Let's hope this is sufficient to prevent Incidents(tm) #WHY2025

everyone has mental categories of "stuff that is too important to compromise", "stuff that matters but you can bargain about it", and "stuff that doesn't matter that much". it's rare to see different attitudes about "purity" in any meaningful way. people put different beliefs and values in the different categories mostly because of what they think matters (not because of metadiscursive values) and then reason accordingly.

Putting out the call: if you own or have ever seen one of the following children's CD-ROM games, I could use your help with something I'm researching. The English versions were mainly released in southeast Asia.
* Around the World with Willy Wabbit
* Willy Wabbit Math Adventure
* Willy Wabbit Goes Green
I think we all know by now that "if you're not paying, you are the product" is false - because whether you pay or not, you get exploited either way.
So I propose a different phrase: "if you don't own the platform, you are the product".

porn games kicked out of itch, non-porn queer games brought down together as collateral, karada house deleted from instagram… the capitalist puritanism keeps accelerating as christofascism comes out of the closet… being overtly sexual and kinky was always a political act and is now more than ever, the fascists don't really want to eliminate sexualness or sex work, they want it hidden, marginalised, easily abusable outside of public life… it is by horny on main that we build safety and justice. horny on main is an insurrectionary act.

CW request: medical topics, especially COVID
Can everyone please CW their posts about medical topics, particularly COVID?
I have somatic symptom disorder and an anxiety disorder around health. I worry so much about my own health that it makes me sick
I need to be in the right mindset for engaging with medical topics, so I would appreciate it if you could use content warnings for them

Hey OpenStreetMap people! I am looking for a specific tool/service:
- preferably self hostable
- stores a part of the OSM map (the size would be a 100k city)
- allows adding points and other additional data
- has an admin panel for user management
- is easy to use for non technical people
The background is that my dad is a historian and I had this idea to give him a tool that would allow him to create a map of historical places of our city.
I would handle the technical stuff and just give him admin access to edit the map.

Hi. I'm looking for folks and SWers familiar with the really dark shit that happens in the industry (not necessarily even personally, just knowing about the sorts of things that happen). I don't need a blow-by-blow but since I am working on something that could potentially be picked up by horrible people and used as a tool of exploitation, I would like to have conversations ASAP about how to do things NOW such that this is mitigated/entirely prevented.
You can DM me here, or preferably on signal at zkat.1312.
Boosts welcome!
To be fair, part of the procrastination was because I couldn't settle on whether to make a gts-specific subdomain or just 'fedi' or 'social', because migrating subdomains between software isn't trivial, but by this point I've pretty much settled on "I'll probably be happy with GtS anyway", partly because of following its development and partly because of my needs changing
(I didn't, until I started growing them...)
