New: A Conceptual Model of ATProto and ActivityPub
You might want to know a little bit more about how #Bluesky and #atproto works, without needing to know all the technical details. This is a high level overview of how to think about how atproto works, and how it differs from #ActivityPub.
It is also a reflection on the concepts of decentralisation and federation, and what they bring to both the #fediverse and the #atmosphere

Hello everyone!
I write my bachelor's thesis about Mastodon as an alternative social network and how its users perceive the platform.
I would be greateful if you would particpate in my survey:
umfragen.uni-paderborn.de/inde…
It only takes 10-15 minutes and would help me a lot.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
In case you want to support me, you can repost the access link, which would also help me.
Thank you!
This Questions are problematic, I think:
* Mastodon’s actions against any harmful content are sufficient.
* Mastodon’s actions against the spread of fake news are sufficient.
For this, the admins/ moderators are responsible and not Mastodon.

it's astonishing how often this happens in my line of work:
client: can you review our source code for security issues?
me: of course!
[we stare at each other in a long, tense silence]
me: ... may I see the source code?
client: absolutely not.
In a past life, I worked on a compiler that the DoE used. I never had to handle their bug reports and was quite glad. The flow was:
Them: It doesn't work.
Us: In what way?
Them: That's classified. The wrong number comes out of the program.
Us: What program?
Them: That's classified.
Us: Can you send us a reduced test case?
Six months pass while the reduced test case is declassified, which involves review that it does not leak anything about the Super Secret Program that it's based on.
The reduced test case does not trigger the bug. Apparently the original did, but en route to being declassified the parts that triggered the bug were removed.
Gajim is currently migrating from GTK3 to GTK4. 🔧 GTK is Gajim's user interface toolkit. It provides building blocks, like windows, buttons and labels. 🧩
Version 4 of this toolkit brings performance improvements to Gajim, e.g. faster rendering of user interface elements. 💨
Additionally, switching to GTK4 allows Gajim to use newer widgets, like nice drop downs.
Here is a quick peek at a new group chat "@ mention" widget. 😎
Stay tuned!

Ui-wooo! Hetzner is one week late with their Halloween "prank": 3 maintenance windows in a row, November 6, 7 and 8. We hopefully won't be affected for the full time (they wrote "just a few minutes") but of course cannot tell *exactly* when. So some time within those windows.
Again, only the primary servers are affected. Our mirrors will still be available to you for app updates and installs.

iOS 18.2 beta adds ‘Upgrade to ChatGPT Plus’ option in Settings app - 9to5Mac

In the early 2000's, following the release of the audiogame Treasure Hunt, an early beta of a sequel was made available. I believe it was called Cloning Malice II. Every so often, I will get the battle music stuck in my head. I heard it when I was barely a teenager in an audio demo, and haven't heard it since, but could probably sequence it from memory. This is just how my brain works with music sometimes.
I'm wondering if anyone has this beta, the sounds, or the music files within those sounds. It would be around 20 years old at this point and I don't think it was fully playable. Eventually the concept was turned into three-d velocity.
I was looking in a Messenger Plus soundpack recently and found the first 8 seconds of that track. I am a little bit fixated on it and just want to hear it in full after all this time.
Pretty sure it was a @kjsapergia production.
