@mjg59 HBO^H^H^HMax, please don't disappear "The Wire" before I finally watch the whole thing (paused after one season 15 years ago, finally restarted last week).Also, don't cancel Craig Mazin's contract.

@mjg59 @littlefox I know you're referring to software development settings. Other workplaces present different challenges. For me (working in healthcare and primary education settings, with a distant background in corporate infosec), it's common to feel that I'm better able to protect sensitive data than my employer, whose IT systems are often overseen by an overworked operations manager who's struggling to keep the lights and HVAC running, as well as manage a coterie of aging servers and desktops. But except when invited, I rarely deviate from the work systems I'm given, since I don't want the liability I'd assume in going my own way, even if I'd be more efficient (and even if my employer wouldn't care). The employer "owns" their policies and their consequences.

@frameworkcomputer Wow. This is really giving your market what it never knew it needed. WANT.Also, needs accompanying "Cylon eye scanner" sounds.

I'm looking for advice on buying or hacking an inexpensive bike trailer to haul cargo. I'd love to have a simple flatbed onto which I could secure crates, cages, appliances, small furniture or willing people (up to 50kg), and could hang on the wall when not in use.My reference product is the Burley "Nomad". It looks great, but it's pretty expensive (US$350) and I'm not sure how well I'd be able to secure it against theft -- trailers have been stolen from our outdoor bike shelters before. I'd much rather share it with my coho neighbors than stow it in my private storage area.If I find another old kid's trailer, I'll try to convert it (a la https://www.instructables.com/My-reconverted-bike-trailer/) and would be grateful for other bikers' tips on doing that.(I'd love a cargo bike, but parking space is really limited as it is.)#BikeTooter #BikeNitePQ

@universalhub Some of the crowd around the bandstand (not my photo, taken by an acquaintance from a roof across Tremont St). #HandsOff #Boston

#PetPeeve: I hate that "Music" is one of the standard home folders on desktop computers. I love music, but I want it to be "Audio" -- not all audio is music (plus "audio" pairs better with "video"). When was this default established, in #MacOS X 10.0? #WinNT Earlier? (I think NextStep or BeOS might have had a "Sounds" folder.) Now, seemingly every #desktop uses this default: #Windows, #Mac, #FreeDesktop environments (#GNOME, #KDE), are there any exceptions? Like the #DesktopMetaphor itself, we're stuck with it, even though it chafes.#GUI #UserInterface #Legacy #OldManYellsAtCloud#UnreasonableExpectations
