I initially posted briefly about this, but wanted to say a little more about Buscaglia, the journalist who "wrote" the AI-generated supplement in question.

Privacy vs Security: Yandex is spying on their users in an insecure way, Meta (Facebook, Insta) in a more secure way. Both of them are a threat against user privacy
This is yet another example showing that there are reasons to be more suspicious against proprietary apps. We should avoid installing GAFAM apps, and reducing as much as possible our dependency on their services is healthy

Do not be a bystander to genocide and war crimes! Sign this petition now, then share it far and wide (not just on here). Also, get EVERYONE you know to sign it.

Last week for my birthday, I was sent a cheap 19-string Vixxnox Lyre Harp.
My current living situation doesn't allow me to make much noise in the house, so I took it out to the back yard, as today is a nice day, so I could record the sound of it, and also demonstrate my complete ineptitude at playing it.
This was recorded using a Zoom H6 Essential, using a lav microphone to pick up my voice, and the X/Y capsule to pick up everything else. I used two instances of Supertone Clear to isolate my voice on the lav, and mute my voice on the X/Y microphones, so I am always in the absolute center.

in reply to Danielle Foré • • •Ugh okay so Gina knows about the mod who has created filters for the words “queer” and “trans” among other things, and she thinks that’s totally fine and not at all queerphobic and calling it out as obviously queerphobia is “disgustingly disingenuous”. So if you want to do an easy thing to be a queer ally this pride month, block Fosstodon. It’s a Nazi bar and it’s not going to get better.
