@andytiedye The camps will need roads to them, walls, guards, etc. These are things that can be blocked or destroyed.

Hey Mark Shuttleworth's bonkers interview process for jobs at Canonical made Ask a Manager!

(The letter doesn't name the company, but a commenter recognized it - as did I, while reading the letter - and the letter writer confirms in the comments.)

@histoftech Follow @ ap.brid.gy on bsky then we can follow you as @histoftech.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy from fedi.

@histoftech Post an @ to follow via the bridge?

@mirabilos @pixx FWIW F-Droid is pretty awful. The community around it os some of the worst of FOSS, includes channer and farmer types. This is reflected in the volume of wacky pointless Bible apps in the repo that had no reason to be an app.

@burnoutqueen

Rashida has the heart of a lioness. She towers above her sellout colleagues in the Democratic Party.

@seachanger @JoeQuinlan @burnoutqueen They're the real deal and so rare.

@mirabilos @pixx Uhg, that's infuriating.

"Not updated recently" should be a plus not something bad to be relegated to.

@SynAck @susankayequinn See the opening phrase of the post you replied too.

Still it's important for us to be citing clear constitutional law that can slow them down as it makes its way through appeals processes where lots of judges will still be correctly interpreting it.

@blogdiva I really like the descriptive tool of "horseshoe temperment" and how it resolves the bogus but appealing "horseshoe theory" as a trait of some garbage humans rather than fundamental political nature.

It’s interesting how the tone of the news reporting on NPR hasn’t changed one iota.

“Nonchalant” is how I would describe it.

“Today, Texas announced it is donating the land to build the first of many camps for the mass deportations.”

Ho hum. Just another normal day in America. Carry on.

@mizblueprint @DannyStaley Is there a beginners' guide to this? It'd be really useful information to have.

@pixx @mirabilos Android should be treated as a family of application interface frameworks/runtimes, not an OS. It's utter garbage as an OS.

@pixx @mirabilos Ideally it'd provide bidirectional emulation layers so "app too old", "os too new", and "os/device too old" are not possible errors to begin with.

@DannyStaley Can 401k be moved without penalty to investments that won't grow nearly as fast but with no risk of crash?

@mirabilos The web UI doesn't suffer from that part tho.

@mattmay Burning down Twitter likely did have an effect, but that was Mr Bone Saw and Putin's doing, not Elmo's. He was just their tool.

Huge pet peeve: Play Store memory holeing stuff.

No indication of "app removed by publisher" or "removed for policy violation" or even that it ever existed.

There's evidence that artists have been projecting images to trace them for thousands of years. The earliest written description of the camera obscura, an early projection device, dates back to about 500 BCE. Leonardo Da Vinci and Johannes Vermeer both likely used projection as a drawing aid.

@mpesce "Move fast and break things" is intrinsically anti-democratic.
