@talon what are your feature requirements from these tools? Just saving txt files in a folder in a browser?
Nothing like a mild cold to totally screw over my timeline. 🤪
@avlcharlie you can disable it in site settings (and allow exceptions as needed) on Cromite. https://github.com/uazo/cromite/releases
Also de-googles the browser in general

There is a counter-campaign to call the payment processors and demand they reverse the censorship, see here for who to call and write https://bsky.app/profile/meltingcomet.com/post/3luqlzgxkz222
A lot of these payment processors are headquartered in California. If you're a vendor that's been discriminated against (for example, if you're an LGBTQ artist whose content has been censored) you can file a civil rights complaint at https://calcivilrights.ca.gov/complaintprocess/
New California state law may also be needed to require large payment processors to accept payments for any legal business, similar to how a utility or railroad have to serve everyone. Talk to your state legislators. 4/
@munin Fair 😅 I could send you a link of the specific vibe next time I come across it if you'd like.
@munin I worry that this trend is also boosting typical racist rhetoric but they say this instead of the N word. It feels like what they really want to say the N word instead. :/

If people want to do something about the itch.io thing, a number of us engineers, artists, and community members are gathering together to plan for and build a real alternative that's genuinely resistant to this kind of censorship in a way centralized platforms with singular payment processor relationships simply can't be
Join us! We need all the help we can get.
I should start jumping everywhere I go instead of fast walking so I can train my acrobatics and agility skill tree. Works for me in videogames so why not 🤷

This UK surveillance thing is a great reminder of why p2p can be helpful.
Though TBH the Mastercard censorship is making me reconsider bitcoin. 😅 Depending on centralized infra puts you at the whims of authoritarians.

Every little website is being pushed onto Facebook thanks to the computer illiterate duckheads in UK Parliament. We'll played MPs, people are much more vulnerable on Facebook you cuckwombles 🤬

open up any program
immediately have to go through a needlessly complicated series of steps to try and disable all of the bullshit
@dan_ballard Maybe both! I was thinking button presses to activate it, followed by finger gesture for mouse control. But it might be more precise to use the touchpad thingie. I need to experiment to really see.

Explicit guidance from my boss that even though persons A and B are best and fastest at doing the task, we're going to use persons A and C and deliver it slower.
This is so that C learns and takes some of the pressure off A and B for later. Person D is queued up to for this later in the year.
We are choosing to deliver software more slowly so we can spread the knowledge out and not burn out two very good engineers. I never thought I'd work in a company like this.
@zagura Saaaame! I love it. It's like everything I'd wanted from tiling window managers.
I caved and ordered an SR08 smart ring. Really want to add air mouse support to it with some custom firmware.

@nasser Yeah can never be too nervous with recovery code :P

@nasser I did something similar with Cordova back in the day. Had automatic rollback and retries since we managed to softlock a few hundred kiosks before we added it :P
@garbados@friend.camp Gotta keep a recorder by your bed. I keep a keychain one so I can record my last words in the event of an accident
