If you email me without me asking, and especially if you keep doing that, i’ll block you out of principle and will surely never ever buy from you. 133
Chris Wiegman @chriswiegman.com · 29/09/2026The weather here is actually perfect this morning. If I have to leave Chicago at my favorite time of year, I’ll take this. 011

The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map. 9352173196

Reposted by Chris WiegmanAnil Dash @anildash.com · 27/09/2026It’s a very minor point amongst the far greater injustices of the situation, but the Cornell case has also just reminded me how much all of society seems to have just accepted the fact that big tech won’t allow people to use the word “rape”.

Chris Wiegman @chriswiegman.com · 26/09/2026I confess I do miss my old Twitter account (not X). That really was a great community for what I do. A few current projects are showing me how many people I’ve lost touch with since it ended. 250

Chris Wiegman @chriswiegman.com · 25/09/2026I live in Chicago, and I still see this shit as I use Apple’s Private Relay (genuinely a good privacy option for my threat model) which randomizes my IP.

Chris Wiegman @chriswiegman.com · 17/09/2026Last Friday I switched from Xfinity to Astound (both broadband as this building doesn’t get fiber). I switched because Google Meet (work’s platform) on Xfinity had been all-but unusable these past 2-3 months. It’s worked perfectly (Knock on wood). I’m honestly surprised at how much it’s improved. 000
Chris Wiegman @chriswiegman.com · 17/09/2026If I’m grateful for anything it’s that I’ve spent most of my adult life trying to avoid driving. Even at current US gas prices we only spend $20-30/month for our car. I do feel for the many, many people I know who have to do long car commutes. 030
Chris Wiegman @chriswiegman.com · 17/09/2026This morning the weather, for the first time this year, really feels like winter (not cold, but the heat isn’t on and it’s dark and wet outside). I’m really loving it. 100
