PSA: If you are running a Matrix homeserver written in Rust, you'll need to upgrade NOW

There is a recently discovered critical vulnerability that affects all Matrix homeservers of the Conduit lineage. If you're using a Rust-based Matrix server (which are basically Conduit and forks), please urgently upgrade to the following versions:

If you're not able to upgrade right now, you should urgently implement this workaround in your reverse proxy.

Attackers exploiting this flaw can arbitrarily kick any user out of a room, join rooms unauthorized on the same server, and can also ban same-server users. They effectively constitute a severe denial of service from an unauthenticated party, and it has been exploited in the wild.

@Kipe @OttovonWenkoff Já nevím, jako ujel bych to to neříkám, ale já bych byl po těch kilometrech byl jeden den kaput. Mně stačilo to ježdění po Bavorsko. Jasný ono je i něco jiného být 8 hodin v práci a pak jet 400 km z Garmisch-Partenkirchen, ale i tak.
Někomu to tak asi nevadí.

When ChatGPT was released 3 years ago I never anticipated how it could become a source of tensions with people in my life.

So to add to its many damages, it's a source of:

- environmental catastrophe
- economic bubble
- monumental job losses with bosses leaning into AI and laying off workers
- loss of critical thinking
- destruction of higher ED methods
- further isolation with people using AI characters as "romantic partners"
- dangerous medical advice (especially with reliance on it for mental health support)

(I'm probably forgetting other important things)

AND:

source of tensions inside homes and with friends when you have a person critical of AI (🙋‍♀️​) attempting to reason with a person whose default setting is: "I'll ask ChatGPT". Pointing out flagrant mistakes by AI seems to make their heads explode and get angry at the messenger. Ouf.

Sorry for the downer but I'm sure this is a pretty common problem...

Anyway, this morning I was given hope by a toot from @jwildeboer and I should just keep focusing on that. And make sure my own child doesn't buy into the BS of AI... mastodon.social/@jwildeboer@so…

Welcome to week 1 of 2026!

What, week 1 of 2026 is in 2025? Yes: the "first week of 2026" starts on the Monday of the first week that has at least 4 days that fall in 2026, AKA the week with the first Thursday of the year.

Since years don't have an integer number of weeks, a "weekyear" has either 52 or 53 weeks - so you can say we have 'leap weeks' sometimes.

This is all laid out in ISO8601:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_week…

However, the nice thing about standards is that there's so many to choose from. Yes, there are also people who count differently. The Java docs for their utility classes to count weeks cheekily claims "the common definition" is one where a week starts on Sunday (and week 1 is the first week where *any* day falls into the new year): docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase… . Do not believe their lies.

leap week calendar system in which weeks start on a Monday and the first week of a year starts from the Monday closest to 1 January; e.g. Thu. 31 Dec. 2009 is 2009–W53–4

Ja, leider! Und für eine, nämlich Star Trek: Prodigy, gibt es keine Entsprechung auf Paramount Plus. Netflix hatte die Serie ja im letzten Jahr gerettet und die zweite Staffel überhaupt erst zur Veröffentlichung gebracht. Jetzt gibt's Prodigy nur noch als Kaufvariante bei Apple & co., oder als physische Medien, AKA Blu-Ray. Und das bei der besten neuen Trek-Serie überhaupt! Ist echt bedauerlich!

FileBin is a mobile client for FileBin, a self-hostable service to manage your pastes. We finally managed to get it RB, as we were able to locate a culprit in Gradle not dealing correctly with per-ABI builds when only building a single ABI…

So, current RB status: 773 apps (60.4%)

Looks like global shortcuts are not possible under #Wayland's security model. #Hyprland apparently poked a hole into it to enable it.

If anyone knows a workaround for #KDE (or #GNOME) let me know. I used to define global shortcuts for all sorts of stuff.

I adore the VoiceOver feature that causes activities to trigger later than you wanted them to, for example by switching to a voice for code snippets only for the text *after* the end of a <code> element.

I enjoy it so much that I'm considering making an NVDA add-on to introduce the same level of inaccuracy to config profiles. Imagine your Notepad settings only being applied after Alt-Tabbing away from Notepad, or your say all settings only being activated after resuming manual reading. Game changer.

We can have people who are asking for rights for Palestinians. Absolutely fine. But we can't have this kind of identity-based hate movement being taught in classrooms

“Bondi was a warning shot,” cautions Cary Kogan, professor of psychology at the University of Ottawa. “If Western governments aren’t going to deal with the issue (of antisemitism), this is what we’re going to end up with. And I worry; the intelligence community has told us very clearly that there are bad actors here in Canada, and you know, the government needs to listen.”

“In a very strategic and intentional way,” Cary asserts, “our universities are being used as a source of ideological propaganda. And there are bad actors who we know are doing that.” It makes sense, he adds, if you are trying to get some “intellectual ideological capture,” focus on university campuses; that’s where you have the most academic freedom.

'Hiding their Jewish identity': Professor warns antisemitism is making campuses intolerable for Jews

Daphne update.

Our prayers have been answered. She survived the general anaesthetic, which was our first major concern as it was a risk.

The MRI showed she had a massive stroke today, the seizure behaviour was her having the stroke and then going into a massive panic attack because she lost her sight and control of her legs.

When I left her she was writhing around in a kennel and I put my face to hers so she knew I was there, she was panicking but licked my face as she knew it was her dad. I thought it was going to be our last interaction.

The specialist called and reassured us that she should make an almost full recovery. Mrs B has been in bits all day, I've been doing the stoic bit.

When the lovely specialist said "she'll be chasing bunnies again" I fucking folded. Glad she was on the phone and couldn't see me ugly crying.

Thank you all so much for your support. I appreciate the messages but as I said, just knowing people are thinking of us was enough.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm behind this, but many still believe censorship is for protecting children. A side-effect to pushing digital ID & age checks is to virtue signal parents they can rely on digital nanny services while never really following through with the actual protections. It is false advertising, deceptive, and removes the responsibility of parents being aware of their children's exposure on the Internet. Age verification isn't needed when parents are involved with their children's welfare.

Meredith Whittaker (@Mer__edith) has been invited to speak at #39C3 later today. If you make it to the mic in time, here is an interesting question for her: "If I’m put on a boycott list by the Trump regime because I’m openly anti-fascist or oppose war crimes, will you adhere to US laws and block my access to #Signal?"

Saludos camaradas,

Hoy requiero de vuestro amplio conocimiento del castellano y vuestra pericia eligiendo nombres. A saber:

En el #StardewValley tengo unas gallinas a las que he llamado con nombres antiguos, como de señoras de pueblo, rollo Remigia, Dorotea, Gertrudis, etc.

Esta tarde jugaré y estoy construyendo un establo, así que tendré vaquitas con las que quiero seguir eligiendo nombres similares. Escucho vuestras sugerencias, que se me acaba la inventiva y seguro que aquí hay gente con muy buenas ideas 😇

Se agradecen contribuciones o en su defecto un boost para llegar a más gente. Gracias, estimades 😙
