@mattly hahaha I'm sorry, but that's one of the worst arguments I've seen in a long time. Here, lemme fix it for ya:

> Here’s the thing about this “taxes” initiative that the IRS is enforcing: I never signed up to be part of a ‘tax base’.

/FIN

@mattly I can accept that that would be your initial reaction, but like you said yourself "I know this is a dumb petulant Persistent Drive for Autonomy thing". Like others have said, you can retain your autonomy by deleting your account, and maybe that's what's best for you. But if you don't want to be told what to do, then... I dunno man, all the options boil down to "move somewhere where you don't have to pay taxes, don't have to get vaccinated, don't have to abide by anyone else's rules."

@mattly I think you're trying to see it that way. It's a no brainer if you come from a "let's make sure things are secure because getting hacked is at least inconvenient if not personally legally perilous" POV. If you can refute mandatory 2FA as an analogy to vaccines, I'd love to hear it. Pfizer & Moderna made a fuckton, did we take anyone seriously that argued their vaccines were bad because they made money?

@mattly I'm sorry you experienced burnout from bork, but the community (for better or worse) deemed it mission critical by adopting/favoring it. GH is just recognizing what's already there. Make no mistakes, attackers are looking for people suffering from or have previously suffered from burnout, so you're a bigger target than you may have realized.

@mattly @kornel you are already part of the supply chain because you already have a commit in a large, trusted project. It may not be a lot, but you have a non-zero amount of cred which could be exploited.

@mattly The stakes are higher now after incidents like xz; we all need to do what we can to support a safe environment. I feel like there's an analogy to vaccines here that may be worth considering: a relatively minor thing for the greater good.

@mattly you really are Mr. Edge Case. I'm sorry you have to be dealing with that during a time of grieving.

@mattly haha you are not wrong. My best BT experience is on Android and even then it's not great. I wish it were as good as Apple's.

@mattly hmm probably don't want that. I avoid BT on Linux like the plague.

"Connect to up to 3 devices and easily switch between them with the touch of a button" I'll have to give this a try and figure out video.

@mattly hmm, OK, I can do some searching. Thanks! I remember you mentioning QMK before.

@mattly speaking of KVMs, do you know of a cross-platfform software based one? I may have to work to do some of my work on Windows soon 😭 I think my Logitech kb will switch but would want v & m too.

@mattly oh for sure. I don't think I would have bought one on my own; $company bought it.

@mattly I love my LG DualUp https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-28mq780-b-dualup-monitor

@mattly ooh, I love this! Where is your wezterm config? Mine is super basic as of now: https://github.com/jc00ke/dotfiles/blob/51acb0179c086b2bda381ffb8c073584f7865fdb/.wezterm.lua

@mattly here's some non-logo social proof https://changelog.com/podcast/579

I recently started using atuin and it seems like a nice product.

@mattly https://www.moderncsv.com/ ? I've used https://www.tadviewer.com/ before but I don't think it does the structural changing you want.

@mattly drain the swamp! 😬

@mattly she was very clear on the conversation being recorded and then proceeded to straight up lie ("You have downgraded your plan." -- "No I haven't. I've not clicked any button to downgrade, let that be crystal clear for the recording.") I told her I didn't want to give my business to a company that treated their employees this way and she said "Cool, but that won't get me my job back."

@mattly I've never experienced it, but now that I have, I really do not want to ever give them my business again.
