Wake up, developer. We have an OS to burn.

Ah yes, let's disregard centuries of occupation accompanied by brutal exploitation of the local population, dismantling and dismemberment of native social hierarchy and 'population transfer' for the benefit of the few white man and their collaborators. But hey, they built churches and trains and shit! Let's conveniently forget how countries that barely got their independence had their chance at economical and political sovereignty hijacked from the same colonial masters now dressed in business suit.

Just go fuck yourself.

That's even worse. I bet there are tons of false positives and people facing consequences at job for bad reviews Glassdoor thinks they wrote.

I suspect something involving law enforcement or legal. Still would love if LW admins updated on this.

Sigh. At least the benefits of federation include being free to move into other instances while LW can pull stuff like this (probably because they get the heat from being the largest instance).

Ah, the 4chan method of engagement, right?

The same used to be said for Internet Explorer in the 90s.

Whoever made the decision to bind Ctrl-Q (something right next to Ctrl-W) as Quit/Close Window needs to be shot.

I always thought incorporating a drawing into legit character encoding is not a good idea.

Seeing how the gun emoji was rebranded into a water gun, I won't be surprised if same process is attempted anywhere in the world.

I'm also against blocking proxies, but we the privacy minded folks are a minority that actually uses vpn or tor for everyday internet browsing. There are lots of bots and malicious actors using our resources to spam large instances, and if I were managing a popular fediverse instance, I too would have been forced to consider blocking vpn/tor, even if I didn't want it.
