  1. Damn, forgot to bring my contraband Coke Zero cap to the #TDGarden. Because basketball and hockey fans apparently can't be trusted not to pelt players with them. #ThisIsWhyWeCantHaveNiceThings #Celtics

  2. TIL about #OpenSlopware a growing list of FLOSS projects entering the #enshitocene with plagiarism-as-a-service:

    small-hack/open-slopware: Free/Open Source Software tainted by LLM developers/developed by genAI boosters, along with alternatives. Fork of the repo by @gen-ai-transparency after its deletion. - Codeberg.org

  3. Someone at Google posted a meme celebrating the possibility of Sergey and Larry becoming the first trillionaires, and I couldn't let that one pass by - it got an #EndBillionaires response with a little more text, and then I started getting replies from my supposedly intelligent colleagues basically arguing for trickle down economics. Didn't we debunk that decades ago? #ThisIsWhyWeCantHaveNiceThings

  4. Bought my #dog an expensive tent so she could hide in it and be comfortable.
