Retired software engineer, architect, program manager, and director @ the world's greatest software company. Currently enjoying luthiery as a hobby, and considering part-time teaching positions to stay active and contribute back to a field that provided me a great living. I am interested in art, literature, music, and discussions about social justice. I also like a good joke.

No lies detected in this 2020 description of Joe Rogan.

The Trump administration is setting a new norm, that wearing masks while being an armed law enforcer is normal.

Criminals will take advantage of this. It is nothing new that hardcore criminals disguise as police, but what is new is, this disguise can now be worn while being masked, and it will not look out of the ordinary.

Criminals will be able to abduct anybody anywhere while wearing police gear, guns, AND masks, and no one will be able to know if they are real or fake.

Dear Fedi friends, may I ask you a favor?

I would really appreciate it if you could boost this message. I have created a French version of my Fedi promo video - and a French landing page – that I hope can spread far and wide in the Francophone world:

Less than six months have passed  . I received XX messages from the UBUNTU community asking for Arizona night wallpaper, I remember and hope I can share it with you soon 

Es ist noch nicht einmal ein halbes Jahr vergangen  . Ich habe XX Nachrichten von der UBUNTU-Community erhalten, in denen ich um ein Hintergrundbild mit Arizona bei Nacht gebeten wurde. Ich erinnere mich! hoffe, dies bald mit Ihnen teilen zu können

My last day of work at the World Trade Center was Sept 10, 2001. I worked late, so I was going to go in late the next day. I never made it in (the planes hit in the morning). I was at 5 WTC, a 9 story building between the towers, all my coworkers evacuated

What I remember most were the missing person posters, especially plastered all over Grand Central Terminal

Now we experience it again with #ICE under #Trump

Powered by the same stupid hate and fear that powered 9/11
