Random reminder that when the British started taking control of Middle Eastern countries, they derided the locals for tolerating affection between men and established strict homophobic laws everywhere they ruled.
Now Westerners deride Middle Eastern countries for being less enlightened and gay-friendly than them, even using this to justify wars that kill straight and queer alike in the region.

'sorry, we need to sell your soul in order to stay in business' does not illicit sympathy from me.

an Fb friend explains it this way...
1. Budapest public transport system introduces smartphone-based electronic pass system.
2. System is a total failure. Doesn't encrypt passwords, very easy to break it up.
3. Ethical hacker high school kid breaks it and "purchases" a pass for 1/100 of price.
4. Kid publicizes evidence and suggests this must be fixed a.s.a.p.
5. Public transport company announces that it has filed charges (!) against the kid (!).
6. Police arrest him (not the spokesman or the CEO, alas).
another Fb friend adds...
... and the kid was just trying to help the idiots in charge.
these sites that have that popups telling me how awesome and needy they are, asking me to unblock their ads are predatory and remind me of loan sharks. fuck them and whatever they need from me seeing ads.
hey frens
i am very excited to report that some friends I trust very much are launching a #technoanarchist (!!) project. they need a certain kind of engineer (and they would love to hire a queer cybrewitch if they can). if you know FPGAs and OpenCL, they need you for AI hijinx.
if not, please boost, it would be a big favor.

If you don't *get* web accessibility yet, here is a challenge.
Go on your phone and enable the screen-reader, should be under the accessibility menu.
Now close your eyes and try to do all the things you would normally do. Use your social media apps, check some news sites, do some email, go on mastodon (in apps, in browser). casual stuff.
See if you can do this for a whole evening. Just an evening. No peeking.
Now go back and imagine how what your site/app is like for someone who does it 24/7
I'm going to need this as a business card. Like now. https://mastodon.cloud/media/iv34dEL1Ct-ZXk2QmZg
'laughter's my favorite music
earth is my favorite ride
life is a perfect movie
where you and i collide
yes is my favorite color,
free is my favorite bird
aand wild is my favorite flower
love is my favorite word.'
'yes is my favorite color'
victor wooten's kids singing 'love is my favorite word.'
