I’m done with Xitter now, find me on Mastodon or Bluesky instead. @[email protected] @jacknutting.bsky.social

Now that this site has been taken over by a rich crybaby numbskull, I will probably be posting here even less than I have been lately, if at all. Please follow me on Mastodon instead: https://t.co/UP2140Ewu9

@hottestsingles @unbounders I don't even use Xitter any more, just came here to say that your book arrived in my grubby little hands today, and it seems so long ago that I backed this, I'm pretty sure I've died and been reanimated a few times since then, but that's OK! I am excited to finally have it!

@krassenstein I don’t disagree with your point that Desantis is doing this for reasons that are completely self-serving and odious, but also: Disney is the fucking worst. I applaud removal of taxpayer-funded subsidies for the mouse even if it’s being done for “the wrong reasons”

@locust9 @elonmusk I wonder what other well-known Apple facts he thinks are “secret”

“Did you know that Apple had a secret CEO named Steve Jobs?”

“Did you know that the the iPhone is secretly a touchscreen device?”

På samma sätt som Twitter klarar sig ”bra” utan 75% av sin personal så funderade jag på vad som skulle hända om Stockholms stad drog bort allt underhåll och personal från Skolplattformen. Läs nedan en tråd om vad som faktiskt pågår varje månad i Skolplattformen🧵

@joacim_melin I’ve actually had a mastodon account for many years, but hardly ever used it. And then last month it turned out that the instance I was on is shutting down, so I migrated the few things I had to https://t.co/pIKGHJR8VF 😄

@elonmusk Even if the first paragraph of this is true: Activism is free speech.

While the world is discussing whether or not Russians commit genocide in Ukraine, the director of broadcasting proposes to drown Ukrainian children in the river or burn them in houses. I’m afraid that we can expect more horror when even skeptics will not doubt that it is genocide

@mcmire I think it’s interesting that the declarative UI approach that is one of the hallmarks of React is now also the vendor-preferred approach for native iOS and Android development too, which is a shift that I doubt many mobiles devs foresaw five years ago. I sure didn’t!

[Jack Nutting @jacknutting]

@mcmire Time will tell! I’ll check back with you in five years.

And here's WHY those principles are only weapons.

Because behind the GOP is a single motivating principle: the pursuit of wealth and power.

All these moral stances are just strategies to clothe greed in ideological veneers. Everything else is a disguise.

Arizona just enacted an abortion ban from 1901 with NO exceptions for rape or incest

Alito used a British judge from the 1600s to justify overturning Roe

He also cited Judge Bracton who lived in the 1200s

These religious freaks are literally forcing us back into the Dark Ages

@adamdavidson @FrankConniff I was exactly that age at that time, and even though I lived very far from NYC, I understood even then that he was a bully, a braggart, a lout, and probably a crook. How anyone ever didn’t perceive this about him has been puzzling me for years.

@Foone In Sweden, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone make this mistake. And that’s despite the fact that we don’t even use “cell” to talk about phones here! It’s “mobil” or “mobiltelefon”, and the rarer and more expensive space-using sort is “satellittelefon”.

On this day in 1989, NeXTSTEP 1.0 was released.

It’s clear from this thread that the most corrupt, criminal president in US history will likely end up having the most pissed-on grave in human history. It’s a shame he won’t be around to see it!

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: New book reveals that Donald Trump refused to lower the flags to half-mast to honor John McCain’s death until John Kelly warned him that “when you die, the public will come to your grave and piss on it” if he didn’t lower the flags. RT IF YOU THINK KELLY WAS RIGHT!

Please watch this. Honestly watch it. Absolutely sickening.

The Republican Party is a hate group that is killing pregnant people, among others. https://t.co/S3oepfOA7q

Dems THIS is how you deal with Republican lies. 👏 👏 @alfranken

This is @GM's new Hummer EV.

The car is terrible for both road safety and the environment. The Biden administration needs to regulate it, not praise it.
