Nyla_Smokeyface,

The fact I actually get this because I’m taking linear algebra right now 😭

Technology, open source software, operating systems, retro technology, furries

Nyla_Smokeyface,

It’s a pretty popular writing software, though you mainly hear about it in writing circles so that might be why you never heard of it.

Nyla_Smokeyface,

I was devastated to learn the creators intended it to be pronounced “jif” like the peanut butter brand

Nyla_Smokeyface,

Fwiw this is about Brave Search, not the Brave Browser

Nyla_Smokeyface,

I also heard that some people detransition after finding out they are nonbinary. One of my high school teachers has a friend who is a trans woman who stopped taking hormones because it changed her body more than she was comfortable with. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are detransitioners who detransition because they realize that medical transitioning wasn’t right for them.

Nyla_Smokeyface,

It makes me so sad that so many detransitioners are being used as “proof” that trans people aren’t valid or that it’s an agenda

Apple already shipped attestation on the web, and we barely noticed (httptoolkit.com)

Apple has deployed a system called Private Access Tokens that allows web servers to verify if a device is legitimate before granting access. This works by having the browser request a signed token from Apple proving the device is approved. While this currently has limited impact due to Safari’s market share, there are concerns...

Nyla_Smokeyface,

It’s pretty shitty for a company to force someone to use a phone app or go to something as vital as a bank just because they won’t let the customer access the website. And there are plenty of reasons why someone wouldn’t be able to go to the bank in person every time they needed to, or at least it’d be extremely inconvenient to (especially for small things like checking your balance or transactions). Not everyone has a phone either.

Change your email provider? Run your own email like people should?

I’ve never deleted my email before but I’m pretty sure that means losing access to your entire inbox that you’ve likely had for years and having to update your contacts, the emails for all the accounts you have under it, etc. And being blocked from the website means you won’t be able to do any of those things through the official website. Does device atteststion prevent you from accessing your email through third party clients?

Also, it’s not exactly easy or practical to host your own email. And for many people that would mean spending money on servers. I read a blog post last year of someone who gave up hosting their own email after 23 years doing so.

Nyla_Smokeyface,

Apple stopped giving their new products the"i" prefix because they weren’t able to trademark it because “you can’t trademark a letter.”

I doubt that they’ll allow Elon Musk to trademark the letter “x”

Nyla_Smokeyface,

I was mortified for a second before I read the description

I finished Killer Frequency today and goddamn was it a fun game.

Basically you’re a radio host in a small town and there is a killer on the lose. The sheriff is dead and phone extensions won’t work so one of the only officers this town has has to go out of town to get help, so now all the 911 calls are being redirected to you and you need to give people advice and guide them to avoid the...

life alert rule (beehaw.org)

Image Description: A meme with a blue background. On the right, there is a photo of an elderly woman laying on the ground with her head raised, as if she had fallen down. On the left, there is a younger man with a stethoscope hanging around his neck writing something on a clipboard. In big word art, the text says “Why flirt?...

Nyla_Smokeyface,

It’s comforting to know that this community is intolerant of transphobia

Nyla_Smokeyface,

“Don’t fuck with Fallout fans. We don’t know what our games are even about.”

Nyla_Smokeyface,

It is the coolest thing to see a major corporation contributing so much to Linux gaming. Linux gaming is more viable than ever and it's amazing!!!
