Accurate and not sane-washing. Perfect headline, no notes.

At first I did not believe this headline was real. But it’s one of the most honest I’ve seen anywhere in legacy media in 25 years.

White House says 'substantial' layoffs of federal workers have begun, with few details

The Trump administration says it has started the process of issuing reduction-in-force notices to federal employees. It's not clear how many agencies are affected or how many people.

Sadly I can't be there either (camping with the Scouts) but I think your "Oatmeal Socialist" stickers are epic!

This reminds me of how HDRadio technology has floundered. Maybe for not exactly the same reasons but they do share the problem of restricting the technology too much and making it too expensive.

Broadcasters bungled free antenna TV. Now they want a bailout?

The FCC will consider rules to phase out ATSC 1.0 and mandate ATSC 3.0 adoption, but its use of DRM has alienated pretty much everyone.

Am I missing something or has Trump not really gone after any non-black women? Even AOC is Latina and not strictly caucasian.

And once more for the people in the back, #trump and #mikejohnson #speakerofthehouse are both still covering up for his #pedophile buddies #epstein and #maxwell.

This is what we need the internet to move toward. Not necessarily the AltStore and Mastodon but the idea. How when you subscribe to an app's account in one service, it's connected to the actual store and its account on AltStore. One account everywhere.

BlueSky and Apple should be paying attention.

Is it just me or is announcing that you are starting a undercover operation kinda defeating the whole point of it being "under cover"?

Reminds me of the sign on the highway exit for the NSA offices.

Will Oremus @willoremus.com · 3d

Obviously not the main point here, but it's interesting how this is framed as content rather than policy.

"BREAKING" is typically what journalists or influencers say when they have a big story -- not what government officials say when they launch "undercover" operations

Summer’s going fast–
Nights growing colder
Children growing up —

Experience slips away…
