I guess now fedi has a better verification system than :birdsite:

🤔

@robryk oh I just meant the accounts, but yeah an org's social media presence in their own domain is the way to go.

rysiek,
@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@ButterflyOfFire better.

rysiek,
@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@robryk nope. I am saying: the ability to verify your account by having a verified link to another source of identity that might already be established (even if it's not your own domain) is better than whatever :birdsite: is doing these days.

@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

obviously the whole :birdsite: verification thing could have been trivially solved by hexagonal NFT profile pics. :thaenkin:

So apparently there is this report about that's been published about a month ago:
https://nitter.net/brendancarrfcc/status/1636773917670137856

Try as hard as I might, I just cannot download it. Found the source of the link in some other place, the link is the same. But te download always fails with around 200KiB to go, for example with wget:

> Read error at byte 23232234/23497814

or curl:

> curl: (56) OpenSSL SSL_read: Connection reset by peer, errno 104

Edit: people were able to download it, and shared it. Thanks!

@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

Yes, I also tried using the browser to display the PDF directly, and tries a browser download manager, too.

All to no avail.

@Codified that worked. Thanks!

@wariat ciekawe. Mam już, inni podesłali. Ale dzięki za chęć pomocy. 🙂

It's only a Quiche if it's made in the Quichard region of Lorraine. Otherwise it's just an egg flan with assorted green vegetables in it.

So clearly Coronation Egg Flan is not made to be eaten. It's designed to be thrown uncooked at the King by a Flanneur.

So i was able to fix my GNOME (Fedora) failing to log in by changing the firewall rules on the loopback interface (what the…)
Running "iptables -I INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT" was all it took, after a few weeks of having to log in by first putting gnome-session into failsafe mode. I would never have guessed this one.

@taziden @axx I am going to bet systemd is somehow to blame

@taziden @axx we've all been system'd.

By the way, this is a way better flying dildo:

First, it's waaay cheaper. Second, it's did not explode and generally worked as expected. Third, it brought whimsy and laughter, instead of dread about a space race fueled by hyper-capitalism and billionaire ego-tripping.

Schumacher family planning legal action over AI ‘interview’ with F1 great
https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/apr/20/schumacher-family-planning-legal-action-over-ai-interview-with-f1-great

> Michael Schumacher’s family are planning legal action against a German weekly magazine over an “interview” with the seven times Formula One champion that was generated by artificial intelligence.

Who the fuck thought this is a good idea?

rysiek,
@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@jens @trebach I think the Monkhouse example at least gets pretty close here: it's done with the explicit consent of the family and in order to raise awareness about an issue that can be reasonably assumed to have been important to him.

rysiek,
@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@jens @trebach sure. It seems to be somewhere in a valley that is quite uncanny.

rysiek,
@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@jens @trebach yeah, but that's quite different.

@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@robryk can there be slander if there is nothing explicitly negative about the subject?

rysiek,
@rysiek@mstdn.social avatar

@robryk I think the crux here is that there is definitely harm, and that it does not fit nicely into the categories of harm we already have.
