Former #ITProfessional still following tech topics; if my ‘helpful’ replies are not don’t hesitate to say so - old habits are hard to break. 
In life I'm #cooking, doing #yardwork and #gardening, #biking, and still expending effort noodling around #software far too much.

Yo @ProPublica, I’ve been watching what you do here while your “please donate again” emails continue to pile up. Resist the #enshittification path and “betrayals of the public trust by …. other institutions” that is part of your mission statement

I know it is a little thing but I wish more people would correctly set the language for their Mastodon posts. It'd help other users automatically filter out posts they can't read and aren't interested in.

Eisenhower warned about the Military Industrial Complex 65 years ago but did we listen? Follow the money: who gets this $200B and who pays it? The grift continues while enhancing the distraction - a double dividend

@jik and the pattern now seems to be Provider: But of course when we add some new category we will auto subscribe you (so their trackers will get refreshed both as most read that spam and when they login to unsubscribe all again.) Every interaction counts as en{g,r}agement

@samlitzinger I can think of a few techbros and one president who could afford that. Let see ‘em pitch in if they truly believe
