This plaque stands at École Polytechnique to ensure that the names of these women are never forgotten, and moreover, that we must never ignore or allow others to minimize or deny the violence and death that result - daily - from misogyny in any and all of its manifestations.

Cool season annuals are less diverse than warm season annuals for one simple reason. Flowers prefer to bloom while their favorite pollinators are most active.Gardening (All For Gardening)
lol.
So, way back in the day, when Opera didn't suck, it was my browser of choice. And one day, I got a notification that the new version was available. The version number was 9.01, but it was typo'd in the notification message as "90.1". I screenshotted it because I found the idea of a version number that high to be ludicrous and amusing.

If corporations make more money from the infraction than the fine, they will always choose the infraction.
Regulations and regulators need to make fines an actual deterrent.

Nah that's nonsense. Individual action will never change corporate behavior because the incentives and power structures are all wrong. You don't have the option of buying from the corp that's doing things right because it has no reason to exist.
Only way we're going to get corps to not fuck up the world is through collective action - which basically means government, whether it's in a similar shape to today's states or not.
@Em0nM4stodon
@smolwaffle @x41h If "collective action means government" then the problem is these corporations dictate and sponsor government policy through think tanks, media, non profits, etc.
The fact is the power structure is so broken that the regulators are bought and paid for by the exact same corporations they are supposed to be sanctioning.
Collective action needs to mean people, not government. The government is already bought and paid for by corporations.
If there's one thing from my ~two decades in journalism I still think about with the hatred that burns with the heat of a thousand suns, it's "stalkerware," a kind of phone surveillance used against millions of people around the world
When a documentary crew from my native U.K. reached out to me after reading some of my work investigating these illegal operations, I jumped at the chance to chat with them.
Here's what I've learned in five years reporting on stalkerware.

in reply to 网上邻居 • • •Here's an alt-text description of the image:
The image depicts three figures in elaborate costumes posing in a dimly lit urban alleyway. The alley has weathered brick walls covered in graffiti and posters, and the ground is paved with uneven stones. The figure to the left is wearing a red and white outfit with long pink hair and is holding a gloved hand forward. To the right of them, another figure in a gold outfit with long red hair stands with one leg bent and a hand on the hip. The third figure, positioned further back, is wearing a blue outfit with long blue hair and is kneeling. A bright red sign with Chinese characters is visible above the entrance to a building; the text reads “包餃三香”. Two bicycles are leaning against the wall on the right side of the frame.
