This is some boss-level forensic accounting demonstrating that Facebook secretly wrote and is shepherding the various "age verification" bills.

Age Verification Lobbying: Dark Money, Model Legislation & Institutional Capture: How corporate lobbying, think tank infrastructure, competing model legislation, and obscured funding networks are shaping age verification policy across 45 states and Congress...

I know 100% that people will argue with me over this, but I miss when movies were professionally lit, when actors were intentionally blocked, and when more than teal, orange and beige were allowed to be on the screen. The medium has something to do with it--film made a lot of these things fundamentally necessary--but I think it's more complex than just that. The last few years' movies are just not pleasant to look at, with very few exceptions, and the change occurred sometime around 2015.

뭐? 무성애 중심적? 아니 세상이 유성애 중심으로 되어있는데 무성애 얘기좀 하면 안됨? 비슷한 예로 남성 직장인들은 같은 팀에 여성 직장인 팀원이 30%만 있어도 과반이라고 생각한다고 합니다. 기득권들의 시선은 대체 뭘까요?

So it turns out the report on Facebook being behind the gigantic sudden push for "age verification" laws was LLM slop. 🤬 old.reddit.com/r/linux/comment

The underlying facts are ~probably~ still true, but the doubt this casts are immensely harmful and delay action.

This is one of the many ways LLMs destroy the ability to trust information: by undermining the credibility of likely well-meaning people who use them.

Hi! I’ve been on the fedi for a while, but I’m more of a lurker than poster (always have been I suppose). I stood up the Akkoma server this account is on to 1.) see if I could and 2.) because I love tech and tinkering with servers and such.

Too early yet for me to decide if I’m going to make this my primary account, but time will tell.

【力神-男士保健品專家特約】有自稱香港公立醫院醫生的人士周四(12日)在內地社交平台小紅書發布一則題為「奇葩收症」的帖文,並上載一張疑為醫管局電子病歷系統的截圖,顯示一名長者病人的病歷及出院安排等資料。

雖然圖片未顯示病人姓名及聯絡電話,但帖文引來不少網民留言批評,質疑其公開病歷資料做法不當。至周五(13日)晚上約11時,該帖文已被刪除。

翻查發帖者過往發文紀錄,其個人簡介自稱為「香港醫生」。去年7月曾上載一張身穿印有「QEH」字樣(伊利沙伯醫院)的醫生袍自拍照,並以簡體字發文稱在醫院工作壓力大,形容「QE真不是人呆的地方,早七晚六不間斷」。

九龍中醫院聯網發言人回覆表示,絕不容許員工,以任何形式洩露病人私隱的行為。聯網會檢視事件,如果發現有員工違反規定,會根據既定人事程序處理,有需要時轉交相關監管機構跟進。發言人又指,聯網非常重視保障病人私隱,所有員工必須嚴格遵守相關規定,以保障病人私隱不受侵犯。

Update: we've decided to go ahead and submit the CFP to @COSCUP 2026. The track will be called Fediverse & Social Web—think FOSDEM's Social Web devroom, but in Taipei. is free to attend, like FOSDEM.

If the track is accepted, would you be interested in coming to Taipei (Aug 8–9) to give a talk?

(Boosts appreciated!)

I swear there’s few things that lift my mood as instantly and effectively as a new piercing. I can be in some deep void of despair and then I go get a new hole and it’s like I’m frolicking in a field all of a sudden

There seem to be two distinct kinds of “chatbot psychosis” happening right now:

1. Becoming delusional about themselves and the world as a result of being glazed nonstop by the friend in their computer, thinking they’re inventing new physics, discovering mystical secrets, etc. and becoming manic.

2. Becoming delusional about what LLMs are capable of and how effective they are, as a result of developing a reliance upon them, and becoming fanatical in their promotion and defense.
