    @rodhilton is this a GDPR violation though? Upon deleting the account they anonymise all your contributions. Moreover, those answers aren't personal data, so I don't think they're treated the same.

    I think they're in the legal right here and everyone who ever posted on StackOverflow just got trapped by giving away their rights through Terms of Service :(

    Pavel ‘I platform nazis’ Durov should actually shut up about Signal, because unlike the former, his Telegram doesn't even try to do any sort of end-to-end encryption and no one is using Telegram's secret chats because how unreliable they are. I'm also yet to see the actual reviews of his bespoke encryption protocol, which has been criticised and already had several vulnerabilities.

    Everyone should immediately stop contributing to the stack overflow and its network. The human touch is what made it unique. Delete your profile from SO AND all your answers. Freeloaders are making money out of human contributions.

    Well, I guess that’s it for ! It was fun as long as it lasted but like always, corporate greed has taken over

    now required people to link their to their Sony-soon-gets-hacked-again accounts

    I, like so many other players refuse this and just stopped playing all together since Sony just doesn’t give a shit about security

    Review updated, guess they got what they wanted

    My working theory is that people tend to think the "good" version of Windows is the N-1 one from today's

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @Techaltar I'm kinda with Matt here. I do like some changes they make to W11, but I still haven't recovered from loss of W10 Start menu. The new menu is so laggy and buggy, while providing significantly less functionality, and it's been a really hard hit after they removed start tiles.

    I know there weren't many tiles, but I used it for clocks, todos, calendar, weather and other things, so it's incredibly sad that I can no longer just press Start to see weather or time in US, for example...

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @Techaltar they did work fairly reliably for me, and updated real-time, like world clocks all would refresh immediately a minute began, todos refreshed on updates. The only issues I had with them is when I managed to crash Explorer or otherwise improperly restart it, then the tiles were just app icons. The correct way to restart Explorer, as it turns out, is to go to Task manager, select Explorer and click Restart, not Exit it with Ctrl+Shift+RMB on taskbar and then Win+R explorer... 🫠

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @not2b if you generate it once, you will then have one instance generate something obscene and then that'll propagate across the fediverse. See bluesky for example where preview is generated and attached to the post on the client which allows to create fake links and embeds. This is not something you'd want.

    @wimpy

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @rockmanjoe Mastodon does cache link previews, so one instance generates preview once—it's not per post and not per user. Which still doesn't help much given the amount of instances out there, but the alternative isn't nice either: you don't want to trust a random instance to generate a preview for the entire fediverse to propagate.

    @mks_h Popcorn Time still exists and maintained on GitHub to this day, and nothing has happened to it. These services don't host the content, so there's nothing to DMCA.

    @stux

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @cyrus I mean, copyrighters will always try to DMCA and GitHub will follow it and strike down the requested pages, as long as request sounds at least somewhat valid, because GitHub is not an arbitrator. However, you can appeal, and GitHub will restore everything: Popcorn Time repos have been brought down several times, so was youtube-dl, but those claims have no basis behind them, and usually ‘easily’ appealed.

    Awh, sad to hear that EU is closing their Mastodon and PeerTube instances, the latter I could understand — hosting vids is expensive, but Mastodon, their fediverse presence. It shown the best thing about OSS like Mastodon, like full sovereignty, but alas :(

    Use DNS over HTTPS to hide your Domain Name Service queries. The government is upset when you do this because it makes their job far harder. The example below is in the options for the Firefox browser.

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @rightardia doesn't really make their job harder, they can just read the TLS hello packet, which contains the domain name of the site you are trying to access. We need mass adoption of ECH: https://blog.cloudflare.com/announcing-encrypted-client-hello.

    Do you want to insert a ⚠️ emoji and have it not automatically turn into a smaller black and white version of that in some contexts?

    You just... just kidding I have no idea why it does that and I hate it send help.

    brawaru,
    @brawaru@mstdn.social avatar

    @tomayac some apps will strip selectors as a whitespace/blank character, Discord for example does that in status, display names, anywhere where it doesn't render emojis.

    @euronews judging my experiences with both platforms, youtube shorts are absolutely horrendous compared to tiktok. youtube is constantly pushing all sorts of bigotry, fake AI generated stuff, scams, and shorts made by children with 0 views in the stream of often genuinely good shorts content, and dislikes don't do anything about it, which makes me think it's kind of deliberate choice
