By awakening, you acknowledge understanding the conditions set forth by the license holder as detailed in your DNA. If you do not accept these conditions you must immediately go back to sleep.

This picture was taken at the G7 meeting today

I've never seen the phrase "listen up you little shit" rendered quite so perfectly as a facial expression

Some stuff happened and being awake isn't that bad anymore. ☺️

Police broke into Chelsea Manning's home with guns drawn last week during a 'wellness check' after she posted, then quickly deleted, seemingly suicidal tweets. She provided us with security footage of the armed raid.

Luckily she wasn't home at the time and she's safe. Here is the video and more info: https://theintercept.com/2018/06/05/chelsea-manning-video-twitter-police-mental-health/

Protip:

When designing a user interface, imagine some old woman using it, say Margaret Hamilton, and she's clicking your app's buttons and saying to you, as old people do,

"Young whippersnapper, when I was your age, I sent 24 people to the ACTUAL MOON with my software in 4K of RAM and here I am clicking your button and it takes ten seconds to load a 50 megabyte video ad and then it crashes

I'm not even ANGRY with you, I'm just disappointed."

So Bavaria already got its police law, which came into effect in parallel to the GDPR and basically transformed the bavarian police into a secret service.

This is literally the first time something like this exists in Germany since the GeStaPo (Hitlers secret police).

Lower Saxony and NRW (where I live) are coming next.

Police will be able to banish people from inner cities, forcibly put GPS bracelets on and even detain them - on nothing more than "I had a hunch".

Not gonna take this shit.

I dread the day that silicon valley 'discovers' the fediverse and it starts getting popular in a Big way.

the day that happens is the day that VC money starts pouring into startups that will try to 'develop' (ie systematically colonize, commercialize, and exploit) the fediverse, which is, as of today, one of the few non-capitalist (as in non-commercialized) spaces left on the internet.

how do we prevent this from happening? how do we make it impossible for this to happen in the first place?

Who's ready for the most indescribable video I've ever seen

I just sat there with my mouth open for ten entire minutes

"The premise that regulations come at the expense of economic activity is so pervasive that even the American left tends to accept it, defending regulations as necessary evils to promote other social goods. Yet there has never been strong evidence that these trade-offs actually exist."

"To fall within the remit of the #GDPR , the processing has to be part of an “enterprise”. Article 4(18) of the Regulation defines this as any legal entity that’s engaged in economic activity."

Could people fuck off about GDPR applying to random individuals now?

Today I learned two things:

1) The native americans who helped the initial English settlers at Plymouth were members of the Wampanoag tribe.

2) The Wampanoag tribe wasn't given federal recognition as a sovereign tribe until /2007/.

You know the fascist incel types scream about survival of the fittest until they get sexually selected against for being unfit partners 🤷‍♀️

I keep asking around for a decent GDPR consultant

Everyone I've asked said they know a great one but none of them'll give me their phone number

another good one I've heard:

He's making a list

He's checking it twice

He's gonna find out who's naughty or nice
