whoever blew up the nord stream is a genius. perfect strategic move. now even if everyone capitulates this winter because it's fucking cold, russia will not get paid.

3090s appear to be going for about $800-900 now and not the $3300 i paid for mine. i did not get $2500 of fun out of mine.

signal's serverside contact storage sgx handwavey bullshit is, in fact, bullshit, and should be called out more and better.

amazon killed my account the other day because i tried to buy a gift card for my friend while i was traveling abroad. it was legitimate. they refused to reopen the account and suggested i make a new one.

i bought a $500 prepaid amazon gift card for cash and made a new account with a new email.

guess which account also got suspended today.

a periodic reminder that every time you put the tip on your card instead of tipping in cash, you are financing the drone war and the cia’s global network of torture prisons

it’s really amazing the entitlement i run into in the f/oss world. no, you are not allowed to ship nonconsensual spyware simply because you wrote some code then gave the code away for free. your misfeatures will be patched out, and you are not being wronged as the software you wrote and gave away is no longer yours, it is ours.

TIL i think it is possible to enable supervised mode on an ios device with a usb cable and without apns-mediated mdm saas

the official mastodon ios client has no way afaict to permanently disable content warning clickthroughs, and of course (thanks to apple’s shit notification system) notifications from my own instance don’t work
