Did you know that adding a single layer of old books to your walls can insulate an average home from the terrible reality of the world outside.

So... after almost a decade of failure in the online regulation space, perhaps some legislative navel gazing is finally about to take place...

I encourage every single person negatively affected by the #OnlineSafetyAct to submit evidence here:

https://committees.parliament.uk/work/9955/the-online-safety-act-implementation-and-impact/news/217266/online-safety-act-inquiry-launched-by-committee/

If your freedom of expression, security or privacy has been curtailed in any way, however minor, submit evidence.

That includes people who have been forced to submit data to unregulated third party age verification processors.

That includes people who have had to remove content from their blog or website for fear of censorship and legal harassment by Ofcom - an unelected quango.

That includes people who have felt that their speech or artistic expression has been limited.

I will be submitting evidence as a website/service operator.

@matttutt I'll never stop talking about capitalism's consequences. Naomi Klein shows in The Shock Doctrine how the ruling class uses crises, wars, disasters, collapses to push policies that wouldn't pass otherwise. Disaster capitalism.

Fires are natural, but the scale is not. Monocrops for profit. Fossil fuels for profit. Hollowed out communities. The system turns a natural cycle into a catastrophe.

We keep fighting, naming the system, and building what comes next. Solidarity ✊❤️

if only there was a better way to do this

One's on the bottom, strong is he!
Two's in the middle, carrying Three!
Three's pretending not to be
Three kobolds in a trenchcoat!

I've switched to another symposium for the next talk

The speakers are trying to get to their PowerPoint slides to show them, and it is like seventeen steps of two-factor and Microsoft redirects to websites they don't need (like opening a Copilot tab when they just want PowerPoint)

Microsoft is the WORST

"original sin" is a scam invented by big guilt in order to sell more penance

I’m looking up stuff in 1970s issues of Creative Computing, and getting distracted by Monte Wolverton’s funny and prescient cartoons.

Remember to always implement the BDSM framework in your next session.

The natural evolution of vibe-coding? Frankenware.

You stitch together random pieces of code, skip the architecture, ignore the warnings and forgotten dependencies, apply a little electricity... and then act surprised when it starts screaming.

For thousands of years, we've had the categories of "natural", which is something not made by man, and "artificial", which is something made by man, but now we got a third category where something is made but not by anyone. Ontologically, it's kind of interesting, but it's still gross, like the advent of plastics.

Why does an app need to have a new version every single day? Sort yourself out, man!

If you’re even *considering* buying the new GTA 6 when it comes out, please watch those People Make Games videos on YouTube and make sure you’re aware of how Rockstars union busting has ruined lives and what a bunch of assholes Rockstars bosses are. Ask yourself if it’s worth supporting anti-worker/anti-union behaviour just to play their new crappy game. I don’t think it is. #Rockstar #GTA6
