The Internet Archive now has so many books (including in the pipeline) it's becoming difficult to find unscanned books. If you have a pile of books you're not sure you want to keep around, use this app to scan your books and find out if we want it. help.archive.org/help/donate…

Preserving software by making it live again.
Nice to see the work we've done (@SoftPresNetwork, @KendraSerra, @paufder, @amteitler, Peter Jaszi, me, and more) in the WaPo! Not as clear as it could be, IMO, but no such thing as bad publicity for #copyright potentially creating a digital dark-age. washingtonpost.com/video-gam…

A new favorite project: People from 1970s PARC + PARC-adjacent folks are carefully restoring/gently modernizing the Medley Interlisp system, a Lisp OS that ran on the Xerox D-machines, so that it can run on a modern VM on any OS. interlisp.org/

@FBI needs to question her and subpoena all her phone records!
.@RepBoebert as the mob of domestic terrorists descended on the Capitol: “Madam Speaker, I have *constituents* outside this building right now. I promised my voters to be their voice."

Terrorists ransacked the US Capitol and *hours later* 138-of-202 (68%) House republicans voted to make trump a dictator. Nothing they say about unity is worth a nickel. They tried to finish the rioters’ job and end democracy.

JUST POSTED: Today @realDonaldTrump became a terrorist leader. The Trump-incited attack on the Capitol is an unprecedented act of domestic terrorism. It's the predictable culmination of Trumpism—and the GOP owns it, too. Please read, RT, Like and share. motherjones.com/politics/202…

Join @masinter for a talk on the Medley Interlisp Project, on Tuesday, December 8th. meetup.com/LispNYC/events/vq…
When asked by @jess_mc & @ZerlinaMaxwell if she felt similarly to @AOC about being stifled at times by Democratic leadership, Congresswoman @AyannaPressley got incredibly honest about the overall difficulties of the last two years siriusxm.com/clips/clip/0599…

All of this impotent wishcasting at this point. Obviously, it's not gonna happen because Donald Trump is president and the Republican Party supports him and controls the senate and they very much do not care how many people die. They just don't.

Wikipedia just alerted me that an edit made from my IP address was been reverted by a bot, which was surprising, so I looked into it, and now I need to have a whole new kind of discussion with my children.

Wow, these year-over-year photos. A leading indicator.
The record heat in Siberia has spilled over to Svalbard, Norway, where an all-time record high was set, as well as the all-time record for warmest overnight low temperature. Sea ice vanished by July, and glacial surface melt spiked to a record high. washingtonpost.com/weather/2… 1/2

Usually when we see people in unmarked cars forcibly grab someone off the street we call it kidnapping — what is happening now in Portland should concern everyone in the US. These actions are flat-out unconstitutional and will not go unanswered.
Oregon Public Broadcasting confirms tweets today that federal officers in camouflage but no agency identification or badges, driving unmarked non-government rental cars, are grabbing protestors off streets in Portland and not talking w local authorities opb.org/news/article/federal…

To subvert Trump's evil edict, Im volunteering to teach a course @Stanford in our football stadium "in person" for ALL of our international students. Possible topics: "Irrational ICE Policies" or "Explaining the Erosion of American Democratic Institutions in the Trump Era."
