    Brian Barrett, "Twitter's Tip Jar Privacy Fiasco Was Entirely Avoidable" https://www.wired.com/story/twitter-tip-jar-privacy-fiasco-entirely-avoidable/

    « In the case of PayPal, payments are made by default through what the company calls the “Goods and Services” workflow, which is designed for items that go in the mail—and therefore have a home address attached to them. »

    1. Twitter's Tip Jar Privacy Fiasco Was Entirely Avoidable
      from Brian Barrett
      Sending its users to PayPal has created all sorts of problems that Twitter should have caught ahead of time.

    @sullybiker Facepalm. Non-inclusive language is not the reason #Ansible does not have enough minority and female users. This can be ascertained by asking how many minorities were turned away from using Ansible because of its non-inclusive language.

    I'm not saying that they should intentionally utilize offending language, or that removing it should not be a priority, but they seem to be focused on a minor part of their perceived problem instead of asking why their userbase looks the way it does.

    #NOAA / #NWS issuing watches and warnings for severe #t-storms across much of #KS and #MO, including Kansas City ( #KCMO and #KCK ), Manhattan, Topeka, Leavenworth, Atkinson, St Joseph … #tornado watches for North Central Kansas across to the KC area … #flood warnings and severe thunderstorm watches in SE Kansas and SW Missouri.

    I only get alerts for a defined area, so places outside of that area may also be affected.

    If you are in #Kansas, #Missouri, or nearby states, pay attention to your weather alert radio’s alerts and your phone’s alerts.

    #Microsoft #Edge and #Apple #Safari issued somewhat evasive answers, but it is expected that Apple will be 100% no on FLoC.

    And before I closed the tab, they revised their estimate again. Now M4.9.

    If this was sports, it would be the 18th hole in a close Nicklaus-Trevino match, most people would yawn, but others are watching intently, trying not to miss the deciding moment.

    Either way, I closed the tab, so I won’t see any more revised estimates of the earthquake’s intensity.

    The estimate has been revised again: now M4.8.

    In just a couple of minutes of time, they’ve changed their estimate twice. I’m not monitoring the page, but I was reading the details and when I came back, the number had changed.

    The one $EMPLOYER IT guy that was really into #DOGEcoin has stopped his near-daily text messages after he sold all his holdings suddenly.

    A few days before, he was confident that DOGE would pass $1.00 and possibly reach $2.00.

    There's a guy on another instance. Young. Assuming the avatar is really his face, I can't see anything wrong.

    But he's an #incel, and proudly announces it ... between saying some horribly female-unfriendly things and then wondering why women don't want him, I can see (part of) the reason why.

    But here's the thing: if you're involuntarily celibate, try to talk to people as friends. Maybe one of them will share what you're doing that prevents you from breaking your celibacy.

    I honestly think that one of the biggest issues that incels have is that they wrap their identity around it and retreat to their incel-only online spaces. If they were willing to change and they talked to women (or men, as the case may be) as friends, someone would give them the information they need.

    Iceloops will have to learn to meet and talk to people in person, but depending on where he lives, he may have to move to a larger area, so there are more people that are compatible.
