<p>You know what&#39;s super irritating is when you want to ask for advice/assistance on setting up infosec type software but publicly documenting what software you&#39;re using or in what configuration is technically an opsec fail</p>

it's sooooooooo hard to get a tranny to understand that abuse is not normal and that they deserve more than to be abused. it's like they believe that they aren't worthy of love in any way, shape, or form, and must settle for being receptacles of violence that real people want to enact on them. especially because most of them have a lifetime of experiences being told that they're evil and selfish for having any sense of self at all and need to shut up and be good little trannies who never make any problems for others but the hardest part, i think, is trying to get the dolls to understand that the love they get from others is actually abuse, because most of us are so starved of positive attention that we'll accept nearly everything uncritically

Bartender is great, and I think nerds will still find a use for it, but Apple’s gotta have a better solution built in.

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> Yes, and that&#39;s one of my primary problems with the typical advice of &quot;don&#39;t obey in advance&quot; (often from the same folks who tell you to pick your battles, but I digress).</p><p>Given that, my point is twofold: (1) there&#39;s a meaningful difference *for most people* between &quot;my tech won&#39;t allow me to do this at all&quot; and &quot;I can do this, but there&#39;s a nonzero chance people with guns will show up,&quot; and (2) recognizing where we have preemptively obeyed is still a useful analysis, if incomplete.</p>
