I ended up here by working in tech to pay off my student loans. Mostly sysadmin and infosec info on this account. I think I need multiple accounts for all the content I want to explore.

Trying to keep SN ratio high w/o becoming a reply guy. Or maybe this is like my Sent Mail folder so I remember things...

And, unremarkable toots will autodelete.

Jello Biafra suffers hemorrhagic stroke all appearances canceled

On Saturday, March 7th Jello Biafra suffered a hemorrhagic stroke caused by high blood pressure. Jello Biafra had this to say:”I hopped out of my bed because I needed to pee, and my left leg just collapsed under me and I fell to the floor. I couldn’t even break the fall with my left arm because it wasn’t working either

I hate unpredictable automation. I had a spreadsheet with straight quotes used for MEASUREMENTS and depending on the spreadsheet's data entry history they are now sometimes fucking "smart" curly quotes. 😠

Unintended automation is worse than no automation.

Here's a BBC summary,

Carney says the old world order 'is not coming back' in Davos speech

Canada's prime minister said powerful countries are using economic weapons to pursue their interests, while affirming support for Greenland and Nato.

Remember when your teachers told you to use primary sources? This speech is a turning point in present history. The dude isn't just the current Prime Minister of Canada, he was the head of the Bank of England so has intl experience and perspective. #history #empire #imperialism

It's long, but well worth it if you want to understand how the world has changed. His speech starts around 9:45 with a preamble in French then at 11:15 with the main speech in English. So, get a cup of coffee, brew some tea, or pour out a favorite beverage and watch some history.
