Instagram blocked the hashtag not long ago, and Twitter too.

Don't forget that 😉

Unpopular opinion: big individual cars (SUVs) are not about families. They're about bad drivers who want to focus the damage from accidents on other parties.

@mgorny Depends on the brand. Advantage could be that it's easier to enter the car e. g. for people with mobility aids.

Who came up with this brilliant idea that temporarily uninstalling an app on removes all the data without warning?

On Windows, the uninstallers usually either ask or leave all the data behind.

On Unix, most of the cruft is left in home directory forever, even completely disposable stuff like ~/.cache.

But Android is better, "we just removed all your secrets without warning, enjoy!"

Sigh.

@mgorny On Lineage OS an app can be uninstalled while selecting that app data should not be removed I think.

Autofreie Innenstädte sind so schlimm, da tanzen die Leute einfach auf den Plätzen!
Und überall stehen Fahrräder herum, wo sonst auch ein paar Autos parken könnten.

Rechtsanwalt in den USA: Wenn Künstliche Intelligenz nach hinten losgeht

Ein Rechtsanwalt in New York ließ ChatGPT Präzedenzfälle für eine Klage raussuchen. Doch die Künstliche Intelligenz denkt sich Urteile einfach aus. Es ist nicht der einzige Fall, in dem KI negativ auffällt. Von A. Passenheim.

    I don't know if this is a bad idea:
    What if Gnome or someone made GTK compatible with Android. I don't think it is currently. There are so many great Apps built with GTK, which could or would be popular on Android phones.

    @silasvt Not for Android but Postmarket OS should work.

    PSA: It looks like mastodon.social has implemented hCAPTCHA on their signups yesterday.

    So, if you have limited / suspended mastodon.social because of the spam issue, you may wish to reconsider this.

    This will also likely mean that spammers will move to different instances (already seeing them targeting mastodon.world).

    You may wish to consider implementing hCAPTCHA yourself to protect your own instance, and here is the relevant PR:

    https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25019

    The reason I'm suggesting this, is because if you are a small/medium instance with open registrations, and spammers find and abuse your instance, I imagine that other instances will limit/suspend your instance without hesitation, given how willing some were to limit/suspend the much larger mastodon.social.

    But do note this comment on the PR:

    “To give some context to people seeing this: this is an emergency feature backport from Glitch SOC to help mitigating an ongoing spam wave, this feature may not make it in a next release, or with significative changes.”

    Edited to add: multiple people have rightly commented on the accessibility concerns with hCaptcha: hCaptcha is really really really bad for blind and visually impaired people.

    Please have a look at this excellent reply for more details:

    @michael See https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25019#issuecomment-1551272335

    "hCaptcha proves a significant invasion into privacy as it leaks PII to a third party without consent of the user. The third party being resident in the United States being subject to the CLOUD act which is and always has been fundamentally incompatible with GDPR also means that this violates GDPR for all users resident in the EU facing this registration form. The lack of consent makes this especially critical."

    And so it begins in full force.

    Today, both Mailchimp and Hootsuite (very popular tools which I happen to use for @thunderbird newsletters and social media) invited me to use to compose Facebook posts, tweets, and emails, respectively.

    I won't be using AI tools for writing. But you should know that it's starting to get exponentially more difficult knowing if the content you're absorbing is from a human or from something like .

    @killyourfm @thunderbird Usually sentences from ChatGPT are repetitive and the sentence structure is wrong (even if not detected by zerogpt).

    When is your wallet ready for a Steam Deck 2?

    HugeGameArtGD,
    @HugeGameArtGD@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

    @boilingsteam Most Steam games are bought on Steam so I don't think they have to release a new console with new features (except upgrading existing hardware).

    @boilingsteam "The decrypted keys facilitate copyright infringement by permitting users to play pirated versions of Nintendo’s copyright-protected game software on systems without Nintendo’s Console TPMs or systems on which Nintendo’s Console TPMs have been disabled."

    Is it even effective copyright protection if the keys are stored on Nintendo's consoles? Someone could copy the game and play it on a different console I guess.

    @hmans Should be fine if pull requests just fix typos or description is in the title (some developers seem to ignore prs with typos completely).

    @hmans Probably because of https://mindly.social/@EgyptianAphorist/110277576472353615

    Instead I tried to sign up for TruthSocial yesterday using Tor but the verification code I got per email couldn't be verified (also website mentions registration are closed which seems to be wrong).
    Bluesky is similar, I would only post there to mention alternatives.
