Black Hat drama this week shows the risks in creating a machine/process w/ the power to censor a group for personal views. Always starts w/ dangerous/unsympathetic views, inevitably expands to censor other groups based on shakier grounds.

@lunduke I like Lunduke, and one of the reasons I do is that you REALLY remind me of David Tennant (British actor from Doctor Who mainly)

Obviously I would never tell someone else what to think or what to say. Ever.

Just the same I would consider it a personal favor if, when responding to my posts... if folks could keep the language both "safe for work" and "appropriate for kids."

I like to keep my feed safe to read and see by everyone -- all walks of life, all ages, etc.

Thanks everyone!

Lunduke likes you for who you are. Even if you don't like Lunduke.

Lunduke knows, apparently, how to write in the third person.

Show thread

It's time for a round of "Lunduke says obvious things about himself because a few people like to make up things about him."

Lunduke is not now, and has never been, a Nazi.

Lunduke is a proud Jewish man.

Lunduke believes in freedom. Free speech and Free Software are my jam.

Lunduke believes in and lives by the ideals of Bill & Ted: Be excellent to each other.

Lunduke has been fighting for basic civil rights for ALL (incl. same sex marriage) since he became a grown-up in the 90s.

Ugh.

I made the mistake of engaging with a couple trolls yesterday.

Was feeling raw, let my guard down, and responded. Such a newbie mistake on my part. Yeesh.

Mental note: just ignore the trolls.

My dad died yesterday.

He was 65 and had become a hero to me. A few months back, when we almost lost my wife and newborn son, my dad came and stayed with us. He took care of my kids -- kept them fed and feeling loved -- while I was taking care of things in the hospitals.

He dropped everything for a month... to make sure he was there for me and our kids.

When I needed help more than any other time in my life... he was there. And he was amazing.

I love you, dad.

What a Clockwork Gameshell? (You do.)

What it for freeeeee? (Also yes.)

My buds at @Linode are giving one away for free. Plus you all get $20 of Linode credit (for running a virtual server or such) to use. Which is also nifty.

Firefox's new Enhanced Tracking Protection whitelists Google, Instagram... and Winamp?

Seriously. Not a joke. Winamp.

This amused me.

I've heard of this most excellent dude called @lunduke you should checkout his show. And don't forget, Be excellent to each other.

If only there was a Tech podcast / show that had...

- No Swearing (kid and work friendly)
- No personal attacks ("Be Excellent To Each Other")
- No political attacks (no matter who you vote for, we're friends)
- Lots of nerdy-ness (goofy and serious)

Shabbat shalom, my friends!

Feeling like going easy for the Friday night dinner. Thinking pizza. Then maybe a movie with the kids and fall asleep on the couch. Sounds gloriously lazy.

Anyone else have appropriately lazy plans for kicking off this most excellent weekend?
