There's something therapeutic about configuring a system to be just the way you want it to be. You feel in total control of your computer. Some software feel like if your boss sat you down at a previous employee's desk with piles of stuff on it and told you "You can use whatever you want here, but keep it organized in the exact same way".

Starting My DeGoogle Journey! 🚀

I’ve decided to move away from Big Tech and focus on privacy. I’m currently loving @ProtonMail, Proton VPN, and Proton Drive—their commitment to privacy is outstanding.

I’m also making a conscious effort to use more EU-based software to avoid reliance on Big Tech and US companies.

Anyone else on this journey? What EU-based tools are you using? 🔒

For those of you not paying attention (because Middle Eastern country, amirite?), Turkey followed the neoliberalism to fascism pipeline (in this case Islamofascism) almost a quarter of a century before the US (with Christofascism/technofascism… Christo-techno fascism?)

Lots to learn here and a glimpse into your future in the US unless you can do something about it. (Hint: appeasement and compliance do not work.)

Here’s a talk I gave at an event in Berlin eight years ago against Erdoğan’s representative and regime. I also haven’t been back to Turkey for eight years. This is not a coincidence.

(İmamoğlu’s people actually invited me to give a talk a few years ago and I asked them if they could guarantee my safety if I flew into Istanbul. Needless to say, the answer was no.)

The new View Transition API and scroll-driven animations are just wonderful. No JavaScript needed.

It's such a shame that Firefox is missing that feature, but anybody using a WebKit-based browser will have the smooth transitions between pages along with images moving into place between pages, and the scrolling animation when scrolling through Upscaler's website.

피아니스트 언드라시 시프가 도널드 트럼프 미국 대통령의 행보를 비판하며 미국 공연 보이콧을 선언했습니다. 홀로코스트를 경험한 유대인 가정에서 태어난 시프는 “이민자 대량 추방을 요구하는 트럼프 대통령의 모습이 2차 세계대전 당시 삶의 터전을 잃고 쫓겨나던 유대인의 고통을 떠올리게 했다”고 말했습니다.

I'm old enough to remember when journals hounded Aaron Swartz to his death over daring to archive papers, and here it is Zuckerberg et al can just... do that and so much more with zero compensation to authors, as long as they promise to only use it to undermine labor rights and synthesize misinformation at scale.

I know it's far from an original thought, but what's the point of copyright, anyway?

i'm soft-deprecating my fedi account. it won't go anywhere, and i'll likely still check it from time to time, but going forward this won't be a great way to reach me

if you want to cause text of your choosing to appear in front of my eyeballs, the best way of making that happen is either email (ecs@d2evs.net) or irc (ecs on libera.chat)
