@MichaelCrider Somebody actually followed that link to my Mastodon account and made a brand new one, just to yell at me for putting it where the old site's logo is on my PCWorld profile.
They were mad that they couldn't easily pester a stranger for writing something they didn't like.
It was oddly gratifying.

If your site uses WordPress as a backend, there are probably a bunch of fields on your profile page with dedicated social links.
You can just put in your BlueSky or Mastodon link instead of, say, some oligarch dragon's personal hate treehouse. It'll go here instead.

There are rumors floating around of both Chrome getting an Android-powered reboot, and Google trying yet another laptop design. The second point is what interests me, because they've tried to build a mass market laptop four, count 'em, FOUR times, and each one has failed.

Something I got paid to do this morning.
The country's going to shit and a lot of people will suffer very soon, but for the time being I'm glad I can at least get a little joy out of my job.
