Yes I said that. Probably twice.

Pick a Card, Any Card
Much hay has been made about the removal and consolidation of the various ports of the old MacBook Pros to the USB-C-only setup of the newly announced MBPs. A ton of it presumes to know what “professionals” use and need, and some has been close, but most of it conflates photography with video professionals, and frankly, I’ve heard so […]

Things You’ve Said
It seems that with the beginning of school we’ve been given the task of educating a sniveling little trash fire named Robert Saunders who wants really badly to be a member of the Montana House of Representatives. His desire is so strong that he’s given up driving his Mercedes out of the garage of his […]

Cut Yourself Some Slack
If you don’t know what Slack is, well, let’s see if I can explain it: It’s a communication tool, allowing for group communications (rooms) and private communications (direct messages) and everything in-between. Communication can be text, emoji, gifs, urls, and files. Everything is searchable and, if you’re on a  paid account, that means EVERYTHING from […]

Better Connections
As most of you know I joined the team at TSI&T about a year ago as the Chief Marketing Officer and I’m also one of the owners of the company now. I’m super excited about what we’re doing, and why we’re doing it, and, after this rather short post, I’m hoping you will be, too. […]

Why not me?
I’m 42, soon to be 43, and I’m HIV-. I’m a gay male in the United State who grew up with the warning that if I had gay sex I would get AIDS and die. It hasn’t happened to me. But why not? Luck. That’s all it can be. I’m not particularly promiscuous, nor am […]

If All Birds Could Fly
Twitter has been both an amazing service and an incredibly frustrating company nearly it’s entire existence. From the beginning when the founders made a service that they knew they liked but somehow didn’t understand, to the point where the company had more Fail Whales than hours of uptime, to when they decided that those who […]

But it warrants further exploration.
Yes, it does. After laying out the basic tenet that the movement toward equality has been hijacked by the current batch of SJW’s, Aristotelis Orginos believes he has found the problem, and the problem is …feminism? Or perhaps just those who call themselves feminist? His article isn’t quite clear, but it starts out unpromising and […]

Inflection
Every so often in human history you have massive changes that affect all of us. These are things like World War II, which was truly a world war, (as opposed to WWI which was just the world of whites, never mind that it was still massive). It’s easy to point to these events and understand […]

A Line in the Sand
I’ve been a fan of John Gruber’s Daring Fireball since it launched, and if you were to rummage through my t-shirt collection, you’d find a rather odd stack of DF t-shirts that basically chronicle the life of the site. When he and the team at Q Branch decided to launch Vesper, a note taking app, […]

And so it begins
We’re just getting started, but it’s now time to get you involved. If you live just east of Helena, from East Helena, Winston, the Silos, all the way to Townsend, and you’re looking for true broadband, we need to chat! Fiber-to-the-Home and gigabit speeds in Montana are not the stuff of dreams any more. We at […]

Benefits Corp – A Status for Our Future
Today I had the opportunity to give testimony in support of Benefit Corporations at the Montana Legislature’s House Committee on Business & Industry. HB 258 is the bill, and the amazing Representative Kathleen Williams is the primary sponsor for this legislation, which was attempted in the 2013 session but didn’t pass as time ran short […]

Visa Will Not Suffer Fools
Gruber was right to focus on this quote: “I don’t know that it will, and I don’t care. As long as Visa suffers.†There’s something that these Cabal-MXC companies need to figure out really quickly, because, just like Apple with every version of iTunes, Visa has Terms of Service that these merchants agree to, and […]

Mysterious Other
Many people have had problems updating their iOS device to iOS 8 because they don’t have enough space. The weird thing is that many of us have plenty of space, except there’s a mysterious padding of yellow marked “Other” that is, well, unknown. This has been going on for quite a while, and after some […]

Going bald
No, I’m not suffering like several of my cousins, but will instead be voluntarily shedding my locks for the unmitigated joy of playing Uncle Fester in Grandstreet Theatre’s upcoming production of Addams’ Family Musical. I hope you will come see it! Post by Grandstreet Theatre.

Oh Rick, you’ve missed again
From Rick Hill on Facebook: One of my liberal Facebook friends asked the other day what it is that conservatives are trying to “conserve?” The answer is that conservatives are seeking to conserve traditional views about faith and family. We seek to conserve property rights including the right to benefit from one’s labor. We seek […]
