Pues al parecer el 60% de las viviendas compradas en España en 2024 se han pagado a tocateja, sin hipotecas. Es decir, un puñado de especuladores está comprando más casas que el otro 95% de la población junta. Y encima haciendo eso están también subiendo los precios.
Y luego en las noticias se alarman cuando okupan una casa. Lo raro es que no se produzcan más okupaciones.
Una pregunta a petición (más o menos) de E: ¿Se puede ver una retransmisión de Twitch sin tener cuenta?
(Reconozco que tengo 0 idea de qué va Twitch, pero E se ha enterado de que @Ransil hace retransmisiones y le da rabia no verlas porque no tiene cuenta)
Lo prometido es deuda, aquí tenéis mi artículo sobre los problemas de la web. Hablo del problema con los motores de búsqueda y el SEO, el monopolio de Google entre otros problemas de la web.
También toco algunas soluciones, entre ellas la #WebSencilla y protocolos alternativos como #Gemini y #Gopher. Aquí os lo dejo:

Not to mention this is also bad for video game preservation. Years from now, the servers meant to handle your account creation will probably cease to be, and the games will be unplayable unless someone cracks them. The shortsightedness of this industry never fails to amaze me.
@sqhistorian but the lack of preservation is done on purpose. It's in the best interest of the corporations to reduce the life span* of videogames so you have to buy the shiny new thing that will make them the most profits, instead of playing your old games.
*with the exception being games like Fortnite that have in-game purchases, hence they continue making them money.
To all Fedi Admins Currently Being hit with a Spam Wave:
This kind of spam is now over! Unmute all the instances no longer on my list!
I've just released v4.0.0 of The UNmute List! I'd be very happy about a small donation because I have very little time and I cannot really justify working on this list with my current schedule :mycomputer:
There is a new type of spam, the same instances are affected as before. Those responsible in Japan are said to have been arrested.
Simply import this list and you'll mute the 47 worst spam instances currently known to me! I've worked on it for multiple weeks, sometimes ~9 hours at a time verifying all lists sent to me manually.
Limit first, defederate only in worst situations!
Consider re-federating with and un-silencing any of the mentioned instances once the spam is mitigated. The admins of some of these may have just been asleep when this all started.
Ban Spam Accounts via their E-Mail Domain
Block the following E-Mail Domain and whatever temp Mail provider it resolves to: chitthi.in
Just to be safe, block these ones too (same provider)
mailto.plus
fexpost.com
fexbox.org
mailbox.in.ua
any.pink
All our spam accounts came from these E-mails.
Since you probably have some of these accounts sleeping:
https://[your-instance.tld]/admin/accounts?email=%25%40chitthi.in there just select all and press “Ban”.
Find Remaining Spammers
I've seen instances that fixed the spam issue but began being hit later again. The spammers might use new E-Mails, so here is a way to find and block them anyway:
These spammers seem to be using the TOR Network as all of their IPs are TOR Exit Node IPs, hence an idea (with some collateral damage if executed) would be to ban all TOR exit node IPs for sign ups. I am personally against this idea as you'd also prevent users who simply wish to stay anonymous online (political refugees, leakers of important documents, etc.) from using your platform. For now, simply banning every user using a particular Spammer IP will not help and will merely ban users that try to stay anonymous! Not necessarily the spammers.
How To Block All Temp E-Mails in the Future
If you want to prevent this from ever happening again, you should block E-Mails from Temporary Mail providers all together:
In future updates on Mastodon, maybe Admins can simply click a button that says “Ban Temp E-Mail Providers” Automagically from the E-Mail Menu? There could be E-Mail categories that can be banned, such as temporary mails.
Why did this happen?
The real reason hundreds of us spent hours of our days during the spam on mitigating it is the following:
What makes Firefox better is that it's in fact the only major browser which develops their own web engine. Everything else is just Chromium reskinned. Edge? Microsoft Chrome. Opera? Chinese Chrome. Brave? Cryptobro Chrome.
What's the issue with every major browser being based on chromium? That Google singlehandedly controls the web standards. Yeah, that corporations whose profits come from violating everyone's privacy and that has already attempted to introduce various privacy invasive technologies.
And yes, Safari is also not Chromium, but it's Apple-only and while they release WebKit as open source, there are multiple reasons why no major browser is based on it.
So yeah, using Firefox is a better option if we want to avoid the web to be under Google's tyranny.
As I said in my comment, there are currently only three major web engines: blink (chromium, Google), WebKit (safari, Apple) and Gecko (Firefox, Mozilla).
Everything else is just based on one of those. The vast majority of them, in Google's.
if this counts as spam sorry not sorry. I created a tumblr clone two years ago. And then I conected it to the fedi like a year ago. its been hard, its buggy and its fun. Did a big redesign during christmas
@gabboman sí, había leído que Lemmy hace las cosas raras.
Bueno si federa bien con Mastodon ya es un buen avance.
Mucho mejor tener wafrn que Tumblr empiece a federar. No me creo que la misma empresa que intentó centralizar los blogs hace no tantos años ahora quiera federar por el bien de internet.
@ColinTheMathmo assuming the coin is a regular one, not modified in any way, then the only correct answer is the third one.
If the coin was modified to only have heads, that changes things of course. But that isn't a fact that we can obtain from the given information, because obtaining heads 100 times is not an unfeasible result with a regular coin.
Wafrn is a tumblr clone that connects to the fediverse (app.wafrn.net)
