Absolutely disgusting to see regulators forcing universities to tolerate hate. They tip their hand with the level of the fine. This is clearly animosity towards a minority at work.

Of course, but my family don't want to switch from it. If I don't use it, I cannot communicate with them. I can easily give up the other apps.

Now ditched all but WhatsApp. I hate how it's so widely used.

I started dualbooting Ubuntu alongside Windows, and after I thought I wouldn't use it, I now only touch Windows for gaming (Fortnite)

In other news, the Big Bad Wolf has demanded that the Little Pigs install a backdoor that he has the keys to, to keep them safe.

Just make sure you do so with an adblocker (even better one that blocks trackers too, like uBlock Origin) so it limits the amount of data they can collect about you and sell!

I only started using Bookshop.org recently but it's the only thing I'll use from now on, especially for Christmas and birthdays! Will be recommending it to everyone.
Bookshop: Buy books online. Support local bookstores.
An online bookstore that financially supports local independent bookstores and gives back to the book community.

Nice, I was manually adding them to a moderation list as they followed me but I knew there had to be a better way!

Hot take: I really don't want ultra-crisp, long-form videos on Bluesky. I want mostly text and links to articles and other media, and at a push, a short video. If I wanted to watch a long video, in high quality, I'd watch it on YouTube. Nothing that an embed couldn't do.

Suddenly my interest in learning JavaScript has plummeted off a cliff

I watched an interesting video about it today - definitely worth a watch. The key takeaway is *don't do it*.

Can't wait to start buying my eBooks there - a true competitor to Amazon has been long overdue.

This just shows how manufactured the outrage, hatred, and transphobia is - if the world today is more hateful than it was in the 1950s, that's the sign of a deeply unhealthy, regressive society
