Matrix is a certified moderation disaster. The catlang community is bootstrapping one rn and everytime someone does something it just punches a new hole in the process of managing it.
This is just a fucking shitshow. "It's decentralized" does not explain why server wide permission management is so shit ass.
@neauoire no, no, no, no Devine. This isn't about the bridge. This is about the fact that like, people on the instance can create spaces the server owner has no power to control.
Like, the fy channel that just got made, neither I nor Boonie could step in and do any moderator activities. In fact, Boonie doesn't even know a room or space got created on his server 😟

Wenn ich dich richtig verstanden habe, dann wolltest du einen Post zusätzlich an eine e-Mail Adresse versenden, richtig?
Gmail kann Mail von einen Mail-Server ablehnen. So eine Ablehnung kann verschiedene Gründe haben. Das kann dein Admin, mit mehr oder weniger Aufwand, beheben.
Die Gmail-Adresse war nur ein Test. Wenn ich testweise auch an mein Email-Postfach sende, klappt das. Letztendlich wäre es eine GMX-Adresse.

i wish physical media for PC games would make a comeback. there's something really fun about going to cashies and browsing through a rack of cheap old games, picking one, bringing it home, popping it in the xbox 360/PS2/etc, and having instant access to a game you now own forever. maybe your parents are driving from perth to melbourne and they want to buy you a DS game you can play for the next four days while you're on the road with no internet.
you have a lot more freedom with PC games -- mods, downgrades, save editing -- but unless the game you want is on GOG or itch, you can't just buy and own a game. even with GOG/itch's DRM-free downloads, you still need to download something.
optical media sucks, i know, but couldn't we have read-only USB sticks or something? can't i have a shelf full of my favourite games?
the last time i used a physical PC game was fallout 4. my mum got me a copy for my birthday, and it came in a cool box with a fold-out skill tree. i put the disc in, and after registering the steam code and inserting the disc, my DVD drive roared to life and the install progress bar flew along the screen!... right up to the 4.7GB mark, at which point it slowed to a crawl as the remaining ~25 GB downloaded over ADSL. i left the computer running and watched TV for the next eight or so hours.
the game used steam as DRM. i could play the game and even re-download it without the disc. the disc only sped up the installation (and now that i have home fiber internet, it would actually slow it down). the disc was useless for anyone who didn't own the game on steam. i couldn't lend it to someone or sell it later. it was even less "real" than a switch 2 game key card. a disc with a fraction of a game and a steam code that tied it to one account.
now PC games don't even have that anymore.
I'd love to see custom-designed USB sticks with the game burned on.
Can you imagine traveling to someplace new, and before you leave for home, pick up a game cooked up by a local to remember the place by? 
Not sure where #Google asked for feedback about their developer verification program, but they surely didn't talk with #FLOSS devs, civil society, privacy organisations or their #Android users
#FDroid did since September, and interacted with folks in the Fediverse, forum, email and in person
They all voiced one opinion: "developer verification must be stopped"

🤖 "Somos ciborgs": Donna Haraway lo dijo en 1985 y 40 años después sigue siendo radical
Su Manifiesto Cíborg propone un feminismo que rechaza los dualismos que han servido para dominar. El ciborg es bastardo del militarismo y el capitalismo patriarcal, pero los bastardos suelen ser infieles a sus orígenes. “Las máquinas están en todas partes, pero son invisibles”.

¿Qué fusiones peligrosas y poderosas siguen explorando para tejer "un mundo monstruoso sin géneros"?
Donna Haraway, la filósofa que en 1985 se anticipó a Neuralink asegurando que todos nos convertiríamos en cíborgs: “Seremos quimeras, híbridos de máquina y organismo”
En la década en que Blade Runner y sus replicantes cambiaron para siempre la forma de imaginar el futuro, una bióloga con vocación literaria sacudió los cimientos de la filosofía feminista. Su nombre: Donna Haraway.Manu Collado (La Vanguardia)
