Had such a fun night at Joan Pratchler’s Oktoberfest fundraiser last weekend. Nothing beats talking politics and drinking beer at the same time.

Server infrastructure costing too much?
Need less capex spend?

Try centralising in giant monopoly datacentres

No backup, no failover

Just giant monopoly datacentres
Huge AWS bills too

You will certainly not regret giant monopoly datacentres

Seeing bulldozers tearing down the east wing to build a monument to a dictator during a government shutdown is surreal. He really is unstoppable.

Berkly Catton was drafted 8th overall by @seattlekraken.com

Parents Chris & Desrae are both teachers & my wife & I had the pleasure of working with them throughout our careers. They’re a humble family but SK couldn’t be prouder of Berkly.

Tonight, #77 will Release the Kraken!

-A living wage
-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family
-The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence

These are the foundations of real freedom.

So can we all agree that if Amazon its self is able to break the internet, we have a problem with mega corporations controlling our flow of information and how we ingest it?

Corporations don’t care about you. They care about profits, share holders, and government ties.

Remember that.

There’s a special place in hell for people who use leaf blowers.

I've been a Toronto Maple Leafs fan for 20 years. As such my ability to believe in any Toronto team to follow though has been shattered.

With that said I'm wishing the @bluejays.com the best of luck in their next 2 games.

Make us proud.
