most providers have the option to BYO domain name, usually for a fee, it's a good idea

AP takes down CF Vance apologia, not asserting things that they cannot evidence (that Vance did not have sexual relations with that couch)

This is the journalistic integrity we expect of AP News

It’s also good practice to treat occultism as weirdo fascism.

the coincidence happening over and over is a tad unfortunate

i don’t understand, what’s stopping you from just not posting if you don’t have a contribution? am i missing something?

Email is never stored unencrypted at rest on Proton's servers. But AI prompts, which are likely your entire draft email, do exist unencrypted at rest on their servers. That's what has the privacy nerds screaming.

Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)

Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

 

we appear to be the first to write up the outrage coherently too. much thanks to the illustrious @self
