Almost missed my flight out of London the other day to take this photo of a Heathrow airport gate running low on memory.

Bonus: unlocked Windows workstation.

Here's a great piece by
@kendrawrites on bias in #COVID reporting.

"Outlets have amplified voices that helped create a narrative that not only pathologizes those who remain cautious about the disease, but also fail to adequately convey the risks associated with Covid such that many people are unwittingly taking on potentially lifelong risks.

In the process, we’ve failed at our field’s core tenets — to hold power to account and to follow the evidence. "

I finally got enough confidence to post a video of me playing #bass. January of this year, at age 50, I decided to start learning. I'm not much to watch, but this is halfway decent. Obviously the bass is pretty loud in the mix, because I'm sharing it the way I hear it. I have a long way to go.

Few days ago I've setup a non-federating video platform on https://u.fail for some fun and adorable content to create some smiles on faces.. 😺

I want to keep it ad-free and everyone can upload to 512M video's and 1GB for 'pro' (A little paid tier to pay for it all)

No account needed to browse some vid's and suggestions are welcome

@Adrenochrome

if we’ve brought back global pandemics, titanic disasters, railroad strikes, a King of England and Russian coups, we should also get to bring back the parts of the 20th century where they had cocaine in the soda and a minimum wage earner could buy a family home

angry people feeling an obsessive need to look at every inch of my body to decide if some small flaw in my waist proportions or jawline warrants demanding to inspect my ID or genitals does not feel particularly safe to me

How to Keep Leeches As Pets

When writing software, enable people to change their usernames.

You don’t know who might make their username based on their real name, then realize they need to change their real name, and are now stuck with a username based on their dead name.

Asking for a friend.

Imagine if the fate of the planet captivated the world as much as the fate of one deep sea submersible.

Mathematician, computer scientist, and WWII code breaker Alan Turing, who established the theoretical foundation for just about every modern computing device, was born #OTD in 1912. His work helped make it possible for you to read this.

The British government prosecuted him for being gay, a monstrous act that eventually led to Turing’s death by suicide. Then they waited 50 years before issuing a pardon.
