Here is some REAL FOOTAGE of real people who attempted to MESS with BIRDS:

… And that’s why it riles me up to no end to see corporations like Mozilla Corporation that are not what they say they are getting away with blatantly lying to our faces while very successfully staving off effective regulation for Big Tech, sucking up funding, and acting as honeypots for devs who do really care only to neutralise them with projects they know will not actually threaten the Silicon Valley status quo.

(Also, I suck at stepping away from the keyboard apparently!) :)

And I get it. Everything’s so shit you WANT to believe there are folks out there doing what they say they do… that they’re on your side, fighting Big Tech, protecting your privacy… I get it because – fuck it – I want to believe that. And yes, there are folks like that too… and they’re usually struggling to get by and rarely get any funding or support from anyone…

i think we should start a totally innocent "guillotine sharpening day"

no displays of politics, just appreciators publicly celebrate guillotines and their maintenance together. nothing illegal just a joyous festival for all the family

turns out it is reproducible

@evelyn
I think about this _a lot_.
We need to imagine a better future if we want to achieve it, and probably it is not much about technology, yet technology tends to be the first thought.

#OpenStreetMap has one tile rendering server for all of USA, and that server can no longer keep up with peak US traffic.

If you, or your company,are interested in hosting a rendering node in the US (or elsewhere), please contact us.

the entire concept of a credit score is one of the world's most fucked up and horrific things and the only reason it exists is because people wanted to implement a rigid caste system and this was just the easiest way
