Dad, Web Engineer, and Cyclist, I typically post about Life, Science Fiction, Science Fact, Web Technology, Politics, and Beer. Not necessarily in that order.
Untitled Goose NameI keep seeing that “first they came for the journalists” sign, and it pisses me off so much, because when they came for muslims, immigrants, and trans people, mainstream journalists normalized it and reported it as “both sides”. Somehow it didn’t count for them until it was happening to them personally, which is *exactly* what the fucking poem was warning against in the first place.
CovidiocracyStarting today, you can order another set of free #COVID19 tests through the USPS.
This program should never have been paused, but Congress has refused to fund it any further. At least it's back for now...

David ZipperPortugal's infrastructure minister gets it:
“If we simply replace all combustion cars with electric cars, we will end up with the same kind of congestion, the same huge amount of lost time in traffic, the same unsustainable levels of road accidents, and the same struggle for public space."
“The car overwhelmed city life and it is something that must change.”
RobbJust realised that I can use :has() to lock page scrolling under modals and menus without toggling classes with JS. Handy!
