A steam curator named "Woke Ccontent Detector" said the following about our game Kitsune Tails:

"Contains overtly pro-LGBT+ messaging. Features multiple lesbian characters, including the player character. Features lesbian romance."

It's great when a person really understands what we're going for and I thought it was a lovely review and wish more people could read it, even if they did not recommend the game! :wink:

BREAKING!

The Antifa Turtle on #Twitter shared a Twitter API okta leak that shows there is a list of "protected accounts", all of them right wing, who are allowed to break #X Terms Of Services without consequence and includes a list of whitelisted slurs they are allowed to use.

The whistle-blowing Twitter account was suspended by mods shortly after.

helpful fedi tip: whenever you see a post with a CW like “ukpol”, you should mentally read it with the same energy as DankPods saying “pkcell”

@osnews This is at the bottom of the GitHub page for Ladybird. If you've been online in programming circles for about 23 seconds total, you know *exactly* what kind of dog whistle this is.

Pretty clear they only want white males contributing.

For those unaware it looks like there's a new OpenSSH server vulnerability. There's an embargo on what it is but most Linux distros have pushed a fix so doing an upgrade right now is probably a good idea.

Today marks the 55th anniversary of the Stonewall riots. One year earlier, the Stonewall Inn was marketed as “casual" and “crowded on weekends”.

With apologies to my fellow Brits, you have to have this in your head now too.

OK #Linux community, listen up.

MS have done it again and people are looking for a way out.

DON'T TREAT NEWBIES LIKE SHIT.

DON'T ATTACK PEOPLE FOR ASKING QUESTIONS.

DON'T ATTACK PEOPLE FOR HAVING PROBLEMS.

DON'T TELL PEOPLE TO "GOOGLE IT" WHEN THEY COULDN'T POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT TO SEARCH FOR, OR HOW TO INTERPRET THE RESULTS THEY'D FIND.

DON'T BE A DICK.

Me: *goes to veggie/vegan cafe
Me: carefully avoids ordering anything with gochujang or miso paste because it's always cross contaminated to hell with shellfish
My mouth: *starts swelling up anyway*
The feta: *turns out to not actually be feta but some sort of vegan substitute containing miso paste*

I'm fine, but vegans please for the love of god clearly mark when you're using a substitute because loads of your ingredients contain small amounts of shellfish!!!!

Did you know that #XScreenSaver (yes, the collection of screensavers for X11) is available on Android?

And that #Google requires it to have a privacy policy in order to be available in the Play Store?

And that the maintainer chose to crowd-source a privacy policy where every item starts with "Unlike Google"?

It's become a great list of all the privacy violations Google did and still does. And I thought that it's gonna be long, but it's even longer than I imagined.
