Yeah! you can do it to a youtube video and take a snapshot of that frame if it's paused, or open the thumbnail in a new tab if it hasn't started playing yet

There are sites that block shift-right-click. Fortunately, there are fixes for that.

While it's true that mandatory identity verification will inevitably be leaked on a massive scale, the thing you need to understand when framing these arguments is that a lot of the folks in favour of such measures don't see that as a bad thing. Full de-anonymisation of the Internet is their explicit goal. Like, the actual objective here is for everyone to have a public record of everything they say and do – online or otherwise – linked to their government ID. The universal panopticon is the good ending as far as these people are concerned.

So what's the better way to frame these arguments? Is there one?

prokopetz

If your aim is to persuade, you can't just stop at "your identity and activities will be made public". A lot of the people you're trying to convince don't see that as bad in and of itself, and as far as they're concerned, the fact that you do means you've got something you hide. You need to take it past "your identity and activities will be made public" and hit specific, actionable negative consequences of that disclosure.

Negative consequences such as, for example, identity theft going through the roof

-Identity Theft through the roof

-Kids stealing their [parent/older sibling/aunt/uncle/grandparent/babysitter]'s ID to access inappropriate content online

-Stalker's Paradise!

-Bullies doxxing their targets just got WAY EASIER

-Burglers & Robbers want to know when YOU'VE been planning a vacation! Thanks to Everything You Do Online, including "researching beaches & tourist spots" and "purchasing plane-tickets" being PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE, these nefarious thieves KNOW that they can rob and/or vandalize your house when you're out of town!

-Your Boss can now monitor if you've been searching online for other job-opportunities, researching employment-laws, or googling "how to start a union." Your Boss can punish you for googling things.

I thought he was literally going to make a continent but no. SOMEHOW it's even more impressive than that.

You can see many people doing this if you search for Chinese water marbling 流沙箋 (liúshājiān)

I'm mainly making this comment because a lot of the notes are either wondering if it's AI, or seeming to think this is the only person doing it, and possibly the person who invented it

AS PROMISED!

here is my gay and friendly elephant pattern document! I've included a transcription of the original pattern, a translation of the pattern into modern knitting pattern verbiage, and notes on how I made my patchwork elephant because he's just so cute and I think everyone needs one.

if you find any problems with the pattern or have any questions, my ask box is open! and feel free to tag me in your elephantine creations! i want to see the world full of friendly gay elephants :)

There are 100 million active users on this website! 100 million! Yet, it feels like less than 10% of us are helping survivors of genocide. It is so frustrating, so infuriating, because if more people extend a helping hand, it wouldn't be so alienating and competitive. Every fundraiser would have equitable support. All it takes is a reblog.

But no. The 90% does not want to have a post with a fundraiser on it. And then you have the audacity to complain about them. Why are you angry about it? Annoyed? You know there is an accelerated genocide taking place. You know the US is funding it. You know that aid being withheld, creating a mass famine across Ghazzah!

Please do not be a bystander. Do not look away. You have the power to help. And it is at your fingertips. Talk about Palestine. Boycott, donate, and protest!

Consider helping my dear friend, Suad. She is a computer engineer who has given birth to a baby boy named Khaled last summer! He is one year old, learning how to walk and talk, but he is suffering from allergies, along with intestinal and respiratory infections! She is also caring for her in-laws. Her mother-in-law needs knee replacement surgeries!

GFM has also terminated her fundraiser! If you have donated to her before, kindly request a refund and redirect to the one below! Chuffed is Pro Palestinian, and you can give as little as a dollar!
