Los Angeles Times columnist: The #COVID-19 pandemic has taught us that it is time to treat high-speed Internet access as a utility. http://status.hackerposse.com/url/22641 [www latimes com] He’s right, but we’ve failed to regulate existing utilities strenuously enough. Just changing the words on a form somewhere is not enough. We need tough and thorough oversight of “la… -

Uh oh. #SoCal fires: Silverado Fire near Irvine went from ~10 acres to 4,000 acres, critically burned two firefighters; Blue Ridge Fire near Yorba Linda is 700 acres and moving toward homes. These are both in #Orange County, but Blue Ridge is about to cross into #Los_Angeles and #San_Bernardino Counties near Chino. Evacuations: 20,000 homes ( about 60,000 people ) near the Silv… -

#Matrix sharing their view on decentralized reputation as a spam and abuse prevention tool http://status.hackerposse.com/url/22638 There was a similar document shared on Secure Scuttlebutt ( #SSB ) / #Manyverse a while ago.

Mark agreed with me on that. Said that her current commute isn’t bad—about 45 minutes in each direction—but that’s all set to change in a few months when they wed. -

Mark’s future wife is working 12 hour shifts right now. Not sure if she’s on remote work or driving into the office. If she’s dealing with #SoCal traffic, she could be spending a couple of hours commuting in each direction.
Telling him that they’re going to have to live closer to her job. -

Winter weather advisory across much of #KS and #MO. Snow and "mixed precipitation" in the northern and middle areas, freezing rain in the southern areas.
Expected to start this evening and continue for about 24 hours.
#NOAA / #NWS is sending alerts, but I have not read all of them yet. -

One of the most annoying things for me is that after the #iPad upgraded to #iOS 14.1, there’s a constantly-on, unblockable notification to set up #Apple_Pay. Sorry, #Apple. You got your X hundred dollars. You are not getting any more.
Looking forward to retiring this tablet and closing my AppleID account. -

Or think about this: “Plane Crazy” and “Steamboat Willie” were the first Mickey Mouse films. Both were released in 1928, 92 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_Crazy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steamboat_Willie
Try making your own videos featuring a character that resembles Mickey. Disney will sue you for everything that you and your ancestors and descendants ever owned or will ever own. This should not be. -

Probably the biggest beneficiary of longer copyright terms is Disney Corp. But are their inflated profits worth the loss to society as a whole?
Think about this: “Stairway to Heaven” was released in 1971. In 2020, the last appeal in a copyright lawsuit (alleging plagiarism) was decided. Do we really want people fighting over who has the right to profit from 50 year old works? -

I've heard a rumor that there's some work to get the take-down set aside and the GitHub repo re-enabled.
But regardless of how this goes, it is long past time to start fighting to overturn DMCA and long copyright terms in general. -
