Social media disappointments:

  1. Journalists are still actively participating at exTwitter, thereby actively supporting Musk, who is helping extremists bring down democracy and, by extension, a free press.

  2. Reddit got away with stomping its volunteer moderators and users, and its execs are cashing in on an IPO that in a more just world would have flopped.

  3. Writers I respect decided to stick with Substack despite arrogant, extremist-friendly investors and leadership.

Hmm, I wonder if someone is trying to find Michael Fichery (Cold Case, Yosemite National Park near Hetch Hetchy) using high resolution synthetic aperture radar imaging from Umbra? They are dumping a ton of data from that location (all open). http://umbra-open-data-catalog.s3-website.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/?prefix=sar-data/tasks/Hetch%20Hetchy%20Reservoir/

“Paradoxically, what KOSA does is it removes the ability for teens and children to find information when they are experiencing the very sort of health problems and other problems that KOSA is trying to address,” EFF’s @aaronmackey told @NPR https://www.npr.org/2024/02/18/1232301930/how-tech-companies-would-be-affected-by-the-kids-online-safety-act

@eff @aaronmackey @NPR being paradoxical doesn't exclude it from being intentional, I'm sad to say

ai6yr, (edited ) to Dogs

Hmm, a very large dog just came up to the window (outside) here where I am working--about 5 feet way from me--and starting a loud howling for a few minutes, and left. (not my dog). Last night there was a raccoon there all night, and a coyote wandering around. Now I am wondering what is so interesting right here outside.

(I think it was a dog, because it was wearing a reflective collar... but now, I am not so sure).

(For the record, the dog here inside was very confused--but not alarmed--about why a strange dog was howling at the window)

I had an "ah ha" moment when thinking about the angry responses to yesterday's blog post.

(This one, if you missed it.) https://terikanefield.com/section-3-and-the-spirit-of-liberty/

First, I'll share a positive response. (Screenshot #1)

(Screenshot #2 was typical of the angry responses.)

About 5 years ago, I took the tact of responding to "there are never any consequences" by listing the consequences.

I figured, you know, facts. For example, see #3

@ai6yr the pd helicopter seems to be flying more than a thousand feet above the other three. I would have thought it was the other way around
