I'd love to see a series of Star Trek featuring Robert April and looking at the ship's first missions. First flight? Sign me up.

No Company Has Admitted to Replacing Workers With AI in New York New York state has required companies to disclose if β€œtechnological innovation or automation” was the cause of job loss for nearly a year. So far, none has.

Starfleet Academy is the show the world needs now. Lessons on peace and empathy.

Well done.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Woof. Given how many of them count on stocks and bonds as part of their wealth, as opposed to physical assets or money in the bank, a number of donors and highly influential supporters going to be maaaaad.

The Washington Post's tagline, Democracy Dies in Darkness, was dead wrong. It dies at 2 a.m. in social media screed with Ai imagery. It does not quietly, but obnoxiously loud. It dies not with just tears, but many cheering it on, because they got to "own the" others they disagree with.

At that time, the company committed to improving its practices, including by testing various means of wiping data, yet this most recent investigation revealed that some of the same problems persist 15 years later.

The results of the investigation were similar to those of an audit of Staples by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada that was conducted in 2011.

Can't wait to get @patrick.risky.biz's take on this mess:

www.priv.gc.ca/en/opc-news/...

An investigation by the Privacy Commissioner of Canada into Staples Canada has found that the company did not fully remove users’ personal information from returned laptops that it later resold.

Cool concept. I’d reverse the shelves to put the wet boots closer to the floor and the dry stuff above.

I liked the ending of Stranger Things. Hit the right notes and right in the feels. Going to miss the show. Crazy watching these kids grow up.

We’re going into 2026 with some of the world’s biggest social media platforms undressing individuals without consent, sexualizing minors and openly using chatbots that encourage suicide & predatory language.

Not the greatest start.

This Christmas, I have just one wish for you:
Take a moment to really see the older people in your life.
Let them know they’re loved, valued, and never invisible.
Share a smile with an elder you don’t know.
Offer a warm holiday greeting.
Small gestures carry enormous power.
Love,

Lynda πŸŽ„βœ¨

2024's word of the year was 'enshittification' was and 2025's is 'slop'. Either next year the word is something like 'encrusted' or we figure out a way to bury the garbage or use it as fuel for something more productive

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

- @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit.

Incredible words.
Listen to all of it!
