@vantablack (Wouldn't this cause issues for screenreaders? As those would see every post as a code block now - I would expect them to read code blocks out differently? Not sure...)

Hello friends. Yearly reminder that TurboTax is a scam, and that most people don’t need to pay for tax software every year. There are lists on IRS.gov of legitimate sites where you can file your federal taxes for freee
The one I used last year was just as simple as turbo tax, but wasn’t trying to upsell me constantly.

Some people still don't know that the guy behind Five Night At Freddy's has been donating money to openly transphobic politicians and it shows.
Y'all need to put that license in the bin next to the Harry Potter shit.
@KatyElphinstone Low for information that someone else is expecting me to act on; high for things where I have the time/space to deliberate and refine my understanding over time (and possibly develop multiple answers)

Do you have a high or a low tolerance level for ambiguity or 'not knowing' something?

@straphanger (The benches in that picture seem to be hostile anti-homeless architecture, though)
@elilla @perigee Likewise, a frequent issue I run into that no unit conversion will fix, is the apparent tendency for US-centric recipes to specify extremely specific varieties of ingredients, without specifying whether the variety actually matters or whether it's just what the author happened to use
Often varieties that aren't even available here

in so many political discussions there is such an unexplainable obsession with throwing things at problems and expecting them to work to solve these problems. "tech will save us", or "we need more police officers", or "we need bigger walls" or something like that.

Your annual reminder that creating single event only corporate domains is harmful because endusers cannot tell if oracle-zoominfo-notice dot com is a phishing domain or real. Guess 2024 will also not be the year of security on the phone :)

37C3, covid, anger
watching a talk recording that starts with "I'm a bit under the weather today, so if and when I collapse in a fit of coughs, have some patience please" and people just laugh instead of throwing him out of the fucking building because he's standing there, in front of a crowd, without a mask, admitting that he's fucking sick
