I just mistyped LinkedIn dot com as KinkedIn dot com and I was disappointed that domain was not something more titillating.

Did your employer participate in the boycott in July?

We raised awareness, but Zuck dismissed our demands. The protest must continue. Here is a template for raising the issue at your next all hands meeting.

Can someone explain GAIA-X to me? I read it’s technical architecture PDF, but it seemed like a nonsensical assemblage of AWS and Kubernetes words, despite its repeated assertions of being a “user-friendly infrastructure ecosystem”.

2,977 people died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

188,000 Americans have died from . That’s a 9/11 every day for 2 months.

Americans accepted security theater, unwinnable wars, and giving up civil liberties to stop terrorists—but trumpers won’t even wear fucking masks.

I never want to work in an office again, but I do miss hanging out with friends in meatspace in my non-work time.

I am trying to spend a lot of money on a sit-stand desk and companies in Sverige are doing everything possible to not sell to me.

Customer service in this country sucks. It is almost like companies do not want to make money.

@vfrmedia @kvothe This image. With rooms we get the “decentralized” model. I want the “distributed” model to work. I have some friends and I talk to them. They have some friends (hopefully including me) and they talk to them. Cozy♥

Frustrated and disappointed by the options for sit-stand desks in the EU compared to the US that starting a company to unsuck this situation seems reasonable. (It is not reasonable.)

Facebook is a social network known for its protection of its far-right userbase. The site has been widely described as a safe haven for extremists including neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and the alt-right.

If you oppose these groups, why do you keep using it?
