what's no longer working.

Receiving mail on FastMail instead of Gmail. It's been 10+ years.

I am going crazy about everything I read here so I am going to use Samsung's Digital Wellbeing to limit my social network use instead of removing Bluesky entirely. I want to keep being informed, but this is robbing me of my sanity.

I'm definitely not a fan of AI but that seems like an interesting development.

Riiiiiiiiiight....

The reason A.I. is being shoved down our throats is shareholders want a return on their investment. Every company that integrates this crappy tech into their products knows you don't want it, but they've sunk too much money into it and don't care. Turn it off, don't use it, don't look back.

Microsoft is going to price gouge you by adding their genAI to your subscription without your consent, and they are not transparent about how to avoid this bullshit. Here's how to change your subscription back to "Classic" for a lower charge without Copilot: answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffi...

#nextcloud it is.

Anil Dash is the best.

STILL

Wow. Respect!

I'm even confused what the complaint from Elon is here. That writeup is accurate and unbiased. It is *simply true* that "the gesture was compared to a Nazi salute." The writeup isn't even taking a side. It's pointing out that people did compare it to such a salute. It also includes his denial.
