The bane of my existence is the so-called "Modern" Search Engines that are incapable of finding a fucking substring in a string.

"The hallways...were absolutely lined with ICE agents. And immigrants were scared to leave, even though their cases were still open. What happened was that ICE agents then stormed into the courtroom, kicked out the attorneys, and detained everyone in the courtroom over the judge's objections."

Vile. Disgusting. "Normal" behavior to experience for too many people in the industry and especially women. I'm hoping the companies and people shielding the perpetrators and silencing the victims have to pay.

The FBI is now going after trans people and their healthcare. Today it's gender affirming care, tomorrow abortion. This is the authoritarian playbook on display.

The internet keeps presenting me with irresistible ideas for my D&D home game 😏 ✅ "Helping a travelling theater group with setting up their romantic drama performance" was added to the shortlist 😂

Vor Fremden wird gewarnt. Dabei wäre es wichtiger und richtiger, wenn Kinder wüssten, wie sie sich bei Übergriffen im engen sozialen Umfeld Hilfe holen können. #SexualisierteGewalt #Kinder #Kinderschutz

Very nice that they also included sample code for sysmon and scanning MSI Custom Actions :)

Just gonna re-up these slides about how the Nazis destroyed German physics 🧪

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Good morning

GDC Session evaluations came in, had to share this piece of feedback from our mentoring talk. The "political" thing said was that the onus is often on marginalized groups to organize and mentor and we'd love to see more devs in leadership roles -- which are overwhelming cis het white men -- mentor.

It's here! Modern auth for Entra Connect Sync is now available 🚀 This finally moves from user/pass to auth with Entra to using a Service Principle with a certificate. Another benefit is misconfigs in CA policies will no longer break syncing :) Docs: learn.microsoft.com/...

And it's a super easy setup/upgrade, go do it now! #Entra

Hundreds of former Afghan commandos & their families were refused relocation by a UK Special Forces officer with possible links to a war crimes enquiry where they could’ve been witnesses. At least five were later murdered by the Taliban. The MoD then lied about this to Parliament & the courts.

Peter Fischer: "Die #Eintracht ist nicht mehr mein Verein." Es mag sehr hart klingen. Aber besser, eine solche Integrationsfigur sagt es rechtzeitig und weist auf die offensichtlichen Probleme hin #sge

Hundreds of users are demanding that GitHub add an option to block issues and pull requests made using the company's new Copilot AI agent. The new feature was announced on Monday and works via a dedicated GitHub user that cannot be blocked. github.com/orgs/communi...

“Security policies (1 of 1 applied)” during #Autopilot ESP. Ever wonder what that actually means? @call4cloud.nl reverse-engineered how ESP tracks policies and even got it to show more than 1. Not prod-safe, but super cool. Check out the deep dive ➡️ bit.ly/3ZupSbL #Intune #Autopilot #MEM

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

Utterly shameful.

These, btw, were the words of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought, head of OMB and the person set to take over Musk‘s role at DOGE- to bully civil servants they can’t legally fire to resign by „putting them in trauma“.

I think there's a reliable 0% chance that in the episode that has Joe Pantoliano on screen this callback to Bad Boys II was just coincidence 😂 #TheLastOfUs #BadBoys

Scientists Have Been Studying Remote Work For Four Years And Have Reached A Very Clear Conclusion: “Working From Home Makes Us Happier.” farmingdale-observer.com/2025/05/16/s...

Manchmal hab ich so Momente wo random Erinnerungen hochkommen wie es so war als junges Mädchen in den 90ern. Diese vollkommene Normalisierung von wirklich ätzendem abwertendem Verhalten ggü Frauen. Blondinenwitze. „Jetzt stell dich nicht so“ an Situationen. „Komplimente“. Unerträglich rückblickend.

So we're turning Noclip's sister channel into a games coverage outlet with a mission to highlight the work of lesser known developers alongside the biggest games in the world. We're just starting the process, but if you're interested in learning more, I filmed a thing: youtu.be/0GqDUD0kCuM

As I discussed in Talking Climate last year, research shows a four-day work week boosts productivity and well-being — AND cuts carbon! One study, for example, found a 10% drop in hours = 8.6% drop in emissions. So Jack's question below is a good one: why aren't we advocating for this more?

I need a week of healing after these last three episodes 😭 What an absolute gift. Will lie down now.

What's the lifespan of a "temporary" workaround in IT? Approximately the same as the universe, according to the ancient IT proverb: "There's nothing as permanent as a temporary solution." #sysadmin #IT #linux #unix

Eugenics. That’s it. Pure and simple - eugenics.

Man muss jetzt gar nicht die AfD rauf und runter interviewen. Man muss auch nicht ohne Not behaupten, dass das auf jeden Fall nur der AfD hilft. SelbsterfĂźllende Prophezeiungen. Muss man nicht.

I heard Stephen A. Smith tell CNN yesterday that "people are afraid they're going to lose their job for messing up a pronoun" and it really amazes me how many people don't realize they are awash in intentional propaganda designed to make them afraid of the wrong things and angry at the wrong people

AfD jetzt auch offiziell „gesichert rechtsextremistisch“. Eine Entscheidung, die Folgen haben muss, insbesondere für den ÖRR. Eine „Gleichbehandlung“ von Rechtsextremisten verstößt gegen den Programmauftrag. Verfassungsfeinden darf keine Bühne gegeben werden. Nicht in Talks, nicht in der Tagesschau.

Wrote about this many years ago on Twitter, but your actual goal should be 5 trains/buses an hour - so a 12 minute interval. This breaks a couple of important psychological barriers for people, based on research by TfL (London's transport operator). Will explain. 🧵 /1

These: Es gibt keine Male Loneliness Epidemic. Es gibt lediglich eine Gruppe von Männern, die es aufgrund toxisch männlicher Sozialisierung nicht schaffen Beziehungsmodelle zu leben, von denen beide gleichermaßen profitieren. Für immer mehr Frauen ist das aber nachvollziehbarerweise bare Minimum. 💁🏻‍♀️

TRANSLATION: Truckers are going to lose their jobs en masse when the Trump tariffs tank imports, so it's important to pre-distract them with racism.

Diese und vorige Woche habe ich in den ersten Stunden meiner Grundvorlesungen (1. & 2. Semester) wieder längere Exkurse zum Klima eingefügt. Beeindruckt hat mich ein Student, der danach kam und sagte: „Wir alle wissen, dass wir am A* sind; aber Sie sind der einzige, bei dem man es auch spürt.“ =>...

It's official. Resistance Summer School is happening. Columbia cancelled my class on Race, Media and International Affairs, but I'm going to teach it anyway. 100+ people have enrolled in just six hours. karenattiah.substack.com/p/enrollment...

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while: t.co/lg46ijHLDF

Something German media could learn from. Don’t make the same mistake.

When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles. Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.

Der ewige Irrtum: Als könne man Faschismus bekämpfen, indem man ihm Foren eröffne und Bühnen überließe. Faschismus lässt sich weder domestizieren noch einbinden noch diskursiv erledigen. Faschismus zerstört eine Gesellschaft von innen, mit ihren eigenen Waffen. Wehe denen, die ihn gewähren lassen.

In UK wird durch das Urteil nun ßbrigens die KÜrperkontrolle durch Polizei an trans Frauen von männlichen Polizisten durchgefßhrt. Wir alle wissen das werden einige ausnutzen um jede Frau die sie kontrollieren zu begrabschen und Gewalt auszußben. Mßssen ja nur sagen, dass sie dachten die wär trans.

This is some fascist stuff: illness as a moral failing, bodies assets for and property of the nation, “health” equalling morally good, while illness is coded as parasitic on the nation. Dark times.

Every single non-white immigrant I have spoken to since the German elections has talked to me about planning an exit strategy before the next elections. Every single one. One is in the process of leaving. I know this is what the fascists want and also - I don’t blame them at all. Life is too short.
