Dear web developers and admins,
please stop embedding Google's hideous #ReCaptcha into your websites. Its algorithm is faulty, forcing regular users to click dozens or even hundreds of fire hydrants, bicycles, or traffic lights each day. It puts a 'suspicious activity' flag on users who won't obey to Google's business model - such as people who don't sign into Chrome, use anonymity VPNs, or use browser extensions to suppress common tracking mechanisms. Enough is enough. Stop it.

When you tell Democrats their party is a bunch of evil, shameless corporatists: No it's the evil Republicans. Pelosi loves school lunches. Ree!
When you say the same to Republicans: We know.

@verita84 @meowski Federation is the future for anything controversial. I did appreciate Voat, however. I just wish PutItOut would have decided to fundraise before throwing in the towel, but even then, I fear it would have just been a matter of time before he shut down anyway.

Using phone numbers as any kind of security was a mistake. I recall logging into the former owner of my number's facebook account accidentally by sticking the number in as the username and typing in the code they texted me. The only reason tech companies "require" it is so they can later sell it to phone marketers. Anything else is just cope to justify it

Actually github is retarded. If someone has my password they can just login to my github, make a token, then use that to fuck with all my repos

You've heard of password managers now get ready for token managers. I guess because some people are dipshits about security we all gotta suffer with oauth. If this starts requiring a phone number for "extra security" I'm gonna go live in a hole

Debian packaging sucks. Aptly should make it easier; and it does once you figure out all the command, but the documentation is okay but not great and the error messages are absolute fucking garbage.
