amberage@eldritch.cafeHow heat works:
16â25°C: nice
26â30°C: too warm
30+°C: danger zone
How the radio thinks heat works:
16â20°C: chilly
21â25°C: good weather
26â30°C: better weather
30+°C while crops wither and people collapse in the streets: "summer is here and the weather is lovely, sunshine all around, not a cloud or raindrop in sight to ruin your day"

danhon@dan.mastohon.comScience fiction is all about a Great Forgetting age where records are lost etc and sometimes it's natural disaster and sometimes it's revolutionary action but in our world it's apparently for tax write-offs

LexYeen@plush.citydear UI/UX designers,
specifically those of you working on touchscreen interfaces,
please look up the condition "dyspraxia" and take 15-30 minutes to consider how living with a motor control disability that affects precision of movement would impact a user of the UI/UX you find yourself working on.

dangillmor@mastodon.socialThe EU has told Apple to stop a few of its most egregiously anti-competitive practices in its control-freak iOS ecosystem.
In a classic example of what I've called "compliance with a raised middle finger," Apple's response is to simply disable applications and features, rather than allow competitors into the walled garden.
It's reminiscent of Microsoft's up-yours "compliance" in the 1990s.
Naturally, Apple's legion of media fanbois is taking the company's side.

"The fact that the EU interior ministers want to exempt police officers, soldiers, intelligence officers and even themselves from chat control scanning proves that they know exactly just how unreliable and dangerous the snooping algorithms are that they want to unleash on us citizens."

OmbreMad has moved
ombremad@eldritch.cafeShow content
In a baffling move, Vrije Universiteit (Amsterdam) is welcoming Hilary Cass, amongst other notorious anti-trans activists. This is especially concerning as their Medical Center, VUMC, is one of the largest trans clinics in the country â a mandatory step to get your HRT and surgeries, with a lot of gatekeeping involved.
All around the country, more than 20 radical trans organisations decided to answer with an open letter, press release and call to action, at the initiative of Principle17, Trans in Eigen Hand and Trans Zorg Nu. As Transfem Haarlem, the organisation I founded, we are also a part of this.
You can help by spreading the word around: friends, families, other LGBT-organisations, and to the media. Even if you're not living in the Netherlands, we need to get the word to spread everywhere, including in international media, as Hilary Cass is an international anti-trans figure, and VU is kinda hoping that it'll go under the radar, with the passive help of Dutch media.

⢠The press release (in Dutch): https://principle17.org/wp/transfobie-en-misinformatie-op-conferentie-vu-belangenorganisaties-luiden-noodklok/
