iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Coworker and I were discussing telephone etiquette, like proper greeting, identifying yourself, and the secret code-phrase that tells your partner to grab their go-bag and leave town. Then we both remembered this bit from Modern Family. youtu.be/yfyxkIXWbW4

The Pentagon is notifying millions of current and former U.S. military servicemembers and staff that hackers stole their *unencrypted* personal information during a months-long data breach. The agency that had the breach also handles ID and login/credential access to U.S. military systems and bases.

I feel dumb even just having to say this but the reason passports are mailed out in plain regular envelopes is that so that people do not attempt to steal easily recognizable passports in the mail. bsky.app/profile/carn...

Al music is now very, very good. You just don't know yet because all Al music circulating today is from ~2-3 generations ago.

One, this hilariously outs who all got the talking points in advance and how blatantly they parrot those. Two, Schmitt really thought today he'd launch himself to the VP nomination and with that a decent shot at the presidency down the line. Instead this is the only thing he'll be remembered for.

Watched #Neagley over the weekend. Good acting, good production quality; but the writing was a hot mess. Bad dialogue, plot holes, lots of telling versus showing, and a story that gets too perfectly wrapped up in the end, so there's nothing to think about if season 2 comes out.

My favorite part is how people will immediately recognize the reasons for "$50" vs "$3,596.49." The first is the co-pay the patient believed; the second is because the doctor lied about insurance coverage while making them sign a giant legalese form that waived it and consented to the billing.

The giant sidewalk stickers telling kids they're not allowed to bike on the sidewalks at 50th and France is depressing given the area has no bike lanes. It's also intriguing because the stickers appear to have been paid for by Edina but are also all over the Minneapolis side of France Ave.
