It&#39;s only a difficult read in the sense that the content matter is not pleasant.<br/><br/>Knowing about the business and people behind the technology that has been foisted upon many these days, I find it very hard to justify any use of it with arguments of utility.<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1q0jdp5wv9mjjkf0fxcl093kmzwgen4rd5y0e0gnqhyslfk8h4vaq80x3m8" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Gil Duran</span> (<span class="italic">npub1q0j…x3m8</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/><a href="https://journa.host/@gilduran/117164621946937073">https://journa.host/@gilduran/117164621946937073</a><blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/note1wwkma6hhag0pzqndfu0pfm20ufxnna89jgxlnnpufvyshgmxnxsq2s4hjq" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">note1wwk…4hjq</a></span><br/> </div> We did it!<br/><br/>“The Nerd Reich” is a New York Times Instant Bestseller!

She was one of my cats. Today she left us after a precipitous decline in her health from a kidney infection. She&#39;s young in these pictures but the way she was here was the way she always was: gregarious, joyful, and full of love. (And a little troublemaker.) I could never capture her intense innocence in pictures.<br/><br/>She was champion napper, too.<br/><br/>RIP little kitty. We got almost six years with you. You&#39;ll be missed.<br/><br/>(I posted this on my other account so if you got a dupe, sorry. I&#39;m too tired to make another one.)<br/> <img src="https://fd.discuss.systems/media_attachments/files/113/110/875/003/729/849/original/df7cad4004a1c652.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://fd.discuss.systems/media_attachments/files/113/110/879/425/999/218/original/18a9ca2f211971fb.jpg"> <br/> <img src="https://fd.discuss.systems/media_attachments/files/113/110/907/489/431/194/original/47c42e78c8dbb108.jpg"> <br/> 2024-09-10T02:31:55Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszf8x33qd7t74umzmmh23sk5302e0qs45ykeu7eerum76wwyan89qzyrt72ttrpv4qjm505tx3mflwq0rladrug7tqet90hhrpxvuf5d4n50xc585 I am not looking forward to dealing with a sick cat.
