  • It depends on who you mean by "we". I don't think the "we", as in the users of Bluesky would want their posts to be used this way. Yes it's transparent and accessible, but only to the technically inclined who can make use of it.

    I wonder how much more The Matrix references become relevant. We become food for the machines whether they tell us so or not.

  • Given the majority of the supreme court are constitutional literalists, I'm going to stake a claim on very unlikely. That is literally against the first amendment.

    Now, let's say we live in some kind of bizaro land where you can be taken to court without the protection of the first amendment. (Difficult ti believe I know). You would still, hopefully, have a right to an attorney. If your case is high profile, or you have enough money, an organization like the aclu would help.

  • I went to Texas A&M where H W's library is. It's a... nice building with.. uh... museum about him.

    Story about H dubs though. I met him. It was at a BBQ joint on the side of the road halfway between College Station and Houston. The town probably has less than 2000 people living in it.

    I was meeting my dad for lunch. There were a bunch of suits in sunglasses and earpieces standing in a dirt parking lot full of trucks with rust holes in them.

    We walk in and there are H W and Barbara eating brisket.

  • I can appreciate that. Especially if the files in question are of sentimental value.

    I would suggest transferring your files to a new drive anyway because of bit rot.

    Being the typical helpful (pushy and self-important) Linux user, I might add there is no reason you can´t transfer them to Linux 😜

  • If it isn't for professional reasons you absolutely can't avoid, I would switch wholesale. As a once famous song said "Freedom isn't free. It costs folks like you and me. Andif you don't put in your buck o five who will?"
