OK, all good things … are 3: Anyone using Plex Media Server and be willing to check whether this app is still usable?

apt.izzysoft.de/packages/wtf.p…

plexmanager saw its last release 1.5 years ago, and its repo was archived in September. If it's still fine, we can keep it at #IzzyOnDroid a bit longer – but if not, it should be removed.

in reply to IzzyOnDroid ✅

I am hosting my own server at plex.ashpex.net and nope, the app doesn't work for me. I tried with the token from this tutorial: support.plex.tv/articles/20405…

Unless I am missing something.

"Ceratopsian" will be the default theme for Debian 13: The theme "Ceratopsian" by Elise Couper has been selected as the default
theme for Debian 13 "trixie". The theme is inspired by Trixie's (the fictional
character from Toy Story) frill and is also influenced by a previously used
theme called "futurePrototype" by Alex Makas.

After the Debian Desktop Team made the call for proposing themes, a total
of six choices were submitted. The desktop artwork poll was open… bits.debian.org/2024/12/cerato…

As that worked pretty fine (thanks to all those having checked up Paperless!) – anyone here using oVirt and able to check whether

apt.izzysoft.de/packages/org.o…

is still usable? It had its last release back in 2019, and its source repo was archived 2021-11-25…

Look, it’s why we did Projekt:ONI 5 yrs. Ago…

If your ISP is compromised how do you stay private?

The FBI knows it’s suddenly a real problem, and they are advising people to use Signal. They know that Signal is not backdoored, and they know that encryption is a Net win for people, especially in these circumstances.

Long term, we need to be looking to solutions like Veilid Framework to deny any adversary from having access to our metadata…

but for now, Use Signal, Use TOR.

Anyone useing Paperless and can check if this app still works?

apt.izzysoft.de/packages/eu.ba…

It's repo had been archived half a year ago, and the last release was made almost 3 years ago – so it would be good to know if we should still keep it at #IzzyOnDroid or have to remove it as "no longer working".

Thanks for your help!

Did you know that ISO27001 says that "application security requirements should be identified" and include requirements you find in #OWASP #ASVS and #MASVS ? OWASP Cornucopia help you define these requirements. Play the game at copi.owasp.org ? #cybersec #appsec #infosec #threatmodeling #isms

Několik lidí se mě o víkendu ptalo, jestli pořád dělám kroužky pro děti. Nedělám, protože #Ukrajina. Práce pro dnesnaukrajine.cz/ mě sežere tak 3.5 hodiny týdně. To je skoro přesně to, co jsem dříve věnoval kroužkům pro děti.

Můžete si říkat, že se vás válka netýká. Ale týká. A až si budete říkat, že je škoda proč už není akce XY, tak tohle je jeden z možných důvodů.

Whoa, interesting that "bini" means wife in Bahasa Indonesia, which is kind of opposite of the Tagalog meaning of "binibini." Reminds me of the difference of Tagalog "salamat" and Indonesian "selamat."

Incidentally, BINI has a song "Born To Win" that they translated to Bahasa Indonesia.

👀🔎 La scorsa settimana le aziende Big Tech hanno pubblicato i loro primi report su come valutano i rischi sistemici delle loro piattaforme per gli utenti ai sensi del Digital Services Act dell'UE. Ecco cosa abbiamo scoperto finora: 🧵

Il post di People vs BigTech

@Etica Digitale (Feddit)

Il modello di business basato sulla sorveglianza, i sistemi di raccomandazione tossici e le caratteristiche di progettazione che creano dipendenza (il vero modello di business di questi giganti della tecnologia) non sono considerati fonti di rischi sistemici.

Invece, i report si concentrano sul sintomo (comportamento scorretto dell'utente, moderazione inefficace dei contenuti), ignorando la causa principale: una cattiva progettazione della piattaforma.

Ciò nonostante, le prove schiaccianti che questi sistemi causano danni, tra cui la diffusione e l'amplificazione dell'odio, della disinformazione, della divisione e l'invasione della nostra privacy per profilarci e sfruttare le nostre vulnerabilità a scopo di lucro.

Non affrontando i rischi legati alla progettazione della piattaforma e ai modelli di business, le aziende Big Tech hanno ignorato anni di ricerche indipendenti su questo tema, anche da parte dei membri di #PeoplevsBigTech

Le grandi aziende tecnologiche affermano di consultare stakeholder esterni per valutare e mitigare i rischi, ma sembra che nessuna delle +120 organizzazioni in @PeoplevsBigTech, comprese quelle che hanno pubblicato ricerche sui rischi sistemici relativi alle piattaforme di social media, sia stata consultata. La DSA afferma che dovrebbero. Coincidenza?

Ci sono anche lacune nei report, ad esempio Facebook non riesce a spiegare perché identifica alcuni rischi come bassi. Alcuni report non vanno molto oltre ciò che era già di dominio pubblico, con pochissimi dati concreti su metriche ed efficacia.

Sebbene la maggior parte delle aziende Big Tech fornisca informazioni su come mitigano i rischi identificati (alcuni dei quali sono stati suggeriti da gruppi della società civile ed esperti), nessuna di esse fornisce informazioni sull'efficacia di queste misure di mitigazione.

Ad esempio, Facebook cita l'uso di etichette di disinformazione e YouTube evidenzia la funzionalità "Breaking News Shelf" come esempi di misure di mitigazione, ma non ci vengono forniti dettagli significativi sulla loro efficacia.
Abbiamo bisogno di prove che queste misure di mitigazione funzionino (o meno) per poter giudicare se siano efficaci. Finora la ricerca ha dimostrato che le piattaforme dei social media sono progettate per coinvolgere, far infuriare e creare dipendenza, danneggiando la nostra salute mentale. Se ci sono prove del contrario, vogliamo vederle!

Anche la società civile deve essere consultata in modo significativo sui rischi sistemici correlati alle piattaforme dei social media. Avendo pubblicato molte ricerche indipendenti su questo tema, sappiamo una cosa o due sui rischi 😉

Restate sintonizzati per un'analisi più dettagliata dei report nelle prossime settimane 📑 Nel frattempo, potete trovare alcune delle nostre ricerche precedenti relative ai rischi delle piattaforme di social media qui e di seguito:

Yup, you guessed it. It's the LLM-garbage. Again.

Today's DecRecs is this site which lists speculative fiction in translation (into English), and I'm linking you to this page which lists SF in translation available for free, categorized by year:

And here is SF in translation categorized by original language (if it's freely available to be read, the link will be included after the title):

* north (up, towards the zenith, north generally the direction of the earth's north pole, but adjusted to be perpendicular with the galactic plane)
* south (down, towards the nadir, opposite of north)

* coreward (pointing from Sol towards Sag A)
* rimward (opposite of coreward)

* leading (left if viewed from clockwise spin which is convention for some reason, south facing north, bottom up; right if viewed with counterclockwise spin, top down. also sometimes called spinward)
* trailing (right if viewed from clockwise spin, left if viewed from counterclockwise spin. opposite of leading)
