Status – Reading George Fox

+1 For Mozilla

Firefox is seriously tempting me away from Safari. I don’t use Facebook much, but having it quarantined when I do is an awesome idea. +1 for @mozilla!

Shame! Shame!

Shame, @cafegrumpy, Shame! Just look at this macchiato from Grand Central.

What the Fuck!?

What the fuck @NYTimes? I only wish I could cancel my subscription a second time. Why in the hell is your executive editor sharing the stage with a man who’s proud of his virulent racism?

.@manton already mentioned this, but great response by Apple to the current brouhaha around iPhone battery throttling. If you have a 6 or 6S, it definitely makes sense to replace the battery once the price drops to $29. I certainly will.

Only the Conservative Viewpoint

And the only opinions the NYTimes solicits are from people who are lukewarm to hostile about regulation. Including the Koch brother affiliated Mercatus Center, which seems to have a pretty dubious way of judging regulatory burden. The article even notes that they are counting restrictions on regulators as more regulation.

Amtrak

So I’m being horribly decadent, but riding Amtrak’s Empire Service up to Hudson lying back in Business Class is super comfy.

Limbless

My niece: Did Dad leave his phone downstairs? Me: Gasp! It’s like he’s limbless! 30 seconds pass. My brother: Hon, could you bring my phone upstairs?

Both Sides!

By Bruce Steinberg 2017-12-17 Politics

Right in the middle of a piece about Trumps inflammation of racism, @NYTimes drops a graph about how there have also been anti-Trump harassment & assault. Without any examples. ‘Cause we must leave the impression that “Both Sides Do It”.
