Data Center CEO chased out of Salem, OR city council hearing by protesters with guillotine.

Love that portable guillotine on wheels towed behind an Xtracycle extended bike.

Let's just say in a world of electrical/energy and water shortages, some cuts are necessary...

each line gets its own wayfinding.

It’s not like when you’re at the station that shares a line right now it only gives the last station name of line 1 and not line 2. It gives it for both.

So it could say:
Line 1: South (last station name here).
Line 2: East (last station name here).

Again, where it stops saying South and starts saying East will be determined by the by the ridership data on what the most common destinations are for a particular line from a particular station.

Though importantly, for someone who doesn't know the typical usage patterns of line 2 in Seattle, I could be off. If people taking the 2 starting from Redmond are primarily going past South Bellevue, then it should say "West" instead of "South."

A transit agency that's aware of its riders typical commuting patterns will be able to identify which cardinal directions to list better than I can.

Any transit system that describes the direction a train is going using the name of the last stop, and not the cardinal direction is stupid.

You really expect me to know the names of all the middle of nowhere towns at the end of the line ? Come on, that’s just fucking stupid.

However, if you live near an Apple Store the protip is Apple carries physical SIM cards for all the major carriers and gives them out for free. And then you can bring that SIM to your carrier for activation.

the video I saw of him before the incident was him filming ICE, and then they went up to him and pushed him to the side of the road.

There was a gap in coverage between the end of that video and the next one I saw where they actually murdered him, so it’s possible in the meantime he was helping a woman bystander, but I’m skeptical of that information.

Any chance you have a link to a video from before they killed him ?

Hey #london, my bike was stolen this morning. I had just finished biking here from Paris. And sadly I had just bought it two months ago. If you see this bike, call the police or steal it back.

you’re forgetting the key tenant of evangelical Christiany: using the Bible to prove the conclusion you had already arrived at.

The more sincere that someone professes that “the Bible is the inerrant Word of God” the more likely they are to twist its words to justify their beliefs.

Today is the day we’re supposed to celebrate liberation from a tyrannical government that suppressed dissenting opinions, frivolously jailed its residents, and prioritized the needs of the wealthy over the common man. In 2025, this is hard to do.

Bonjour! I’m a US citizen living in France with a verbal job offer from a US IT company willing to hire me remotely, pending legal review with their employment lawyer.

I need advice on whether to ask for contractor vs employee status and the legal/tax implications of both (they haven't decided which they want me as).

Is there a #taxattorney on #Mastodon who can help?

Familiarity with US/French tax laws is key. Willing to pay for your time.

However, I have been shifting away from my Apple loyalty recently. I’m not planning on selling my Apple products en masse, but don’t have plans to buy any new ones.

I’ve had success bringing old Macs back to life by installing Linux, so when my M2 MacBook Air goes vintage I plan to install Linux on it.

I’ve also already preordered the Light Phone III and will retire my iPhone 12 mini when it arrives. I’m v much looking forward to this.

I’m arguably Apple’s target audience for most of their products. I’m an early adopter, tech enthusiast, and have disposable income.

My first ever computer I used was an iMac G3 (in elementary school). I’ve been a loyal Apple customer since before I even knew there were such a thing as non-Apple computers.

Yet I still haven’t even turned on Apple Intelligence. It’s simply not appealing. Even if it were good at what it claims to do, what it claims to do doesn’t sound useful.
