It's even worse than it appears..
I saw a reference to Project Kuiper, thought it was interesting, looked it up on Google, first link was to an Amazon news page. I thought of subscribing to it, but only found a link to an email service. Which led me to another question, I wonder if other tech companies might have RSS feeds for their corporate announcements. Maybe Apple, Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Spotify. I've become inquisitive about this again. PS: I was able to create a feed for this via Google Alerts. 😄#
Despite what Tim Snyder wrote about the obscenity of what Russia is doing with "referendums" -- on NPR today they reported it straight. You can get them to say anything you want. Russia doesn't even control the territory they're claiming as part of Russia! BTW, I finished the Ken Burns special on the Holocaust and the US. The Nazis did something similar with the press. If the US did something to help Jews, they'd run press releases saying "See, the Jews really do run the world, just like we said!" So the US didn't help Jews. And apparently that's not the whole story. There were Nazis in the State Department, at high levels. We also let Nazis emigrate to the US after the war, and turned away Jews -- because the Nazis were anti-Communist. I think we should consider giving back the Statue of Liberty. #
I don't like it when people I follow, who are smart and funny and make a contribution, RT their abusive replies. Puts me in a tough position, I can't tell them to stop and I don't want to unfollow them. Really the only thing to do with people who sent abusive tweets is to downvote them (a new Twitter feature) and then block them. The last thing you want to do is promote them. That will just get you more abuse and it stinks up everyone else's timeline. #

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
