This comes as no surprise. It’s what happens when you built a social network for the profit, not the people. It needs to stop and people need good alternatives.

@rachel I may be able to see around the bend to read the road but not necessarily see the surface at any distance in the dark. I do agree that we should be responsible for our safety but not that all hazards are always avoidable. That would denote all road damage to a mere inconvenience.
@rachel I would disagree with the generalisation. I can’t adjust to a condition I cannot see and it’s impractical to tip-toe around every unfamiliar bend.
@rachel Where I live there are country roads with no lighting. Some road surfaces have broken up so badly on bends that they’re a genuine and largely unavoidable hazard to the unwary. Let’s not shift responsibility to the riders when it should be with the councils.
@neil I was a software developer (or as we used to call them, ‘computer programmer) in the late 90s. I remember that comment being made about Java.
All your programmes are belong to us. 🙄

@Nonilex He doesn’t want a ceasefire and neither does Hegseth. They want destruction and subjugation. Small men with big weapons.
After this latest iOS update, Apple now want me to verify my age on the basis that “It’d be a shame if something happened to your services…”
Sue is Writing Solarpunk 🌞🌱READERS need to lead the way by moving to retailers other than Amazon:
@bookshop.org has ebooks now.
AUTHORS need to get their books over there too (via @draft2digital.bsky.social ).
I'm already on 4 other retailers (plus print, audio, libraries), but I'm working on getting my books on Bookshop.
