(sexual) abuse as a general topic
I wish more people acknowledged the systemic aspects of interpersonal abuse, and talked about how to *address* those on a systemic level, beyond just "consent is important" on an individual level
Like, while it is absolutely true that abusers hold individual responsibility for their actions, all too often that is where the discussion *ends*, and nobody asks "how did we get to this point in the first place and could this have been avoided?"
Google likes to claim it loves the web. Google fucking broke the web.
Cookie notices on every fucking website? They need those because they use Google Analytics or Google Ads.
Recipe sites that go on for fucking days? That’s because Google penalises websites when you leave too quickly, and they can’t show as many ads.
Obviously-bullshit machine-generated “content” designed to entice you to click ads? That’s because Google Search is a monopoly.
I’m so tired of Google.

This. SO MUCH THIS.
It's true for work, but it's quadruply true for personal projects.

I generally can't understand why anyone trusts about 90% of security products on the market. Honestly the bare minimum I expect is a transparent, open source implementation of their protocols. I see that basic lack of engagement with the wider research community as a massive red flag. Bug bounty programs are nice, but too many companies just have them as a check-box item.
Too much of that fear of loosing their special sauce by being open about evolving best practices. Too much security-through-obscurity with extra steps. As if the core robustness of their product is tangential to their market development >.> <.<
Een NV is een naamloze vennootschap. Een BV is een besloten vennootschap.
Maar wat doen we met het woord ‘vennootschap’? Waar ligt de klemtoon: op ‘ven’ (eerste lettergreep) of op ‘noot’ (tweede)?
Zoek het niet op, maar stem spontaan – graag apart voor Nederland 🇳🇱 en België 🇧🇪.
(Je moet een keuze maken want er zijn maar vier opties mogelijk bij een poll, dus ‘Allebei prima’ kon ik niet opnemen.)
Eens kijken of dat soort polls ook op Mastodon werken. Boosts zijn heel welkom. Alvast dank! 🙏

- No alt text (request) = no boost.
- Boosts OK for all boostable posts.
- DMs are open.
- Flirting welcome, but be explicit if you want something out of it!
- The devil doesn't need an advocate; no combative arguing in my mentions.
Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.
