it's kind of funny how many people, myself included, just never use the game's official terminology and instead refer to the icons it uses.
there's a skill in state of decay 2 called "craftsmanship". the icon is of a hammer. i refer to it as "the hammer". unfortunately none of my current survivors have the hammer so i need to find a hammer book
Wrote a blog post, instead of another GitLab Snippet, on upgrading our two #Tor relays to use the new Happy Families feature that was released yesterday in Tor 0.4.9.5. All in all, it was extremely uncomplicated to set up, and maybe that can encourage more people to try it out sooner rather than later! 😎
Awesome to see more operators upgrading to #Tor 0.4.9.5, but also to see the number of Happy Families increasing! Over the weekend, the following has happened:
- We have gone from 185 to 952 unique relays uploading Happy Families keys. Of those, 104 are Happy Families only.
- Of the Directory Authorities, Babelmoo and Bastet joined Moria1 in running 0.4.9. We need consensus method 35 for HF to show up in microdescriptors.
The United Kingdom is escalating its censorship and mass surveillance. When Mullvad tried to criticise this with the TV ad “And Then?”, it was banned on British television.
I have been trying the #Konqueror web browser for a while (from #KDE @kde). It works pretty well so far. However, #Nextcloud @nextcloud complains it is not a supported browser each time I log in. I ignore the warning because I haven't seen issues so far.

Debian's official tagline is "Universal Operating System". It's more than just a tagline: it's a deeper concept that underpins the very nature of Debian as a project.
Matrix (specifically Element with Spaces) is the only platform that will one day provide an experience similar to what Discord provides today on an open, federated, secure protocol.
Everything else is a distraction in my eyes, even if there are still some rough edges here and there today.
can’t wait for this to break a ton of mods. But it’ll be worth it I think. After all, with the recent de obfuscation it should surely be easy to fix them?
While not in game dev as a dev who's looked a bit into it (work does offer us copilot if we wish to use it)...it's worth noting this is likely to make some junk, some possibly really interesting games....but if no one actually checks it there will be a slew of some very insecure/inefficient games. AI can be a great tool for certain applications but it is limited to it's model learning and goes for make it work, not secure or efficient (without hounding it)
Standard.site provides shared lexicons for long-form publishing on AT Protocol. Making content easier to discover, index, and move across the ATmosphere.
instead of being defensive we could take this as an opportunity to see that there is a lack of communication on a bunch of fronts. The roll out of quote post support across the fediverse has been great to see but there are a lot of frustrations with it still and I think a lot more could be done in future standard upgrades with inter-project communication

My #nextcloud setup needs some rework. After seeing latest video from @nextcloud I am thinking about a new instance of my year-old current one. There is no real need, but I would like to clean up my installation with newest architecture and maybe start integrating talk what I missed all the times. What is the recommended installation method nowadays? AIO? Apache, mariadb, php vanilla? Any hints welcome. Its a two user and some guests install. Data privacy is highest requirement.
Most people probably think that the rainforest of central and west Africa, the second largest in the world, has been around for millions of years. However recent research suggests that it is mostly…
🔨 Luditas <distinto> tecnofobia: eran personas trabajadoras organizadas contra el despojo capitalista
Contra el mito de que rompían máquinas por miedo al progreso, los luditas del siglo XIX resistían un sistema que usaba la tecnología para destruir sus medios de vida. No era odio a las máquinas, era odio a las relaciones de poder que las máquinas imponían.
A menudo se tacha a los luditas ingleses de tecnófobos chiflados. En realidad, se trataba de un movimiento obrero premarxista que daba prioridad a las personas y a la naturaleza sobre la propiedad privada.
tengo bastantes dudas de que se pueda equiparar el avance técnico contra el que estaban los luditas con la amenaza de la IA. Lo primero al fin y al cabo liberaba de trabajos manuales penoso y eso puede ser bueno, lo segundo nos libera de pensar y eso se está demostrando que no es nada bueno.
se podría aplicar tb al uso de rrss privativas? cuando argumentamos como dañan el tejido socioafectivo, manipulan y degradan la salud mental de muchas personas, infinitas veces sacan la palabra tecnofobia o antidesarrollo para desacreditarlo... cuando solo señalamos como esa forma de usar la tecnologia se usa para favorecer el status quo y perpetuar violencias.. Por no hablar q considerar tecnologia solo a máquinas y lo occidental nos parece terriblemente colonial y patriarcal..
las (no tan adecuadamente llamadas) IA benefician enormemente de las estructuras que impulsaron anteriormente las redes sociales y estas tecnologías digitales anteriores, etc. Por eso para nosotres el elemento clave de la discusión estaría en las inequitativas relaciones de poder desde las que nacen y profundizan.
@ColectivoLoairas p. d.: de hecho muchas veces en los artículos o publicaciones que escribimos solemos llamar tecnologías digitales, justo con el ánimo de no invisibilizar las muchas otras formas de tecnologías existentes. Seguramente alguna vez lo omitimos y aún así se mantiene en la base de los que hacemos.
esto que compartió hace un tiempo @rvfeh como una campaña simbólica contra la IA me pareció muy interesante: quili.ai/
Yo lo vivo como un asalto existencial, contra el planeta y humanes. Además del impacto extractivista, ecológico y la alianza tecnofascista subyacente, todo el impacto cognitivo que genera, la idea de automatización, me genera absoluto rechazo. Y eso comparto con mis círculos.
Very sad to see how AI kills everything nice. But instead of murdering terminators, it is killing via some AI bros that want to boost their GitHub stats (or whatever the reason for their PRs is).
it's about time for them to limit PRs to humans-only and forbid the use of AI in either writing code or text.
let's be real, whoever wants to contribute will take an extra step to learn how the code works (or be open to it), instead of just submitting AI slop. they will be interested in writing things themselves, instead of using AI.
Just so disabled people in the UK know, if Reform UK get in, they would repeal the Equality Act, describing it as divisive and a political fashion statement. If you aren't interested in politics, it's worth bearing in mind that politics is interested in you - the immigrant carers that help you, your benefits, your access to work, your right to live free from discrimination, companies' obligations for accessibility, Uber's obligation to take guide dogs.

Q: Does anyone know of any EU-based company out there advising large organisations how to detach from big tech?
I know a couple of people in large organisations where removing reliance on US software is suddenly the main talking point at board meetings, but without a professional organisation to point them in the right direction it'll never move past a conversation.
Thanks! I'm not even sure such a large advocacy company exists (hello @autonomic ), but I know from years of experience that if you come to the door of a public body or a university, you need to be trustworthy to their way of working.
I was working in a university and present for the meetings when Microsoft pushed out Google and became the main campus technology. They talked a good talk.
I think these large bodies are a little bit lost right now and would gladly welcome guidance.
> I think these large bodies are a little bit lost right now and would gladly welcome guidance.
i don't doubt it. the big tragedy is that, at least around here, universities were the ones with the most expertise in running their own services. at least until some kind of management virus went around that convinced upper management otherwise. of what i'm not sure. maybe that it was cheaper (nicer?) to continually buy services from big corporations compared to retaining knowledge in-house
hope this wave of questioning past choices reverses the current state of megacorp entrenchment
@cblgh I think it might. I worked in Trinity College Dublin until 2020, and even as recently as then the school of computer science had refused to join the integrated system and had their own internal servers and systems. And then, tragically, they were pushed into it in 2021! I was also around to witness IBM and Microsoft pushing their lobby in the university; they were very aggressive and omnipresent.
But hopefully there is enough recent memory and experience that this choice can be reset.
It depends on the kind of detachment you're looking for. We do custom software and cloud-agnostic migrations (so hosting of cloud software, not standard software like Office 365 but we do offer/suggest alternatives for some software, e.g., self-hosted Gitlab instead of Github).
We have been looking at the European market and migrated our own stuff away from US providers to European #Scaleway. We're advising our customers (mid-large Dutch companies) on similar migrations, and have the past decade advocated for using standards-based cloud services to facilitate switching (e.g., using Kubernetes over ACS or ECS and plain Postgres over Aurora).
@michael I should be clear: I'm not looking. Last week, I spoke to two people. One a prominent staff member in a university, the other the director of a large arts organisation. Both keenly asked me to suggest open source alternatives to Google/Microsoft.
I could give them information, but I know how procurement works in large orgs. What they need is a consultancy that can offer a package as an alternative to existing services.
It sounds like you may do some of this. What is your company?
Open Circle Solutions gelooft dat maatwerk een voorsprong geeft. We bouwen applicaties en bedenken toepassingen die vernieuwend zijn en jou zo onderscheiden ten opzichte van je concurrenten.
Btw is there easy way to use Nextcloud as SSO provider for Peertube? It would be cool if you could easily host a Peertube next to Nextcloud and allow existing Nextcloud users to log in. Maybe even share clips uploaded to Nextcloud via Peertube with with add-on..
