"Terraform is so simple and easy to use" is a masochistic lie that has been said so many times it's become accepted truth

@RyanTClarke at least we don't have to worry about relegation as the wheels fall off the bus #silverlining #rctid

@kendralittle at least it wasn't the SharePoint for data, I'd really question them then

@kendralittle my Portland suburb police dept put out a post for those celebrating 4/20 to encourage designated drivers and doordash šŸ˜‚ , basically do what you do but be safe

Utah didn’t ban youth hormone therapy such as testosterone boosters for cis boys. It didn’t ban ā€œgender affirming surgeryā€ such as breast augmentation for cis girls.

Just for trans kids.

You know, in case you’re wondering if lawmakers are really out to ā€œprotect the childrenā€ like they claim.

Give me a break.

I think people have been gate keeping Mastodon a little bit. The narrative that it’s for nerds or difficult to understand or set up seems far fetched.

People understand email and sign up for it right? We used to copy and paste code to add music widgets and confetti to our MySpace page, and that was widely popular.

So why is selecting an instance and understanding the separation of feeds such an ask?

Maybe we should change the conversation around the Fediverse and tell people what it allows, and what it does different than focus on the five minutes of mildly inconvenient setup.

Reevaluating my password manager (1Password no longer supports vaults that aren’t synced to their service) decision in the wake of LastPass just giving the hell up.

Mac, iPadOS, and iOS support needed; has anyone gotten to a place they like? I’m fine with syncing vaults via S3; if that gets popped we’re all doomed anyway…

Re: #lastpass #breach - and specifically those using Lastpass Families, there’s a whole lot to consider regarding whether to migrate to a new service or not.

Here’s what I hope is a useful thread 🧵 of things to consider for your next steps…

If you are just joining Mastodon (as I am) a good basic explainer for what's different (and what's the same) about it.

@scottnasello I expect people are going to spend the rest of 2022 figuring out what post-Twitter platform to use, definitely not anything Meta, maybe this maybe not
