hey so Linux people:

I want to be able to rebind all the shortcuts to use meta instead of ctrl, to more accurately act like macOS.

I do *not* mean remap. I want ctrl to still be ctrl, so ctrl-c sends a normal ctrl-c. I just don't want it to be used for the "copy" action.

Hi everyone. It’s been a couple months now since I got made redundant and while I’ve not been idle, I’m still not employed.

If you have a role going that I’d be suitable for I’d love to chat.

If you want to know what that role might look like, try this: https://jeamland.net/posts/on-the-hunt/

Hey, @purpleconNZ. I've been looking for the Great Archive for both the 2018 and 2019 conferences, but the only references I can find are on the CFP pages for each year's con.
Can you please point me in the right direction?

TFW you've finally decided to properly get into @Docker and you re-watch a couple of @jessfraz talks (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mzbIOtcIaQ) and then have songs about little boxes stuck in your head for the rest of the day.

Thanks @CyberGovAU - updated software and MFA are always good advice. But you for got to mention encryption. Widespread adoption of end-to-end encrypted communication and storage services would mitigate the risk because when intruders broke in, the data wouldn't be readable. https://twitter.com/CyberGovAU/status/1273811901810487296

The CTO at my first job, who was 20m away in his office, called me to ask me to stop sharing my salary info. He said I was embarrassing him. I told him he was going about the problem all wrong.

I repeated this at the next digital agency I worked at. And I'd do it again. https://twitter.com/Inhumansoflate1/status/1271899613570625538

Dear @jk_rowling,

This week, two black trans women - Dominique “Rem’mie” Fells and Riah Milton - were murdered. The details are horrific, involving dismemberment and bodies in rivers. In light of that, I want to take a moment to explain to you why your TERF ideology is lethal.

Holy crap. Want to know why there are no good cops?

Because a good cop reporting on a bad cop will get himself raided, and thrown involuntarily into a mental health facility.

Then the other cops will make a badge of a rat in a straightjacket to celebrate it. https://twitter.com/Eugene_V_Dabbs/status/1271659750665539584
