Performed in and recorded a chamber choir + piano + organ concert this afternoon. Pulled some serious heat with the recording; maybe I'll share a couple tracks when they're done.

Mia Khalifa is now in the Eric Clapton category.

That category being: artists whose work I enjoyed until I found out what they believed about certain groups of people.

A brief reminder...

Never Again is not a polite request. It is a statement of intent.

I've never been one to put stickers on a laptop.

I think that's about to change. Refurbished T480s just ordered, and Inhave some good stickers sitting around that need a home. I can't afford to attend infosec conferences, but at least I can pretend.

I've followed the development of the Framework laptops. They are cool for sure.

If anyone has another recommendation for me, I'm open. The reasons I gravitate towards ThinkPads are the quality keyboard and overall good construction. I repaired more of them than I could count back in my PC tech days, but that was back in the '90s when they were made by IBM.

Requirements:

High quality keyboard
1080p resolution min
RAM expandable to 32 GB+
m.2 NVMe slot
Second storage slot (could be PCI-E or m.2)
NOT a Chromebook

Everything else is just a nice to have.

Anyone here have experience with buying refurbished ThinkPads from Amazon sellers? I may be in need of another Windows laptop soon and I'm trying to keep the replacement below $500. Been looking at the perennial recommendation, T480.

Today was a good day to deactivate my X account.

Ok
Rather than do a massive mute and block. I am going offline.

Whether you use the word militant or terrorist, to describe Hamas.
If you defend them, and their actions, using propaganda that they, Hamas, invented. You have been duped.

If you think Hamas gives a fuck about the Palestine people, their houses, or the land... You are fooling yourself.

Maybe 25 years ago Palestinian orgs did, but not now.
Now the sole purpose of Hamas is to exterminate all Jews.

Yell amongst yourselves.

Also, I recently posted about Stealth, which is the same thing for but without the following import.

I have finally found a third-party, open-source / X app for that still works despite the API restrictions.

This is a passive-consumption app only - no account login, so no interaction. But that's perfect for how I've been using that site the last few years.

If your profile is unlocked, you can import all of your followed accounts. It works very well.
