Over 100 on my TBR list right now. I need to stop buying books until I can whittle this down a bit (but I probably won't).

Good morning :) Been up for a bit, watching the rain on the window in my office. Got the dogs out of bed and outside before the heavy rain hit - so that was a win. Multiple Dr. visits today including a CT so I will be driving in the rain.

We will see you in Colorado.

I work in IT, which is the reason our house has: - mechanical locks - mechanical windows - routers using OpenWRT - no smart home crap - no Alexa/Google Assistant/... - no internet connected thermostats Tech Enthusiasts: Everything in my house is wired to the Internet of Things! I control it all from my smartphone! My smart-house is bluetooth enabled and I can give it voice commands via alexa! ! love the future! Programmers/ Engineers: The most recent piece of technology I own is a printer from 2004 and keep a loaded gun ready to shoot it if it ever makes an unexpected noise.

The difference between an IPA and a triple IPA is that the triple IPA contains three times as much cat pee.

that was...wow... no words. Your courage is without bounds

Now you can break up with big tech at a bar: ‘cybersecurity disguised as a party’ These digital security organizers bring the fight for online privacy to dance parties, bars and reading groups

“While the reach and sophistication of these surveillance apparatuses escalate, so too are authoritarian movements,” EFF’s Daly Barnett told @theguardian.com. "I think people are recognizing those two trends and trying to figure out what to do about it.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/202...

Our first game is Sunday against the LAK (assuming I got the sport correct)

Stop New York's Attack on 3D Printing New York's proposed 2026-2027 budget currently includes provisions that will require all 3D printers sold in the state to run print-blocking censorware—software that surveils every print for

Buried in New York State's proposed budget is an ill-conceived measure to stifle 3D printing with surveillance and censorware. We need to act now to defend creators and demand legislators to drop these provisions. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Maybe - maybe not, we should try and find out

Women’s and Gender Studies researchers work to hold AI accountable | The Tech From healthcare to government, machine learning models are changing how decisions are made. This is what can go wrong.

"There is just plain, old-fashioned authoritarianism happening right now,” EFF’s Cindy Cohn told The Tech. “I think it is a mistake to think that this current moment was only created by tech, because then you don’t think hard about how to get out of it.” thetech.com/2026/04/09/...

Huh? When did THAT happen. I feel old

I do not know, I am also not a morning person. Please don't interact with me until 10

Cosigned and thank you for putting it so succinctly!

alien 1 - allowing themselves to be ruled by those with the brain capacity of a moon rock is stifling their own progression

alien 2 - they'd be further along if they were led by plankton

alien 3 - you'd think they'd have figured this out by now i guess we'll have to reschedule our plans again

I dunno who needs to hear this, but: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
