It launched with Fallout, its own TV show.
…however, Amazon have had to delete the video after viewers pointed out it got almost every detail wrong. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3r77j…
Amazon pulls AI recap from Fallout TV show after it made several mistakes

Ob man das ändern könnte, @grindhold@23.social ?
für den ersten login ist das leider nicht mehr möglich, da es jetzt backends gibts, die teilweise gar kein passwort brauchen.
nachdem du dich einmal erfolgreich eingeloggt hast, sollte sich das system aber merken als welcher user du zuletzt eingeloggt warst und dir wieder ein formulat mit username/password-feldern anzeigen.
hast du das schon probiert?
da sollte es eigentlich immer noch gehen :)
Naja, das geht, zumindest bei mir, solange ich den Browser aktiv/ offen lasse und mich aus und erneut einlogge. Das ist ja aber schon eine seltene Ausnahme, jedenfalls bei mir.
Den Benutzernamen ordnet der PW-Manger immer zu, aber für das PW muss man dann teils zusätzlich in den Optionen des Managers herumklickern. Da geht der Vorteil des Managers bezügl. useability m.M. verloren...
Schade. Aber danke für die schnelle Antwort.
⚠️ Scam alert: if anyone ever asks you to "temporarily change" the email address on your Mastodon account, DO NOT DO THIS.
There is currently a scammer posing as a server admin telling people to temporarily change their Mastodon account's email to an address supplied by the scammer. This is a scam, don't do it.
Real admins will NEVER ask you to do this.
You can see examples of this scam in the thread at ohai.social/@redsad/1157080301…
(Thanks @markwyner for the warning about this! 🙏 )

Note: the update to Gaai which was shortly visible, has been rolled back, so don't search for it. It unfortunately introduced a load of proprietary components, tracking, ads, etc. (dev has been informed, we're hoping for a FOSS build flavor).
This action allowed the update to LaundryNotes to ship, which was just declared OK: if you have this app installed, you need to uninstall and re-install, as the signing key has changed (which caused it to be "quarantined" until clarified).

This is the first I've heard that Alto is going to be a wholly owned subsidiary of Via, which is fantastic news.
Ignore everything after that, it's mostly just some curmudgeon they found in Toronto moaning.

The corridor represents about 25 per cent of the total length of track needed to build the entire Toronto-to-Quebec City network.Jason Magder, Montreal Gazette (Montreal Gazette)
I read the official readout.
In November 2022, the Government of Canada created a Crown corporation, VIA HFR (now Alto), to provide oversight of this project.

It was always tied to VIA Rail. ALWAYS.

3 years ago was just when the Crown corp was registered...
JT announced Alto early this year...
I NEVER THOUGHT 1 segment of it would be produced.
I've inhaled 25+ years of HIGH GLOSS RAIL REPORT FUMES!
There was zero information about land expropriation, etc.
I thought it was a nothing-burger announcement by a guy on his way out...
Even the Montréal-Ottawa segment... I'll believe it when I see it.
FUNNY HOW FRANKIE LEGS NEVER EVEN HAD EXO/REM IN THE CAQ PLATFORM AND HE JUST DID IT.

Ich habe gestern einen Gastbeitrag von Kristina Schröder auf WELT online gelesen. Darin geht es um den Sozialstaat – und um persönliche Assistenz für behinderte Menschen. Und ehrlich gesagt: Er hat mich tief getroffen.
Denn wenn über Assistenz als „nicht mehr tragbare Kosten“ gesprochen wird, dann geht es nicht abstrakt um Haushaltszahlen. Dann geht es um mein Leben.
Assistenz ist für mich kein Luxus. Kein Extra. Kein Wunschkonzert.
Assistenz ist das, was mich morgens aufstehen lässt. Was mir erlaubt zu arbeiten, Verantwortung zu übernehmen, mich einzubringen, selbstbestimmt zu leben.
Ohne Assistenz wäre mein Leben kleiner. Abhängiger. Fremdbestimmt. Vielleicht sogar institutionell verwahrt statt frei.
Ich brauche Assistenz 24 Stunden am Tag, weil Behinderung keinen Feierabend kennt. Weil Notfälle keine Bürozeiten haben. Weil Würde nicht um 22 Uhr endet.
Wenn Politik und Medien darüber diskutieren, ob Menschen wie ich „zu teuer“ sind, dann erzeugt das Angst. Die Angst, dass meine Freiheit an einem Verwaltungsakt hängt. Dass mein Leben jedes Jahr neu infrage gestellt wird. Dass ich mich rechtfertigen muss, warum ich so leben darf wie andere ganz selbstverständlich.
Dabei zeigt die Geschichte etwas anderes:
Stephen Hawking, Helen Keller, viele andere – ihre Leistungen waren nur möglich, weil Assistenz und Unterstützung ihnen Zugang zur Welt gegeben haben. Nicht trotz Assistenz. Sondern wegen ihr.
Ja, Assistenz kostet Geld.
Aber die eigentliche Frage ist: **Was kostet es uns als Gesellschaft, wenn wir anfangen, Menschenwürde zu kürzen?**
Ich bin keine Kostenstelle.
Ich bin ein Mensch.
Und mein Leben ist kein Sparposten.

Unlike classic email servers, #chatmail relays do not store user identities which solely live on end-user devices.There also is no encrypted value on the server like with Proton Mail or Signal. There are only relays, endless federating networks of relays to onboard safely :)

So, given WP is willing to sell all its users down the river for some quick "AI" buzz, what fedi-enabled alternatives exist for human-centric websites? therepository.email/wordpress-…
I know of write.as, plume. They're to ascetic to match the brief. ClassicPress could be an option, provided the WP-ActivityPub add-on works with that.

If Trump threatens to stop all federal funds, including road paving, to reliably conservative Indiana, because it didn't do his political bidding, what makes any other conservative state feel safe the whimsical and demented Don won't do as much or more to it?
The folks along its northern insterstate, its principal cross-state thoroughfare, along the banks of the Ohio River, and those calling Tornado Alley home, should be the first to call out Trump's extortion and harm to their daily lives.
Some worry this might set a precedent.
I hope it does.
Every regime that invades another country, committing countless mass atrocities, should have their foreign assets taken & handed to their victims.
This might get all would-be invaders to think twice.
