I snagged @cmdrtaco.bsky.social if that’s your jam. It was ‘nice’ to discover that I’m now irrelevant enough that nobody bothered squatting my nick. I continue to use @CmdrTaco.federated.press on mastodon primarily since I’m pretty done here.

@TomWinTejas @RetroTechDreams I was great! Thanks!

@hschhaya It doesnt matter either way. It’s only twitter.

@mrjeffknox Thanks for the kind words. So much great stuff tangented out of those first 5-10 years… people can hate on it, or punchline me and That’s fine. It also was a hot mess sometimes. But it was also frequently awesome.

@timothylord Slashdot was great for a few years and I was proud of you and everyone else who worked to make it so. Hot takes on elno era twitter don’t matter- This is a place for hot takes & mobs, not nuance and complexity.

You would be very correct. I don’t know if I was ever more proud of our whole team. Everyone stepped up.

@derekm00r3 @d_feldman Well *i* remember it :(

Today on geeks in space episode #854 we talked about the navy ship with secret starlink, dye that makes sin translucent, perceiving blue vs green, the haunted Starliner capsule, and Angela Collier’s brutal Picard dissection.

The fact that my Apple Music in 2024 can't keep the 'last played' and 'plays' variables synced between my phone and my desktop is pretty pathetic.

I had to google a piece of furniture and a that hillbilly elegy guy’s name because i didn’t understand a steady flow of meme imagery and guys, 2024 is wild.

I have listened to ~400 episodes of the empire podcast and hundreds more spoiler specials, and I was this many years old when I found out what @jamescdyer looks like while watching the 4 hour Aliens Expanded documentary. Now awaiting @HelenLOHara & @ChrisHewitt

@JomsBrin @StarWarsMusMin By this logic, R2 fucked a Death Star.

@solsenNet @dhh Is that from one of my old themes? Fire!

Geeks in Space episode #831 talked about the Dune Popcorn Bucket, Roku's HDMI Injection Attack Patent, Vampire Power Drones, and Kong x Godzilla...

Geeks in Space, Episode #827 talked about Fungus, Voyager, Plasma, Cicada Pee, and the White House taking a hard stand on... typed languages?

@ErinIshimoticha I do not recall this exchange but I had the notion of proposing to kat on Slashdot several months prior, using Valentine’s Day as the future date so I might not chicken out… so it was possibly on my mind!

@Emm_Initiative @hemos @timothylord I had handfuls of grits thrown at me while speaking at an event. I shoulda started a band except for lacking even triangle or tambourine level proficiency. Good name.

RT @mathewi:

@mathewi I was right.
