I’m really fucking hate Microsoft right now. Windows 11 couldn’t understand my request for a Windows Update Restart on Sept 28, so it restarted today instead. Thus, losing an entire three weeks of research work I had opened. Thanks, Microsoft! #tech

I'm backing up an Email Messages from one of the top three major mail providers. I'm finding some of the messages are corrupted or unreadable. This account has over 80K messages from over 15+ years of use. But it seems like the storage backing account may had issues... Anyone else seen this? #backup

I think my Raspberry Pi is a little confused.... #uptime

I was reviewing some old code that I wrote (checks date) - 10 years ago, today!! (Nearly down to the hour, about 30 minutes from before the commit time) I found this funny comment. How time has changed since.
View of SCSS File with a code comment of, "// F****** INTERNET EXPLORER!!!!". Follow by an import declaration for a SCSS file named IE6 with the comment "// I Hate You MOST OF ALL!!!"
Other SCSS imports are listed but not important to illustrate the point.

Refurbishing my old Antec NSK6500 case for a new build. Cases aren’t built like this anymore, case alone weights as much as my new computer #it #pcbuilds

It’s ironically that a technologist says you need to live life, not through a screen. Get outside and see something different.

“We’ve arranged a society on science and technology in which nobody understands anything about science and technology, and this combustible mixture of ignorance and power sooner or later is going to blow up in our faces. I mean, who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don’t know anything about it? Science is more than a body of knowledge, it’s a way of thinking. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions to interrogate those who tell us something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we’re up for grabs for the next charlatan political or religious leader who comes ambling along. It’s a thing that Jefferson lay great stress on. It wasn’t enough, he said, to enshrine some rights in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, the people had to be educated and they have to practice their skepticism and their education. Otherwise, we don’t run the government, the government runs us.” —Carl Sagan

On the heels of autism awareness month, one last reminder that vaccines DO NOT cause autism. Vaccines SAVE countless lives & protect infants, elderly & immunocompromised. Those of us w/ access to life-saving vaccines are the privileged. This demo nails the benefits of vaccination- Watch 👀

As more time passes since that “idiot” brought twitter, more it breaks. Maybe laying off 2/3 of the company was a mistake.

So, 23andMe declared Bankruptcy. Now all their PII (Personal ID Info) and genetic data will probably be sold to the highest bidder. Do I hear health insurance companies beating down that door? arstechnica.com/science/2025...

Anyone who thinks Instagram Reels is a suitable alternative to TikTok has never used either platform. What type of video platform doesn't have video controls other than play/pause?

The greatest trick that Corporate America ever pulled was convincing the low paid employees to look out for the company’s bottom line.

Is it really a skeleton crew, even though there’s enough staff to fill all the positions? Or is it capitalism cost cutting at it best?
