@lanodan But autism is still part of the problem and even then, some autistic people are more severe than others.

@ArdainianRight @hachi Things like larger text, subtitles, remappable controls, and color blind support are fine. It goes too far when it destroys the original intent (e.g the game was intended to be very difficult) or makes it stop being a game all together (shit like removing enemies entirely).

@ArdainianRight @hachi It also ruins creativity. Imagine every game having to accommodate towards the blind. That means that every game would be a text-adventure read through a screen reader. You have to cut off at some point.

@xianc78 @hachi Especially in the context of legislation. It's good to be considerate of those with special needs but ADA mandates and the like add costs that smaller businesses might not be able to handle.

@ArdainianRight @hachi Also, it is impossible for society to accommodate for every single disability. You just have to accept the fact that some disable people are unable to do certain things.

@hachi @xianc78 Ableism is objectively good. Being able is objectively superior to being unable. The only people who bitch about "ableism" are useless sacks of shit who celebrate their worthlessness.

I'm sick of hearing trannies bitch about "injustices towards autistic people" when they are actively brainwashing autistic children into sterilizing themselves.

@lanodan Some autistic people are more severe than others (that's why it's called a "spectrum"). In other cases their parents weren't aware or denied their child's autism so they never got the proper treatment, which is clearly the case in people like Chris Chan.

Is Tumblr still planning on joining the Fediverse or did that fell through?

@Ash @RustyCrab Here's the thing though, ActivityPub introduces one question that never existed on Twitter: "what instance should I join". The answer for most ends up being either Mastodon for leftoids, Poast for rightoids, or Misskey.io and Pawoo for the Japanese. Of course people from Poast end up making new accounts once they're balls deep in the culture, but how many people from Mastodon instances end up moving to others and not going back to Twitter, especially when their instance of choice shuts down like FreeCumExtremist and Sleepy.cafe did just now, without warning?

Muddying the waters is the fact that the Fediblock Wall or Rainbow Curtain exists and that a certain segment of fediverse promoters advertise only servers that resemble ResetEra in rulesets. The end result? People join, get banned, go back to Twitter where as long as you're not Kevin MacDonald or posting edgy memes you can get by a lot easier even if only 4 people notice your posts screaming into the void.

Reminder that almost all regulation favors the existing big players in the market and hurts the smaller start ups and those with less capital

Anyone have a link to, or copy of, that early 2000s video edit of Bush's state of the union with him saying stuff like "shut up and die" ? ... way before deep fakes, just a lot-o-editing

Easily one of the stupidest #Fediverse posts I’ve ever seen

The TL;DR is–and I’m not making this up–“block all #Pleroma instances because people can follow you without your permission”
