Iced Raktajino

Charlie Kirk. Kirk, 31, was the CEO…

He was only 31?

Geezus. Hate really does age you. I’m over 10 years his senior, and he looks 5 years older than me. And for once, this isn’t a humble-brag.

But I’m not going to spare him any empathy either

Me either. I’m not even sad he’s (apparently) no longer among us. I just get disgusted with everyone who’s calling for violence left and right (metaphorically and politically).

Might be a bit premature. I’m gonna hold off until someone whose brain isn’t a pile of mush and who isn’t a pathological liar confirms it.

But if someone’s gonna make some wisecrack comment celebrating/endorsing acts of violence, they should definitely watch it to see the sick reality of what they’re celebrating.

Kirk is (was?) a piece of shit, but the armchair judges, juries, and wannabe executioners around here need a reality check.

How’s this?

“No, Chicago salt trucks are not being used to interfere with ICE 😉”

Why would we? lol, we wouldn’t. But when management says “Help Delores with her app problem”, what are you gonna do?

No/Low-Code: Letting people who don’t know what they’re doing half-ass things poorly without understanding the first thing about it and leaving them completely incapable of fixing it when something goes wrong and then pissing off actual developers when they have to go into the Playskool interface to fix it.

By Grabthar’s Hammer, what a bargain.

That’s like throwing the baby out with the bathwater, though.

All the stuff I’ve ordered from Ali is still in use (or in my parts bin awaiting use). e.g. All my smart bulbs are from Ali and were pre-flashed with Tasmota. They’re almost 6 years old and going strong.

Very good. I’ve seen too many random Google Forms going around just harvesting emails / info to plug my details into any that I don’t click into from a legit/verified site. Not that I’m accusing OP of that, just that I don’t know where they got that form link.

Is that an official Google form and/or who am I providing my (required) email address to?

Is there an official Google page that links to this? Sorry but anyone can share a Google form.

As a human being…also feeling a bit betrayed

I know, right?!

Clearly we need MicroUSB-C /s

If those are my two options…start looking for my projects on Codeberg I guess.

Sadly Lemmy isn’t exactly known for being the most nuanced group of people.
