Cloud as in "not in my house if it floods or catches fire, or on my personal devices if they break or get stolen, and on a server I don't have to maintain" is actually a good thing.
Cloud as in "I have no choice about where it's stored, I can't take my ball and go home, and the money I pay goes to my enemies" is a bad thing.

Trump has been wanting to invoke the insurrection act so he can declare martial law since January 6. That’s exactly what that day was about but he failed and now he’s gonna do it in Minneapolis.
Once he declares the insurrection act in one city it’ll be another city and another city, he will declare martial law and he will call off the elections.
Didn’t notice we’re not talking about the Epstein files this week because that’s what this is all about.

The citicism of this Wikimedia deal makes no sense to me. AI companies were already using Wikipedia for training data — as clearly allowed by Wikipedia’s license! Yet somehow it’s worse that they give some money back instead of continuing to freeload?

One of these guys, after failing to become a millionaire, joined a writers group that I had somehow come to lead after all the founders disappeared. He wrote a memoir of how he went from being a Harvard frat kid most interested in getting ripped lats to becoming a passionate creative tech weirdo. Naturally it all flowed through riding a bike. Interesting cat!

It's worse than I thought
@anildash : "I talk to young founders these days and for them, there’s no other world than the Trump world. I ask them what inspired them to go into tech and they say they read Marc Andreessen’s manifesto, they read Peter Thiel’s books, and I think, “Oh, your brain’s cooked.” They come in pre-pickled. But everyone else who could have told an alternate narrative has been hounded out of the industry."

I accidently discovered that someone did a fork of #offpunk to make it support #RRTP (Reticulum Resource Transfer Protoco)

But I had never heard of it. That’s exactly the kind of stuff I see people adding to Offpunk!
I'm really liking my new hair clip (poor kerning aside) the message is great, cos it stops people startling me when I'm operating dangerous machines. But also it's a really good hair clip. Better than any I have. Most aren't strong enough for the amount of thick hair I have (my hair is currently past my waist.)

당신과 함께 있으리니, 자는 동안도 지켜 주시어 편히 쉬게 하소서.

twemoji的GitHub仓库和Google Noto Emoji的GitHub仓库都在争吵伊朗的国旗问题（链接在下方）。要我说，还是微软有先见之明，为了避开政治争议，所有国旗/地区旗一律不加进emoji里，不过也给我造成了一些麻烦就是了（只显示成国家/地区的ISO代码，使我不清楚到底是哪个国家）。

I don't know what's more impressive: that making charts without Excel is apparently easier than with it, that Chartpak Graphic Tape still exists, or that the package design looks like it's from the 70s(and wow I dig this vibe)

Well, after a long discussion with my two best employees (Plushtodons) we have decided to no longer accept PayPal payments in our online shop.
This will cost us business, just the same as when we dropped Meta and Co.
We have to make a stand and sometimes this comes with a cost...
We stand with the ICC, EU, Denmark and Greenland!
This is all stupid, Danes are some of the nicest people!
