I'm reading the CIA Simple Sabotage Field Guide, and it's altogether an amazing work, but this is my absolute favorite part:

"Anyone can break up a showing of an enemy propaganda film by putting two or three dozen large moths in a paper bag. Take the bag to the movies with you, put it on the floor in an empty section of the theater as you go in and leave it open. The moths will fly out and climb into the projector beam, so that the film will be obscured by fluttering shadows."

When you don’t create things, you become defined by your tastes rather than ability. Your tastes only narrow and exclude people. so create.

rant 

once again upset about how techbros push to abstract away the internals of "artificial intelligence"

no matter how much you abstract it its still math! math can't make independent and moral decisions!! the decisions your model will make are a proxy for the input data it was fed and the way it was programmed!! you can't make strict math sentient!

Give me good design or the detailed vestiges of aging: a patina, a history, an unfolding process clear to the eye or fingers. I have no time for this "new world", a lie that denies its past yet supports a present devoid of care. Maybe my ears have tolerated this emphemera, ever indulging the new and the transitional. Still the wind grows thin & cold. Time for a storm?

My heart sinks when I hear anyone and especially digital artist staying Technology is Just a Tool. Please Please remember Technology is created people and encodes their cultural assumptions, this is true for a clay pot and a VR headset.

@binarycat I had a blind developer user when I was employed as local IT support for a company. I had to reinstall the company's Linux image on his computer, so he had to show me everything he needed installed and I found it really interesting, and he was kind enough to answer my questions about it too. He also had one of the coolest devices I've seen a braille display that outputted TTY or terminal display so he could read it and code.

Today I'm like this. Well as least I can say happy Luna New Year of the Tiger!

We spoke with the FSF, and we found an arrangement so we could have access to a somewhat reliable internet connection for the event, and so we'll be happy to give a keynote at the upcoming LibrePlanet, March 19 and 20!
