Wonder if they spiked after the recent debate as well
As Jamie Zawinski put it, it’s like a non-profit animal shelter setting up a sideline selling kitten meat to satisfy demands for hockey-stick growth. If somebody castigates them for it, they can point out that the demand for kitten deli slices didn’t going to go away, and if they didn’t sell them, someone else would step in and do it less humanely.
They missed a trick by using paint, when a spray of salt water would have done the job at one more subtly and more permanently
And if an app like Signal bypasses blocks, having it installed could become a crime.
In Europe, that’s July and/or August, depending on the country
What will happen to the Steam Deck? Will they discontinue it and support for existing units, or replace the OS with Windows (causing degraded performance and exposing their users to Microsoft adtech enshittification)? The Steam Deck is a star product of theirs, which hopefully will count for something.
It was, but then they cut the woods down.
Given that they have a native, non-Electron iOS version, it’s a shame that they haven’t built a desktop macOS version using mostly the same code. (To make it look like a proper Mac app, they’d need different UI code, though even without that, they could build a version that looks like the iPad version with no changes, and it would look no worse than the Electron web-app UI and run an order of magnitude more efficiently.)
Also, the Yarra River in Melbourne, named by settlers after the Wurundjeri word for river or rapids. Their actual name for that particular river was Birrarung.
If you can get a reference to Taylor Swift into a headline, it probably multiplies your clicks by a few orders of magnitude, so journalists and/or editors are getting increasingly shameless.

Thailand comes from adding the Germanic -land suffix to the demonym Thai, a common pattern for non-Indo-European places. There’s also Swaziland and Somaliland (though there is also a Somalia).
People from Iceland are only called Icelandic because “Icish” would sound a bit silly.
Motonormativity wears the skin of its victims as a trophy
Needs a few earlier movements, including Art Deco/jazz moderne, Bauhaus and midcentury modern/googie
By that token, David Bowie was homophobic, which is somewhat hard to believe.
If you’re cishet in the fediverse, keep that shit to yourself. Nobody wants to hear about your gender reveal party.
Leave it at home and, if you need a phone, take a burner that doesn’t have your personal data and isn’t logged into any of your accounts.
When you hate liberalism so much that the Chinese Communist Party starts looking pretty good.
Maybe some of Europe’s surfeit of demo coders had to make their money somehow, and one of them persuaded a pharmacy that paying them to make them a sign with graphics that spin in eyecatching ways would be a good idea, and the rest was history?
