Do I NEED an oilskin duster and an outback hat? Of course not. But I do own both now just in case I'm ever called to a gunfight or something...

Governor Pritzker, please call off your state troopers!

You said you would stand between ICE and the people of Illinois. This is not how you do that. These officers should be defending peaceful protestors, not ICE.

Troopers just violently attacked protesters, tackled several, several arrests, shoving activists and press with batons.

The hack against software giant Red Hat is part of a larger campaign that is targeting AWS cloud accounts.

A group named the Crimson Collective is using compromised IAM accounts to access and pilfer corporate AWS environments.

Nintendo has allegedly been breached by notorious hacker group Crimson Collective.

It's unclear how accurate this is (per article) or what the potential damage could be.

Listen, if people don’t like this they have a choice. Just like with Disney and Twitter. There is power in how one acts not reacts to such a thing, should it occur. What you have control of and what YOU do is what matters.

When using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, don't just make text bigger and bolder to make it a heading. That will work for sighted users, but screen reader users will miss that and just hear it as normal paragraph text. Use actual heading styles, like level 1 through 6.

a guide to using Mastodon
1) install Mastodon
2) choose your federated server-pimple fooblotron
3) try to post. did you post? who can say
4) some guy calls you an asshole
5) leave Mastodon in frustration

It really makes me wonder what the value proposition of ATProto even is, if federation is more fragmented than Mastodon in practice, harder to set up than Mastodon, and if Bluesky the company is going to run the main instance as unprofessionally as a Mastodon instance owner on a power trip.

No social media space since the invention of the smart phone is a haven. They're labs for commerce. Go hang out in your friend's shitty apartment.

If you are new to IT, I would ask you to be on the lookout for someone willing to teach you esoterics.

Because I am now in the senior principal position. And I am begging anyone to learn what I know, because I am the only one that does.

I previously tried to teach someone but they washed-out.
