Apparently, Android now requires browsers to have the "Nearby devices" permission just to access a website on your own LAN.
I miss when computers just let you... you know, compute.

Here's why garment factory workers in Bangladesh are striking:
Take a woman working a 12-hour shift in a textile factory in Bangladesh. During her shift she sews more than 150-200 t-shirts for Zara, Levis, Walmart and H&M. Her pay for the entire day? Less than $5.
H&M takes those shirts and sells them to European consumers for more than €20 each. That's over €4,000 in retail value. Generated by her hands. In a single day.
H&M runs massive ad campaigns in Europe talking about "conscious" fashion and "sustainability." But there's nothing sustainable about a system that uses their workers up like a cheap commodity.
This is why Bangladeshi workers are shutting down garment factories all over the country. They aren't just asking for a few extra cents. They are striking for the right to be treated like human beings.

Does your organisation rely on NLnet Labs? If you have budget left this year, please consider using some of it to support our #OpenSource work.
As an independent non-profit foundation, we fund maintenance of our open-source software through support agreements, new development through grants, and research and policy work from our reserves.
Take out a support agreement, sponsor a feature, or make a donation. If someone else manages the budget, please share this with them.

Logging in to my Google Developer account to find out that Arcticons gets removed if I don't remove my donation links...
It gets even more insane:
I have a link to our GitHub repo, which has a donation link.
Now Google says: "remove the donation link from your repo; otherwise, we will remove your app".
How is that level of control even legal??
