Looking forward to listening to @leo cover #Apple's #Wanderlust event via their radio feed, as is my general tradition since these things happen during work hours.
The NYU paper @pluralistic mentioned on #ThisWeekinTech 941 regarding eBooks and Chokepoint Capitalism: “The Anti-Ownership Ebook Economy: How Publishers and Platforms Have Reshaped the Way We Read in the Digital Age” https://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4511975 #TWiT
Listen to #TWiT hurriquake.... Public money pubic code. Simple solution to complex problems
Great episode of #TWiT this week Kudos to @leo and the team for having Cory Doctorow @pluralistic on with Rebecca Giblin Great conversations, intelligent analysis, & possible solutions to deshittify our current timeline Looking forward to Cory’s upcoming books
On a (the most?) recent #SecurityNow podcast, Steve and Leo maybe got confused about "consecutive letters" when talking about a bank's password rules?
I think they took it to mean 2 in a row, like "letter + any other letter". Like "ad" or "xg"
I took it to mean "letter + the next letter in the alphabet". Like "ab" or "lm".
Still a very silly rule, but makes a bit more sense maybe? The bank wants to avoid "abcdefgh" as a password, for example.
(Still a silly rule, though.)
Oh, in case anyone on twit.social is interested - I'm almost caught up with all the #Twit podcasts I missed while we were in Japan.
And now there are a few more that I need to subscribe to. Not a problem - plenty of time to listen while driving between my schools.
@ant_pruitt She will be missed, who will punch Leo? You of course, but Stacey was the clicker/trigger. #TWiT #ThisWeekInThech Podcast Network.
I guess the limit of Musk's devotion to Trump is $350k which is what it got fined for trying to withhold evidence from the Justice Deptartment.
The fine was initally $50k/day, doubling each day thereafter. They gave up after 3 days: $50k + $100k + $200K.
Why isn't Trumpall over them on social media for lacking commitment. LOL! 🤣

TWIT weeding, this is real life, the poor weeds in my garden have no chance when episodes are this good or this long. Time to dig another border?

Last night's taunt of Bing Image Creator,
Prompt:
"a Unicorn, in evening dress, playing a transparent piano with a choir of badgers upstage."
Well, no transparency, only one pianist has a horn, the badgers are not badgers, and in one case has horns, and in one case is missing altogether. One of the pianos is rather odd.
2/10 at best.

I think @MikeElgan needs to get together with @leo and do a travel podcast on #TWiT!!!
@leo Re: the #AppleCard and your discussion a couple of weeks ago on #TWiT, as an #AppleCard holder, my husband and I do NOT keep any balance. We charge ~$5000/mo and pay it all off each month.
@leo It was great to hear on #twit that you’re playing #valheim and listen to #audiobooks at the same time. I already thought I might be strange doing the same thing with #podcasts 😅
#TWiT #valheim #audiobooks #podcasts
Ooh the #Mona app now supports easily adding custom Mastodon instance emoji now!
Forgive me, but I wanna try it out now :dick:
