I keep seeing people trying to play down the payment processor situation, saying it's only the extreme NSFW accounts getting sacked.

Well. One of the cutest SFW furry artist got banned from PayPal. What more proof do y'all need that we need to keep fighting the good fight?

Also go support Nakufin.
I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

NEW VIDEO OUT!

I used to think that my feelings on games looking more unique when I was a kid was mostly nostalgia. Turns out I was just right all along. This is a video about that.
Yes, games really WERE cooler years ago

We need an Onion article that's like the mass shooting one but for helping people by giving them money
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Glad to see that John Carmax remains a piece of shit. I would hate to be surprised by him showing an ounce of personal growth in 32 years.

Given that people are smoking, it would be good for them to have smoking options that were controlled by platforms that understand it's bad to make products that induce children to kill themselves

or Firefox could just stop pushing AI that nobody wants and everyone speaking up about it doesn't want

PayPal HATES IT when you

- Have sex, or
- Use Linux
Soooo... PayPal is banning Asahi Linux users. Hey, can you maybe not do that please?

Yes, they ban Linux users with a GPU name containing the string "Apple M1". Anything else works.

Bumping this as a reminder NYT leans hard on revenue from their puzzles, games, Wirecutter etc to fund their billionaire apologist headlines, contrarian Op-Ed take havers, and iffy/yikes livetweeting style of journo
Alternatives to NY Times Games & Puzzles 🧵

If it bothers you that your passive games subscription and clicks to the NYT Games cartel is funding their awful OpEd army and "journalism," there are a wealth of puzzle/game options less iffy/yikes complicit, and many are direct clones to your NYT faves.

fun discussion:

"at work, your employer can see everything you do on the computer, so never do anything personal"
"wow, that seems like a worker's rights issue"
"why would that be a worker's rights issue, it's company property"
"uhh in germany/eu we have laws against your employer doing that."

Now they didn't say anything in particular about who was and wasnt doxxed, but it's kind of implied that the opposing side doxxed them.

I've been noticing recently, a real scourge of using doxxing to legitimize your shitty opinions.

Let me explain.

I just checked the copy of Windows 98 that I have handy (who doesn't), and the notepad.exe in there is 53,248 bytes. Also it runs perfectly fine on Windows 11. I make no further comment on these facts.
I started up Notepad on my Windows laptop yesterday and it told me that it now has AI. Notepad. The simple little "look at a batch file and edit it" program that should be 200k long. Now with AI. The world has gone crazy.

arts festival president saying "half our grants go back to city in police costs" is beyond infuriating. the police run a protection racket. they are a literal mob, dude
246: folk fest president. Advocating for increased funding for arts. Arts is a necessity. Festivals under threat. Many have folded. We bring in millions of dollars to economy. We bring joy in world of despair. Half of our grants just go back to city in police costs.
