If you have two minutes free right now, call Netflix and leave a comment in support of this programming and ask them to stand up for their shows against political pressure. Phone number is 1-866-952-4456, and I waited less than a minute before a human picked up.

9. With the added pressure of far-right influencers to remove shows for going against their worldview, such shows may have even more difficulty finding placement. This means that there could be less representation for LGBTQ+ families, who make up a significant portion of American life.

1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters. If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire. Subscribe to support our journalism.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch. I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

I know better than to comment on community guidelines stuff, but there is one thing I want to remind folks: we're all here "stealing" compute and storage from Bluesky, so us indie builders have time to figure out how to break away from them in a sustainable way. This has been the plan all along.

Like the reason they don't want to ban Singal is clearly because they're afraid of the consequences of not catering to him + ideplogical blinders about what the site "should" be, but they don't want to *say* that

Have we stopped to consider that all of BlueSky's moderation controversies are better explained by Silicon Valley ideological blinders + knee-jerk reactions to legal threats than a secret plot to push trans users out to make the place more "respectable"

Let's be clear a what's happening here: the "censorship" and "bias" narrative is being extended to Wikipedia bc the far right knows that getting bullshit into LLMs is how to shape reality as "answer engines" replace search engines. Wikipedia is core to that fight so the grievance blitz is here.

"banhos rapidos economizam ate 90L de agua" E QUE TAL DAR UMA SEGURADA EM DATA CENTER, em seus fdp???????????

It’s so annoying that we all have to just continually point out how rules around/between decorum and violation are applied asymmetrically to vulnerable groups versus the people who are always hassling them, and it’s extra insulting that the people in charge are trying to lol it away.

I'm glad Microsoft has joined the BDS boycott against Xbox too

Development files for Super Mario Kart show that the earliest sprite for Koopa Troopa did not have his eyes visible from the back, making him appear like an unknown bald man (left). The eyes were made prominent in the finished version to avoid this (right).

A federal judge in Texas who spent the past three years trying to help conservative groups overturn the FDA's regulation of the abortion drug mifepristone has bowed out of the case.

Wow, the University of Washington's Psych 201 class does *not* play go fuckin Huskies Nazi UW students fuck off

spectober day one - patchouli knowledge #東方Project

Somehow indians got brought up in our class and my teacher went "dont you know they rape?" And now hes talking about how "europe is being ruined cuz immigrant muslims are having more children to occupy there" DUDE WHAT ARE YOU ON ABOUT

insane gif i just found

Saw someone say, “Stop hoarding books, we don’t need paper books anyway” and I can’t express how misguided this is. Online libraries disappear, digital books can be altered, and with Big Tech seeking to destroy history and literacy, print media has never been more essential.

My teacher not complain about "mono parental mothers" supposedly abusing wellfare programs for the billionth time challenge

LibreOffice is completely open source and free by the way! It’s available for Windows, MacOS, and Linux!

You gotta learn to pirate music, I'm begging everyone who can see this, you gotta learn.

Even with aggressive ad/script blockers youtube is becoming less usable every day. It never recommends anything relevant anymore, it keeps trying to sneak in right-wing crap, and it's FLOODED with shitty ai music compilations. We could have nice things if we had less sociopathic rich people...

My new ughh thought is how incredible it would be if they actually allowed human people to like, make radio shows playing copywrite music from their service without a takedown strike - it sucks that people just can't share their taste - but instead nah let's ruin the vibe by having a robot do it.

New Scamelot drawing for fun. Probably my favorite drawing of him that I’ve done. #HELLWARDPEST

Oh yeah. You can swap between gyro and touch controls by pressing R and tapping on the screen, respectively. Previously, in Super Mario 3D All-Stars, handheld mode locked you into touch controls Neither game mentions this even though platforming is 100 times more annoying with touch controls

Disabled people are particularly vulnerable to abuse under fascism. ICE has been neglecting the medical needs of detainees. One disabled immigrant, Rodney Taylor, needs our help. He's a double amputee who's been in the country since he was two years old. He's being held in solitary:

i think someone i kinda look up to doesn't like me but i can't prove it but it just kinda bums me out that it seemingly is the case

The fact a 110k sub smash youtuber feeds transphobia when acting like a hero to the scene for being a weird grifte while defending his pedophile brother can exist and its unpopular to call his bs out is shameful

The people running Bluesky actively hate their users.

I would love to see what that message is, let me go check it.

President Donald Trump highlighted a moment on social media that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) described as the "strangest" part of his meeting at the White House.

Muita gente acha que o filhinho deixou de propagar discurso de ódio quando entrou na faculdade por "doutrinação comunista", mas na verdade ele só saiu do vespeiro odioso e sem diversidade que era o lar onde vivia

Today your voices were heard. We will need to be loud throughout the shutdown and continue to put pressure: No anti-LGBTQ+ provisions in the final negotiated bill. Only clean bills that don't throw trans and queer people under the bus. Kicked butt today y'all. Good work.

It's midnight. We are officially in a government shutdown. No clean CR was passed. Congress moves on to negotiating during what could be a protracted closure. Thank you all for calling to let them know that whatever gets negotiated, anti-LGBTQ provisions cannot be in the final appropriations bill.

you cannot stop the user from downloading the video while simultaneously letting them download the video.

because fundamentally you're trying to keep the user from downloading the video, which is the thing the user needs to do to BE ABLE TO WATCH IT

eventually someone will compile a headless browser in a container that renders into an ffmpeg input buffer. something that cannot be detected as different from a "real" browser, because it IS a real browser.

google doesn't stand a chance. at best they can make this slightly more annoying to do, but that's all

the youtube vs yt-dlp arms race is hilarious, because of how lopsided it is. on the one hand, you've got a company with the GDP of Denmark who has about a manhattan-project's worth of developers they can assign to this. but on the other end, you've got every bored or annoyed javascript hacker.
