Apparently Meta is afraid of Pixelfed. Clearly, @dansup is doing something right. Can't imagine a bigger compliment.

Das hier dürft ihr gerne mal rumreichen: eine entfristete Stelle in meiner IT-Abteilung.
Die Besonderheit: wir suchen eine(n) Windows-Admin, der/die offen genug ist, sich mit uns auf eine Reise hin zu einer „open source company“ zu machen. Sprich Stück für Stück Windows-Dienste in Richtung Linux zu migrieren.
Da sollte sich doch hier eine Zielgruppe finden?

#Google Starts Tracking All Your Devices In 6 Weeks—Forget Chrome And #Android
Long story short is that Google has made updates to its advertising ecosystem essentially _permitting_ the fingerprinting of devices for use in targeted advertising. In their words they are going to be “less prescriptive with partners in how they target and measure ads.”
Doesn’t mean fingerprinting wasn’t happening before, just that Google is giving the green signal to the rest of the ecosystem to do so… and will likely use this to maybe replace third-party cookies.
Use an adblocker. Seriously.

Vamos a ver, es cierto que la imputación del fiscal general huele a prevaricación y lawfare que tira para atrás, pero no puede ser. No en esta España radical y rotundamente democrática, ¿no?
De esa premisa parte @gerardotc en su último Tecetipo. La conclusión es que, si no está prevaricando, lo que ocurre es que el Tribunal Supremo ha dado con "un agujero negro nunca antes detectado en el cual la línea espaciotemporal no funciona como pensábamos hasta hoy".

New hardcore #PDF rendering performance benchmark for #Poppler:
"Jesus Christ it's a #Lyon (map), get in the car!" 
That map takes 26 seconds to render with Poppler on #Linux, but only 6 seconds with PDFjs, or 15 seconds with XPDF: gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler…
I've profiled the issue on the various Poppler rendering backends, and there are some hypotheses about the slowness. If anyone can help fix this, that would be fantastic.

Hlavně za ty cesty a zahraniční politiku obecně.
To, že vám tam z toho #Fico dělá gulag, kde nejde ani bezpečně odejít z práce, když jsi lékař, mi je jako Vašemu sousedovi celkem fuk.
To, že vás rozkládá zevnitř mi sobecky je taky jedno - zvolili jste si to.
Ale to, že podobnej pitomec jezdí za hlavním nepřítelem #EU a #NATO, kterých je součástí - tohle z něj dělá bezpečnostní riziko pro mě, moje děti a EU obecně a to mi teda zatraceně vadí.
Všech myslících Slováků je mi líto...
no veď sa ti ani nečudujem.. je to na piču a v blízkej dobe to tak ešte stále bude, nie je vylúčené že Fico po tomto mandáte získa ďalší na ďalšie 4 roky, podľa mňa to je veľmi reálne. Ukľudnil som ťa? Nemal som to v pláne..

Psychiatrist: '"I think because it takes away control from the child," she wrote. "Play is how children work through emotions, impulses and conflicts [as] well as try out new behaviors. I would think [it] would be super irritating to have the toy shape and control your play — like a totally dominating playmate!"'

Element, the Matrix client:
"Let's have pin be right next to the edit button. And have both actions be transient and very tiny. You need to edit all the time, but hardly ever do pin, so let's make it so people constantly pin incorrect messages accidentally, instead of letting them easily correct a message."
(There are lots of other UI "papercuts" in the Element client, but this is one I'm constantly hitting.)

Steps to reproduce Thanks for Matrix; I love the concept, but I do hit a lot of little frustrating "papercut" issues in Element every day, including accidentally pinning instead of editing. In Elem...GitHub

Hey Mastodon, het is tijd voor een #eXit.
Volt zit sinds kort op Mastodon en onze aanwezigheid zal hier alleen maar toenemen. Twitter was ooit een plek voor ideeën en inzichten, maar X is een politiek wapen dat onze democratie ondermijnt. Daarom zijn wij van X vertrokken. Samen bouwen we aan platforms die versterken in plaats van verdelen.
