„Manche Leute sollten einfach mal die Fresse halten“, sagt das Känguru.
Irritiert schaue ich auf mein Smartphone.
Das Känguru fährt fort: „Was Frau Schröder gesagt hat, ist doch einfach ableistische Kackscheiße!“
Jetzt interveniere ich: "Entschuldige, aber das hier ist nicht der Account von @marcuwekling ! Das ist doch gar nicht dein Platz."
„Frau Schröder sollte auch keinen Platz mehr in den Medien bekommen, ist aber trotzdem da.“
„Touché“, erwidere ich und scrolle auf Mastodon weiter.

I wrote a thing about "AI" (again). Sorry.
I am not a talented person, I’ve never been called “gifted” or anything like that. Anything I can do, anything I achieved took a lot of work and stubbornness to achieve. Don’t get me wrong.tante (Smashing Frames)
“Governments should join the Fediverse!”
IMO, Governments should have websites that work and are regularly updated and should leave social media entirely.
An der Affaire um die verzockte Zahnarzt-Altersvorsorge kann man gut sehen, was eine Aktienrente für die Versicherten früher oder später bedeuten würde.

Should other countries treat Americans the same way America is now treating tourists by taking DNA, fingerprints, mug shots and by going through the past 5 years of their social media?

Climate models & weather models all deal with chance and probability. Most of us (including me) do not understand probability all that well. Can we use checking the #weather, personally, to better understand #ClimateChange?
@WeirdWriter wrote this blistering counterblast to #LLM infiltration into our communities and how it undermines our confidence in our ability to create and do what we love. As well as the joy and care in community rebellion when it can seem hopeless.

Serious Inbox search is a killer feature missing in Tuta. The current requirement to fully offline the inbox to make it searchable is something I find very difficult.
Any research done on zero-knowledge search, or on maintaining an encrypted search index that's updated by the client with incoming mail?
Client API is another thing I'd love to see.
Yesterday was the third anniversary of Raspberry Pi announcing that they'd hired an ex-cop (specifically a Technical Surveillance Officer) as their "Maker-in-residence", and then pissing off a huge segment of their target market by acting completely oblivious as to why that might be a problem.
I missed my calendar reminder about it, so instead you can celebrate the third anniversary of Buzzfeed writing an article about it:

Ich bemerke in der Teamrunde, dass eine Paketstation für Rollstuhlfahrer*innen doof ist, weil man an obere Fächer nicht rankommt.
Einwand: "Es gibt auch Rollstühle mit Lift-Funktion"
Ich: "Joah, das ist keine Barrierefreiheit. Dann brauchen wir auch keine Treppen. Es gibt zusammenklappbare Leitern, die können alle mitschleppen."
Seufz. Das ist manchmal echt frustrierend.
А можна медыя будуць пісаць пра навіны, тое што насамрэч адбылося?!
А не пра прыдумкі, чуткі, аналіз экспертаў (прыдумкі), і думкі ў галаве дыктатараў.
Навошта пісаць навіну якой няма?!

RE: mastodon.social/@dangillmor/11…
people are not making the connection that this is Palantir bullshit. remember when Trump gave them free reign of ICE during their first coup? remember how Biden bent over and did nothing about it?
it’s one thing to announce this bullshit. it’s another to not to, immediately, make the connections.
which, reminds me: start mentioning Palantir, Thiel and his “liberal” poniboi every time y’all mention ICE.

Yup. Millions of people with no basic background or formal understanding of terrorism studies being duped by the ultra-sophisticated tentacled Hamas propaganda machine that mainstream media and global outlets lack resources and integrity to discern and expose. Including terrorist journalists.

#Molly app has a socks5 option but only #Orbot "VPN" mode will work. What if #Arti from @torproject could bind with Molly on socks5 via #Termux?
would be nice to have #systemd like @postmarketOS
*Termux @termux
pkg update (possible to plug in keyboard and display to #android #mobile app)
then proot-distro login --isolated debian
su - user because Arti will complain eventhough phone is not really rooted, change etc/resolv.conf to cloudflare, add dependencies needed for #rust rustup and cargo on #debian #trixie, chmod g-w ~/.config
* #Oniux --> E0560
* Arti --> Linux Scaffolding Log_Connections
* apkeep #EFF eff.org/pages/apkeep --> shared storage path, package manager chokepoint won't install
* network monitoring like Nyx with #tokio-console
In a way, like passwordless root in QubesOS. Some good customizations can be made in Dom0, though, unlike GrapheneOS.

#arti does work on Termux natively without the need for proot. Its not packaged as it is still under active development and we would want to provide such security critical package only when we believe we can do so without any anti-effects.

I am probably getting old, but the idea to cram in lots of events in Brussels the entire week before FOSDEM is not getting my thumbs up. Or well, you can have them but I won't be there.
A regular FOSDEM already wears me out on its own. Being at the European Open Source Awards on the Thursday before FOSDEM is stretching it but I will do it.
Adding *more* events to my agenda that week would probably kill me.
Did I mention I'm old? Leave me alone.
@zipkid In many cases it's just the least-bad option if you want to hold an event and get maximum attendance... the side-events are things that, in all likelihood, just aren't going to attract as many people if they had to travel for that one event.
It is exhausting, no doubt. I mostly got off the travel train in 2018... I do miss seeing people in person sometimes, but I do not miss the flights, hotels, etc. Major kudos to confs that do a good job putting up streaming sessions and videos shortly after the event. FOSDEM in particular is excellent about this.
source: have planned post/pre-FOSDEM events in the past.
