It was surreal. Especially when we had meetings in the conference room that was also the "panic room"
I had the original Hexen 2.0 book, which was an amazing bit of Cybernetic Art. The deck is now available, and a 5.0 version is forthcoming!!

I also use the 2Do app for things that repeat (like taxes, dog medicine) and for someday-maybe things. (www.2doapp.com)
Rats, I was still using Pinboard in the year 2025 as the graveyard for my read-it-later links.
@atproto.com -- any bookmarking apps on the horizon? Can we just reimplement the pinboard API and replace the backend? (But throw away Pindroid, it's awful, ugh.)
Who's a fan of Scala around here?
If you go here you'll be surprised with the amount of activity Facebook/Instagram tracks. You can turn it off.

Trent Reznor performing Sep 11, 2022
The tix for Trent Reznor's show at the Greek Theater in 2022 were way way less. Glad I caught it...

Understood, organizing protests in public can be a risk as we saw during BLM.
I'm just happy that people are starting to wake up to the threat and actually putting up resistance
Finally seeing some rapid response to the unfolding constitutional crisis we find ourselves in. The illegal Musk takeover, usurping the Congress power-of-the-purse must be stopped.

Slow blocking response? ACL check fails, lol
This reminds me of the time I heard a social games exec brag about how much money they made off their Texas Hold 'em "tip the dealer" feature!

Stock certificate for Six Apart Ltd for Paul Lindner
To complete this thread I dug up my old certificates 😁
Happy to see some of the LA artist community show up on Bluesky, including @rebekahwaites.bsky.social
Comment / DM and I'll make a starter pack so we can find each other!
Oh, good idea. I actually exercised my options when I left, so I don't think it'll be a big number.
Or I could check and see if I have a minority interest in Dogster.. lol
Watching Twisters waiting for the power to come back on here in Burbank 💨⚡
I have a bunch of worthless preferred Six Apart stock certificates I can contribute, lol.
But seriously after the sale to SUP most moved to dreamwidth. I'm only still there since I have my lifetime account at lindner.livejournal.com

My favorite thing about Dyson vacuum cleaners is I can take them apart and put them back together 1) without specialized tools and 2) they're so well engineered that it's hard to fuck them up in the process.

Instead of a follow button I'd love to see a slider that allowed you to go from 'nuke this account' to 'always notify me', with various states in between.

History repeating from Livejournal times... Buying more disk/ram at CompUSA and Central Computers and heading down to the Colo used to be a thing..
Now we just need paid/lifetime accounts....
