If it's lesbian literature, why would it have a "man" page?

There's a chapter called "With an app" in @npub1fdr…lvhs's book, Enshittification.
"The most common tactic used to flout regulation is to break the law with an app and then insist that the law hasn’t been broken at all, because the crime was committed with an app."

But then there would have to be an em dash— which is kind of apropos when talking about AI.

IIRC this actually led to my uncle putting salt on his coffee once. Although in that case it wasn't that the salt and sugar containers looked the same, but that the salt container had "sugar" written on it. It wasn't even a prank, just some incredible carelessness.

Unbelievable. @npub1fdr…lvhs did say that rent-seekers would try to control solar energy, but this is just beyond ridiculous.

I remember seeing a French comedian called Paul Cabannes talking about the time he met the Brazilian president and the French president at the G20 summit, and he wondered how presidents manage to stay sane when they're always surrounded by sycophants. I guess not all of them manage it, and neither do the billionaires.
As @npub1fdr…lvhs says, the billionaires aren't OK.

They mentioned that France has the biggest outdoor advertising company in the world, JCDecaux, and that passing laws that hurt the bottom line of such a big player is touchy. They also mentioned that putting ads in things like bus shelters is initially a good deal for the city, but over time they get less and less value out of it, "like with Uber". Either they are avid @npub1fdr…lvhs readers, or they've reached the same conclusions independently 🙂

Today I went to the library (a different library than my previous thread) to watch a conference about the digital billboards in the city: their effects on human health and biodiversity, the existing laws regulating their use, whether those laws are being enforced, and the political challenges involved. It was organized by an NGO that has been keeping track of environmental hazards in the city for years.

Maybe @npub16ys…sjae would be interested? Or one of his followers, since he does drawing tablet reviews.

LegalEagle just released a video dissecting the legal satire in Helldivers 2, and the real-life absurdities that inspired it. It's all based on that Wilhoit's Law that @npub1fdr…lvhs was talking about a few days ago. They even quote it at the end.

"Then there's their abortion policies, which hold that personhood begins at conception, but ends at birth, and can only be re-established by forming an LLC."
@npub1fdr…lvhs always goes for the jugular.

If you were to rank how gay it is compared to, say, She-Ra, Arcane, The Owl House, and Equestria Girls, where would it fit?

That just got me thinking about Catra from She-Ra.

#PeerTube is making me obsess over torrent ratios again like I'm back in 2006. Next I'll be logging into my orc shaman and poking people on Orkut.
But in all seriousness, it's nice that we can help just by leaving a browser tab open.

The cartoon sound effects are kind of goofy, and the writing could be a little more subtle (aren't lesbians supposed to be bad at flirting? That's what I keep hearing), but it seems like it could be interesting.

"And are you?"
"No, that's where it all falls down, of course."
"Pity," said Arthur with sympathy. "It sounded like quite a good lifestyle otherwise."

I ran a poll on that a couple of months go. Don't know if I worded it well enough, and it's not a huge sample size, but it's there for what it's worth.

According to @npub1fdr…lvhs, this is why these companies are always coming up with schemes to convince everyone that they're on the verge or a massive windfall.

Which of these smartphone OSes do you think is more secure currently? For whatever definition of "secure" feels right to you.
Some options have multiple variants, please vote based on the most secure variant you know of.

Hi floss.social. Just moved in from https://fosstodon.org/@ygor
I'm an #ElectricalEngineer from #Brazil, currently living in #France for many years. I work as a #SoftwareDeveloper, writing proprietary software for #microfluidics (I do wish I could work on #FreeSoftware for a living instead). My favorite programming language is #rustlang, but I use/have used about a dozen other languages, they're alright. I'm also a fan of #animation.
