I just want people outside of Minneapolis to watch this and imagine listening to that noise over you literally all the time

laying candles at a vigil for alex pettri in loring park after he was shot by ICE today in minneapolis under the noisy state patrol helicopter that has been a constant presence

If ICE is monitoring mobile phone traffic, does that mean they're also monitoring Web requests? I feel like this could be used to make presumably homophobic ICE agents view whatever websites you want. So, what I'm saying is you should watch gay porn during protests.

More than other factor, excessive advertising kills my interest in a product or service. If I'm paying a subscription to an app I don't want them to beg for more money from me every time I open the app. If I buy a chair, I don't need to be asked to buy more chairs every week. It's so draining.

Anyone know where to get more info on current man-o-sphere talking points? I'm tired of people bringing up unhinged things that are obviously wrong but are so out of left field to me that I just spend the rest of the conversation processing what they just said.

I am so tired of companies attempting to give me permission to like stuff. From now on every time I see "for [gender]" associated with a product because of a slight cosmetic difference, I will immediately look for an alternative.

AI in the software development world is more like the transition from punch cards to actually keying in code on a keyboard than anything else. The job will change, some new skills will be needed, but it still will require training and skill.

Wild how Shadowrun today feels like an optimistic alternate future. Native Americans gain independence from the U.S. government? A benevolent dragon becomes the president and governs by suicide? People still communicate primarily through message boards? Sign me the fuck up.

There should be something similar to PTO for days when you can answer simple questions and deal with emergencies but you know that trying to do your normal day to day work will just be something both your and your employer regret.

You are up to date.
