Mostly following for webcomics and tech / programming stuff. Pluralistic is pretty good, too.

technomancywhenever I hear about people installing millions of lines of code from someone they've never heard of from npm or whatever, I imagine them finding a hot dog on the side of the road
and they're like "oh cool; free hot dog!" and I'm like "you're going to eat that?" and they're like "yeah of course; it's a free hot dog! have to be crazy to turn that down" and I'm like "huh"
mhoyeAbsolutely underappreciated how much Indian Microtutorial Youtube is doing for this world. You go looking for "how to do this extremely specific weird thing with this extremely specific piece of niche software" and there, surrounded by acres of genvoiced slop and garbage double-cropped shorts is one dude with an almost impenetrable Bengali accent, twelve followers and nothing but the love of the game serving up a 47-second video that's exactly and only what you need to know. The real MVPs.
European CommissionAccessibility features don’t just help some people — they make technology better for everyone.
Today, on Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we’re highlighting why accessible design matters.
We are working to make our websites and digital platforms more accessible — following EU-wide accessibility standards, making progress towards becoming fully accessible for all.
Because a more inclusive internet is in everyone’s interest.

saw something delightful earlier
someone had read some books i put in the free stuff area downstairs, and then carefully brought them back to re-lend 💜🥲
they took three books of a trilogy one by one then returned the whole set when finished (and a couple of other things)
it's not a big deal, it is the tiniest of tiny things; i just come from a background where if it isn't bolted down it will be stolen and sold; if it is the bolts will be stolen too, that takes a bit of getting over
i have been trying to consistently add items to the shelf downstairs and some of them come and go (there's no posted obligation to return anything; there are no rules at all)
trying to force myself to put books i liked downstairs instead of hanging onto them and not re-reading them
"i can always get another copy of Ancillary" etc
(non-book items go down there too but usually get claimed within hours so there's less persistence)
