"just press 0 until they let you talk to a human" hasn't worked for large companies for 5–10 years and i wish people would stop with that advice. they will just drop your call.

phone menus are designed to deflect calls from actual customer service, and they get upgraded until they can reliably do that.

lesbians either have a very sharp, penetrating gaze or a scattered/dazed look in their eyes. In contrast, straight girls are more likely to have a soft or people-pleasing gaze.

oh, you're in an AuDHD for AuDHD queer relationship? so, like, how does that work? how do you decide who doesn't notice there's a problem, and who silently resents cleaning up after the other one?

i think the biggest news out of today's liblzma backdoor is that someone on earth is still capable of writing m4 code

The malicious injection present in the xz versions 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 libraries is obfuscated and only included in full in the download package - the Git distribution lacks the M4 macro that triggers the build of the malicious code. The second-stage artifacts are present in the Git repository for the injection during the build time, in case the malicious M4 macro is present.

"so you like this girl, huh?"

"babe. like doesn't cover it. i wanna do weird stuff with her that i don't fully understand. i wanna… dammit, i can't even say it out loud!"

"c'mon. no judgement. judgement free zone."

"i want. corn. cicadas. woodsmoke? i wanna… i wanna move to the countryside with her and try to revitalize the decrepit-ass farming town that one or both of us grew up in!"

"…"

"you said 'judgement free zone'."

"i'm not gonna yuck your yum, it's just taking me a minute to process that you're into that cottagecore shit. you know you can just have sex, right?"

"maybe you can. i googled 'how to co-sign a farm loan' last night, and i don't think i can ever go back."

hi i'm John Everydaycarry and today i'll be going over my every day carry, the essentials that no American should ever be without, or be legally compelled to leave outside the courthouse, or told not to take on a plane. i've come to this week's loadout after years of optimization:

• gun
• fire starting kit
• smaller folding backup gun
• paracord
• flashgun. now that's the RJ-800i Apocalyptor, a space-saving innovation from Mountain Tactical Industries, sponsors of this week's episode, and it's a gun with a flashlight under it.
• some more paracord
• gunlight. no, my mistake, this is the RJ-800i. the flashgun is a flashlight with a gun under it, and that's the MTI RQ-820b Obliterator. haha, don't get those two mixed up when the shit hits the fan, viewers.
• additional paracord
• gunwallet
• you can never have too much paracord. my first wife said you could have too much, so i made a second wife out of paracord, and she don't sass me so much, heh.
• gunkeys
• underwater low-temperature ballpoint gun
• bullet journal

well that's all folks. like and subscribe! next week i'll show you what my dog wears on her collar every day. i'll give you a hint: it's guns. stay safe out there.

this is Ryza! she's a PowerBook 180 in fairly good condition and the nicest 68k Mac i own.

this MARCHINTOSH, i'm going to try to upgrade Ryza with a WiFi-capable PiSCSI (fka RaSCSI) so i can test and someday play Atelier Esri, my homebrew Atelier demake.

i'm also going to try out a brand new JCS PowerBook 1xx battery. and while i'm in there, i can at least inventory the capacitors and check the PRAM battery.

unfortunately, like most 180s, her active matrix screen is developing "tunnel vision", slowly fading from the corners inward as long as she's on. (it reverts when she's not, but it can take multiple days, far slower than the fading).

fortunately, Ryza has video output and is capable of driving a VGA monitor or capture box, so i won't need to rely on her screen too much.

you know how some girls are, when you can be on your first date and you're vibing and it's all cute cute fuss fuss, so you reach over the table to boop her nose and wipe a little smudge of pastry cream off, and outta nowhere her eyes go blank and she's all PROVISIONAL COMMAND AUTHORITY RECOGNIZED.

once again, Fedi gets judged on results, Bluesky gets judged on intent

Another is that the BlueSky team has demonstrated, in my personal opinion, enough understanding and uncomfortableness with being in control here, and it’s designed in such a way that if other, better systems develop, you can move to them. They’ve also indicated that moving governance of did:plc to some sort of consensus model in the future is possible. There are options. Also, others could run a did:plc service and use that instead if they prefer, too.

I personally see this as an example of pragmatically shipping something, others see it as a nefarious plot. You’ll have to decide for yourself.
