I went to a GOP congressman's town hall. The rage over DOGE is a force to be reckoned with.
  • I know a ton of people died, and countless more where hurt, and it hurt the economy, but as an introvert hermit, GOD DO I MISS LOCKDOWN.

    I do my best to keep up the life style, but I'm still expected to go into the office every once in a while for my wasted day as we all call it.

  • Microsoft: "My PC"
  • Ugh, the updates.....my work PC is Win 11, I got an email from IT last night telling me I had to install the latest update I had been putting off. This morning after I clocked out I started the update. I have 500 down and it took almost 2 hours to download and 3 hours later the installation is only at 53%. I'm just going to go to bed and hope it's done by the time I have to clock in tonight.

    And my coworkers wonder why I prefer Linux.....

  • I...didn't get the memo
  • I could put on an Aerosmith record before I knew how to put my Disney VHS tapes in the VCR, of course then my older cousin brought over her Master of Puppets album and I fell in love with thrash. As she still likes to remind me, "I turned you into a metal head before you were out of diapers". I still love the classics too BTW.

  • Risk of ‘Trumpcession’ rising, economists say, as global markets fall
  • That is one way, and it is smart. For me I have a small amount of companies that I own and want to increase my stakes in those. The problem is they are all up at the moment. I'm waiting for a drop then I'll start buying in.

  • Risk of ‘Trumpcession’ rising, economists say, as global markets fall
  • Yep, when I started investing about 20 years ago I read as much as I could, one thing that always stuck with me was a Warren Buffet quote "be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful".

    That's generally how I approach investing in stock and Bitcoin. There are exceptions of course, but that's the general plan. This stock or whatever isn't failing, it's on sale.

  • Reddit subs shadow ban?
  • Very interesting, thanks. I really need to get my activity pub link setup since it would be nice to also be linked to mastodon. Oh boy, another project! ADHD for the win! Squirrel!!!!

  • Reddit subs shadow ban?

    I run 4 subs on reddit, I got curious since I haven't seen any activity on my main sub. All 4 have been set to private. 3 of them are dead and I don't really care, but one is used to promote my blog so I flipped it back to public and saved the settings. When I went back and checked, it was private again.

    I guess I'm being shadow banned, oh well no reason to post there again. I'll just have to set up a sub on Lemmy and move on with my life. Just curious, any other reddit mods seeing this?
