@sudo_bmitch there is no https://t.co/F6YqOcQLpd that I know of

@johnolilly DAN A4-SFX case, if you can get it, is absolutely sublime. Exactly the right size for GPU + standard mini-ITX form factor motherboard. https://t.co/oRRZG3ZYfy

@kemitchell This is a different context :)

@Pinboard let me think where we could come up with new digital consultancies.. nope can't think of anything, drawing a blank. oh well

@Pinboard so it's a BUSINESS STIMULUS PACKAGE we delivered! Does it go to the local area?

@Pinboard maybe I should think of it as an economic stimulus, but I am unclear where failed campaign $ actually goes. Sign printers? TV ads? I don't even know

@Pinboard Maybe they're tired of throwing money away on races they feel they are destined to lose? I must admit, dumping thousands of $ into a campaign that doesn't make it does not feel.. great.

@JohnONolan "who will think of the brands???"

@RobinDotNet I think it has to be this way, otherwise everything is bad

italic ending text plus non-italiziced quote mark.. looks bad https://t.co/XcSrvJElgg

@Pinboard https://t.co/P5MZkxUbxG

@Pinboard windmill: TILTED!

@Pinboard no no this was other Polish programmers, who reacted to this blog post https://t.co/8gTIcuAkdT search for "poland"

@Supermathie @lyserrrgic pretty sure that's a parody post.. Poe's Law?

@Pinboard yeah the poland story is disturbing. I particularly enjoyed the angry Polish programmers who insisted what was happening was good and right and proper via direct email to me, when I mentioned it on my blog..

@brianfenton @susanthesquark obligatory joke!! ;)

@textfiles well, at least they realized the inevitable, eventually

@TWolverson maximum overRIGHT

@alexnixon_uk not gun control or abortion, but bigotry, racism, sexism, etc. I do take your point and I agree with it, see https://t.co/PG6veB1ive

@jwz to be fair, the War on Straws was already happening at places where you take kids for many years now, and I think for more practical reasons: they almost always make a mess / get thrown around /messed with. I'm amenable.

@imMannino lol YES now that you mention it

@Prof_Buchner @luhegoes the general idea is to move it off your platform. It can go to a literal public commons elsewhere, because Hacker News certainly isn't one, it's a business associated with Y Combinator etc

@shog9 too soon

@patrickmi @sheetz option on top fine, but ONLY FRENCH FRIES? Insanity

@rhatr spam? people? five orders of magnitude growth? lots of stuff "happened", my hombre

@jwz @textfiles social media shaming is a form of challenge, hell, it's about the only form in active use these days

@chetfaliszek @BikersForTrump live by the Trump, die by the Trump

@tqbf @marcprecipice @kennethn @Pinboard money, on the other hand.. and tech is an obscenely rich field, with a moral obligation to use that money for good.

@tqbf @marcprecipice @kennethn @Pinboard hard to argue that "general advocacy" is particularly helpful in the current world of all humans present and connected on social media 24/7

@Coty @kennethn @marcprecipice Mine is more of a “yes, and” observation. Let people know how you feel by publicizing your sending of money, which also conveniently provides a handy link for others to do the same..

@tqbf @marcprecipice @kennethn @Pinboard Provided there is a clear call to action and link to donate in the message, absolutely. That is what I am advocating for.

@marcprecipice @kennethn @Pinboard Allocating money to orgs is the only method that results in actual change, so it should be heavily prioritized.

@psaffo Why is this grass bad? I read about 50% of the article and I don’t get it. Considered a weed, somehow? But it is grass.

@kennethn @marcprecipice Actions, in the form of money sent to organizations that work toward the goals, are the only things that matter. I’ve never invested any startup, ever, but I have raised funds for tech solidarity and @pinboard

@marcprecipice @kennethn The collective mental toll of explicitly shared agony, with no action plan, is.. considerable.

@marcprecipice @kennethn Fair, but nothing moves the needle except sending money. Actions, in the form of money sent and soliciting money to the desired places that can take action, are the only things achieving .. well, anything at all

@jwz @discourse TL;DR mail is wayyy too hard. By an order of magnitude.

@jwz running your own mail server is a source of indescribable ongoing daily pain. Funny thing is in @discourse, "set up third party email" is easily the step that bollixes up the most people by far, like... it's not even close. And that's not self-hosted mail!

@StuartKearney I've heard good things!

@Hanzo55 I need a version of that where people get slapped in the face

@SparkyRobot I feel like there's a book deal and movie options in here, somewhere, down the line

@kevinmontrose code comments

@clywcanada NOOOO PALLI

@g33kbeast @bijan people live a loooong time now for the record. https://t.co/2K2XV98oRI

@deadprogrammer if you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it

@deanputney it is like a case study in crawling so, so far up your own butt

@ftrain https://t.co/AFHnvHLu3j

@ftrain https://t.co/7W6u9Hxdtu

@waxpancake also look how fricken great the c64 was https://t.co/gDW8vrlcxF

@waxpancake never forget https://t.co/MI6BdxWOZT

@waxpancake I feel like I am still angry with you for using that Atari 5200 screenshot of pac-man with the Atari 2600. I think when I first saw that in the 80s it was my first true Nerd Rage incident. Because the 2600 version of Pac Man was an ABOMINATION UNTO GOD

@Carnage4Life this stuff is our new reality. I don't know what the solution is, but playing whack-a-mole with {infinity plus one} websites and policies is not a rational way forward.

@Carnage4Life and tell me, has this "doxxing" been removed yet? If not, why not? https://t.co/3XAz5aqwPS

@Carnage4Life I guess this is my underlying concern. I don't disagree on actual posting of people's info directly .. where it starts to have teeth is when Twitter / Facebook etc start banning *links* to sites that provide public info on people. Is that gonna happen?

He said, "It was just one of those free association ideas you write down and look at later and think, 'Maybe.'"

@Carnage4Life So it'll be hosted by right wing or left wing websites instead; what's the effective difference? One click away.

@Carnage4Life I do agree with you for private figures who are neither famous nor work for the government

@Carnage4Life I think this will happen regardless and is effectively unstoppable. It is like trying to prevent sharing of decryption keys https://t.co/lZZ0uQdkDT

@Carnage4Life I do think working for taxpayer dollars makes you more accountable in the public trust than a random person working at, say, Walgreens.

@Carnage4Life It’s not “doxxing” if they are public figures

@nrhinkle @_lanzz_ Same process either way, try it if you don’t believe me

@jongalloway oh no! it takes away your breath! keep breathing John Gallowieigh!

@hafthor @shrinipedia not that either, this was a Walgreens drug story.

@urbanwhaleshark @toolan Wasn’t referring to that. There is another Walgreens drug store story out there.

@shrinipedia funnily enough, it isn't.. there's 2 other examples I've seen *today*

@frightware if you are paid in nightmares like I am, a lot

On the one hand, being an a-hole should have consequences. On the other hand, are we really getting the full story, and will the response be even remotely proportionate?

@tqbf @Pinboard @xlerb hail

@lenoir_aaron editing isn't the goal; improvement is

@bendhalpern if that doesn't match your personal preference, well then, perhaps we are different people, with different goals, and different methods of achieving our goals. So be it.

@bendhalpern I'm fine with escalation; without escalation there can be no resolution.

@bendhalpern where I object is when people lecture me about righteousness and have absolutely no frickin' clue what they're talking about. I'm fine being lectured by active users who have experience.

@Hanzo55 Alien Nation!

@ellecer You are misunderstanding. Transfer on visibility demand versus “blindly load every image on this page” which blows up mobile plans so wastefully

@pborenstein @Pinboard @garybernhardt it is also more than a little bit like absolute power corrupting absolutely

@AndyDavies all this was covered in previous twitter replies if you read more closely

@AndyDavies check the data https://t.co/ViZfS7ZwZh

@boratlibre I see, this is about hover, I have submitted an edit to make that more clear.

@boratlibre This is flat out wrong.

@deadprogrammer That is okay because durability is really not that important in construction, any software engineer knows that

@Carnage4Life ... and the correct answer is "not really" https://t.co/7jTAYMIfzH

@deadprogrammer I have read your russian stories on this!

@glompix one hell of a surprise twist ending you dropped on us

EXCEPT ON TWITTER REPLY ALL YOLOOOOOOOO

@textfiles @frankcifaldi FUCK THAT STATUE *UUUUPPPP* FRANK

@_lanzz_ You could try. Probably doing so ends the game immediately. So many things in the game like that.

@tobie and this https://t.co/QrpVO1VVet

@firasd all those are far harder. "giant cosmetic image 3000px down the page" is the easiest win and lowest hanging fruit here by FAR. Also by payload / byte size.

@_techie007_ wow I'm legit impressed

@waxpancake this is also the exact moment, as a 16 year old high school student, I said "y'know what? screw this game"

@wonderella "Grammer Enthusiasts"

"The lack of traditional puzzles made the game stand out at the time of release, although it also resulted in some criticism of the dry police work. Unlike many games of this genre, the style of play depends largely on a strict adherence to standard police rules and procedure."

@waxpancake https://t.co/EU6y9Evjtq

anyway, if you want to experience failing at literally every thing you try to do, give Police Quest a try https://t.co/nCbcq5jnWC

@Pinboard @garybernhardt this is an .. interesting .. position to take

@tim_iles it's not mentioned much in the doc, interviews with the documentarian says why -- "wasn't talked about in court so we didn't cover it"

@tim_iles there is actual evidence for it!

(note that they filmed ~3 new episodes in the documentary that cover 2015, 2016, 2017 -- yes, this case went on for nearly two decades)
