Big news: I’ve joined @tailscale as a Customer Support Engineer!

As a homelabber and self-hoster, I fell in love with Tailscale for how effortlessly it makes private networking just work. Now I get to be part of the team building the new internet—one that’s secure by default, peer-to-peer, and built around people, not infrastructure.

I’m beyond excited to be part of this team.

Lots of momentum in my life right now. I got laid off from my job at the end of February, and I just accepted a very cool new job!

Details to follow. All I can say is that it will be a very exciting new chapter in my career!

So the guy who calls himself "Kekius Maximus" and has a Pepe the Frog avatar threw a Nazi salute at a far-right anti-immigrant rally, and the ADL is calling for people to "give him the benefit of a doubt" and consider it an "awkward moment".

Neo-Nazi groups had no trouble understanding what his gesture meant...

People need to drop Facebook right now. They should have done it a long time ago, but now is better than later.

I keep hearing the excuse that leaving Facebook is too hard because your friends and family are there. That's the problem!

You may not fall for disinformation, but your presence gives others a reason to be there. Don't be a part of the problem. Don't be a part of the reason that others stick around and absorb disinfo.

Get out now, and find another way to stay in touch.

Mind you, I know enough about compression to know what I was buying when I invested in this solution, but a significant consumer of LTO tapes are video producers and other media professionals, and they are never going to get the capacities advertised front and center because they are based on an absurd assumption that probably only applies to enterprise use cases.
