FediNuke/tier0.csv transparency update:

I override-added an instance to FediNuke using my documented override process.

feministwiki.org (subdomain “fedi.”): I blocked this on envs back in June proactively after it was automatically queued for manual review. The decision was easy, given the blatant transmisia on their root domain.

Since then, additional receipts have cropped up and they’ve been blocked by enough bias sources for me to do the override process. I added it to my shared lists, inc. FediNuke. Receipts on my receipt archive.

Severity is on par with the likes of spinster.xyz.

"On behalf of the WordPress security team, ..." and then many mentions of "fixing a security issue" without specifying what it is. (The patch is, presumably, public since the plugin is OSS and PHP?)

wordpress.org/news/2024/10/sec…

I don't have an opinion on the broader Wordpress situation, but seeing a security exception used to wield power in a broader controversy is extremely worrying.

Open source communities trust security teams with exceptional powers, and weakening that trust damages everyone.

In the blindness advocacy groups and online communities I'm familiar with, I don't think we discuss weakness much if at all. I think we try to deny or downplay the fact that being disabled means being weak in some ways. We try to focus on what we *can* do instead, and when requesting accessibility accommodations, we say we just do things differently. At least that's my impression.

@Michael Vogel @Friendica Support Absprachegemäß mit Michael auf XMPP habe ich das Native Teilen (das seit einigen Wochen nicht mehr funktioniert) auf Spiegeln als meine eigenen Beiträge umgestellt. Der aktuelle Blogeintrag mit dieser Einstellung wurde in den letzten 30 Minuten nicht mit meiner oldie-Instanz föderiert.

Wo ist er geblieben?

Even though I know #HTML inside out and use it virtually every day, I'm still reading #HTMLForPeople by @bw because it's a prime example of how a good guide should be written.

1. The book is simple and easy to follow, with relevant points explained well enough even for non-coders to understand.
2. Images are clearly described for #blind readers through the use of #AltText.
3. The website is easy to navigate with a #ScreenReader.
4. There are no annoying pop-ups or ads on the website.
5. The book is entirely free of charge.

Výpusť bazénu. Trubka velikosti 50. Se zakončením šroubovice 1" na hadici. Ať se může bazén vypustit po celé zahradě, né jen na jedno místo.

Jenže závity zrezlé. Dolů to nejde. A celá koncovka na trubku v místním dealerství není. Mají max. velikost 40.

A i kdyby, stejně nemají kombinaci závitů, abych se dostal na požadovaný rozměr na konci.

To bude ještě sranda, abych nemusel používat ponorné čerpadlo na vypuštění 😁

"A decade ago, Germany’s renewable energy transition was seen as a model for the rest of the world. Today much of the working class has turned against all things green. What happened?"

Excellent piece by Sean Sweeney in Jacobin

Just a thought: abundant cheap and clean energy is necessary. "Public ownership" in itself won't solve that basic physical reality. As long as Germany doesn't build plenty of new nuclear power plants, it will remain to deindustrialise for the same reasons the article already explains very well.

is 1000% valuable product-direction research data

Current systems are basically outsourcing to call-center style labeling factories — with a bit of ML laundering in between — & this fully pre-dates the LLM boom (Facebook M,? & when Siri was new)

Recent LLM innovation has let them do more of the ML laundering and time shifting by throwing compute at it

But they're still mostly emulating what a call-center drone can do

in reply to Jeremy Kahn

That "emulate form without doing actual reasoning" is so effective at charming the executive class into throwing money at it…

…is kinda damning of the executive class' own "genius" intellectual self-regard

They themselves have used prose-based discriminative pattern-matching (& privilege) to get where they are, not actual reasoning

"That guy fast-talks like he knows what he's talking about, put him in charge of a division" is no way to run a system of {governance}

Hiya, another day, another #GoToSocial release candidate:

Thanks for reading and helping us find bugs! We're getting there 🙂

Kritik an Israel - Amnesty: „Humanitäres Völkerrecht wird nicht eingehalten“

Amnesty International kritisiert eine „einseitige Parteinahme“ der Bundesregierung mit Israel und fordert auf, Waffenlieferungen zu stoppen.#GAZA #Libanon #AMNESTYINTERNATIONAL #ISRAEL

"In der aktuell erregt geführten Debatte über die gesellschaftliche Bedrohung durch Besteck redet niemand über Löffel. Es geht nur um die Messer. Da aber ist man quer durch die Parteien mit Verboten schnell bei der Hand. Kann sich jemand eine ähnliche Diskussion über die weitaus größere Gefahr auf Deutschlands Straßen vorstellen, über die Straftäter am Steuer? Sie scheint undenkbar. Und genau das ist das Problem."
