Here is my introduction post:
Instead of defining myself by saying “I am a…”, here’s a collection of hashtags that interest me (in no particular order). #meditation (specifically #twim right now) #cigars #bicycling #photography #computerscience #physics #guitar #music .
I live in #Michigan (in #LakeOrion, which is 35+ miles north of #Detroit), and spend a lot of time around #RogersCity (I’ll bet that’s the first time that hashtag has been used on Mastodon). My kids are really bright and sometimes struggle with #ADHD, so I’ll probably talk about that at times as well. I have spent more than 3 decades of my life as a #programmer, and now I get to be the old man who leads really smart people in solving big problems with small amounts of #software.

Man sentenced for treason for trying to assassinate the Queen had been encouraged to do so by his AI girlfriend

Don't be ridiculous. Books aren't a standard size.
We prefer to measure everything in units of caliber.

@flexghost
Not true at all. I read to what I thought was the bottom of the article, and it doesn't say what I thought was a quote in your headline. I didn't know if you were were female or not.
No need to be rude. I found your post misleading. Others may disagree.
@flexghost
The article that I just read does not say that. I followed your link and it doesn't say anything about dissolving the organization or that he can't do business in New York. It says this:
Engoron ordered that some of Trump’s business licenses be rescinded as punishment, making it difficult or impossible for them to do business in New York, and said he would continue to have an independent monitor oversee Trump Organization operations.

Even if you're batshit crazy and decide to run your floating hamster wheel into an oncoming hurricane.

I agree that it makes a lot more sense. This format seems pretty common among North American programmer types: "2023.09.07".
Now if only I could find an online shopping site that has prices in shillings, guinea, and bob.

This may be obvious, but I recently started routinely adding "-youtube" to google searches. This eliminate most pages with links to garbage YouTube-monetized videos that try to attract people looking for basic instructions on how to do simple things. Greatly improves the quality of search results.

Should the #unitedstates #FCC create standards for broadcast and cable news so great that syndicated "news opinion" must relocate to radio or social media or be fined for broadcasting political opinion?
@kevinrothrock
I wasn't familiar with this, so I looked up the design and history on Wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-28_Sarmat
Does "combat mode" mean that at least one silo has been rearmed with the new missile and warhead?

Ah, a fellow gen-X'er.
I have never seen lightning this continuous. It's been going on for at least 15 minutes with less than a second between each flash.
In Lake Orion, MI.
Apparently, the UK's current government looked at the falling life expectancy we have in the US and thought, " It's working so well for them, we should try it!"

Using Mastodon
and the Fediverse is an act of rebellion in itself.
By being here,
you are contributing to grow an alternative system that is led by the people and for the people, not for profits.
By being here,
you are encouraging a solution to a deteriorating social climate that thrives on outrage and the monetization of hate.
By being here,
you are participating to the development of a new system that can slowly build a better world.
Thank you for being here 💚
