An under-discussed aspect of the #Bluesky/#Fediverse debate is how #blocks are necessarily public in #ATProto; on #ActivityPub only your instance knows who you are #blocking. It's public knowledge on #bsky! There are even websites that sort users by most #blocked.
"Creating the #web was really an act of desperation, because the situation without it was very difficult when I was working at CERN later. Most of the technology involved in the web, like the #hypertext like the #internet, multi-font text objects had all been designed already. I just had to put them together"
~ Tim Berners-Lee
Your heroes were just in the right place at the right time, you would have done what they did in their place.
#AWS released an AWS #CDK CLI update to enhance security, requiring users with CDK v2.148.1 or earlier to update and re-bootstrap or apply an #IAM policy.
Getting drunk on weekends is inefficient; you should wake up early on weekends and live your life. Do your drinking on weeknights so you can recover from your hangovers while on the clock at #work.
The things you claim are now "pandering to the lefties" were never on your side, to begin with.
If you consider yourself a fan of these things, but you still think the #LGBTQ+ community is too "in your face", or have a problem with #BlackLivesMatter, or want to "take the country back from immigrants", then you're not really a fan at all.
Geek culture isn't suddenly #leftwing... it always was.
You just grew up to be intolerant. You became the villain in the stories you used to love.
If you're upset that there's a black #SpiderMan or a female #Thor, or that Ms. Marvel is #Muslim, or that Captain Marvel was pro- #feminism or any of the other things #rightwing "fans" say is "stealing their childhood" you never got it in the first place.
The stories we grew up with all taught us to value other people and cultures and to treasure the differences between us. Only villains were xenophobic, or sexist, or racist, or totalitarian. I can't understand how anyone can have missed that.
* #StanLee said, "#Racism and #bigotry are among the deadliest social ills plaguing. the world today." If you're bigoted or #racist, you didn't get any of the characters Stan Lee created.
* #StarTrek is about #equality for all genders, races and sexualities. As early as the mid-60s it was taking a #prochoice stance and defending #women's right to choose. (It's also anti-#capitalist and pro-#vegan). If you didn't get that, you didn't get Star Trek.
* #Superman and #WonderWoman (and a whole host of other #superheroes) are #immigrants. The stance of those comics is pro-#immigration and pro-equality and acceptance. If you didn't get that, you didn't get Superman or Wonder Woman.
