I hate bios that are all about what job someone has. I’m a middle-aged nerd, for Thor’s sake! I contain multitudes!

I’m a mobile app tester in fintech. I’ve also worked on NetNewsWire and Kaleidoscope at Black Pixel.

I am opinionated about stupid software. But I don’t code, so I mostly yell at the clouds on socials when something bugs me.

I live in WA state. I like gaming with friends and rooting for the Seattle Thunderbirds. US Navy submarine veteran.

LT Have a non-techie friend looking to upgrade to a new #wifi #router (their's is 5+ years old). I'm a dumb nerd who buys too expensive #network gear, so I'm maybe the last person who should help them. Anyone have advice or suggestions? #homeNetwork

I tried the cute client. I am too old, or too boring. Definitely too something. It would be nice if the animations could be turned off, or at least reduced.

Lost my earlier post when I moved to my new name with proper spelling. Putting out another call for #pnw folks to follow. Especially people in #olywa (#olympiawa #olympiawashington). I loved using the other site to learn about what was happening locally and with #waleg, #waelex and #wawx.

Hey everyone, consider setting two-factor authentication up for your account as you settle in.

It can be found in Preferences > Account: Two-factor Auth

I love the web platform. Not only can its reach not be overstated, but the built-in accessibility is clutch. Don't know what I mean? Just casually type ⌘+ when text is too small.

Hello #hackyderm 👋

My name is Ricky. I’m nonbinary, my pronouns are they/them, and I’m mostly focusing on taking care of myself these days.

I often post about authentication technologies, revolving around the work my team at Apple is doing.

Thank you @nova for running this instance.

I tried out the Hive thingy. It’s phone app only??? I don’t do anything meaningful on my phone. All good things happen on a Mac.

Signed up for Hive (same username) even though I have no idea what it is.
