Hey, did y'all see this?
I saw this when running newpipe. But wait, it gets deeper. I clicked on the details buttons and it said as of today,we have 83 days left until Google rolld out this new requirement for apps inside and outside of the google play store. If any developer disagrees with their new terms and fees, they will be blocked!
I'll share some of the info below:
Looks like they're trying to nuke the remaining privacy and freedoms we have left on the internet.
What to do?
-Get your developer friends to not comply to their new guides
- Sign the open letter on the site and take action by checking out thwir full resources list on their website as well!
To summarize, this is all daunting especially when you feel all alone with unfair and inhumane regulations comming out faster than improvements ut we got this working together!
Share the link with your friends,family and anyone who will listen!
Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.
Also, I wanted to add the wikipage and EFF statements about Keep Android Open Org so people can have a better understanding and more resources because I didn't give enough earlier and I will take that critique.
EFF and F-Droid have led 37 organizations in demanding Google rescind its mandatory Android developer registration policy set to take effect

So cute, I love it!
tom nook is NOT a landlord!!! he is a construction worker! he SELLS you a WHOLE HOUSE! He is not CHARGING YOU however many bells a month to live there! You PURCHASE a HOME that he BUILDS FOR YOU and then you PAY HIM FOR HIS SERVICE. He charges no interest he sets no time limit it is a relationship built on trust. the only penalty you get for not paying off your home is that he won't build more home until you pay him for the first one. A guy that builds you a house wherever you want him to and then charges you for the cost of construction is not a landlord you own the fucking home
He is, however, in the mafia
I finished this long art 🤧
Let go of the idea that diy will inherently look shit. All your clothes are handmade you just don't see the people doing it.
One of the best additions that gets my point across better :)
There's a group that makes clothing with ink stained hands to show each time the fabric was touched with human hands to make the garment. The purpose of the piece is to bring attention to the hidden labor of sewists in the garment industry
ABOUT
This post went from DIY-positive to $300 designer tank tops instantaneously.
c'mon people; you can be a person at a sewing machine, and you can also be a person who sews with dirty hands if that's what you really want.
Sweatier, tireder, more rushed, less well fed people than you have made clothing on sewing machines, you too can make clothing on sewing machines.
I recommend a Brother or a Janome, you can find those at stores like Walmart, and Singer has a really janky reputation for their machines of the last couple decades. If you have the time and are machine oriented and have the good luck to find a vintage Singer (or almost any vintage machine, really), by all means buy and restore that piece, it will treat you right, but Brother or Janome is the way to go. (Also, you don't necessarily NEED a sewing machine, but if you can pull together the funds for one it helps. If all you can manage is a sewing needle and a spool of thread and spending a lot of time hand-sewing for a couple hours a night for weeks on end? Yeah, you can make really good clothing that way too. It just takes longer.)
Other brands for inexpensive but decent quality supplies: John James (needles), Dritz (seam rippers, measuring tapes, chalk sticks), Coats & Clark (thread), Gutermann (slightly more expensive thread), Wrights.
Invest in an iron and figure out a place to throw down a towel and press everything. My sewing got 50% better just by pressing all the seams after I sewed them. It doesn't have to be a big investment, just get the mid-range iron at Walmart instead of the absolute cheapest. If you have shitty tap water, maybe get a jug of distilled water too and keep it by your iron so you don't use the tap water.
Rit is (or was for the longest time) a terrible dye because it tries to be all things to all fibers. Different types of fiber need different types of dye: plant based fibers (cotton, linen) act different with dye than animal based (wools) which act different than synthetic (polyester, nylon, etc). Rit does now sell at least one type of fiber-specific dye! If you can afford it and find it at Michael's or wal-mart, look for dye that says it's specifically for cellulose (plant) or protein (animal) or synthetic (polyester) fibers. If you can't afford fiber-specific dye or can't find it, don't sweat it, lower your expectations a bit and take your time and try and do test pieces if at all possible; you can work through an astonishing amount of problems by adding or subtracting heat, salt, time, labor (standing over it with a big dye-only spoon and stirring endlessly), etc. Craft forums can help guide you here. How do you find out what kind of fiber you're working with? You do a burn test, and craft forums, CraftTube, etc will help you here.
Search out videos on: felled seam, flat felled seam, and french seam. These are different ways of sewing enclosed seams so that your fabric doesn't fray nearly as badly. If you're not confident on these at first, you can also use FrayCheck. It's a glue for the ends of fabric and you can get it at WalMart.
This is all very overwhelming? Start small. Make a skirt. Make a cloak. Make a vest. Make something that's a few pieces of rectangle or a circle stitched together. Decorate it how you want! Write down all the skills you practiced. Did you learn how to do a French seam? Did you learn how to sew on a button? Did you learn how to read a sewing pattern, or what a grainline is, or how to thread your new sewing machine? Write it down! Make a list of all the things you know. Because over time you will realize that you know things, and you will go, hey. That skirt's just a few circles and some sewing and ironing and a lot of lace added onto the edge. I can do that.
And you can. I promise. You can do that.
A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previou
Let’s fucking go
This is HUGE.
1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.
2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.
3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."
4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.
TL;DR Google reeeeeally stepped in it this time.
Additional source and more details below. Absolutely thrilled to say that this is real. And yeah, it's huge.
For all the reasons above AND ALSO because this particular lawsuit is a defamation case
Privacy lawsuits are hard because most privacy laws are super super weak, and there's very rarely a lot of money or enforcement backing privacy laws for...twenty million reasons, really...
But defamation suits? Those have teeth.
(In large part because, at least in some countries and including in the US, defamation laws protect public figures the least - and "public figures" legally includes most if not all politicians, and a hell of a lot of other rich ppl too)
A Munich court ruled Google's AI Overviews are its own words, making it liable for false claims, a decision that, if it holds, could reach e
A German court has ruled that Google can be held directly liable for false claims made by its AI Overviews, a decision that could put a serious legal dent in the whole “the AI made me do it” defense. According to The Next Web, the Regional Court of Munich issued a temporary injunction after Google’s AI Overviews wrongly tied two Munich publishers to scams, subscription traps, and dubious business practices. The court treated those AI-generated summaries as Google’s own statements, not just ordinary search results pointing to third-party pages. That distinction matters. Search engines have traditionally had more protection because they index and link to other people’s content. AI Overviews changes the machinery. Google is not just showing the web anymore. It is summarizing it, rewriting it, and sometimes apparently hallucinating a tiny legal grenade into the results page.

As a Greek, in response to the current controversy about Matt Damon being cast as Odysseus, I'd just like to share that one of the moments that changed my brain chemistry as a kid was reading a novelized version of the Odyssey and coming across the following description of Odysseus when Circe sees him for the first time and thinks he's hot: "his hair curled like a clematis and his eyes were very brown".
So may I present my own casting choice for Odysseus:
Excuse me???
you are right and you should say it.
Is this the face of a man who would put his own infant in front of a plow to avoid going to war?
Absolutely not
You know who would try that shit?
Is this the face of a man who would defy the very gods to get home to his wife?
You know who would defy the gods just to show he could get away with it?
The last thing Penelope's suitors ever see:
ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs
after the hyperprocessed foods, do you take tranquilizers to simulate getting captured by animal control and returned to the wild?
i would settle for melatonin gummies but well. knock yourself out
People are getting excited and pointing out what I've always pointed out, doing what I've always asked: to really look and pay attention.
