Over six months, we tracked the appearance of child sexual abuse material on X. We found images from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's database, which is considered one of the most highly vetted and which many tech companies block on upload. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/11/t...

Remember how the US fought a war to illegalize owning humans for forced labor, and a whole bunch of the losers decided NOT TO TELL said humans so they could continue extracting from them for YEARS? A #Juneteenth lesson: the US has a long history of not letting human rights get in the way of profit.

The kids these days say “AI” in the same way that people our age say “bullshit” (“you didn’t do that, that’s AI!”) and I think that’s beautiful

Guess what? I’ve been slowly but surely working on a @cyd.social mobile app with support for basically making your Bluesky account ephemeral. It’s not ready yet, but as I test I’m going to start deleting my old posts, reposts, likes, and chats (chat messages in my account, anyway)

Who wants 3D printed whistles to give out in their community? Let’s connect people with 3D printers and people who need whistles in this thread.

You're old. Get glasses, and don't fuck it up. 1. Figure out your ideal computer chair and posture. 2. MEASURE, and TELL your eye doctor the distance from which your eyes should ideally be from your screen. 3. Get proper eyeglasses. 4. Reject the blue blockers if you do color work.

I spent way too long making this Gourdhub home page:

You absolutely should not dismiss the AT Protocol technology that runs this place as boring nerd stuff, because that is the exact technology we are going to need to ensure that usable social media that isn’t controlled by Nazis continues to exist.
