It is always a bad idea to centrally collect biometric data in bulk. Highly sensitive biometric data of 2,632 individuals: CCC captures U.S. military biometrics database ccc.de/en/updates/2022/afghani

Our dogs got toys for Christmas, as usual. Leo wasted no time removing the squeaker from his. But I was quite surprised to find a message hidden inside the toy. #Christmas #dogsOfMastodon

With all this chatgpt hoopla, I'm reminded of a section from Asimov's I, Robot:

"in a little while, Dr. Lanning and Dr. Bogert will be here with this complicated question. We'll give it to you a very little at a time and very slowly, because we want you to be careful. We're going to ask you to build something, if you can, out of the information, but I'm going to warn you now thta the solution might involve ... uh ... damage to human beings.

I had no idea that #gitea went for-profit.

Meanwhile if you are Welsh, now is the time of year where a skeleton horse might show up at your door and challenge you to a rap battle.

Merry Christmas from Mari Lwyd!

The "we cannot do a journalism without quote tweets" argument is ... I'm sorry, it's the *worst* rationalization for that feature I have seen so far. My catty response would be, "Wow! You mean journalism was invented in the year 2015? Amazing!"

My even cattier response would be that, here, on this site, I covered a "straight pride" parade turning into a police riot. I was posting, complete with CWs, with the taste of pepper spray in my throat.

Find. A. Better. Argument.

An anecdotal report on the growth of Mastodon. When I joined in early November, there was maybe 1-2 posts about #CriticalRole in my Home feed on Thursday nights. Now, towards the end of December, my Home feed is flooded with them.

I _really_ need to stop doxx'ing myself..
