Michigan lawmakers are proposing a total porn ban

The "Anticorruption of Public Morals Act" H.B 4938 would prohibit the distribution of "real, animated, digitally generated, written, or auditory" depictions of sexual acts.

Total porn ban proposed by Michigan lawmakers
Some states have moved to require age verification to ensure only adults are watching porn, but no states have outright banned the viewing of pornographic material.

Internal Microsoft people keep asking me why I wrote a .NET Bluesky SDK and when I explain it was mean to support enough to write a bot to troll @sinclairinat0r.com about beans, but it grew out of control their response is "Of course, that doesn't surprise me"

The latest round of /Bluesky is Dying/ discourse reminds me of the most important lesson I learned while jumping from Twitter -> Mastodon -> Mastodon + Bluesky -> Threads -> Bluesky

And that is: the stuff I post doesn't always resonate with others, and blaming the platform doesn't nullify that fact

Ok.

Then let it die.

Because theft is theft.

And even worse if you’re profiting from the crime.

Do you attend tech talks?

I suspect that many of you don't give feedback after attending a talk.

Yes, I'm calling you out, but please take a listen. You may not realize how few responses are received by some speakers!

I hope Bluesky will offer a subscription option. I'll happily pay.

However, I won't tolerate ads when I pay. Or promoted content. Or being boosted myself.

I just want to be the customer, not the product.
