Alright folks, it looks like the #1Password execs aren't budging. Their co-founder is framing critics of DHH as calling him "evil," saying this is "unfair" and creating a chilling environment. This is a nonsense response to critique of a man who has called for ethnic cleansing. https://www.theverge.com/tech/988536/1password-dhh-linux-controversy

1Password users, stop wasting all your energy posting on social media about them sponsoring Omarchy and *contact support*. No one cares about the number of @'s the corporate handle is getting. Support tickets roll up into actionable metrics.

You can email support@1password.com. You will probably get an AI response and need to request to be escalated to a human.

I'm much less upset about the destruction of rare (old, out of print, niche) books by megacorps than I am about the fact that those books can't be digitized by libraries for public access or benefit because the former is legal and the latter is not.

I am especially sending my love to the people of Iran, who have fighting their authoritarian government for so many years and now also must fight US-Israeli weapons in the name of some twisted "liberation." What freedom does a dead child have? These people are not my enemy.

Before going to bed last night, a friend told me they were already hearing bombs dropping (in the Middle East, but not in Iran or Israel). Their flights back to the US got cancelled.

Millions of people who don't want a war dragged into it anyways. I'm praying for the living and mourning the dead.

These "we broke the webpage because you use an ad blocker and we're blaming you for it" notices have been getting very aggressive lately. I've found they can be bypassed by disabling JavaScript, but that can cause other problems. Just gross. https://adguard.com/en/blog/ad-blockers-website-crash-blame.html

*sees news about Mastodon quote posts*

You know, with how long I've been on mailing lists, I'm honestly shocked this was opposed for so long, and not like... demanded post-haste. Maybe the objection was that quotes are only ok if they're bottom-posts?

I don't know that it's compatible to both criticise companies for irresponsibly integrating FOSS into their products without a plan for maintenance or sustainability, and then also turn around and blast them for doing the boring bureaucratic work to make those things more possible

Today I stumbled across a neat FOSS project by Micah Lee (npub1cdq…2x6k), redshiftzero, SaptakS (npub1kx8…97yg) and Yael Grauer‪ (npub1tvd…53xk) to help people get their data out of Twitter called https://cyd.social/

If that speaks to you, they are looking for contributors! https://docs.cyd.social/docs/contributing/contributors

They could also use some donations to support their work! https://opencollective.com/lockdown-systems

If you have not seriously looked into this before, be prepared to discover that this process is bureaucratic, slow, infuriatingly difficult, often requires a job offer in advance, often requires formal education. It favours people with means and is nearly impossible if you are ill or disabled, even if you have family.

In all likelihood, it will be easier to move to another US state than to leave the country.

This is a cool tool for US gardeners: an interactive daily light integral map by month! https://webgis.coe.clemson.edu/storymaps/light-integral-map/

I follow a lot of gardeners in California who are starting seeds now, and as someone up in Seattle I have a knee-jerk reaction of "practically in September??? How???" Well, this is how! Southern California gets more light in September than we do up in Western Washington in July 🤯 gardening group (npub1v5a…ny6w) #gardening

Today is #SevereMEDay, a day to mourn those who have passed away from medical neglect and complications of severe myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and to recognize the struggles of the 25% of ME patients classified as severe. The day was chosen by the 25% ME Group: https://25megroup.org/

I have had severe ME for over a year now. I wrote about my experiences in https://hashman.ca/me-cfs/ MECFS group (npub1gxp…cjhq) ChronicIllness group (npub1er2…nz37)
