If you have handwriting enabled on Windows 10 - Microsoft records every single keystroke you make into an unsecured file. It's basically a keylogger you have no idea is running in the background. Many phone keyboards work the same if you enable the 'swipe' feature on them.
This is a file that can be quickly downloaded and accessed by anyone with a modicum of access to your computer - malicious or otherwise. techspot.com/news/76575-win…
If you want to disable this feature, follow the instructions in this link.

Today is a day you almost never hear about - Holodomor Remembrance Day, where we remember the 8 million Ukrainians who starved to death as a result of the communist regime.
Any mildly successful farmer was known as a 'kulak' and were killed or expelled to Siberia. If you were even mildly successful in the USSR, well you must have stolen it from someone else.
The new farmers, who were poor and inexperienced, were then given impossible grain quotas which were to then be collectivized and sent to the cities. The farmers weren't paid for it, and weren't allowed keep any grain for themselves.

This is incredible, I highly recommend donating to @MAPS,
they are doing fantastic work.
68% of participants going through assisted MDMA therapy had their PTSD completely cured within 12 months. It's unheard of to even cure PTSD.

once in a while i try to engage with microsoft's 2010s initiatives and they're all such trash fires, i'm continuously staggered by how this company is wasting their vast resources and skilled people on shit that anyone could tell you is awful
i learned that windows ostensibly has an android interop system now where you can text through your phone using an app on your desktop PC. this interests me - there's other apps that do this but I find them hokey.
there's a control panel in windows to set this up - pretty slick, except it has a big, ugly advertisement for microsoft's dead horse they won't stop beating. why are there huge empty grey areas? what's with this text alignment? why is there a dot?

My resume used to say my primary languages as a programmer were Python, Java, and C++ but I think I may have to update that as it's way more accurate to say I'm fluent in the following languages:
confusion, frustration, and annoyance.
not that I'm saying I'm a bad programmer, I don't think I am. I'm on the good side of decent!

It's just, and I'm sure you all understand, it's just that computers are terrible.
you see this bullshit? this is an emulator running an emulator. I'm emulating a 64-bit PC on my 64-bit PC so I can run a different OS to run an emulator for SNES games, an emulator that runs juts fine on my primary OS.

(otoh a terf would probably conclude that in addition to "forcing myself" on lesbians I'm now going after bisexual women using some kind of "male feminist performative wokeness" but who cares what terves think)
(me, that's who, not in the sense of respecting their opinions but in the sense of constantly analyzing their thought patterns, I have a problem)
basically I've got TERF Simulator 3000 constantly running as a background process in my head, so if you ever want to know what a terf would say about a particular argument or situation you can just ask me instead

Many of you don't know this about me:

When I was a still living at my roach-infested apartment, I also had NO idea where to start from, like many of you might feel now. IT IS normal.

So, what do you do?

Thread.
1st step: Brainwash yourself.

If you are 19, your subconscious is dominated by a belief system you've built through the course of your entire life.

It takes time to reverse the limiting effect of those beliefs and thought patterns.

3-12 months to alter your belief system.
2nd Step: Overtraining & Overexposure.

It took 2 months of reprograming to change my grounding beliefs, and limiting thought patterns.

I believed that "making money online cannot be a real thing"

The more I exposed myself to new ideas, the weaker that belief became.

Almost all of the Road Runner cartoons are available via the @BoomerangToons app.

I subscribed for $5 & decided I'm gonna watch & tweet about 'em all in chronological order, even the later, terrible ones, for which I have an irrational affection.

Here we go.

Boomerang lists them alphabetically not chronologically so Chuck Jones masterpieces sit side-by-side with 1960s atrocities (& later 'revival' attempts.)

I am going to start at the beginning. I will also be including Wile E. Coyote/Bugs Bunny & Ralph Wolf/Sam Sheepdog shorts, FYI
September 17, 1949: "Fast And Furry-ous"

Chuck Jones intended this short to be a parody of cat & mouse "chase" cartoons. Instead, he accidentally created the definitive chase cartoon series of all time.
