@bruienne I wonder if you drove through my home town of Kalkaska. Northern MI is usually drop-dead amazing in August.

@bynkii I'm sorry I missed your MacAdmins presentation in-person but have just watched it on YouTube. Thank you for a very very good presentation. I will be using some of your points and language as I work with our InfoSec and Cyber team to modernize our IT stack. Thank you, thank you. https://youtu.be/9uKL1n-f3Ww

Every day I become more convinced that Elon buying Twitter is like when AOL bought Time-Warner. It will likely end in a similar fashion.

Twitter is no longer the town square. Twitter now has a wall around the square. Only members can view the speakers in the square. Government agencies should stop using Twitter since it is not open to the general public.

Twitter: I follow news and political giants, but all I see are bad people and arguments
Bluesky: I follow 10% of my old friends who were able to get out of twitter in time and sometimes it works
Threads: I follow my friends but I can’t see them through the algorithm of businesses
Mastodon: oh look a beekeeper in the Netherlands
