Why do you think this has anything to do with the article? No one needs to endulge your bigotry.

genuinely curious as to what makes people think it's okay to publicly engage in behaviour directly linked to a sexual fetish which links to the article as per the grandparent comment. I specified around the kids because furries near me go out of their way to have their parties exactly where kids have their parties. nobody has to respond to me, that's true. nobody has to call me names either yet here you are.

>what makes people think it's okay to publicly engage in behaviour directly linked

Because your the one linking it to your strawman that has nothing to do with the article. Furry art in the article isn't a sexual fetish. Only bigots here are saying all furries and people who like furry art are some scary sex thing. It's an entire broad genre or Art. The article has nothing to do with sex or kinks or any of this hateful crap. It's just a drawing of animal people.

Wanting to generalize your bad opinions to eveyone for no good reason is exactly what bigotry means. It's not an insult just because it describes what your doing.

What is the current go-to unofficial firmware? Mine had extreme but I think that one’s dead?

I'm currently using https://momentum-fw.dev/ Works well, and compiling modules like the epaper hacker tool is easy. https://github.com/i12bp8/TagTinker

Thanks for the suggestion!

It’s definitely a meme if nothing else that the cybersecurity community has a distribution of furries that would not reflect the general population’s.

Is there some study to explain why? Do they feel more safer pretending to be human sized...furry animal?

Yes, is a safety thing, but not directly.

The "missing link" correlating furries (and trans women) with hardcore programming and is autism (and related conditions).

Autistic people tend to be very good at this kind of work, and are also more likely to find the social dynamics of these particular groups welcoming rather than off-putting[1]. You find the same overlap to a lesser degree with competitive Pokemon, LOTR, retro gaming tech, political extremism or other autism-adjacent interests.

[1]Many Autistics trend to feel much more comfortable being in groups where people don't adhere properly to social norms, because it means they're not going to be singled out and ostracized.

Why not? The flipper mascot is already an anthropomorphic dolphin.

It's a reference to the dolphin in Johnny Mnemonic, and more broadly, dolphins were a forced trend of the 90s. Marketing was just as much of a hive mind back then as it is now.

Are you talking about public parks? Furries meet up there because it's free public space available to everyone. I am 1 million times more concerned over what happens in private organizations own buildings or billionaire private islands than I am people socializing in a park in view of literally everyone.

The furries meeting up in public parks are mostly teenagers looking to make friends in real life who usually don't have the money to hang out at bars or other commercial venues. The (mostly American) hate of people existing in public without spending money or some special approved activity is more disturbing than anything. I can't imagine being a young person today trying to go out and be social while a bunch of HN users sneer and insinuate you must be some kind of pedo for existing in a public space. Meanwhile they cheer for their favorite billionaire who literally is.

It isn’t really a meme if it’s true is it?

Note: am not furry, but have worked with several.

the furries near me specifically choose to meet up at a kids playground when there are a million other public spots to choose from. public sexual deviancy has nothing to do with billionaires, trying to drag the conversation away instead of addressing the issue does not do your position any optics favors.
