Worth grepping your source code for "polyfill.io" and taking urgent measures to remove that code if you're linking it into your site - the domain name apparently now intermittently serves malicious JavaScript

ja, maar als ik hem dan zelf compile (of liefst door fdroid laat compilen) kan ik er niet iets mee wanneer de oude versie niet meer werkt.

Phone Link is Microsoft's late and closed source alternative to KDE Connect. It requires you sign in to a Microsoft Account for it to work.

support.microsoft.com/en-us/to…

This means all the transactions between your phone and your PC are monitored and sucked up by Microsoft.

Just in case you hadn't read the terrifying conditions you agree to when you sign up for a Microsoft Account, here are two of the more relevant paragraphs.

So, yeah... KDE Connect is still the better option.

Today the EU opens accession negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova.

We stand at the threshold of a key moment for these two countries. Together, we can forge a larger and forward-looking Europe.

The path ahead will be challenging but also filled with immense opportunities.

#Windows 11 is now automatically enabling #OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

"Quietly and without any announcement, the company [#Microsoft] changed Windows 11's initial setup so that it could turn on the automatic folder backup without asking for it."

Imagine your operating system forcing all your desktop files to sync to the cloud, without letting you know it would do that. Users should be aware of when their files are synced to any cloud.

Oh wait, I forgot... Microsoft has zero regard for user choice, #privacy, and #security.

Microsoft is continuously making it harder for users to use local accounts or opt-out of things/"services" (like OneDrive) in general.

in reply to Avoid the Hack!

I do think they themselves would be wise to know that completely ridding us of the option will just force people to create forked ISOs and drive more Windows installer distribution underground. In a way they're playing a game of balance, the bigger question is how far they will push the needle before realizing it needs to be pulled back a bit.

in reply to Hubert Figuière

They have instructions on this page connect.mozilla.org/t5/discuss… about how to use a custom URL which can point locally (instead of using online services); it mentions going to about:config and setting `browser.ml.chat.provider` to `localhost:8080/?q=` or whatever.

*If* they're even going to ship something like this, then they really should have something that's local *first* and actually open source and *also* not require a workaround hack and setting it up yourself.

I'm disappointed.

Liebe Mitstreiter*innen,

die #Bezahlkarte für #Geflüchtete halten wir u.a. für diskriminierend, entmündigend und verfassungswidrig - das haben wir schon öfter gesagt.

Auf dem Treffen zwischen Bundeskanzler und Ministerpräsident*innen letzte Woche wurden neue Details verhandelt, z.B. eine Bargeldobergrenze von 50 €. Gegen all das wendet sich diese #Petition des Flüchtlingsrat Berlin - wie wir Teil der Kampagne gegen die Bezahlkarte:

Sad news! The Living Computers Museum in Seattle is dead, and the Allen estate is auctioning off the vintage items. geekwire.com/2024/seattles-liv… They closed their physical doors near the start of the pandemic, but I had always hoped they might reopen.

I bought two vintage speech synthesizers on eBay, an Echo II card (for an Apple II) and a DECtalk Express, specifically to donate them to the museum. Now I guess they'll go to some rich collector who likely won't know what to do with them.
