Someone's concern for privacy can change throughout the day or at different locations. To keep the metaphor going, they might be fine with the top being open while they're driving, but want it closed when the car is parked.

• Dropped Reddit and Twitter completely. Actually deleted my Reddit account and deleted most of my Twitter history.
• Stopped using Gmail as my primary email.
• Went back to DVD and Blu-Ray for shows and movies I think I might want to rewatch.
• Slowly importing stuff I've posted on various social media to my website.
• Slowly moving stuff off of Google Drive and Dropbox to my local PC and/or Nextcloud.
• Finally set up my Nextcloud server to use object storage so I can use it for auto-uploads without worrying about space.
• Tried out a bunch of different Fediverse platforms.
• Made more of an effort to report bugs instead of just living with them or using something else.
• Deleted Chrome as my secondary browser and installed Vivaldi. (I've been using Firefox as my primary for a while.)

Moving stuff is slow because I don't want to just copy it all over, I want to decide what to keep in the process.

I've gone back to Blu-Ray for some things because I no longer trust streaming sites to keep them available.

^&@% Private equity again...

Political organizing is a great example of something that shouldn't be owned by this kind of firm.

(Followed by every other kind of organization. The concept of treating "business" as a set of interchangeable parts that move money in and out of opaque boxes and not actually focusing on what they do and why is massively broken IMO)

When someone named Kafka says it's the "weirdest"...that says something!

I learned the term "glass cliff" when she was hired.

The rest of the page? Probably. I stopped reading after the comic.

So the $140/year subscription they're already collecting isn't enough for them?

I guess this is as good a reminder as any to look at what I'm actually using Prime for these days.

Same. Thunderbird now has native support for CalDAV and I use DAVx5 to sync it with my Android devices.

I was expecting this to be a half-baked plan to block something using a less-than-half-baked definition that would also cover security updates.

The fact that someone actually thinks explicitly blocking security updates is a good idea is just appalling.

I've been using the Firefox Translations extension that this is probably building on. Also runs entirely in the client.

Having this built into the browser is going to be a great selling point.

It’s unclear what evidence Twitter has that former employees who now work at Meta continue to have access to Twitter intellectual property or trade secrets. Twitter responded to a request for comment with an automated email of a poop emoji.

Or for once the poop emoji is an accurate representation of the "evidence."

Stopped clock and all that.
