Windows Notepad, the native simple text editor, now has formatting options and a Copilot button.
Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.
Because some people haven't heard it yet: PAYPAL IS NOT A BANK, DO NOT LEAVE MORE THAN A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS SITTING IN YOUR ACCOUNT AT ANY TIME. MOVE IT TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY.
Paypal can and will close your account and steal all your money without warning. And have done MANY times.
Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!
That’s about one quarter of the entire population of Israel, including children. The equivalent in the US would be almost 90 million people taking to the streets.

we need to flood their feedback form demanding they don’t censor. This includes things that make you feel personally uncomfortable and things do not like. It’s always “the degenerates” first, then everything else, all queer people, all queer art, is deemed degenerate. Do NOT fall for this.
screengrab of a portion of new yorker interview with former simpson's writer john swartzwelder: Mike Sacks: How much time and attention did you spend on these scripts? Another “Simpsons” writer once compared your scripts to finely tuned machines—if the wrong person mucked with them, the whole thing could blow up. Swartzwelder: All of my time and all of my attention. It’s the only way I know how to write, darn it. But I do have a trick that makes things easier for me. Since writing is very hard and rewriting is comparatively easy and rather fun, I always write my scripts all the way through as fast as I can, the first day, if possible, putting in crap jokes and pattern dialogue—“Homer, I don’t want you to do that.” “Then I won’t do it.” Then the next day, when I get up, the script’s been written. It’s lousy, but it’s a script. The hard part is done. It’s like a crappy little elf has snuck into my office and badly done all my work for me, and then left with a tip of his crappy hat. All I have to do from that point on is fix it. So I’ve taken a very hard job, writing, and turned it into an easy one, rewriting, overnight. I advise all writers to do their scripts and other writing this way. And be sure to send me a small royalty every time you do it.
hi this is my favorite writing advice, it's from former simpsons writer john swartzwelder (i think about the crappy little elf all the time) www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
I don't know why this lad is building a subterranean city for cats, but I'm all for it.

With almost no media coverage, Israel is obliterating Zaitoun, Gaza's largest neighbourhood, using all kinds of weaponry against its civilian population.
People authorized to use deadly force should be trained to withstand assault by sandwich.
From what I understand GoFundMe is pretty strict with verification for these campaigns, so maybe chill on reporting people. Actual scammers will just use Venmo or PayPal or something.

"Multiple cybersecurity experts that the ABC has spoken with say they have not yet seen any evidence to suggest Gaza-focused crowdfunding campaigns are being targeted by online scammers."

I'm going to scream. This is war crime upon war crime upon war crime. You're going to genocide two peoples at the same time??
This is a totally unforgivable thing to even *think about*, let alone *actually implement.*
The Forest Service wants to know what we think about their reorganization plan, and they're giving us until August 26 to comment. Outdoor Alliance has a handy template letter that you can personalize and make your own.

Buried in the regime's political takeover letter of the Smithsonian is the worst bit. Unlike exhibits, which are non-destructive towards primary materials, temporary in nature, and reversible, the foundational collections are irreplacable. They want to be able to throw stuff out.
Some people won't support you because they don't want to lose what they gain from staying on the abuser's side. Loyalty's easy when it costs them nothing. -Robert Wilkinson eRobert Wilkinson / Bobby_Love

Google Gemini doesn’t appear to be doing too well:
‘"I am a disgrace to this planet. I am a disgrace to this universe. I am a disgrace to all universes . . . I am a disgrace to all possible and impossible universes and all that is not a universe," the bot continued.’
Apparently now we have to be aware of Penske trucks because DHS has a contract with Penske and they’ve been using them for illegal ICE raids.
California doesn’t allow for passengers to ride inside trucks so they’re breaking the law to break the law deporting innocent people.
BDS has a standing boycott target on Microsoft products which people can realistically drop from their lives, understanding that not everyone can change their operating system. This target includes Gamepass, the new Doom, Blizzard games, Call of Duty, the Oblivion remake & a few other current games.
Not long after Musk took over Twitter, I wrote about lost cities, the dead internet, and the demon-haunted online landscape. I can't call it prescient, because the writing was already on the wall
I think more people really need to realize that houses need to be structurally designed a certain way to even allow for accessibility modifications later.
Accessibility is more than just sticking up a makeshift ramp to the front door when someone can no longer use the stairs.
