After a long morning of loading the POD, stuffing the car, cleaning, scrubbing, double-checking, all on very little sleep… we’re off! #Canada here we come.

#Hammy loves these long road trips.

First night: Sacramento-ish.

For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.

We’re starting to test a new web experience on threads.net that lets you pin separate columns for your favorite searches, tags, accounts, saved posts, and notifications. If you’re in the test, please let us know what you think 🙏🏼

When you follow accounts from Threads, be aware that @mosseri and the billionaire anti-democracy gang are controlling, hand-picking which content makes its way to Mastodon from Threads.

Anybody have any exciting non-fiction book recommendations? 📚

The ability to mute notifications on your Threads posts is now available to everyone. Quote controls have also fully rolled out, allowing you to remove unwanted reshares of your posts (you can always limit who can quote you when you post).

I’m proud that the team is working on features like these to help keep Threads a positive place and give you more control of your experience. Try these out, and let me know what you think in the replies.

The motivation was simple. "Why am I paying star market $6 for two frozen bananas dipped in ok #chocolate"

In the words of goodness gracious me: "I can make chocolate #banana at home!"

So I did. Buying a 👩‍🍳 block of decent semi sweet 🍫 and using up some ripe 🍌, I halved, sticked and 🥶 on a 🌭 bun pan. After dipped in melted 🍫 once cold.

The problem... They're really f-nom-nom-inally good. Way, way better than the store ones. And I have doomed myself to always know what is possible. 🥺🤯 #desert

Lamppost EV chargers are the answer to how you charge your vehicle in cities.

This is possible because when energy intensive street lamps were replaced by LEDs, there’s excess power for charging EVs.

All cities should do this. ⚡️

Russia is a terrorist state. Putin is a war criminal.

There are zero excuses for telling Ukrainians they cannot demolish russian terrorist missile launchers in russia.

Today, while Biden was wondering if he would allow Ukraine to fire back at Russian missile positions in Belgorod, Russia bombed a large hardware store and shopping center in Kharkiv with 200 people inside.

More people die every day, while we wait for the Biden administration to make the only right decision: Let Ukraine fire back!

I'm amused by what a great slogan for leaving twitter this is:

NEW #TrumpTrial 🧵starts HERE. #Trump #legal

Plz remember to use NFL (Not For Laffy, no hashtag) so I can ignore those replies while live-posting. TY!

1/... Tyler McBrien:

It's 2:09 p.m., Trump walks in with his defense team in tow.

Alan Dershowitz is still here as well.

All five members of the prosecution are already seated.

Well, today starts our long Memorial Day here in my Appalachian hometown. It's always been a big deal for my family, but we pretty much call it Decoration Day and it's not focused on our soldiers at all unlike how it seems to play out in other areas of the country.

Anyways, I'll be off SM for the most part probably as I try to spend time with my MAGA family without it turning it into a coordinated attack on me and my ideology about our climate crisis etc.

Final thoughts/7

This jury will return a verdict of Trump "Guilty as charged" on all 34 counts. It will be a fast jury. They get to deliberate likely on Tuesday of next week. It has been quite a ride. But this is a clear cut case. Great job by prosecution. Sucks to be a Trump lawyer :-)

Questions?

Defense reasonable doubt/3

Trump could have said of the first 3 payments, that was fraud by Eric and Don Jr and Weisselberg against him, he never authorized those payments and bring testimony of them or others that Trump was angry at payments made behind his back or whatnot. No such defense
