Discussion
🔥 New blog post!
My post on two-state dark mode toggles sparked a lot of discussion around what the optimal dark mode toggle design is.
But should you have a (persistent) dark mode toggle *at all*?
I have since been convinced that for most websites, the answer is NO.
I don't support dark mode on any of my websites in the first place. Very few complaints so far. So, dark modes are overrated.
When disabled people's ability to travel abroad is dependent on the discretion of health managers (even if care recipients cover the travel expense of the carers) we know that once again disabled people's rights to a 'normal' life are being compromised.
What is so galling is that this is not a national policy bit rather represents different conclusions in different areas; given the (extra) costs would be covered by care recipients refusal is just spiteful!

If anyone doubts the technical acumen of modern-day kids they haven’t witnessed my 7-year old managing to watch Netflix on our tv even after a total deinstall of the app.
New from 404 Media: the Texas police who used Flock to track a woman who self-administered abortion also used AI to write their report about the whole situation. They used AI to summarize a discussion of “the legal implications of the situation.”

@Caelumtangi Salvador Illa és un crack descatalanitzant Catalunya, amb el permís d'ERC i Comuns.
@spla @Caelumtangi com l’Ayuso et defensa a mort els drets dels no nats i et llença els protocols de la mort amb la covid, el MH fa el mateix amb la catalanitat. Són pastats en el fons.
11 years after the Paris Agreement, @unep concludes that keeping global warming below 1.5°C is now impossible, because global fossil fuel use and emissions kept growing (slowly) instead of going down.
It's now important to stay below 2°C. Once we've reached net zero emissions, we will...

This is dismaying, to say the least. I’ve had a family account for 8 years and an individual account for years before that. I have trusted @1password with So. Much. Personal. Info. I do not want to have to migrate… but I will, if this doesn’t change.

PIR (the .org registry) confirms it suspended the autistici.org domain name out of fear of the US legal threats, arguing it is "legally mandated to suspend it", which is not, IMHO, a given at all (given that PIR doesn't have any contractual relation with autistici directly, the registrar does). this is a very dangerous precedent that confirms a deeply rooted fear that the US essentially controls all of DNS.
if PIR's arguments are left standing, what's to keep the US from applying the same logic to ICANN and suspending an entire TLD?
