🚨If you live in the U.S., please call your Democratic Senators now.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. Republicans don’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

A rectangular sign with a white background and dark blue trim reads "Church of Morongo" in a stylized font at the top, along with a small dove graphic and a cross. Below, in larger, blocky black letters, is the question "IS THE LORD YOUR DADDY?". The sign is mounted on a dark background.

: why does this boy look like a girl?
Have you perhaps mixed up this picture with the toddler (born on 24 January 1943) shown in mastodon.world/@auschwitzmuseu… ?
Why does victims.auschwitz.org/victims?… return "... the person you were looking for was not found"?

Question I enjoyed musing about today was do I, as a viewer of Severance, treat Mark S/cout as 2 separate characters when regarding his innie and outie?
And I have to admit to *not*. But with the rest of the severed workers I do. It's really strange that I don't, but I can't explain why and also why it took me until now to realise this. Brains, eh? =D
WiFi 7 on the Pi 5 is fun ;)

#nowwatching Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)
I've been waiting ages to see this as I thought the Mrs would join me as she's a bit smitten with that Christopher Hemsworth. However, she recently decided that she doesn't like him with that prosthetic nose.
Therefore, I finally get to enjoy another slice of apocalyptic action. Can it match the awesomeness of Fury Road?
I didn't like Fury Road the first time I watched it, fell asleep in the cinema. Was the company I kept.
Though, when I watched it again with Jonathan, I liked it a bit more. Fell in love with Furiosa right away though, bad nose job was a bit distracting for the start of the movie =)
NY State is suing Allstate because its sites handled user data in *plain text* - not a great look.

Basically, they set up their merchant account with a merchant name that is literally, "If you do not recognize the seller, please contact.." hoping you don't notice all the other wrong details. But this does get them a legit email with a digital signature signed by the real paypal.com, which they forward to you.

The most underrated skill in tech engineering is the ability, or maybe the *willingness*, to be an idiot. Sometimes the best way to debug a problem is to forget everything you think you know and re-test the most basic things from ground zero. Sometimes the only way to design a good interface is to look at what you've made through eyes that have no idea what they're looking at. You know too much. Your users don't know anything. Be a user. If you can't be a user how can you make a thing users want
No, I can't either.
The problem with my father-in-law is that he's spent the last 30 years very frustrated that everyone he knows, including his age peers, uses computers and smartphones but he simply can't figure them because the model doesn't match his expectations of how machines work.
It's exasperating because I literally don't know how to teach someone to use a computer without teaching them the UI model, but I do understand not wanting to know that stuff if all you want to do is send an email.
From the other end of the spectrum, back in late 80s I was showing a young adult, just not computer savvy, how to send an email.
As per best practices, I had them touching the computer, with me explaining and pointing. It felt very much like an acoustic modem down-negotiating speed as I had to find their level of familiarity.
"Move the mouse to click the envelope" didn't make sense.
I had to go back to explain horizontal X-Y plane mapping to vertical xy motion on screen.

Judge says Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil can't be deported as protesters call for his release
As hundreds of demonstrators rallied in New York City on Monday to demand the release of Mahmoud Khalil, a federal judge just steps away blocked the Palestinian activist and Columbia University graduate's removal from the United States.Minyvonne Burke (NBC News)
The Trump regime is using ICE to silence dissent — not just against immigrants, but against anyone who dares speak out. Mahmoud’s arrest is a warning shot, and we cannot stay silent.
This isn’t just about Mahmoud. It’s about the authoritarian playbook Trump and his allies are testing right now. Project 2025, Project Esther — these aren’t just policies on paper. They’re a roadmap for criminalizing protest and crushing political opposition.
MAGA’s message is clear: If you speak out, they will come for you. That’s what authoritarian regimes do. Every university, every city, every movement must fight back. Columbia — and every other university — has a duty to protect its students from government repression. That means:
1) Blocking ICE and DHS from campus.
2) Erasing disciplinary records tied to protests.
3) Refusing to cooperate with political crackdowns.
