greywash | State of the Migration: On fannish archival catastrophes, and what happens next – First: let me start off by saying that it is very probable that Tumblr will back out of this particular bad idea. They often do. The pattern of fannish archival catastrophes at the hand of corporations almost always has five stages: 1) a sale, or rumored sale, of the platform; 2) falling or nonexistent profits; 3) pressure from (pick at least one) governments, morality warriors, and/or advertisers/other corporate interests; 4) the actual fannish archival catastrophe, caused by a change in the TOS or in the enforcement of the TOS, which itself frequently comes in multiple stages; and 5) a second sale of the platform.

Why I’m done with Chrome – A Few Thoughts on Cryptographic Engineering – A few weeks ago Google shipped an update to Chrome that fundamentally changes the sign-in experience. From now on, every time you log into a Google property (for example, Gmail), Chrome will automatically sign the browser into your Google account for you. It’ll do this without asking, or even explicitly notifying you.

Liverpool and it’s Chinese Children – At the end of the Second World War hundreds of Chinese seamen married to women in Liverpool were forced out of the UK. They left behind them their wives and their children. Few of the women were ever to see their men again. The children grew up never knowing their fathers.

Mixed Britannia – Faculty of Arts and Human Sciences| London South Bank University – Over the past few decades, people and couples from mixed racial backgrounds in Britain have become increasingly visible in the public eye, and there is still a tendency to herald their presence as part of a new multicultural phenomenon – what has been dubbed the rise of 'Beige' or 'Brown Britain.'
Yet, mixed race people and couples have a long presence in Britain, as evidenced not only by the prolific debates about the implications of interracial relationships and 'mulattoes' and 'half-caste' children in the late-eighteenth and early-twentieth centuries but also, as we increasingly see, through their own accounts.
