Seeing 23andMe Implode is a particular joy. Not for the people that are losing their jobs, that sucks for anyone, but this company profits off the actual most sensitive data a human could ever hold. It should not exist and no other company like it should be allowed to exist. slashdot.org/story/24/01/31/15

Feeling feisty today! Ass holes! This should have been done, I dunno, 20 years ago. www.theregister.com/2024/01/29

Ass holes! work is here and it's not going anywhere. Companies that don't embrace remote work will be irrelevant sooner than later as talent votes with their feet. www.bloomberg.com/news/article

Ass holes! pulling a tmo.report/2024/01/t-mobile-ha I do about 1TB a WEEK through my home internet.

So excited to finally see finally, after almost 15 years of service, turning off the RDFE endpoints (Azure classic) in August! azure.microsoft.com/en-us/upda

@w7voa thanks Biden

@NewsDesk @axios still waiting on that recession everyone swore would happen which was the big reason why so many companies laid folks off. Or was that because of inflation? Oh wait, it was neither, they just wanted more profits.

@santoshhari I should give it another try. I'm a Tom Hanks *.* love for all his movies but this one was a bit of a miss for me - and I love cold war spy thrillers, maybe I was just having an off day or something! Was years ago last I tried.

Hey - patch...right...now

Find and hug your people. My very best friend just got laid off from today. God this sucks.

@lowqualityfacts this tracks.

@GottaLaff Thanks EU, we'll get our shit together (hopefully) shortly.

@michaelcollier you silly goose

@TexasObserver spot on and a good dose of anxiety to start the day! They gotta find the boogieman....

@GottaLaff Fuck a duck yall

@QasimRashid also, no they can't - only mutual disillusion would be legal. We settled this, when Texas, along with its buddies lost the Civil War.
