I administer my own home server. I've set up an upstream OIDC server (Authentik) in anticipation of the new MAS standard. What else do I need to do in order to have a smooth migration?
I've seen a lot of promotional material about the new MAS implementation, but not much about how it will break my instance or how my configuration will need to change.

From "Apple Human Inteface Guidelines 1987", page 61:
Alert boxes
An alert box resembles a modal dialog box (see Figure 3-13). The only way the user can respond is by clicking buttons or by pressing Enter or Return. Alert boxes might contain dials and buttons but usually not text fields, radio buttons, or check boxes.
Note the recommended general arrangement of the elements. The icon is at the left, with the message text to the right. The buttons are below the message, with the default button, boldly outlined, at the lower right. The default is the likeliest or safest response, and can be chosen by simply pressing Return or Enter.
The way to be sure the default button is really "safe" is to word the message carefully.
Messages in alert boxes must be brief, informative, and friendly without being misleading. If the alert is warning the user of a serious situation, it must be made clear—not hidden in a polite phrase. Messages should be phrased so that the user can easily answer them, and the wording should reflect the user's point of view, not the programmer's. Figure 3-15 shows an example.
The Venn diagram showing the overlap between AI maximalists and fascists is consolidating ever closer to a circle-shaped layer cake. CEO Tobi Lütke *delights* in his employees cowering. It's the only explanation.
I'm not surprised, but I still feel the breath catch in my throat as I behold the inhumanity of it all.
Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke sent a memo to employees saying that before they ask for more headcount or resources, teams must show why they “cannot get what they want done using AI.”
#Microsoft reportedly fires staff whose protest interrupted its Copilot event - techcrunch.com/2025/04/07/micr… "during the event, Aboussad shouted that Suleyman had “blood on his hands,” interrupting him while he delivered a keynote about new AI products."
Whilst this doesn't even begin to make up for all of the horrors, Boris Johnson being bitten by an ostrich is significantly better than Boris Johnson *not* being bitten by an ostrich. So for your viewing pleasure......Boris Johnson being bitten..... by an ostrich.
Holy shit, the PCB design of this new sensor board, called Ophanim, of CERN’s Aegis experiment just fucking slaps. Right now, there don’t seem to be many images of it on the web, but I hope to see more in the future.
The deadline for state and local governments in the United States to meet the 2024 rule about web and mobile accessibility are coming up in 2026 and 2027, depending on the size of the government agency.
There should be a word for it: the feeling of disappointment / sadness when you realize interesting people you got to know on the Fediverse have since decamped to Bluesky.
Of course, there must be valid reasons for it. Still, this makes me a little sad.
I have a dormant Bluesky account and from time to time I check in and see them posting so much there.
The only people doing real "responsible AI" work are those doing this.
"On Monday, Microsoft reportedly terminated the roles of two software engineers, Ibtihal Aboussad and Vaniya Agrawal, who protested the company’s reported dealings with the Israeli military during Microsoft’s Copilot and 50th anniversary event last week."
Sweden's latest attack on encryption comes simultaneously with the Swedish Armed Forces speaking up in favor of encryption. If this alone is not enough to reject the legislation, read the open letter to the Swedish Riksdag.
sorry, two stupid questions about it: how to follow a person and how to write that short bio you have in your profile? I mean, from accessibility perspective.
@menelion Let me see if I can explain how to follow someone. It is a slightly complicated process. To do your bio though go to the my profile button, now you can scroll down to edit profile. To follow someone: if you have the direct link to their profile all you have to do is open it and find the follow button. If you are on your timeline I guess it's called, you Will: swipe down on the audio you are interested in until you see go to user. Tap that and now you will be in the person's profile. This page does act pretty funky but from what I am understanding they are a new platform so maybe they'll fix it.
This could lead to some failure to update the certificate data with tools that don't handle redirect correctly. These tools will fail to fetch the new certdata.txt now.
I'm putting the finishing touches on a massive release of the Converse #XMPP chat client. 🚀
✨ Here’s what to look forward to:
◾ Groupchat DMs: You can DM other participants without knowing their address ◾ Blocklists for spammers 💩 ◾ Accessibility improvements, like support for RTL languages ◾ Media enhancements ◾Big performance enhancements, particularly for chats with a long history and many participants. ◾Three new themes, Nordic 🗻 , Dracula 🧛♂️ and Cyberpunk 🌆
Storm Dragon pushed changes to the master branch of the I38 project Totally revamped the alt+f1 menu system. I think this is much better than the old version, and it also fixes a bug where the old menu didn't close when something was selected. It is experimental, and can be removed if people prefer the old menu, just let me know.
From the sattirical UK-based web site NewsThump: Trump funeral remains America’s top sexual fantasy
A survey of Americans’ sexual behaviour has revealed that, for the ninth year running, the number one sexual fantasy of most people is the funeral of Donald Trump. “I only have to think about a funeral parade for the president and I go from six to midnight,” said one respondent...
Welcome to the random shit Z sends me, Kayla, and Gap Tangle, among others, just for a reaction.

@icing the question of "what benefit does it bring" still remains.
We finally started using vararg macros for our Debug() macros in OpenLDAP. We also use snprintf if available. We still don't use C++ style comments. The change in Debug macros really makes it a pain to backport bugfixes from tip to older releases. Annoying...
@icing @hyc MSVC versions... Aren't they fractal? There are at least 3 compiler versions available in VS2022: v141 (2017), v142 (2019) and v143 (2022). And then there are multiple supported versions (at least 10 and 11), and multiple versions of the Windows toolkit. Not to mention x64 vs x86, and debug vs release. And you cannot link libraries if compilers or toolkit mismatch. Are you testing all that?
@huitema @icing @hyc we test some of that at least, I think to a decent degree. We don't get a lot of people reporting such problems. Windows problems are common and a nuisance, but they tend to be more about Windows being unique and special, not about MSVC compiler specific problems.
I am only testing with one version of VS, but I find the test with x86 targets very useful. 32 bit pointers, 32 bit for size_t, nice to test that on x86 before attempting ports to Arduino and similar systems. Testing for x86 caught a bug like that right now.
Today's real 'fake news' incident (which added $2.4 trillion in market value and erased it nearly as quickly) hopefully will be dissected in every journalism class and newsroom. cnn.com/2025/04/07/media/fake-…

Many communication protocols operating over the modern Internet use

Angry constituent here: "It’s very hard to get people to believe that anyone is trying to end research into finding cures for diseases that affect everyone. The richest people get #cancer & #Alzheimers & #Parkinson’s. . . . & yet it is happening. Quite simply, until elected officials start hearing from angry constituents in town halls who are pissed that their futures & the futures of their loved ones are being lit on fire for no reason, then nothing matters."

Coming to an airport near you with those "convenient" face recognition tools which scan you so you walk out without doing any paperwork, will be security personnel matching your face to anything you've said or done and deciding whether you get harassed (or worse) or not.
Clearview AI’s founders always intended to target immigrants and the political left. Now their digital dragnet is in the hands of the Trump administration.
