@itsathing.bsky.social OMG, I'm dying about the first person book thing. Now I want to write a book in second person just to see if that, too, would trigger these people (and, arguably, might be more applicable).
Executed a warranty-violating maneuver to align the gantry in my CO2 laser yesterday. It appeared to fix things, though I later found comments on the YouTube site I followed saying "that shouldn't fix it—you need to do this instead." Why did I look at the comments? #laserengraving
@cnn.com Hating the producer’s feed and visibility of the crew during breaks on Out Front. It’s jarring and unprofessional.
@medstarhealth.bsky.social I am never going to click a button in an email message and then provide PII. Seriously, what are you thinking with these appointment notifications? If you need me to fill out pre-appointment paperwork, make it available in the patient portal. #infosec #pii
Unfortunately, that’s the bridge I use to cross post from Mastodon. I reposted this rather than originating it on BlueSky. Didn’t realize it spams folks—sorry!

Is AI a cult or a virus?

I'm judging you by how you load the dishwasher.

No hat! 👍
Is @cnn.com trying to be clever by opening the producer’s mic and showing the crew on set before the commercial breaks on #cnnoutfront? It’s kind of lame.

An unsolicited email message purportedly from Quicken prompts me to click a button to log in and read a letter from the CEO.
@quicken.bsky.social, a financial services company, sends out an email message with a button that will prompt for your account credentials to read a letter/post. Either this is fishing or [and this is what I'm betting:] they're more clueless about #infosec than I give them credit for. Bad form.
About to record Entertainment 2.0 with @joshpollard live on Twitch. Come watch. It’ll be fun! https://twitch.tv/digitalmediazone
I may or may not have just worn my joggers all day long. I work from home and probably nobody cares. But I still feel like I was getting away with something.
#AVRant Podcast #999.7 - Blows Up Good
Audio only version:
NASA Administrator: We're doing things! Pretty much the same things, but we have a big, powerful name for this big push, thanks Trump. Oh, and we're getting rid of that whole "gateway" thing our scientists and engineers told us we needed to make this whole moon thing viable. It'll be better […]
So Paramount has killed Starfleet Academy before its second season even airs. Why? Because of low viewer ratings fueled by a homophobic smear campaign and haters who'd suspiciously never previously posted much but suddenly had a lot to say?
Sorry, @kairyssdal.bsky.social , but I am indeed going to @ you re: Project Hail Mary! I kind of want to know more behind the "meh." Did you like the movie version of The Martian? Personally, I believe the (same) screenwriter did a similarly great job adapting the story for the big screen.
I asked Claude to matrix what channels were included in which plans. There are some weird exclusions from News+Ent+Family: Bloomberg? USA, TBS, and TNT, which I think all still show stuff other than just sports. I suspect I can live without those, but it's just kind of weird.
Thanks for letting me know. Maybe they were still working on the licensing deals.
I just saw Project Hail Mary.
They did good good good.
A young man (representing me), seemingly walking with his boyfriend (representing my BMX iX), looks back over his shoulder at another guy (the new Rivian R2) they just passed. Credit and thanks to ThornShadowWolf at r/lgbt for this distracted gay boyfriend meme image variant.
I participated in the Rivian Electric Joyride at @SXSW this week, and...
Well that’s disappointing.
And with the OOO message posted, my week is over, and I'm officially on vacation. #SXSW
