Thorough investigations of war crimes take a while when western journalists aren't allowed into the region and other journos are constantly targeted.

Kudos to WaPo for doing due diligence on Israel's attack back in January that killed a 6 year old girl and the medics who had coordinated Israeli approval to rescue her. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2024/hind-rajab-israel-gaza-killing-timeline/?pwapi_token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJyZWFzb24iOiJnaWZ0IiwibmJmIjoxNzEzMjQwMDAwLCJpc3MiOiJzdWJzY3JpcHRpb25zIiwiZXhwIjoxNzE0NjIyMzk5LCJpYXQiOjE3MTMyNDAwMDAsImp0aSI6ImI4ZmI3YWY5LWVjNDctNDY2My04ZTA5LTAzZjZkMWU2YmJiNSIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lndhc2hpbmd0b25wb3N0LmNvbS93b3JsZC9pbnRlcmFjdGl2ZS8yMDI0L2hpbmQtcmFqYWItaXNyYWVsLWdhemEta2lsbGluZy10aW1lbGluZS8ifQ.lx8Ajf7RaV4zrbKgiveU4LNj-auAw9sjBE6kYA6ZGW0&itid=gfta

In mid-March, Elad Goren, head of Coordination and Liaison Administration at COGAT, told The Post that the agency “coordinated everything … including the ambulance that wanted to go and find Hind.”

The IDF denied that any coordination had taken place, repeating its assertion that its forces were not in the area.

"Populaire X-gebruikers: 'Shit, ze hebben me een vinkje gegeven'"

Sociaal netwerk X is begonnen met het uitdelen van gratis vinkjes aan populaire gebruikers, maar daar lijkt niet iedereen even blij mee.

How Accounts on X Thrive While Spreading About the Israel-Hamas Conflict

With the gutting of content moderation initiatives at the former , accounts with blue checks, once a sign of authenticity, are disseminating debunked claims and gaining more followers.

Community Notes, X’s fact-checking system, hasn’t scaled sufficiently.

My sirtaptap.com link is no longer on despite rel=me on it...does it break if noopener is set along with Rel? Probably one of my plugins inserting it...but it should still work anyway shouldn't it?

mho, to journalism

My always-up-to-date list of German organizations on still works:

A better technical solution (without Google) is in the works. So why not prepare one for international media as well?
Can you point me to verified (!) accounts on Mastodon or the from newspapers/magazines/media etc.? Please, not individual journalists, that's a separate table. And where should I collect it (GoogleDocs, Github)?

What's the point of buying something if you don't want to show it off?

Unless you're actually ashamed of your life choices...

GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, /e/OS, etc

I’m not sure that /e/ is as degoogled as you might think:

We do think their phones are very pricey for what they are and not nearly as secure as something like GrapheneOS, ie lack of verified boot etc. Their cloud service is also not E2EE as far as I can tell, which you’d really expect from a “privacy service”.

Better to focus on using good products than be obsessive about Google.

I finally got around to verifying my website on Mastodon. Now I need to restore my blog posts from my old website.

75% of Steam Games Ever Tested are now either Playable or Verified on the Steam Deck (that's 13306 games ever tested at the time of writing).

Verifying your profile on Mastodon is free and easy if you have your own web site or blog or etc.

https://joinmastodon.org/verification

People will tell you it doesn't mean anything but that is not true. It tells you that the owner of the site and the owner of the account on Mastodon are the same. And that is not nothing, especially for big entities whose web site you already trust.

Some sites, like Bandcamp, add the rel=me tag automatically when you create a link.

Discovered something while going through the verified and playable data for the recent titles on the Steam Deck.

Valve and their partners are more often than not validating the games BEFORE they even release. And that's not just for games in early access, even some games that are only planned to be released in 3 months are already validated!

just introduced a "read-limit". accounts can read 6000 tweets a day, can read 600 tweets a day.

Official reason: "measure against data scraping" (I‘ll explain why this is bs below)

Inofficial but actual reason: is running out of money and Muk needs to take even more drastic measures to force people to buy
