I like to think ActivityPub is a good candidate.


"It's not shit code, it's just acronym driven obfuscation!" -My coworkers, apparently.


The Dell Latitude line has had them for at least 15 years now.


Facebook notoriously doesn't employ native speakers for all the languages the interface supports, so posts in languages they don't staff for have zero oversight.


Okay. Failure to enforce a policy. Still deplorable, but not the same as an open embrace.

Also, back to topic: does FB show (e.g.) Disney ads on posts in languages it doesn't have moderators for?


In my sibling comment, I do point out some sources for English language nastiness as well.

They may not explicitly embrace it, but one could argue their erratic enforcement of the vague "community standards" is itself insufficient, if not simple lip service.


Blog post without any sources that don't link back to the same blog.

Fake news.


I write a lot of ${BASH}


The last thing needed is corrupt governments and billionaire playboys spying on all communication channels under some fake nonsense about protecting children they don't really give a shit about.

Well I am 40 this year and in the best shape of my life. I lost some flexibility in my lower regions but that's because I don't do taekwondo anymore, but instead switched to competitive running, cycling, and triathlon. 30 year old me would have wrecked 20 year old me, when I was in the Army, and 40 year old me can out-run, out-sprint, and out-lift 30 year old me handily.

What's my secret? Staying positive, staying disciplined, and HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY!
