@RebelsHeart After several years of receiving this from certain job sites and companies, definitely ignore, unless I want to share my metrics with that particular company (rare, typically indies).

Reason being: recruiters, particularly large tech recruiters, will frequently leverage any contact information to attempt an upsell to meet their contact and hire quotas, similar to sales reps. In addition to being mentally and emotionally exhausting, doing so promotes spam.

@xenon For those tuning in here, here's the notice: https://tfr.faa.gov/save_pages/detail_0_1203.html

Phone numbers and contact of those who issued the order are listed, and the requesting party is indeed DHS.

Gnash the fash.

@Taylor This is one of those cases where it's easier to instrument virtual cores and Windows extensions to actually do this instead of make a viral video that fakes it. Whyyyyyy.

@Taylor Damn. Oh well!

@chr ... dragons, however, are good at scaling.

@cdmnky Reminder, however, that there are data sources that are still trustworthy.

For WA, for example, they're here with methodology mentioned in the footnotes: https://www.doh.wa.gov/Emergencies/Coronavirus

Some folks are also privately aggregating data. Rebekah Jones, who was fired for not politicizing the numbers in Florida, has her own dash for the state here: https://floridacovidaction.com

I believe aggregators for these exist, but more are welcome.

Bless you for trying, tiny advertising blurb:

Not that the game is entirely legible on this small a device, and HID is weird, but it plays.

Setup: GPD XD, SWGEmu + old discs, and Steam running from the other room via Steam Link

It's wild that, due to a combination of modern hardware and software, I can play Star Wars Galaxies (Jump to Lightspeed) on an Android gaming tablet.

@chr My oddly specific anxiety for future history students is their needing to learn proper MLA format for tweets.

@chr Pretty sure this is also the premise behind the Tick and, to a lesser extent, Freakazoid -- by virtue of both being highly distractible cartoon deconstructions of modern superheroes of their time.

Apparently in the Tick's case, he also explicitly has "drama power" -- his power level increases as dramatic tension of the plot increases.

I've been rereading scp-wiki lately, and ran across two positive ones that I didn't expect to end on a hopeful tone. Both are good antidotes to dreading the state of the world right now.
