I have never seen a more appropriate use of the phrase, "it's not a bug it's a feature."
The image contains a screenshot from the website Bleeping Computer with the headline Microsoft fixes bug that removed copilot buttons in Outlook.

Talk about taking the scenic route to get from Florida to California. But seriously, well done Integrity and NASA.

Hot take. I think the same people that used to argue in favor of Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism are the same folks opposed to using AI for things.

If we can say happy belated birthday, we should also be able to say good belated morning.

@proton.me This is how you get me to stop using your product. This in Proton Drive this morning. Similar in the mail app.

At the moment I think my existence could be summed up as doing a better job of taking care of my cats than of taking care of myself. But I guess that's also motivation to take care of myself, so I can take care of my cats.

From a protest this morning against the removal of the rainbow crosswalks in Houston's Montrose district.

At least I'm cute.
Selfie.  I'm a light complected woman with purplish hair wearing black/clear framed glasses. Also wearing a black faux layered top with white collar sticking out and rainbow flag earrings.  I'm standing in a conference room (because the light is better in there).

Internal State Department guidance I obtained says U.S. passports must reflect gender based on “sufficient evidence of biological sex at birth” — or absent that, “all available evidence establishing biological sex at birth by a preponderance of evidence.”

Slice of life as a trans adult in Texas right now. I got a letter in the mail from DPS today. Before even opening it, my anxiety spiked thinking it might be about my now six year old name change. It wasn't.
