i don’t use ai in my writing because it capitalizes words, and also because writing is the fun part for me (you do you!)

All Neocities sites are down because Namecheap locked the domain without warning... and with that, taken down a huge part of the indieweb.
Don't use Namecheap, and if you do it's easy to move.
Namecheap's customer service is awful and they are much more expensive than alternatives. Now is the time to leave. or later maybe after you've had a snack is fine, too.
my new religion just dropped and here's My first mortal sin: if I click on a tracking number in a "your order shipped" email and that sends me to your login page? straight to hell for eternity. it's legal to murder you now even.

I would never have guessed how Forgejo is pronounced, even if you gave me a hundred guesses
people named Al that use sans-serif fonts probably struggle a lot these days

show me a man that doesn’t want to be loomed over by his much taller and more successful girl and i’ll show you a boy not worth my time
we got both kinds of nexus, torment and gamers
the dotcom bubble was the best, when companies just crammed the latest fad into their business model it just meant that they made their website all AJAX’y and hired a ruby on rails developer
Honestly curious what people think: how can parents keep their children safe on the internet?
This is many questions, but the more interesting to me aspects are:
as technology exists now, what can a parent do to both provide their child access to the internet while not being negligent to their safety
what could technology do or change to make things safer for kids, and also give parents some peace of mind that this is the case?
