Fire from last night update: the smoke in the area is terrible. All of me smells of smoke.
The fire crews are still watering down the smoking building.
Hey, it is raining! No, hailing. No, raining. Now hailing. Rain.
I was able to retrieve some things, including my car. Yay!

So…my latest thinking on Elon taking over Twitter.
In the short term, things may actually improve. Mostly technical in nature. Maybe he can help get their business model and finances on track.
In the long run…I expect “free speech maximalism” will pretty much ruin everything.

Ok, seriously- fuck Budget and other car rental companies that disable CarPlay so that you’ll rent their crappy gps.
On Toyota vehicles, you can go to Menu > Projection and answer Yes to reenable.
Post solutions from other manufacturers if you know them!

Checking out the @economist#metaverse summit through their @virbela app. Another example of an awful experience: buggy, slow, and nothing interesting to do in 3D space. Is there nobody doing "product"/"design", fit for purpose kind of work in the metaverse? How hard can it be?

The problem with “free speech maximalism” is that it actually stifles free speech—the free speech of the marginalized and the oppressed—while rewarding the baddest of bad actors.
I’m sorry, I *won’t* defend your right to say “it” — if by “it” you mean hatred and willful lies.

Wow the new OEC economic export data on #Russia is amazing.
Turns out in 2022 Russian men were the most valuable export in Russia.
Since the announcement of partial mobilisation for #ukraine war the economic value of all men who left Russia far surpasses petroleum exports.
