Hey, for some reason I'm just seeing neofetch. Looks like it's not supported anymore but looks really cool! Any words of yay or nay??? #Slackware #Linux


Am 28.12 um 13 Uhr stelle ich mein OpenSource Energieoptimierungsystem auf dem Chaos Communication Congress vor. @simoneherpich.bsky.social wird zusΓ€tzlich unsere bald startende Petition zur Vereinfachung & netzdienlichen Nutzung von Kleinspeichern vorstellen.



Breaking: Elon Musk promises Donald Trump β€œan important role” in the upcoming presidential administration, with β€œspecific areas of responsibility to be worked out.”


A note to say that any shutdown in the US due to the *Debt Ceiling* is entirely arbitrary, optional, it would only happen if they choose to do it, they can always spend whatever they choose to spend. #macroeconomics #uspol #politics



Yeah this definitely won't make people think he's even more of a badass. Stellar optics work, agents of capital

I am heartened by this. Not by the crisis we face, obviously, but by reading stories of people putting on their oxygen masks in preparation and doing the work of survival and perseverance in concrete ways. Survival is resistance. We need to remember that.

Someone in the piece talks about making sure her family is okay so she can make sure other families are okay, and that's exactly where I'm at. Through 1/20 we are in a holding pattern, and now is the time to do or set in motion what we can to be okay ourselves. So we can take care of others.

Bad things will likely move FAST once Trump takes office. And if we are not positioned to sustain our care of ourselves and our families, we are not going to be able to summon the stamina we need to fight back and take care of others.


Urgent alert: given a potential government shutdown soon, tomorrow may be the last day you can update your social security gender as a trans person before the Trump administration takes power. No telling how long he will allow such changes. Go get it done!
in reply to Erin Reed

At least one person is noting that their local office has told them they will continue to process gender marker changes even during a shutdown. It would still be prudent to get your gender marker changed as soon as possible given an impending Trump admin. bsky.app/profile/jord...

Weird, it's almost as if we live in a world so deeply in denial about a continuing and unaddressed respiratory symptom-linked pandemic that we will latch on to just about anything we can to explain the symptoms

I also want to pull this out. I do this on my CV as well. Especially when you get above department-level reviews, every discipline has different assumptions about what authorship placement means (or doesn't), what multi-authored pubs count for, etc. Make it easier by explicitly stating what you did.

Excellent thread. Still so much we don't know about these viruses when it comes to human infections. (& a lot we don't know in animals as well). 🦠πŸ§ͺ#episky public health

I just blocked at least 20 fake accounts, Go Fund Me's included. Some of you still follow fakes like these. Please learn to recognize them. I guess I should just post this reminder daily. Maybe it'll start to sink in.


Remember when he drowned the sister of Trump's transportation secretary with one of his cars and everybody shrugged

I don't think incarceration is a humane way to practice accountability. I do think there are folks who do not belong in society with the rest of us and that shunning and exile has its place, but the vast majority of people imprisoned do not fall under that category.

RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:zmjrw…

It took me a long time to come around on prison abolition because when it was first introduced to me as a concept it was in conversations that felt facile and by people who seemed unwilling to talk about the realities of accountability needs. So I get having a dubious response.
in reply to Gwen Snyder is uncivil

I do believe there is a need for unrepentant violent abusers and predators to have space to themselves and/or with each other to exist outside a context where they can do continued harm to the rest of us. But there are a lot of ways to create that separation that aren't prison.


I am a prison abolitionist and also I believe all of these men should be sent to an uninhabited island that is in imminent danger of getting swallowed by the sea

I would guess they're more than happy to see generics become inaccessible if they can extract promises that newer proprietary drugs are left untouched.
