<p>If you send a follow request, I will look at your page and see what sort of things you post before I accept. Don&#39;t take this personally. I just want to be sure my home is not cluttered with things I&#39;m not interested in. That&#39;s why I prefer Mastodon: I can control what shows up.</p>

    @evacide@hachyderm.io It&#39;s ironic that my company blocks anything with that domain in it. Including the SMB share we&#39;re supposed to download it from... In this case, I&#39;m a sysadmin and won&#39;t be able to read and react to this because IT has it blocked. These are the same people who allow access to the Daily Mail, but not The Guardian...

    I found myself using this under fire at work today: https://wizardzines.com/zines/tcpdump/ If you&amp;#39;ve never seen these, they are highly recommended. @jvns.ca

    @mms I&amp;#39;m considering moving my main desktop to FreeBSD. I am quite happy with OpenBSD, but there are just some things which I do all the time that don&amp;#39;t work (out of the box) with OBSD. For example, I just digitized another book.

FBSD and OBSD have enough differences that I&amp;#39;ve tried to just stick with one. But I may need to ch...

Just sit back and watch Donald &amp;quot;J for Jenious&amp;quot; Trump split NATO, remove US troops from Europe, make it much harder to force-project in opposition to Russia&amp;#39;s plans, and destroy the Western economy. While Xi watches Putin, knowing how weak Russia is. Just a matter of time, now...

    @Sadsquatch @janeishly All the tours I&#39;ve had of the US East Coast seem to include the guide saying, &quot;Then we had a fire which burnt down most of the town.&quot; Maybe, just like forests, we need a good fire now and then to clear out the Old Way of doing things. Maybe that lack of fire is why It&#39;s That Way.

    @alissaazar @janeishly Oddly, I have been telling people for a long time that changes to the law during the Obama administration make it currently legal for the US to seize someone, hold them _forever_, and deny them access to courts and lawyers. They are allowed to deny they have them in custody. The President just declares them an &quot;enemy combatant&quot;. No judicial review, no definition of that, and it applies to citizens. Sen. Diane Feinstein called it &quot;Indefinite Preventative De...
