@jwz happy birthday, dna lounge! ive had many fun experiences there over the years

go to the cloud they said
itll be fine they said

@jschauma ww2, ibm, vw, audi, bmw - they all built shit for the nazis. its gonna be the same now, but it'll be google, microsoft, facebook, linkedin...

but now we have ample utilities to remember exactly who, and who did what, and where they went, etc

come, internet
sit by the fire.
tell me a story

@mttaggart apparently neither does ANYBODY on bluesky.

just for clarity's sake - i asked this same exact question on bluesky at the same time.

not one like, not one repost, not one reply. 100% completely ignored.

_CLEARLY_ the better converations are happening here.

@mttaggart i get the imrpession that unless youre a celeb of some kind, brought tens of thousands of followers with you from another platform, or only talk about bluesky or politics, you're just going to get overlooked.

@mttaggart the chief reason those 'cool kids' showed up in the first place was because bsky was invite only. you were only a cool kid if you ran the gauntlet to get an invite and were let in. the moment the invite only part fell off, that luster vanished overnight, and now since anybody could join, the people who worry their cool kid card was revoked are now desperately trying to keep it cool

but i dont think its working.

@da_667 and meals, if memory serves!

if your company outsources to infosys, you should be aware of whats happening under the hood

oh, and its free
so.

i guess your weekend is sorted :D

come play deathmatch with me! I'll be watching to see if @ridge sets up a server

tomorrow, november 16th, is half-life 2's 20th birthday!
valve has pushed an update, for anyone interested in replaying it with all the new bells and whistles!

this could possibly be the prelude to brad pitts cult in the movie, so, i think we're currently in prequel territory?

@Gargron collapsed notifications! ocr text from pics for alt text! so good!

@patrickcmiller how are there still people who run ivanti?

@viq @mattly because it presumes that youre doing something youre trying to hide, and in corporate land, thats usually real bad. there are exceptions, though, like infosec and working a ransomware incident, or comms with a lawyer
