the good news is that I have finished assembling and programming my picoGUS!

the bad news is that my testbed machine will not power on with it connected

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 40 years has shifted $50 trillion from the bottom 90% to the top 1%. That’s $50 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of working Americans.

The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

As climate collapse triggers more mass migrations and refugees, there must be impact on youth serving systems (e.g., foster care, schools). Anyone writing on this? Or anyone have good recommendations on things to read specific to youth systems and climate? https://www.npr.org/2023/02/28/1160169508/one-uprooted-life-at-a-time-climate-change-drives-an-american-migration #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency #law

Deleted facebook and instagram a few weeks ago, twitter a few months ago, and lemme tell yaaaaa... the improvements in my mental and emotional health have been & continue to be *startling*.

It's a delight to not have my brain caught in a corporate/fascist vice grip anymore.

Yep, because “woke AI” was the problem.

Do not use this asshole’s social network. Do not buy this asshole’s cars. Lobby the EU to regulate the absolute shit out of this asshole’s businesses. Do not let your governments give this asshole even one cent of your taxes.

It’s been through hell and high water with me, but I still consult this weathered wildebeest frequently.

Hard to believe I’ve used emacs for this freaking long but it’s still the first package I install on a new server.

as the most recent LastPass hack reminded everyone, passwords can be phished, and an attacker who has otherwise compromised your computer can steal whatever credentials the computer itself has access to. if your computer gets compromised you are definitely in deep shit no matter what, and there are still plenty of ways for an attacker in that position to do bad stuff, but at least separating out the credentials so they can't be copied will make it easier to recover.

now would be an excellent time for people who have ssh set up to use passwords or keys in plain files, to set up some hardware-based keys (you generally want at least two Yubikeys or similar, in case something happens to one of them)

A French train coming from Lyon arrived 3 hours late, at 1:40AM, in Geneva on Sunday night.

Having missed all connections, a train driver of the Swiss rail company, asked all 80 stranded passengers where they needed to go, took an unused train, specifying that at that time during the night it was easy, and dropped them off at various stations across Lake Leman. Like a taxi, but on rails.

It's not for nothing that people love the Swiss railways 🇨🇭🚞
