I am further haunted that someone who actually wants to work for Amazon, who made it all the way through the interview process and got a job offer, would accept the offer with something as impersonal as a one-line auto-response from their phone's notifications.

Maybe this is a subtle way Google tries to sabotage Amazon's recruitment, as if Amazon's work culture wasn't enough.

Amazon just sent me an email about a job opening, and I'm not interested in it at all, but I did accidentally fat-finger the Gmail auto-response for "I accept this position", so I think I might work for Amazon now.

@thomasfuchs this happens to me every time I connect to gigabit wifi.

@jalefkowit I had the Archos Studio 10, and it was arguably the best music player I've ever owned. I remember downloading MP3s from Audiogalaxy and filling the drive up before a family vacation.

I had the rechargeables in the player, and a bag of alkaline AAs in a pinch.

Check out this desktop screenshot of mine from 2005.

I have always been an advocate for using anonymous accounts online to keep your personal life and the online masses separate.

But those accounts are always just a temptation for me to argue and get frustrated with others, so I am now deleting most of my anonymous/pseudonymous identity for the sake of being a healthier person.

Expect me more here. I like how Mastodon gives me completely control over my identity, and lacks the right-wing agitators that ruin social media for me generally.

@JSkier It certainly does look shady. Not sure what that cat is up to.

The funniest part is that this is the frame I got when I discovered the camera. Lucky shot.

@JSkier

Just some guy with his cat in a bag outside of an apartment complex.

Camera is still open and unsecured, lol.

@SuricrasiaOnline Oh my god, It's been 17 years since I first signed up and they still remember me. Thanks for letting me know this was possible.

Blown away by my 5G download speed. Severely disappointed in my 5G upload speed.

I was worried that being a single-user Mastodon instance would get me on some sort of block list. Like "this guy's his own mod, don't give him a chance", which is totally understandable given how people tend to abuse fediverse communities.

But so far, I can't find anyone who has my instance filtered or suspended. For this, I thank you!

And I'll continue not arguing or stirring up drama, because I don't want this to change.

Finally got around to upgrading my private instance.

I'm ALMOST to 3.5.1, I just have to figure out why I get compiler errors on the upgrade to 3.5.0.

My experience with cryptocurrency so far.

It's my understanding that elon is driving people to Mastodon. I should probably actually use my private instance. If you're new, follow me to give me a reason to keep posting.

I made art!
