I started down this road because I asked about seeing a full activity log on my own server instance. And it turns out you just can't.
My goal is to make it easy to stand up two separate mastodon instances on my laptop. Then I can get them to talk to reach other and observe what is actually happening. I think that'll teach me a lot
@jenniferplusplus@polotek@konnorrogers there's also other issues here: I could send you an activity that when you try to fetch, the DNS for the hostname in the ID points to an internal service (e.g., picking a private IP), now I can probe your internal network to some degree & potentially DOS an internal service on your network by spamming you activities from the outside.
Same reason all webhooks go through this module too!
We've got this cheap egg cooker that plays the loudest, most terrifying alarm you've ever heard when it's done cooking. My wife requested that I make it "less aggressive" so I hacked it into the most gentle egg cooker of ALL TIME
@StillIRise1963 the hard truth is that trusting white people, including white women, to collectively choose the logical best thing even for themselves over racism and white male supremacy is a perilous venture.
*I know she knows this better than me. I also know the "but not every white person" crowd can **** all the way off. I am white and I said what I said.
@StillIRise1963 yup. This has always been the case. Obviously, there are exceptions, even notable and important ones. But the reality is the horrifying racist and sexist hierarchy that was particularly strong in the 19th century South (but existed in all US territory) was enabled by white women who not only accepted it but fought to maintain it.
It couldn't have happened without those women. This doesn't mean the men aren't guilty AF, they are. But they couldn't do it without help.
Has anyone written about how textual generative AI feels strangely close to toxic masculinity in some respects? The absolute confidence in everything stated, the lack of understanding of the consequences of getting that confidence wrong for important questions, the semi-gaslighty feeling when it “corrects” itself when you call it out on something. It so often feels like talking to someone one would despise and avoid in “real life.” I’m curious if anyone did some writing on this.
@mwichary Gods yes! I was telling a friend only in the last month it sounds like a sales guy I used to know who would overconfidently state a wrong thing and I'd just have to bring in that one fact that showed it up "oh! of course of course yes, sorry about that, anyway <another wrong thing>"
Man, in any sane universe the mayor would understand that well funded libraries and strong social services are what help to prevent crime in the first place
I decided an accommodation I need to make for myself is to get a robot vacuum. Sometimes I really struggle to take care of myself and when the floor gets dirty it can stop me from taking care of other tasks. When my apartment is dirty I often internalize that and it makes me feel like a failure which further contributes to the downward spiral of not being able to take care of myself. I need help so I’m allowing myself to get help
@micah Yeah my apartment is almost entirely vinyl plank and linoleum with my one big area rug so the mop felt pretty essential. Does yours have obstacle avoidance? Supposedly this one does. Not sure how It’ll handle cables but I guess I’ll find out!
preparing another playlist to beam out live into the multiverse via KFSK’s transmitters across a bunch of remote ass islands in alaska (and kfsk.org), starts a little after 7 pm AK/ 8 PST
Left from #PyConUS about 33 hrs ago. Had a scratchy throat this morning w/ a negative test and just now have a positive test.
I went out with various groups, unmasked, throughout the weekend. This was a risk I was willing to take. Still, I'm glad I was wearing a mask in the convention center around folks who did not choose to take that same risk.
@tylerdave Personal problem, personal risk. As said: their are no public regulations and Corona is one out of many risks these days. Using Corona a single explanation for a mask mandate does not reflect reality, does not reflect science, does not entitle the PSF and organizers for for these measures. This is was intrusive and over our heads.
@tylerdave I'm really sorry to hear, that sucks and I hope you pull through it as well as you can!
As a side note, and as someone with family at PyCon this year, I really deeply appreciate you wearing your mask, for all the reasons you say. Thank you so much!
One of my favorites. It took about a year before I could make sense of what the hummingbirds were doing. And I suppose it took them a year to be completely fearless when I was around. It finally happened. If there’s something you think you can do, you probably can.
@Jgbird Beautiful photos! Jerome, your hummingbird shots are by far the best I've ever see! I'm always stunned when I see them in my feed. May I ask about your setup? Do you use a fill light or reflector at all?
@CodenameTim as far as I know, I’m not a DSF member yet. I thought that I’d applied, but perhaps I’m mistaken or was unsuccessful. Otherwise, I’m happy to help admin.
ich mach's mal konkret: Ich suche ab dem 01.10.2024 eine remote Festanstellung und möchte das Freelancerinnen-Dasein hinter mir lassen.
Ich kann: Digitale Barrierefreiheit von vorne bis hinten, Inklusion bzw. DEI umsetzen, Unterschiedlichste Menschen beraten und schulen, Medieninhalte erstellen und Software entwickeln (PHP + Ökosystem, Python, bereit für was Neues).
Kennt oder hat jemand eine passende Stelle frei? Im Thread sind noch ein paar mehr Infos.
ob unsere Personalys damit klar kommen, wenn ich ihnen einen Fediverse-Thread schicke
Warum den nicht?
Das ist ja das schöne an öffentlichen Fediversethreads, dass sie WIRKLICH öffentlich zugänglich sind (ohne Account bei irgend einem Datenhändler, ohne Tracking, einfach frei via URL öffentlich einsehbar.
@wolf Ich fände es total cool, wenn ich im Rahmen einer Bewerbung oder einer Empfehlung einen Fedi-Link geschickt bekäme. Mal sehen, wann das mal passiert.
