WOW! Facebook is testing limiting the number a links people can share without a Meta Verified subscription.

Some users will be limited to sharing just TWO links per month in organic posts, without a Mera Verified account!

Meta confirmed the following to me:

“This is a limited test to understand whether the ability to publish an increased volume of posts with links add additional value for Meta Verified subscribers.”

The “developer”’s name is “llmfinity Studios LLC”. Hard pass for AI garbage.



@torproject Hello TorProject, with the new AI-addicted Firefox CEO getting into office, I was thinking - what browsers are there that respect their user's privacy? Naturally Tor pops to mind, but some times the Tor network is slow and a lot of critical use cases don't trust it (banks etc) so I was wondering: Is it possible to use Tor exactly as it is minus connecting to the Tor network? If not why not?

If you are looking for a browser with similar privacy protections to Tor Browser that doesn't use the Tor network, we recommend Mullvad Browser from @mullvadnet

What it takes to run a sub 3:30 Marathon?

The last running plan that I finished this year was a 22 weeks Marathon plan, below are some stats:

Total distance: 1,388 km
Total time: 136:45:16
Strength training: 1,027 sets total
Fastest avg pace: 4:29 /km
Longest run (not race): 32 km
PBs: 5k @ 20:10

I finished the race strong in 3:29:38 as planned with 1.5% negative splits. I was very happy with how the entire race went, my fueling strategy, and everything in between 😀

I'm now chasing a sub 3 hrs PB. Do you think it's realistic?
What is your next race / running goal?

#running #marathon

Moha reshared this.

in reply to Moha

From 3.30 to sub 3 is a mighty jump - but if that your goal then go get it 🏃🏻
in reply to Lee

@Lee6 I know, I actually think my chances are below 50% to make that happen. But the bigger the goal the more it's motivating.
@Lee


Someone please do me a favor, if you’re motivated — download and play this for me: xra.itch.io/uji. As I’m not on Windows or Linux it is not available to me. But the author is responsible for Memory of a Broken Dimension, so I’m very curious about it. 🥲
in reply to Eric Carl

it works with wine fine, if you're on apple, that should run alright.


The United Kingdom is coming back to Erasmus+!

Negotiations for the United Kingdom’s association to Erasmus+ in 2027 have been concluded.

It will offer significant opportunities across education, training, sports, and youth, giving people the chance to connect across borders once again.

This follows the EU-UK Strategic Partnership agreed at the first ever Summit in May.

A step forward for youth, education, and cooperation, together again. 🤝

in reply to Veza85UE

@Veza85UE @po3mah @Tarbh I would like the UK to rejoin. We have shared history, shared interests, and shared families. By all means, clown on Cameron, Farage, Johnson and May, but there's no reason to punish people who wanted to remain in the EU.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron @po3mah @Tarbh Our shared history in the EU is not one of kumbaya and happy clappy cooperation, why pretend otherwise? Do you miss their EUCO veto ? For all the great work of a handful of civil servants and judges who understood the 🇪🇺 project and built the Single Market, Brits NEVER accepted what the EU is.* I lived there at the time, I have enough reasons to doubt this notion of a few bad apples. The sense of entitlement and exceptionalism is pervasive in both camps.

Enough people have taken this premise apart that I don't have to do a whole thread on it.

But I did want to point out this paragraph, that is one of the most Anti-African things I've read recently.

This long-termism and great replacement nonsense is seeping into brains and cooking them.

It's rather very ironic that the author argues about not having new ideas in an article based on mostly disproven or at best controversial and conspiracy ideas. Cringe 😬

I was taking apart my robot vacuum to try and figure out why it thought the suction fan wasn't running when it in fact was running.

I dunno if this had anything to do with it but glad I found it and that I had a spare on hand.

So Firefox is going full ai. Who do we use instead who is ethical and NOT using ai? Something comparable & with a good ui for new users.

(no to Linux)

in reply to Gwenfar

librewolf is very similar with lots of the same privacy features, though I've noticed people saying that it relies on firefox under the hood.

Opera is also still pretty good.



Now here's a song worth knowing about!

Latest Steam Deck update will warn you if an Xbox controller needs upgrading gamingonlinux.com/2025/12/late…

#Steam #SteamOS #SteamDeck #Xbox

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

this was a issue I had for a while when trying to connect controllers to my Steam Deck
I knew it was possible they just wouldn't appear in the Bluetooth menu or would freak out when connecting

Turns out they just needed a firmware update even though they where brand new



Thinking of using a Raspberry Pi as your daily driver? These Linux distro options might surprise you. 🖥️

itsfoss.com/raspberry-pi-deskt…

#linux #raspberrypi

in reply to It's FOSS

as the article talks about a distro for a child, I recommend a lot #debianedu .
(First of all I think 4 years old is too early to get contact with computers, even with screens in general)
My 11 years old kid has local access (no web) to tons of material about science, drawing, programming... And he is always discovering new secrets or option there.
For sure raspberry pi is a good platform for scratch, laby, colobot... Using #debian 😀


if you’re (rightly!) pissed at Firefox for doubling down on AI nonsense, as a web developer I would humbly request that you consider trying Waterfox, Orion or Safari before you move to something based on Chromium; Google are already too powerful, don’t hand the web to them

We noticed a rising interest regarding the use of AI in browsers. To be clear about our position on this: Zen currently is disabling all AI features included in Firefox and will continue to do so.
