JK Rowling has completely lost her mind.

in reply to Deniz Opal

I have a trans daughter, she grew up living the whole Harry Potter thing, it was a bitter pill to swallow when JKR started down the path of hate speech. Fuck JK Rowling, and all who associate with her.


@Tusky I got a bug on the new version 26 beta 1 (pushed to me on google play even though I'm not a beta tester, though I see someone already reported that), where when switching feeds the app crashed.

We launched Tusky 26 Beta but we made a mistake and published it for everyone. So you received it.
Sorry for the inconveniences!!

Wer nach einer hörenswerten Podcast-Folge für den Sonntag sucht, empfehle ich diesen Beitrag mit @arnesemsrott, in dem über sein Buch »Machtübernahme. Was passiert, wenn Rechtsextremisten regieren.

@SunDial79 Habe das Buch in en letzten Tagen gelesen. Gerade die wahrscheinlich und plausibel klingenden Einstiege haben mich tatsächlich beängstigt. Lesenswertes Buch



“Second or third-party data led segmenting and targeting of advertising does not outperform a random sample when it comes to accuracy of reaching the actual target. [..] First party data does do better than the random sample. [..] But, and here’s the real kicker: Contextual ads massively outperform even first party data. And they are much, much cheaper.” mi-3.com.au/26-06-2024/data-de…

This doesn't align with intuition nor with prior research, which makes me extremely suspicious.

It might be true for some pieces of content, but it's hard to define contextual for e.g. a Taylor Swift song or "Game of Thrones", and a lot of content we consume on the internet is exactly of this nature.

in reply to Mikołaj Hołysz

@miki It’s indeed difficult to define. But in essence, you don’t have to match the context of every piece of content ads are shown next to but rather the context of the location. See:

Jaws Discount. Like in past years, Freedom Scientific is offering a 20% discount for upgrading your SMA or Annual license during the time of the ACB and NFB conventions; July 3rd thru 12th. You can call and do it by phone, or do it online. You will just need one of these codes, ACB24 or NFB24. If doing it online, just know that the place you put in the code is on down the page past all of the charges. Here is the link to do it online... support.freedomscientific.com/…. #Jaws #Discount #ACB #NFB #Convention #Blind



Pretty neat! If you're on mastodon.social (or another server running the latest in-development version of Mastodon), you can go to the Explore page eg. mastodon.social/explore/links and view posts that discuss trending news articles (see the "X posts" below the headline link).

A new “continuous sidewalk” in #Kitchener. The design differs from regular sidewalks in that it doesn’t dip down to road level at intersections. It continues at an uninterrupted height. This slows cars turning onto the street + reinforces pedestrian priority through the intersections. Same at the driveways, so you don’t get the up-down “roller coaster effect” when you’re #walking, #cycling or using a wheelchair.

Speaking of that new UI for Warehouse 2.0, here is a sneak peek! Very far from being done of course, but I thought it would be fun to share the current progress.

1) Jsem rád že máte také rád ježky ve městě,
2) trochu vám závidím váš mobil, skvěle fotí,
3) jak je vidět můj mobil fotí na dálku hůře než váš, ale pozice mého ježka je zajímavější a v neposlední řadě také zábavnější, to musíte uznat. Měl takový hlad že vlezl do nádoby s jídlem a možná se zakousl i do ní.😊
4) Můj ježek je z Vršovic.
5) Člověku který má rád ježky nelze přát nic jiného než dobro - a proto přeji vše dobré. 🙂

😇

in reply to Michal Sp

jaj mne nie je čo závidieť naozaj, ježkovia sú fajn jj :) ďakujem.

@Tutanota I tried signing up for a medium account and I got this error. Just sent a request to medium telling the to allow use of a Tuta account (as well as a @protonprivacy account since that didn't work either). Ridiculous that they are blocking you as a provider.
in reply to Studio Cohort

Hi there! Thank you for letting us know. We will also be in contact with Medium to get Tuta accepted.

A few more accent color things landed, e.g. settings illustrations can now follow it, calculator has dropped orange, new dialogs disambiguate suggested/destructive styles, while papers and sysprof properly redraw when accent changes now (and it's all in gnome os, incl. shell finally). So yeah, it's all in a fairly good shape now ^^ (other than blue folders)
