Dit dus godverdomme.

“Wie als journalist getuige is van een genocide, zoals die in Gaza, maar weigert ze als dusdanig te benoemen, maakt zich schuldig aan de hoogste vorm van partijdigheid. Hij of zij is op die manier medeplichtig aan massamoord.”

From a survival of the species standpoint, that’s probably a good thing. posts.rat.pictures/@hannah/114

Funny how so many of the “AI will replace engineers any day now” takes come from people who’ve never been paged at 2am because a certificate expired in Tokyo.

@realmacdan This is what I remember, but from 10.1.

@realmacdan Is this what ended up shipping? That dock looks really rough.

First they came for the trans community and I spoke out. They said I was deviant, they said I hated women, and they tried to silence my voice.

Then they came for the immigrants and I spoke out. They said I was unamerican, they said I hated my country and they threatened me with deportation.

Then they came for the judges and I spoke out. They said I was a traitor to law and order, they called for my job, and they threatened me with jail.

Then they came for the journalists and I spoke out. They branded me fake, they spat the word enemy and they put my name on death lists.

Then they came for the Senators, the Mayors, and our elected representatives and I spoke out. They said I was inciting violence, they said I was promoting chaos, and they sent armed soldiers in tanks to my city.

Then they came for the teachers, the librarians, and the protestors and still I spoke out. They pushed harder. Arresting, banning, deporting, murdering. Because democracy is dangerous when it does not serve them, and a democratic voice that will not be silenced the most dangerous of all.

Eventually they will come for you. And there will be nobody left to speak out.

I don’t know if I started doing something different, but I stopped getting linked to @theverge. So much so that it has been months since I visited the site. I was only vaguely aware of the existence of a paywall, let alone having encountered it. tapbots.social/@paul/114702279

Bought a #switch2 but ended up returning it. The hardware is fine, but I was beyond disappointed to see that they didn’t do anything meaningful to fix the Joycons. I had two pairs of them wear out on the original switch before I finally swapped out the joysticks for aftermarket joysticks. Like somehow I have better suppliers than Nintendo.

At a certain point if your company keeps shipping a broken product, it’s working as intended. #Nintendo
