Wait, why do I see a picture of a shittily managed network stack instead of the comic?

Because licensing is complicated and likely they are not the sole owners of all technology involved in doing so and there’s no perceived benefit for them to do that unless they feel like they can make money on it somehow.

When this happens, I make as much noise as possible to make it obvious to whoever they’re speaking with that the person is talking to them in a bathroom.

You think that Moses personally knew all the Jews? That’s racist :P

Regardless of the politics surrounding abortion, Facebook chat never claims to be encrypted nor secure. Users should be aware that their chats are available in this capacity and should also be aware that platforms like Signal exist which are encrypted and secure.

The worst bosses I’ve ever had were highly technical people put into those roles because they were perceived to be the best with those skills. There was repeatedly little-to-no regard for their soft skills and working for those people was miserable.

Things come and go in cycles. There was a time when Fark, Digg, MySpace, LiveJournal, etc. were all a big thing and then they slowly went away or declined as something new arose in its place. I think a lot of the more tech-savvy users of Reddit will migrate to various fediverse instances and that you’ll see other microblogging platforms arise to fill the void of Twitter, a la Bluesky. You’ll still have somewhere to go, it just may not be the place you were used to going to.

Knee-jerk reaction: I want to know why municipally-supported telecom monopolies are still a thing… hmm??

Ghost of Tsushima has a very great soundtrack.

I also really appreciate all of the sea shanties in the various Assassin’s Creed entries, but especially Black Flag
