good morning :)

Perpetually terrified that we're moving into a world where everyone is doing "webauthn" but in horrible proprietary vendor-specific ways which effectively shut out people from non-corporate platforms in the name of "security"

I had dropped it in water, which destroyed the usb entry, so it couldn't charge anymore.
I ordered a new usb entry, took the phone apart, took out the damaged thing, put in the new one, assembled the phone, and it's working again!
They advertise that it's made to repair and it really is.
I am so amazed by this.
I don't know what I would have done if this was a normal phone, get it to a repair shop? get it recycled and buy a new one?

Normalize asking your Dominant how much research they’ve done into safety and proper technique before agreeing to let them do a potentially dangerous kink with you.

They wanna choke you? Make sure they know how not to give you brain damage before they try it. They wanna tie you up? Make sure they understand blood circulation and how to avoid causing fucking necrosis. They wanna beat you up? Make sure they know where your kidneys are, and other spots to avoid.

Oh and uh, normalize prenegotiation!!!

warum werden läden in den innenstäden eigentlich nicht von straßenbahnen beliefert?

the replacement of "No" with "Ask me later" or "Remind me later" or "Schedule in 8hrs" in software UX is something I will never stop grumbling about

F-Droid is a free open source app store for Android devices which only includes privacy-friendly FOSS apps. You can follow at:

➡️ @fdroidorg

The F-Droid app store can be installed from the official site at https://f-droid.org

Google Play has been removing Fediverse apps recently, seemingly without explanation. It is really important that we have independent and accountable alternatives like F-Droid.

Things autism research could be about:

- How does autism radar work?
- Do we have an easier time communucating with other autistics because our ways of communication are similar, or because we've all had to learn to accomodate the people we're talking to?
- What can be done to prevent and treat autistic burnout?
- What even *is* autistic burnout exactly?
- What effects does masking have on your mental health?
- What autistic traits are actually traits of autism, and which ones are trauma responses?
- How is a non-traumatized autistic brain work?
- How can we better accomodate autistic people?

What autism research is about:
- How do we make the autistic people stop existing?
