It's Saturday, February 10, 2024, and Israel is still doing genocide.

@clacke @yogthos that was so fucking infuriating. What we do to homeless people in this country is horrific.

@peterbrown @clacke @yogthos Right? The unhoused can't easily replace shit like that. You've literally destroyed their home.

This is how most cities in the US "deal" with homeless folks. It's horrific and immoral and wrong.

@yogthos I love how volunteers cleared out “trash.”

My dude, that was someone’s home furnishings. Fucking assholes.

@tolmasky @thomasfuchs Segway is actually still very much around and a big player in the electric scooter space

PSA: If you live in America, your insurance company is required to provide covid vaccines through in-network providers for free. If they try to charge you, they're literally breaking the law.

@VeroniqueB99 @aral What I absolutely hate about fireworks is that we MAKE them loud. They don't have to be. https://soundproofpanda.com/silent-fireworks/

@VeroniqueB99 @aral I have a jackass neighbor that sets them off all summer. In the street. In front of our house.

They’re not even legal here. Such an asshole.

Bit of a long shot, but... anyone here looking for a seasoned JavaScript developer?

@aral after hearing about your whole mortgage saga, I think you may have gotten hit worse than me. But I’m just so utterly sick of this system.

Anybody else feeling completely beaten down by the relentless soul sucking crush of capitalism today, or is it just me?

@aral right!? Absurd

@hbuchel Literally got an email from someone yesterday raving about how my education business must be in a slump because "people can just learn from AI now."

"AI, it's like StackOverflow, but you get wrong answers faster! ™"

@writerethink @timnitGebru Brigham and Women’s goes a step further. Masks not require but if YOU choose to wear one you have to put on one of their shitty surgicals.

@westerling @writerethink @timnitGebru I refused to do so. I have a large face and don't want to compromise the seal of my mask.

I was refused service as a result. Currently looking for a new doctor.

@heydon what of you just think the UI is clunky and makes it hard for people to join/use?

@aral I know in the US self-employed folks sometimes run into this, but... "you run a nonprofit so fuck off" is a new level of capitalist fuckery to me!

@aral what the actual fuck
