This is terrible injustice. Banned from piloting an aircraft for life because of 'female hysteria’.

Fact:
27% of Pilots have misrepresented their medical history to the FAA. 46% admitted to seeking “informal” medical care, and 56% reported healthcare avoidance.

The FAA is in Crisis.

I started watching Servant of the People (https://www.thetvdb.com/series/servant-of-the-people) in part in a way to try and show my support for something Ukrainian in a country run by the very people this show campaigns against.

It's on #Netflix and I highly recommend helping me getting it to #1 recommendation by watching it.

A new version of Cyd is out today!

The biggest change is your local Cyd archive now includes images, videos, replies, and quote tweets. Re-import your X archive into Cyd to get all of this stuff.

You'll want it if you plan on using an upcoming feature: to migrate your tweets into Mastodon and/or Bluesky.

Just once it’d be nice to not get tucked by a company. #whitedwarf subscription autorenewed with no notice. Somehow they figured out how to use #paypal which means I have no protection. Reached out to them and got the fuck your fine print enjoy your subscription.

#darkux is bullshit. I will now get a monthly reminder for a year why I’ll never spend a dime with #gamesworkshop ever again.

I'm becoming a #computerconspiracy theorist in my old age or something. I swear. #Microsoft Remote Desktop software on #macos just forces an update every day. I use it sparingly for tasks at work, and there is an interruption every time I launch it (daily to weekly) about an update. When I was doing same role on a #Windows laptop thiis doesn't happen, updates were once in a blue moon, but on #MacOS the experience is negative. Interrupting update notification, required interaction

Have you had that "Upcoming price change for your Microsoft 365 subscription" email yet? They want to charge you an extra 50%ish for AI features, and they do *not* make it easy to find the way to turn it off. It took me minutes of searching - this is a particularly evil dark pattern.

"Switch plan" just lets you pick between annual and monthly billing. You want "Turn off recurring billing" and then "Current subscription without AI".

You're welcome. Please boost for others.
