❤️THANK YOU❤️
This year, our guests raised more than $150,000 for our partners at @akidagain during #winterchillout!
We're so happy to give back to this organization that helps so many families give illness a time out.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

In 2022, we get WAY too caught up in sensor specs, FPS, max aperture, etc. But what matters most is a given photograph’s ability to alter thought patterns in peoples’ minds.

Do you poop or pee at work? Efficiency analysts call it “Quiet Shitting” and this millennial trend is devastating the economy.

The Huron River flows into my sib @LakeErieNorth 😢😢😢
This river is the source of drinking water for #AnnArbor and many others downstream of the spill. #CleanWaterisLife

Good reason not to bother making games for iOS. They’ll just get deleted after a couple of years, unless you continuously keep rewriting them on new frameworks forever. Expect more shovelware on apple’s app store after this.

People are asking me why I endorsed the use of "We're Not Gonna Take It" for the Ukrainian people and did not for the anti-maskers. Well, one use is for a righteous battle against oppression; the other is a infantile feet stomping against an inconvenience.

Now I understand why buying avocado toast stops you from being able to buy a house. Avocado toast 20 times a year at 5,000 per trip to Mexico really eats into a house savings budget.

Chipotle: 26% profit increase. Raising prices.
Starbucks: 31% profit increase. Raising prices.
McDonalds: 59% profit increase. Raising prices.
Shell/Mobile/BP: 60% profit increase. Raising prices.
There's not a labor shortage.
This isn't inflation.
It is 100% corporate greed.

To the neighbor driving by and asking why I was riding a jet ski in my tiny pond or why I’m hooking my donkey up to pull me in a broken sink in the snow, “THIS IS WHY I QUIT MY JOB AND BOUGHT A FARM.”

You’ve never heard of #Napster?
In 1999 I set up 3-5 .mp3 file transfers on Napster every night and hoped they’d be done by morning. #TrueStory
That’s right, kids. It took ALL NIGHT to download a few songs.
Napster is the #GenX equivalent of walking to school uphill both ways.

The Wire: Trump Special Thread 1/
Attorney General Garland yesterday mentioned 'new' forensic methods to catch Jan 6 terrorist insurrectionists that were not commonly used prior to 2003. One is cellphone tower data. I mentioned it already on Jan 10. Let me tell this via a story

The more I work in tech, the more I realize that a lot of people who are very visible are not seasoned tech pros. They're professional influencers.
It is something we should talk more about, because it can cause harm.

Not only did @makerbot use shoddy security practices for Thingiverse, they're also handling the breach and now the spread of the leaked data in the worst way possible: By staying silent.
There's more background to this; it's been a frustrating experience. I use @thingiverse *a lot* to pull down 3D models so this is all particularly close to home for me.
