Where the fuck does this pernicious myth that Microsoft is somehow secretly controlling the PSF come from? To keep coming up so reliably, with absolutely zero evidence, it honestly seems like some kind of coordinated disinfo campaign.

Hi hello, I'm Bridget from Los Angeles! At 27, I'm taking my first steps on Mastodon.

I recently quit my desk job to reimagine my life outside of corporate America. As such, I've got spare time to reimagine the internet alongside you fine folk. No spare money though. Womp.

I'm a writer (or will be once the burnout subsides), interested in the brain, identity, culture and empathy.

Hobby harpist+violinist. Always down some research rabbit hole. Occasionally funny!

From my perspective, the ATProto social graph would be more useful as a "find your friends" across apps, not necessarily auto-follow. Rather than sending all your contacts to every app, you can choose which of your apps to "recommend" follows from.

Blogged: The Windows File Explorer replacement, File Pilot, is awesome

In this post I describe my experience with the Windows File Explorer replacement, File Pilot. It's blazingly fast, feature rich, and has hotkeys everywhere

Today is my birthday. Ever since I was young, starting about 5 years old from what I can recall, my internal definition for what "old" was, was 60 years. If they were 50, 40, 30, 18.. they were not “old people."

Today I turned 60 and this is really the first age-based change in perception of myself. I feel like an old person.

(BTW: I also think of myself as more liberal than ever, but self perceptions blind us to our own biases.)

I've decided to live dangerously this evening and upgrade all my Apple devices to xOS 26 (the one with the infamous Liquid Glass). The upgrades went smoothly, but it will take me a while to get used to the new UI. My initial impression of it is that it's an odd step backward, but I rarely like UI changes these days, so nothing shocking.

Let's see if my opinion will change in the days to come!

@andypiper I have posted this to the Github issue tracker (with trace) four times now and no one ever responds anymore. Have they just given up on this bug or what? I’d ask Claire directly but I can’t be sure of her ID. If you could pass this along, I’d be grateful. TY

I'm typically not the kind of person who buys merch, but since my Mastodon experience is such a great one (and the merch is really cute), I decided to support it and buy a plushtodon and a mug.
I also had the thought, that this is the perfect way to introduce myself to the Mastodon communities, so here we go:

Well, hi! My name is.. not public for now, because I'm a very privacy conscious person, especially when it comes to the vast space, that is the internet - so just call me 'Chestnut'. ^^

'Mastodon stuffed toy (mini)' in orange, 'Mastodon Pumpkin Spice Elephant Mug', Mastodon sticker with QR-code and '#plushtodon sign' on brown table.

Flock itself is the security risk, not the sites making it crystal clear how Flock is violating people's privacy. IMO services like HaveIBeenFlocked are absolutely necessary to wake people up to how dystopian things have become. They're doing a critical service to the country and humanity.

A reporter, Amanda Moore, who is OTG in Minneapolis explains some of the footage she shot recently of ICE.

But what really stands out to me is the shocking operational cadance and aggressive pace of the CBP/ICE occupation.

Moore says that she used to be able to take the weekends off from report and go home from the front lines.

The frontlines are everywhere now. Everywhere she turns there's an ICE operation. She

Hi, I’m José. Just moved over from Twitter.

I’m a software engineer based in the UK. At work I build distributed systems in Rust; outside work I experiment with languages and systems programming, and I read a lot (classics, sci-fi, history). My blog is linked in my profile (recently migrated from GitHub to Codeberg).

I love talking about low-level code, performance, and distributed systems, and anything book related.

Feel free to say hi, and I’m always happy to receive book recommendations.
