Airbnb forced to pay up to $30m for misleadingly charging Australians in US dollars Federal court fines company $15m and orders it to pay up to $15m in compensation for making false or misleading claims to about 70,000 customers

Airbnb board disingenuous fuckers crying crocodile tears? As someone in Canada who has had to go searching to find out if my checkout is CAD$ or USD$ more than once, on various sites, it’s nice to see Airbnb getting fined.

Facebook Destroys Everything: Part 1 - Faine Greenwood In Southeast Asia in the early 2010s, I watched as Facebook began to destroy Myanmar from the inside out. Here's why I'm never using Threads.

Mark Zuckerberg is just as evil as Elon Musk - arguably, worse, considering his willful role in enabling genocide and his continuing refusal to do a damn thing about it.

Someone in Audible mngmnt, (a cunt), makes the UX ppl ensure that almost every time u switch to the app, it doesn’t show a full screen player, but makes it a bar at the bottom, with a fucking ad above.

Coding go-to music is C418 Minecraft. I often hear the opening track & remember playing Minecraft in 2010. It was in Beta, I knew essentially nothing about it & just began playing. It was a unique gaming experience. Minutes in, strolling around an idyll, and then beautiful, unexpected music. Amazing

Surfing was my life – then Britain’s filthy water left me with an incurable illness | Reuben San... The disease left me debilitated and jobless. What will it take for the water companies to clean up their act, asks surfer Reuben Santer

The Conservatives have turned some things in the UK to shit, so much so it’s making people ill. Where are the pre-Brexit EU clean water laws when you want them? How careful do the directors of water companies feel they need to be under the Conservatives?

Greek leader declines meeting with UK deputy PM after Rishi Sunak’s snub Kyriakos Mitsotakis ‘deeply disappointed’ after Sunak talks cancelled amid Parthenon sculptures row

Sunak, desperate to impress his right wing (like Cameron with #Brexit), is prepared and nasty enough to disrespect the PM of Greece on this indefensible issue, the return of the marbles. What a spineless fucker.

Bluesky passed 2 million users in the last couple of days, and while it's no longer the "Hellthreads and ALF hogs" place of its youth (i.e., in April), it's still done a pretty good job of (mostly) having a welcome and funky vibe. Thanks, folks, for keeping Bluesky weird. Let's keep at it.
