I've never found Clowns particularly Scary. Even the Ones that are suppose to be Frightening like Pennywise.

In a defeat for #Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp, a Federal Judge has ruled the "exact match" rule for voting registrations will not apply to Tuesday's election. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/414579-georgia-judge-rules-against-kemp-in-exact-match-voting-case

You only need (depending on the time of year) 3-9k in preorder sales to be a NYT bestseller.

By the way, when I sell this dang book to a publisher, whomst would like to help me make that goal? It's entirely doable.

25% of organizations using the public #cloud has suffered data theft. Why are you still allowing employees to risk security by using private Dropbox, Google Drive & OneDrive accounts? There is a solution.

#Firefox #ProTip: Stop videos from autoplaying! (Updated for Firefox 63!)

1. Go to `about:config` and convince it that you know what you're doing.

2. Search for `media.autoplay.default`.

3. Double-click `0` and enter `1` if you want to always block, or `2` if you want to be prompted for every site that tries to autoplay (which can help with some sites that don't work quite right with blocked autoplay.)

4. Enjoy your significantly-more-pleasant browsing experience!

The stickering continues

Apparently one of the big Supermarket Chains of Germany runs #SUSE #Linux - Didn't know but that's cool :D

Honestly, I’m sure part of the reason I’m a disgusting slob is because my grandparents tried to shame me into cleaning by only ever saying how I’m a girl which didn’t seem like a good enough reason to a 5yo and doesn’t seem like one now. ...ofc I still take most responsibility for being a gross slob at my age :v but that’s irrelevant to my rant

Finishing up with my favourite pic from this jaunt, a foreboding pic of the castle amid a cornfield underneath a gathering storm as the winds picked up. Got trapped by the rain exploring this castle, the upper levels of which were inaccessible and the lower level of which was just a giant empty pit.

I was waiting for you

I get a little nervous about dining out alone but that quickly subsided when I witnessed an entire table of four French tourists eating their burgers with a knife and fork.

Dear admin friends, if you do find some altright instances, I hope you'll let us know

EFF supports legislation to create “information fiduciary” rules that would apply to online companies that collect personal data from their customers.

While the devil is in the details, those rules might look something like this. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/10/information-fiduciaries-must-protect-your-data-privacy source: https://twitter.com/eff/status/1058109910133534720

What I need is a gym that is actually a library in peril that needs help moving all the books somewhere else. Don't care what the peril is.

Fake approaching fire? Cosplayers dressed as marauders? An evil capitalist cackling and twirling a mustache? Doesn't matter.

I'd go all the time. And browse pretty heavily when on cool down.
