I didn’t know this kind of thing was possible until recently. I straight up couldn’t leave a site because of hijacking.

And a government backdoor.

Streisand Effect incoming. I for one heard of it but thought it was a run of the mill JRPG. Think I’ll check it out now.

Wonder if I got a scam call via AI the other day. It seemed more sophisticated than other ones I’ve gotten and things they said to me were very reassuring but I insisted on calling them back via their public-facing support line. Nobody knew what I was talking about when I called back.

Not sure the best place to discuss peace and love is at a Nazi rally.

Bitsocial is very similar to bittorrent and inspired by bittorrent

You can’t upload media directly

Inspired by a media sharing protocol so you can not share media… 😖

Yeah, I’m a developer and my teammates don’t always follow semver standards. I try to but every now and then it’s really hard to know which is the right move. I’ve also had breaks because of minor increments and the author refused to roll back the change because the new behavior was consistent with the spec [that didn’t change].

Great idea. Automatic updates (e.g. Watchtower) make me a little nervous.

If the parental control comes from the social media site itself then it’s likely the parent that’s being controlled. The most important control is limiting screen time and not every site allows parents to set hard limits.

Enshitification so soon? And the bubble hasn’t burst yet? I know it’s all a matter of time before I ask AI for FOSS software recommendations and it tries to upsell me on some cloud-subscription bullshit that “addresses all my requirements” and comes with “award winning 24/7 support”.

Sounds like it would be actively used so I wouldn’t go without a powered adapter or hub. I struggled for months with an external adapter that would work 90% of the time but suddenly unmount at the worst times.

Today it’s for CSAM. Tomorrow it could be for saying anything negative about dear leader. Our Constitution clearly won’t protect us.

I love asking new hires about ORMs. If they don’t have anything bad to say about them I know they’ve never used them.

Not just that, but a good amount of software wouldn’t work or even install because of a direct dependency on systemd.

Installing. We just call it installing.

They already showed their hand. Doesn’t matter if they’ve backed down. My new phone is going to use GrapheneOS and if this shit trickles down (Graphene is still based on Android) I’m going full Linux phone.

You could almost say it’s like being put into an oven.

I was thinking it’s less about using a “zero date” and more about the Linux/Unix community protesting the change by coding a well-known date.

Or duct tape

Nice. I used Splinter Cell to mod mine.
