Weird story. How can they write this shit with a straight face? There are people walking around every city with leaf blowers kicking up all the dust and particulates and somehow nobody cares about that air pollution?

@mgifford I think I agree with you that this sounds more like a feature of the user agent than the website.
Adding and changing a share target is much easier there and with a bit of clever design it would work with any reachable page or resource, not just those web pages where the authors thought of adding share buttons

The last time I saw my aunt in person, we both tried to shove $100 into the other person’s hands at the same time. It was the same note, and we laughed and exchanged the notes.
I guess the exception to the gifting thing is I could probably have bought her a food gift. Like something really special.
But giving a consumer item would be very weird.
There’s something there around giving moms / aunts jewellery or handbags, maybe, but like ‘I’m going to give you a ticket to this event’ or ‘I am going to give you a random candle or sock’ would probably be met with confusion.
Anyway, American gift giving culture is really confusing to me and I have never once sat down to think ‘I wonder what this person would want!!’

I guess in many cultures it is tacky to give money as a gift In the Chinese culture I know it is tacky to NOT give money Coz how tf are you supposed to guess what anyone really wants? Other than cold hard cash, which everyone wants.Hachyderm.io
#Catima 2.37.0 is out!
This release features a redesigned logo, kindly contributed by il-Luca (github.com/il-Luca) and Aeven-Dev (github.com/aeven-dev).
The redesign was kept very close to the original design from TangentFoxy (github.com/TangentFoxy), to try to not affect people's ability to recognize the app in their app drawer.
Coming soon to an app store near you.

In this clip, i install some APH programs from my childhood! Mathflash, and Talking typer! I had some technical issues, making this take longer than expected! I only used the trial versions, as i don't have a key, however, that dosn't detract from the fun anyways! First, i look at Mathflash. I suck at math, so i got that over with as quickly as possible, inorder to not imbarrass myself.
The second program in the cue was my favorite APH program, Talking Typer! The vertual nightmare of almost every child that used it! I think i can say i have more respect for it than i had 7 years ago! I played some hurry scurry, and failed misserably, yet seemed to have a good time reguardless of that. I also discovered that the go, application, and tools menus work in the trial version on older versions of Windows, compared to my experience on Windows 11, when i left it unregistered. None of the menus showed, leaving me to believe that they updated the program for modern windows at some point. It turns out, they did back in 2020, and they did post about that on there official youtube channel.
You can find it hear.

Privacy Washing is Big Tech's latest strategy to lull you into their sphere.
Don’t fall for Big Techs fake “we care about your privacy” claims.

❌ Destroys trust
❌ Puts your data at risk
❌ Delays real protections

Welcome to the age of "Privacy Washing": Big techs like Google and Microsoft now appear privacy-focused, but this is a facade. What is "Privacy Washing", and why is it happening? We explain below.Tuta
