(Also, yes, I own one of those books. I've actually read it cover to cover if only once, and it's very literally torn apart from decades of use as intended.)

religion (Christianity) and hate 

After you read those, ask yourself why that bitter, spiteful, auto-excommunicated bully leading your church knows the Holy Bible less than a damned pagan trans girl at peace.

Quit mistaking hate for righteousness. Love *all* your neighbors, including your queer fellow Christians.

Quit mistaking vengeance for justice. We're not a threat to care and love.

Start being a neighbor to those among you who need one. We always have been and will be your neighbors.

religion (Christianity) and hate 

Today's reading list for so-called Christians:

Lev. 19:18

Luke 10:25-37

In case you worship and thump that book-shaped golden calf more than you open it, click here, pick a version, and read:

You could create a 4 hour YouTube essay full of twists and turns about how many masks have gone off after the fash X11 fork announcement in the Linux and BSD communities.

I've been doing a ton of digging and you wouldn't believe how deep this shit goes.

Monday is a holiday here in the US, meaning that today is one of the best days of the year to push your untested vibe code to production. Just remember, if the code would have worked when tested, it would work in production, so there's basically no risk.

robotgirl who used to be a combat bot and is now at peace and trying to heal. it’s made more complicated by her chassis having chaff/flare launchers designed to protect her from incoming missiles, but it’s hard wired to her fight or flight response, so they go off whenever she’s startled or overwhelmed

she caused a small fire the first time her partner said that they loved her, when she instinctively launched flares inside her apartment.

after that she took the flares themselves out, but couldn’t take our the launchers or the hardwired connection to her main cpu, so now whenever she’s startled or overwhelmed, the launcher doors on her back open and emit a bunch of clicking sounds as it tries to launch flares that are no longer there because they’re no longer needed.

How you know you found the good shit:tm:

when the IEEE paper starts invoking faux 3D sigils made of logic symbols

Great response here from Quakers in Britain when they received an anti-trans letter about their trans-inclusive bathroom policy: quaker.org.uk/documents/re-sta

my current thinking is that if any of your upstream dependencies has a .cursor folder, they're frickin' morons and you need to remove that dependency pronto

Hey cis folks in the US: there is a high probability that things are going to get even darker here for your trans family, friends, neighbors, and strangers. Now is the time to show them that you will stand up for them.

Spreadsheets peaked 36 years ago with Lotus Improv, and it didn't need huge, water-hungry artificial cities of building-sized space heaters pretending to be intelligent to work.

Microsoft added AI-BS to Excel while warning it's BS. Amazing.

PC Gamer, "Microsoft launches Copilot AI function in Excel, but warns not to use it in 'any task requiring accuracy or reproducibility'": pcgamer.com/software/ai/micros

Quote:
Microsoft also advises against using the feature for "financial reporting, legal documents, or other high-stakes scenarios," so basically most of the things people turn to Excel for.

My first computer didn't run a Microsoft OS (but it did have a customized dialect of Microsoft Basic in ROM).

My first Windows PC was a Toshiba T4600C, designed for Windows 3.1, but upgraded with an 8 MB RAM card, an 800 MB HDD, and Windows 95 from a 13-floppy set.

Happy 30th anniversary to the version of Windows that gave the world the Start Button and adopted a Rolling Stones hit as its theme song.
