So I apparently have a small documentary about Drievliet, a Dutch theme park... from 1951. No idea where it came from. Should probably figure out a place to upload it?

The Pixel/Samsung phone vuln issue demonstrates why having to wait for a vendor to decide to fix a product you notionally own sucks for security. Both yours individually and collectively.

it actually fucking rocks to communicate the limits of your expertise and invite people who know stuff better than you to correct you/explain stuff better than you and idk why* people have such a hard time with that.
*(I do know why lol)
Anyone want a copy of the GovCon talk that Palantir tried to remove from the internet, that shows their creepy-ass surveillance software?

#Trans friends, I was thinking about our diverse stories, and found myself wondering about the age you knew you were trans (whether you had language to describe it or not)?
I didn't know until my late 40s. Earlier, I knew I was different, but not really in what way.
When did you know?
Please boost for reach, let's get a big sample size!

hey folks? fix your fuckin' email parsers. the only way to validate an email address is to send email to it, and i promise that .codes is a real domain.

organizing, sabotage, meta?
Probably the most annoying thing in radical organizing is supposed "allies" starting to uncritically argue for buying into a status quo structure or mechanism because "it's easier".
And it's often hard to tell whether it's just naivete, or deliberate sabotage of the organizing effort.
(Thinking of the "fedi and corporations" discourse right now, but it's way more frequently applicable)
