How often do you check your non-personal email (work, school, etc.)? We promise we won't tell your managers/bosses/etc. 😉 📪

So I just had a transphobe try to piggy-back off a recent popular post I made, presumably to gain reach. i have a decent following here on fedi, but am a micro instance. They too were a micro instance. By default, people on micro instances are not easily discoverable other than by interaction, so if you have a following on one, it’s generally because you’ve built it “organically”, as it were.

They presumably thought that by posting transphobic rage bait in response to me, they could get me to reply, and my reply would federate to my followers, and then they’’d be seen.

Instead I just instantly defederated their server with no response.

They are howling into the void, and nobody is there to hear.

This is not Twitter. Just because someone replies to your thread doesn’t mean the rest of the word will see it. This is the achillies heal of bigots here. Most big instances will moderate them into oblivion, so they start micro instances, but unless people actually like what you’re saying, and interact, you simply won’t federate.

And they won’t even know I made this post now. LMAO! LOL!

Yesterday we removed a mod called "Windows Borderless" which was found to contain malware.

⚠️If you are a Windows user and are one of the 372 people who downloaded and used a mod called "Windows Borderless", you are at risk. More info available here: https://blog.modrinth.com/p/windows-borderless-malware-disclosure

IMPORTANT TO NOTE: This mod is called, *exactly*, "Windows Borderless". There are other mods with similar names on Modrinth, which are NOT malware, such as "Borderless Mining", "Borderless", and "Borderless Mining Reworked"

David Tennant: “I remember gay rights being weaponised politically. That always felt ugly & nasty… 30 years later & those people are clearly on the wrong side of history. Now there is a similar weaponisation of these topics… to create friction & conflict & division where it needn’t be. It’s just about people being themselves. You don’t need to be bothered about it. F**k off & let people be”

Truly nuts that these are the last two tweets from a game studio that Microsoft just shut down.

Read from bottom to top.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a report that transforms how the world understands respiratory infections like COVID-19, influenza, and measles.

Motivated by grave missteps in the pandemic, the WHO convened about 50 experts in virology, epidemiology, aerosol science, and bioengineering, among other specialties, who spent 2 years poring through the evidence on how airborne viruses and bacteria spread.

If a respiratory disease spreads through inhalation, it means that people can lower their risk of infection indoors through methods to clean the air, such as mechanical ventilation and using air purifiers, and wearing an N95 mask.

Peg Seminario, an occupational health and safety specialist in Bethesda, Maryland, welcomed the shift after years of resistance from health authorities. "The dogma that droplets are a major mode of transmission is the 'flat Earth' position now," she said. "Hurray! We are finally recognizing that the world is round."

almost hard to believe, after the hundreds of thousands of hours we've all collectively spent building hacky javascript-based popovers

People Are Getting Scammed into Buying Seeds of Non-Existent Cat-Face Flowers Generated by AI.

Scammers are always finding new ways of taking advantage of gullible people, and apparently selling seeds of fake flowers generated by artificial intelligence is one of their latest techniques.

This pretty much sums up the 80's:

80+81+82+83+84+85+86+87+88+89=845

The last one of these was, "Women, what would you do freely if all men disappeared for 24hrs?" The answers were simple things like, "Take a stroll at night alone, with headphones on." "Leave my drink at a bar while I went to pee." And, "Play video games with an unmuted mic."
