San Franciscan hacker who found himself stuck in Istanbul for 10 years. Kind of a percussionist, kind of a nomad.

I love bicycles, percussion, wandering around aimlessly and puppies.

I’m burnt out on politics and I really really hate beets. Fuck beets.
$1 buys 38 Turkish Lira today.

Gold will skyrocket in about 6 hours.

$1 will buy 100 Turkish Lira by the end of the week

#NATO leaders are still moronic enough to believe that #turkey, #hungary, #slovakia and #usa are still members. This delusion will cause Europe’s death.

Is it at all surprising that a convicted felon would ignore a judge's order?

If trump is going to take funding from our states then we need to stop funding trump.

Don’t file your taxes next month. File for an extension. Increase your federal withholdings on your paychecks.

Make him regret gutting the IRS.

Space is a scam which exists to transfer wealth from the taxpayers to Musk and the military industrial complex.

We need food security, housing security and healthcare not billionaires nazis playing spacethcoon with our hard earned tax dollars.

In a movie ending, he flees the Country and is heading for Russia. But, poor maintenance on the plane causes it to crash in the middle of The Gulf of Zelensky.

The internet would be a much better place if all russian IP space were null routed by network operators and all russian companies were banmed from hosting or doing business in western countries.

Building an #ebike and I've got a question for more experienced #bafang enthusiasts. What do you think of a 36:11-51 (12-speed) drive train? I'm kinda fatty mc fat-fat and need that extra torque. Any concerns with a cassette that wide?

The worst thing about Netflix ruining TV by turning everything into a 8-episode miniseries is there aren’t enough eoisodes to justify a yearly Musical episode in comedy series.

Prediction: in the next 4 years Musk will fabricate an impending Extinction Level Event like a fake asteroid to justify stealing a couple trillion dollars from world taxpayers so he can play spaceman.

A conference for conference people is even more meta than a DevRel conference!

Are there any drinkups near Grand Place or Stalingrad tonight?

(Do people still use the term, drinkup?)

Using Lime for #fosdem commuting has been lovely.

(Can’t say the same for Google Maps, however)

It appears there are no #oss forks of Packer (yet).

I'm supposed to be working today. *unbreaks something and commits to git*

OK. Anybody in town for #fosdem or #cfgmgmtcamp want to go to the comic museum?

What else does one do in Brussels but hop on an hour and a half train to go smoke weed in Breda for 2 hours.

If you change the name of something like the Gulf of Mexico, everybody will use the new name.

Just ask anybody on Twitter or in Turkey.
