You know how memory safety issues are responsible for approx 70% of CVEs and that’s considered a huge deal and worth mitigating?

About a year ago, my parents made the switch to Linux on their home machines because they really hated Win 10... Today I got a call from my mother to help her out with something, but I did not expect that "something" will be figuring out a sed pattern for a shell script she wrote to bulk rename files.
When I asked her why she didn't use some GUI program she said "I was an accountant in the DOS era, this makes more sense to me than a ribbon menu in Excel".

I’m a fan of @iFixit already because they help people reduce waste and gain some agency over repairing the panopticon devices for which we pay stupid money.
Even more of a fan because they are working to make their content accessible and asking for feedback.

I recently developed a thing to turn a Conversations chat* into a PDF.
codeberg.org/moji/typst-conver…
That story began with a friend of mine that had got a XMPP group chat where they shared updates and pictures of their latest travel adventure. Now chat is rather ephemeral and they wanted to preserve those memories in an easy accessible format that is PDF. And so I put something together.
* actually any chat as long as you can get the raw data in the expected format

❝ These men—human beings with names, histories, dreams—were marched through a gauntlet of armed guards, beaten, stripped naked, shaved, and thrown into overcrowded cells. A photojournalist on the scene described watching men age a decade in two hours. He watched as one young man sobbed, “I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.” This man was slapped for his tears, beaten for his vulnerability.
No phone calls. No visitors. No books. No talking. Just exile to a place “so cold and far from home they may as well have been sent into space, nameless and forgotten.”
And all of this—every slap, every sob, every stolen dignity—stamped with American approval. Coordinated with American officials. Executed with American efficiency. ❞

There are no known security issues with "Siacs OMEMO" / OMEMO v0.3¹ despite of what some very loud Signal fans would like you to believe. It has been audited by a third party² who took a longer look at it than all of the Signal fans combined.
Yes, #OMEMO v0.7+ (or TWOMEMO 😜) is a cleaner spec with more features (most notably Stanza Content Encryption). That’s why we wrote it. I’m a co-author. That doesn’t mean v0.3 is insecure.

I wonder if the rest of the Canadian fediverse realize that a Quebec mastodon server (Qlub.social) now has more active users than mstdn.ca
Wild. Qlub was featured on TVA and the Journal de Montreal (most popular medias in Quebec)
Not sure if it will last but will be fascinating to see how that will change the fediverse as the profile of users is quite different.

in reply to Ned Batchelder • • •> The technology is not going to go away. We will not turn our back on it and put it back into the bottle.
We, or at least those who aren't being ordered to use LLMs in our jobs, *can* choose to turn our back on them and just not use them, and doing so might be the best way to reduce the harms. Also, I don't believe you mentioned the harms that come from training on people's work without their consent to create plagiarism machines. I think that's the thing that most concerns me now.
