USA vaccine refusal
If you're in the USA and not signing up for the vaccine, I don't want anything to do with you.
When you go out in public, have the decency to ring your bell and shout "Leper outcast unclean" so the rest of us know you're tainted.

University of Minnesota banned from Linux kernel development and a purge begins:
"Because of this, I will now have to ban all future contributions from your University and rip out your previous contributions"

I had to chisel my car out of the ice this morning. Isn't Michigan wonderful?

We got out for a nice walk on a lovely day, and then went to look at an RV purchase, which we agreed to. But while doing that the weather turned into cold, blustery rain and wind. Still, excited about the RV. About 5300 steps this time. 2.08 miles in 47 mins.

People, we just flew a helicopter on another planet. As disappointed as I am by humans most of the time, we can still do some amazing stuff.

🙌 Thank you 🙌 to everyone contributing to a lively discussion just now on #ActivityPub for Administrations! And especially thank @redchrision for the clear presentation 👍
Important points were raised, on how to engage with citizens as an institution, what moderating capabilities the #fediverse offers, possible administrative limitations to self-hosting / moderating. The next webinar April 26th 10 am CEST delves deeper into ActivityPub with co-author @cwebber -> https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/pub/ec-ngi0-liaison-webinars-and-workshop-april-2021

“Actually, if you look carefully, you can see we are choking the baby, not shooting it…”
“What about them? They shoot babies too!”
“You’re just jealous you don’t get to shoot babies.”
“It’s our baby to shoot.”
Basically every argument of every #Bitcoin reply bro, ever.
Well, I guess I had something left in the tank, because the back yard is now mowed.
Today I got up without back pain for the first time in over a week, so we went out for a short walk. I didn't want to overdo it, so we kept it short, but if I have anything left in the tank I may mow the back yard later. About 5150 steps this time. 2.00 miles in 47 mins.

RT @angryrobotbooks
Count Dracula was 412 when he moved to England in search of new blood.
Sauron was 54,000 years old when he forged The One Ring.
Cthulhu had seen galaxies flare into life and fade to darkness before he put madness in the minds of men.
It's never too late to follow your dreams!

Proof of work mining should be illegal. Destroying our habitat by intentionally wasting energy on an already-unconscionable and ever-increasing scale is a crime against humanity.

And no, I’m not worried someone else will “steal” that idea.
Ideas are cheap. Dime a dozen. Dime a HUNDRED.
The discipline to write the damn thing? THAT’S the important, very expensive part.
