Are we sure they aren't AI?

You guys rule!

Great artist!

Awesome news! Thanks for all the work!

The actor, Edward Norton, calls for a General Strike!

"What they are doing in Minnesota with the strike needs to expand. We should be talking about a national General and Economic Strike."

Engaging in mental gymnastics to justify what's convenient but unevidenced, unjust but personally beneficial, 'rewires your neural map' in ways that degrade your overall ability to understand and analyze the world around you, which is a precondition for intelligence and creativity.

This is very nice.

Do you think Trump did it for any reason other than posturing or financial gain (or again posturing as having made financial gain)?

Pre-mustache Tony Iommi.

And the bridge section in Electric Funeral, very jazzy. One of the best rhythm sections in popular rock music IMO.

He's just thinking deeply.

Hey, Henry Rollins put a lot of money and care into his HiFi system so he can have a pure reproduction of his Chondritic Sound tapes.

With surveillance tech like Flock and features like Ring's facial recognition they're implementing, the world is moving toward a future where we won't even need to be online to be tracked and monitored by government and technology companies.

May they invest heavily, so the music world (not the business that poses as part of it) can watch them crash horribly and hopefully never recover. 🤞

Just vote for me and I'll fix everything. 😉

Time to prepare myself for all the huge life improving UI changes... 😏

Did you know, GrapheneOS will have an opt-in built-in network location feature in the near future.

We have an experimental implementation which we're testing already. It will not be enabled by default for privacy reasons.

It will have support for choosing between multiple services.

Leave @ryangrim.bsky.social alone! He's a very decent human being.

Amazon? WalMart?

Excited to see what this looks like.

There are more and more stories coming out lately of adtech and data collection worst case scenarios coming true. Moving towards having safer tech eco-systems is exactly why I'm here.

He's closer to having an OK anecdote to express how stupid GDP is as a measure of value and long-term health of an economy. Maybe they economists produce the poo themselves and pay each other for the the others poo.

Cheap / common American beer in the states is almost religiously served cold as possible. I understand the function of "ice cold" watery beer in hotter climates, but more broadly I think the flavor of those beers is a large influence on the zeal that can be seen for very cold temps.

Didn't know Bluesky had incorporated ads yet.

anyone who thinks the way to head off the tide of fascism is by limiting the range of political choices to either fascists or pro business neoliberal technocrats is dooming us to fascism. David Graeber.

One of the most important political messages on the internet.

It's a thing. It's poorly defined or regulated, the data is handed over at high rates, and the system has been exploited by hackers.
