Psst. Web writers. C'mere.

If your site uses WordPress as a backend, there are probably a bunch of fields on your profile page with dedicated social links.

You can just put in your BlueSky or Mastodon link instead of, say, some oligarch dragon's personal hate treehouse. It'll go here instead.

Testing, testing. this should be showing up on Mastodon and BlueSky.

There are rumors floating around of both Chrome getting an Android-powered reboot, and Google trying yet another laptop design. The second point is what interests me, because they've tried to build a mass market laptop four, count 'em, FOUR times, and each one has failed.

What would a successful Google-branded laptop look like, and can Google build it? https://www.pcworld.com/article/2525709/what-could-google-do-to-finally-make-a-winning-laptop.html

Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

@AAKL@infosec.exchange Appeasement doesn't work, and enriching the oligarchs only makes society collapse faster.

That said, there might be some value in accelerating the inevitable at this point. How fast can we burn, how fast can they fiddle?

Something I got paid to do this morning.

The country's going to shit and a lot of people will suffer very soon, but for the time being I'm glad I can at least get a little joy out of my job.

@demiller @AAKL@infosec.exchange I agree, and they'll certainly tell Trump to defang everything federal. And he will. But both Republican commissioners wrote specific support for this action. So there's at least a tiny, weak, sliver of hope that they're not quite ready to out-and-out declare that lying to your customers with AI is fine.

I want Lenovo to release a special, Ireland-only green version of its portable gaming PC, and call it the Lenovo Legion Go Bragh.
