Just like with US politics, I think (hope) this was a wake up call that alternatives are needed and that maybe so much heavy use of one platform controlled by one nutbag CEO isn’t a good thing. It has been a pretty good platform overall (has its warts, but is very flexible, has a huge developer community, and actively developed/maintained), but the drama over the past year has been the nail in the coffin for me. It’s not something I’m ever going to recommend to my superiors or potential clients as a solid, long term solution to content management.

I don’t work for them, but I’d recommend Jump Desktop for that. Works very well and has been out for quite some time.

Yep - I legit haven’t seen an ad on YT in years. I also, just the other day, ran across another filter that disables the stupid shorts since I don’t care for that format or YT pushing it on me all the time. Almost usable platform now.

Exactly - in-house (the companies your agency used to do projects for). I think I got an immediate 40k bump going from advertising (an interactive agency) to healthcare.

I can speak from experience: working on the agency side the pay is insanely low. Switch to the client side and while the work isn’t as interesting or fun, you’ll get a huge pay increase.

I’m glad to see “Americans” getting used less for obvious reasons, but every time I see that written I read it as “us asians”.

I dumped Adobe completely several years ago, and found that Pixelmator has been an excellent Photoshop replacement. It even now does vector images - used to use an app called Graphic for that (for an Illustrator replacement), but should now be able to do all of that from Pixelmator.

Which miles will the protests be stationed on?

Without reading the article, I think I have a better than 50/50 chance at guessing the mayor’s political party.

Ah - you’re right (seems to be “pebble OS” but not Google hardware). It’s still all over my feeds today though.

Marketing department at Pebble is apparently familiar with social networks cause they seem to really be doing the rounds today (lemmy, hacker news, etc).

Damn - lost opportunity. That one’s better.

Shut up, Wesley.

I believe a boycott of the Kennedy Center is in order. Don’t attend shows until big orange leaves the board.

Never forget: Charles Logan died a hero in Cliffhanger.

Resurrecting their commercials from the 90’s now, it would go like this:

Duuuude, you’re gettin’ a Dell.

Oh…… dang.

I’ve hoovered schneef off an ejected warp core in the middle of a fight with the borg.

Mitch has done nothing but enable the incoming administration, and helped to get it in power, so he has no leg to stand on now in all of his hand waving about the polio vaccine.
