Found this random memory from six years ago. I'd just like to say that my 3 mile time is lower now and I'm about to hit sixty. #geezer #runner

Good question. Because people are #sleepwalking #zombies? I'm still trying to figure out why #GenZ and #millenials aren't attending anti-#fascist protests and leaving this to the #geezer contingent https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/opinion/americans-poll-trump-news.html #Trump #TrumpCoup

Why do I see #rock #music as such a #geezer genre?

Well, for one, we're still giving #TheBeatles major music awards instead of newer bands over 50 years after they broke up! 😆

I'm in my 2nd day of a brain fart that...like the air they pump in you to do abdominal surgery...is taking its sweet time to resolve itself.

So please help me with what I should remember: what is the name of the scientific society that was founded by Latinx and Indigenous scientists but is open to others? I like the work they do and if I can't remember the acronym, I can't even find them in my bookmarks. #Geezer

EDIT: I kept almost getting it, almost getting it. https://www.sacnas.org/

Even if this is a staged photo, it makes a legit point that generational differences exist in socmed and productivity apps. #ThrowbackThurday #apps #geezer

Oct 7th is still fresh. It'll take a generation to forget.
Funny how the slogan for 9/11 was, "never forget".
Sure we can, and should, cut them off. But that won't stop them.

If Israel is a child of the US, they've grown up, moved out, and are doing what they've learned from US.

If the US now said, "do as I say, not as I do", that'll just come off as hypocritical.

Note to people bitching about #studentProtests ...

#Trump won't fix it. However, #Biden isn't fixing it, either.

Yes, #oct7, /and/ Yes, outsized retaliation.

It's May. Oct 7 is in the rearview. Protesting can't fix that. However, the Israelis are still killing Palestinians en masse. That /can/ stop at any time Israel chooses.

Any of y'all who are #parents know that kids act up for a reason, and, sure, you can give them time out and maybe they'll stop. But figuring out /why/ they're acting up and having a conversation is vastly more effective at stopping the acting out.

I'm an old #geezer who remembers other students at my school chanting in 1968. I remember #KentState. Apparently, not enough #campus #admins do.

linuxmafia.com is my site.

I really don't care about SSL (on my site), because there's no compelling use-case for https for anything the site does. (I could remove the current self-signed cert with no functional loss.)

The whole CA thing is notorious security theatre as implemented. (See Schneier's entire chapter on that in Secrets and Lies.)

Yes, I'll probably eventually upgrade to a serious SSL implementation using something less hopeless than OpenSSL (looking at wolfSSL and MatrixSSL in addition to the obvious LibreSSL [edit: add Rustls and possibly others; would have to check my records]), and I'll probably accomodate the unthinking masses with a Let's Encrypt cert the way MIchael Orlitzky eventually did, but think it's a well-meaning solution (from excellent and righteous people who are cherished friends) to the wrong problem, for the same reason MIchael Orlitzky does.

@willowpillow That gives me some flashbacks. The first time I tried to compile gentoo, it was on a Pentium2. The first emerge took about 2 1/2 days. Then I realized I hadn't emerged openoffice yet.....

#geezer memories #gentoo #linux

@jessica Well, OK, that would explain why I’m loving it now. #geezer

Shoes have really progressed from the Velcro straps shoes and I’m mighty pleased about it. #Geezer

Yesterday I got so old ...

Not yesterday. every day, really.

I went on a Friday night shopping trip to pick up a few things, been doing that every 2-3 weeks lately. "A few things" sure has gotten expensive. Over $100 and I could carry it all in from the car in 2 trips.

Why, I remember when bread was a nickel!
