#Nitter, every time I've been directed to a tweet in the past couple months over Tor: "Instance has been rate limited. Use another instance or try again later."

It's as if someone who can't afford a high-end home theater system & 4+ streaming subscriptions in the US + whatever other luxeries are in the $50-75k range, they're suffering.

Americans with incomes below $75k are getting the full stimulus ($1400). That's per person. What they consider a struggle range is a quite high bar, no? I wouldn't need a stimulus payment if I made half that much. I don't mean to critisize the stimulus or sound republican, just reflecting how high living standards are.

If #CAPTCHA registrations are killed by robots, then people are pressured to do what they should have done in the 1st place: walk away from CAPTCHAs & stop engaging CAPTCHA-blockaded services.

I hear #hCAPTCHA gives a way to register to avoid #CAPTCHA solving work. Obviously that attacks #privacy, as all each user's activity can be aggregated together. So why not have a cookie exchange program where registered accounts circulate in a pool until they're cut off? Robots could use those cookies too, which is a good thing. If it forces them to stop registrations, even better.

I thought there were only 1 or 2 markdown standards and ton of non-compliant wild implementations. Now I'm realizing that there are at least 5 different standards. I think that actually disturbs me even more. Before making a new standard, why not 1st check if an existing standard is close enough?

Does the world really need 5+ different markdown standards?

After being spoiled on the rich #markdown of #gitea (github-like markdown), I find that markdown on #Diaspora, #WriteFreely / #WriteAs, #Lemmy / #Lenny all have unacceptible limitations. Where can I write a blog, besides using gitea?

If someone pays by credit card for an online order, do vendors normally disclose the customer's email address to the bank (who might then share it with the credit bureaus)? I think my credit report only shows email addresses that I've directly given to banks.

I'm not the only one with #Spamgourmet problems (i'm just the only one on Mastodon with SG issues). https://bbs.spamgourmet.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1845&sid=2db4278d1478dd32d0f0f813fd1480ca
