PG&E, a monopoly I have no choice but to use, has dropped support for my web browser because they say it's used by less than 5%(!) of their customers.

@realTuckFrumper Bogus. Criticism of Israel has been categorized singularly as anti-semitism i.e. by definition Israel is permanently uncriticizable.

US Politics 

@LilahTovMoon The only power that man has, as long as he is a private citizen, is the willingness of others to break the law on his behalf. That's it. Break that chain and he is no longer a threat.

@washingtonpost Only Zionist blood counts, all others are just red water.

@realTuckFrumper Working as intended. Once all so-called Palestinians are murdered there can no longer be a Palestine.

What I really want from technology these days is passivity. Physical buttons, and PASSIVITY.

No guessing, no anticipating, no predicting.
No autofill, no autocorrect, no autodrive and PLEASE God no autoplay.

Just be inert until acted upon!

@mattblaze Awww - cryptographers always think they are really good at hiding things.

@mattblaze I like the flowchart: 1. I don't like person Z; 2. Make up something that you declare person Z likes; 3. denounce person Z for liking that thing you made up; 4. Lather, rinse, repeat - go to item 2.

35 major corporations paid their execs MORE than what they paid in federal income taxes between 2018 and 2022.

Each of the companies generated billions of dollars in profit over the same period.

When I say the system is rigged for the rich, this is what I mean.

Once again, for the people in the back: we don't build back doors because there is no way to build a back door that only good guys can walk through, motherfuckers.

Netanyahu and Putin want Trump to win, and Israel's head honcho is working overtime to make it happen.

A fly landed on my monitor and I just spent several minutes trying to shoo it away by moving the mouse cursor at it. I think I need a nap.

Relearning modern HTML, and amazed to find that <a> tags have a "ping" attribute that fire off an async POST to whereever you like when someone follows the link. Explicitly designed for tracking user activity, in browsers since 2011.

According to MDN, Firefox is the only browser that doesn't send them. Not for any noble reason, there's just an 11 year old open bug to finish shipping it and it's not done yet.

(edit: boosting this? Want to learn modern HTML? See rec in hachyderm.io/@danderson/113261)

@McSpocky

I just can’t comprehend the level of arrogance and self-assumed superiority it takes to 1) conceive and write a document that will both destroy a system of gov’t extant for 248 years, and 2) replace it with the level of horror we’ve seen in Project 2025, while also 3) ignoring the grim reality of #ClimateCrisis that has the potential to end us all.

Who the living FUCK do these assholes imagine themselves to be?

348 Million people cannot, must not, be driven like cattle toward a nightmare future by a relatively small handful of power hungry and greed-filled elitists.

This is beyond politics and into the realm of actual societal catastrophe.
