Oof. That is bleak, and all the more so because you’re probably dead on

How is offering users the option to set a backup/recovery email a dark pattern?

There are plenty of good primers out there, but one I like and find accessible is “Anarchism: A Very Short Introduction” by Colin Ward

A lot of models are being trained on “synthetic” data now, right?

I wouldn’t say either party are the “good guys”, but the Republicans are the worse of the two, and it isn’t even close.

I’ve done this before with a laptop and KVM switch. It worked fine. YMMV depending on the dock and switch in question though. The only issue I ran into was needing separate cables for the mouse/keyboard and video from the switch to the dock.

One of my new favorites when trying to decide if something is worth doing - “Is the juice worth the squeeze?”

I’ve already mailed in my ballot, and I volunteered to be a poll worker (though they haven’t gotten in touch). With a week (maybe two) to go before we get the result, I feel caught in a limbo. It feels more important to me to be copying my important documents and organizing go-bags to be ready for a crisis than it does to do anything at work. I also recognize that that is probably a reaction to stress and anxiety and isn’t helping me. That said, I’m part of many groups that the right-wing hates and is openly threatening, so feeling unsafe doesn’t feel unreasonable either.

How are you all holding up out there? And tips for me to deal with this better?
