Every year, the Dutch government adjusts taxes on electricity, gas, water as well as other things.
They publish a table on the official website here:
belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/con…
On Jan 1, there was no data about 2025 at all. Yesterday, on Jan 2, data appeared, stating the electricity tax to be € 0,10512 per kWh. Today, this number changed to € 0,10154 without any notice of change on that website. 😐

We're going to dive in with more depth on this, exploring why Bluesky's content tools are the second worst we've encountered in a long, rich history of internet censorship (just behind Meta, which are *awful).
The long and short of it is: language matters. masto.ai/@vagina_museum/113758…

'50 years of giving the money to the wealthy people resulted in the poor people getting no money,' is not a terribly surprising result. 🤡

50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economics study says
Tax cuts for the wealthy didn't boost the economies of the U.S. and 17 other countries — but they did worsen income inequality.Aimee Picchi (CBS News)

Schwarz-Geld im Kontext der FDP ist ziemlich auf den Punkt gebracht, meiner Meinung nach!😁
Social Democracy, an alternate history game set in the Weimar Republic. You control the SPD and fascism is on the rise.
In my playthrough, I tried to ally with the far left and built a strong leftist paramilitary force, leading to civil war against Hitler.
This game is fucking hard.

🚨 Gmail’s AI Security Risk 🚨
A @Forbes article reveals a Gmail vulnerability @Google has CONFIRMED but WON’T FIX.
Security researchers find that Gemini AI which is integrated into Gmail and other Workspace tools, is susceptible to indirect prompt injection attacks.
So why did Google issue a “Won’t Fix (Intended Behavior)” ticket?

Siri “unintentionally” recorded private convos; Apple agrees to pay $95M
Apple users may get $20 each for up to five Siri-enabled devices.Ashley Belanger (Ars Technica)
@tardis agree 100%.
to be fair I'm laughing at this payment, $90M is nothing when it comes to selling users data 😞
But there are some cool projects for smartphones that are worth the look (@GrapheneOS , @calyxinstitute , @LineageOS), and also some great alternative software to use in replacement of the apps and services of the big players.

Český projekt VHSky bude konkurovat YouTube. Diváci se při sledování videa stávají peery
Platforma postavená na otevřeném softwaru PeerTube by neměla být plná reklam, jako je tomu u YouTube. Diváci se při sledování videa stávají peery a sdílejí jej s ostatními diváky, podobně jako u torrentu.Radomír Kejduš (Internet Info, s.r.o.)

Elon Musk Uses Cybertruck Explosion to Show Tesla Can Remotely Unlock and Monitor Vehicles
Surveillance capabilities used and justified by extreme circumstances often trickle down to be used on lesser crimes.Jason Koebler (404 Media)
If Elon Musk can unlock your Tesla, provide location data to authorities, and recordings of people inside the car,...what else can he (or a hacker) do with your vehicle?
Crash it?
Disable the steering or brakes?
Release conversations to competitors?
Photograph your kids?
Prevent it from starting in an emergency?
Force you to upgrade needlessly?
Make it very expensive to maintain or operate?
Enshittification means paying, but not owning, and certainly doesn't mean control.

My whole life I have seen advertisements for desk jobs that required people to have driver's licenses, use of a vehicle, and insurance, even when there was no driving involved in the job at all.
Requiring a driver's license for employment is now prohibited in California if driving is not reasonably expected to be part of the job duties. This is a huge victory for people who use transit and cycling for their mobility.

For anyone who ants to try the new Toby Doom Launcher, you can download it from stormux.org/downloads/toby_doo…
Just unzip it and place all the files in the top level Toby Doom folder. The zip file contains the source code, the compiled .exe launcher, and some examples for custom games in the TobyCustom folder. There's also a _internal folder that contains all the stuff the .exe launcher needs.
Hopefully it works well for you. For #nvda users, you will need to press alt+down arrow to expand the combo boxes. I plan to eventually look into this and see if they can be expanded by default, but for now it's time for a break so I can actually play Doom instead of coding for it. 🤘

Can only recall few software tools keeping backwards compatibility many protocols versions, with forward versions implementations. Then such security new/old reports, unavoidable?
AFAIK still no VSC http3 plugin, and only few for http2 ...While anyone just can test http3 from win/mac/lin shell default curl installs:
