It wasn't until I became a parent that I found out how terrified of the dark every room in my house was.

Save crunch time for your cereal bowl. The most productive companies don't look to do the same work with less, but better work with the same. https://t.co/n7VY8x6rC2

@AhmedAnsari153 @SpotifyCares Same issue and same resolution (thanks @AhmedAnsari153). DNS can be re-enabled after the initial login/launch. @SpotifyCares are we to assume that paying customers are going to be affected by AdGuard DNS being enabled?

Just got a new iPhone. Apple is the epitome of “corporate” now. “We can make one button/gesture do two things!” Last @Apple product I buy. Which sucks because Apple was awesome for like half my life. Ah well.

It snowed on Halloween. WTF is up with that ish yo!?!?!?

“What are you dressed up as for Halloween?”

Greta Thunberg at #UNGA: "This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should be in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you come to us young people for hope. How dare you. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words."

@gameofkittens - Getting my full Throw Throw Burrito game today was the best day before birthday present ever! I cannot wait to throw these at my children!!! (They’ve already thrown them at me, so payback is in order)

@riskysnail What Thinkpad you got? I’ve been looking at the X1 Xtreme and really wanna support Lenovo because of their support of Linux.

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

When my iPhone and Mac are dead, I’ll never buy another Apple device. Apple has lost its path since Steve Jobs died. A shame. A company I supported for decades and I’ll take off the shelf hardware to do my day-to-day of running a shell with tmux and vim, because theirs can’t.

@chrislesage I’ve got an older MacBook (2015) that doesn’t have the terrible keyboard that the newer ones have. Not great but not good either.

I dunno wtf I do on here anymore. When was my last tweet? Am I allowed to tweet now? Is the meaning of life still 42? Hi I’m John. I used to do 3D things and then life changing events occurred consecutively. Ive had a cane since I was 18, but now keep it on hand daily. Supwhichu?

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

@Robb_Wells I died. I got better. Now I’m dead inside. Like when you make a grilled cheese but you know you didn’t add enough cheese but you’re like, “Screw it I made this I’m eating it,” so you bite into it and experience sadness because you only added one slice instead of the required 2.

Watching Thor and my daughter asked if I knew Loki. I said I didn’t. She asked why we aren’t friends. Wanna hang out @twhiddleston? LoL

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

@comcastcares Rgr and thanks.

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

@comcastcares DM’d you.

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

@digitalfllad @comcast Metronet is coming to my area. 4x the speeds of Comcast at 1/3 the cost. CS could suck and it’d still be worth it.

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

@digitalfllad @comcast Same here, but it���s still not fixed. Think this type of thing is part of why what we switched to RCN at work.

[John P. Neumann @ArrantSquid]

Favorite part of being a @comcast customer is how often I have to call to get something fixed. “Well call in 2 hours.” 4 hours and counting.
