@briankrebs @pthenq1 definitely that was my thought when I read that news

I’m sure the -2.8% GDP growth forecast for 1Q25 is nothing to be worried about, particularly since the forecast was +2% a month ago

Hold on to your 401ks.

Who is Gale and why is the weather app telling me to watch for her?

😞

Still looks like the Gulf of Mexico

So long, Skype.

I think I've suspended ~70 of these crazy "internet chick" DM spammers over the past 40 hours.

After news of ad supported Word and Excel, I am wondering how long it’ll be before we have ads on windows desktop backgrounds…

I just finished up my #onlyfelines photo shoot

@feld I’ve seen a bunch of consternation lately about the USG going after signal. Is there something specific driving that?

@feld @Viss I mean, I remember getting into the SP500 when it was under $400. I doubt we go all the way back to 2017, which woulkd be about a 60% drop from today

VIXY has been a on a wild ride today. I'm out till it settles down a bit. I'll get back in at $41 if anyone wants to follow along at home

@Viss I think we are headed into a recession and we have a long, long way left to fall:

It’s tulip season!

I am so so so shocked that another crypto company was jackpotted by baddies. I mean, really shocked. Who could have guessed that would happen?

Also, a reminder that running your favorite fediverse services is not free and most are supported through donations. This is a time of high concern about corporate social media, so please if you can and they accept it, support your instances financially to ensure this place continues to thrive.

Reminder for those using the iOS Patreon app to support their creators: Apple is now taking a 30% cut for new donations through the app, plus whatever Patreon takes. Consider alternate donation methods (including direct to the Patreon website rather than the Apple mobile app).

I’ve found, btw, that ko-fi has the best deal for creators - for a $72 annual fee, they do not take any cut of donations.

@feld @risottobias yeah. I just sent this link earlier but it is the current map of pending lawsuits - I would estimate that it’s at about 100 and growing significantly by the day. The Trump admin is going to have to replace all the people they fired with lawyers to manage their case load.

@risottobias This is going to take months to sort out in court, and there's going to be an incredible amount of procedural hoopla we are going to learn about.

@pdo I thought there would be flying cars and a LOT more neon signs...
