“Arraignments of #Giuliani & 10 other allies of #Trump were underway on Tues in #Arizona criminal case that charges them with trying to keep Trump in power after he lost pres election.

A total of 50 people — incl Trump — now face charges related to election interference in four states. A number of Trump allies have already pleaded guilty or reached cooperation agreements in cases in Georgia and Michigan.”

drums solos are like sushi and Shakespeare in the park because when they're bad they're revolting, but when they're great they're spiritually transformative

Out of all the lies I tell, “just kidding” is still my favorite.

When I talk about digital privacy, there is always some smug genius who shrugs and tells me, "Who cares? We all know we don't have any privacy anyway." Nothing could be more wrong. Convincing you that the fight is already over to the way people in power get you to stop resisting.

Neil Gaiman wrote: "Everything good that happened in my writing career happened because someone, normally another writer, helped me. Suggested me for something, put in a good word, and so on. The idea was always that you help others and they help others in their turn. It's not a win or lose game."

I'm not Gaiman, and probably neither are you (unless you are, in which case hi, Neil.)

But this is true for me and true for most of us.

I'll take "Things I Absolutely Do Not Want My Phone to Do EVER" for $200, Ken.

(And just to be clear, the part I don't want my phone to do is "AI listens to my calls" because PRIVACY IS STILL A THING and I don't need Google or anybody else monitoring every single goddamn phone call I might happen to make. FUCK THAT.)

The aurora comes to Alabama. The Alaurora.

Green and purple streaks illuminate the sky in what appears to be vertical lines across the sky. A woman with long red hair faces the horizon. Just to the left of the woman, a farmhouse is lit brightly (due to the long exposure of the photo).
Red streaks of light seem to burst through the night sky. Stars can be seen through the lights, and the eave of a house is at the lower left corner of the shot.
An Aurora seen over trees. The upper left of the shot is a deep red, and the light changes to a pink and then (I think) a purple as the light extends down and right.

Do I know any tech writers who would be interested doing some contract work? (The specific project I have in mind is the user guide / reference manual for OmniGraffle 8.)

Feel free to reach out privately, here or via email (kc@omnigroup.com).

In a historic Indigenous victory in BC, nearly half a million hectares of Crown land, including more than 200 islands of the Haida Gwaii archipelago, have been returned to the Haida Nation. #ShareGoodNewsToo https://fixthenews.com/r/282a5b72?m=d62c57a4-125a-4b9d-b04d-bdfd23b8627c

Crossing the Street Shouldn't Be Deadly (but it is)

Crossing the street should be safe, convenient, and easy, but it isn't. And that's because in the US and Canada, the roads are designed for exactly one purpose: to move lots of cars as quickly as possible.

Just learned that the British call a bidet a ‘bum gun’ and now that’s what I call it as well.

Noem constantly whines about "fake news." Unsurprisingly, as soon as she gets caught writing fake news, she refuses to be held accountable. Perhaps she should stick to recounting stories that she has experience with, like slaying animals that displease her.

It's past time to quit Chrome & support @Firefox. I'll explain why. In other news: US & UK extend warrantless spying; telecoms fined for location data; a shady AI data grab; a superb UK IoT security law; CISA gets proactive; health data breaches; more!
