🇧🇷 Brazilian Federal Law 15211, called Digital Statute of Children and Adolescents, requires age verification of users on social networks, application stores and operating systems

The National Data Protection Agency defined the steps to implement age measurement solutions

by even considering this nonsense we're legitimising this nonsense.


Did you know that you can feed your beloved #pets 🐕🐶🐈🐱without giving them forest-destroying #palmoil? Boycott major brand #petfood and instead go #palmoilfree to protect the rainforest #BoycottPalmOil 🌴🩸☠️🤮🧐🙊⛔️ #Boycott4Wildlife @palmoildetect.bsky.social palmoildetectives.com/2021/02/…
in reply to Palm Oil Detectives

I’ve been really surprised to see where palm oil crops up prominently. A lot of snacks that come out of Southeast Asia things that I would normally really love to eat use that as an ingredient. So none of that for me.

We all do ourselves a favor by eating, un refined products. Pet food is notably an ultra refined product

that looks pretty cool! I've been wanting an openwrt official for a while.

I've been trying to get ipfire up and running on a rpi4 to use as a travel firewall but it looks like hardening openwrt with selinux and adding more firewall software is the way to go, so I'll probably take notes from turris. Thanks!

Edit: obviously the little pi won't be able to contend with that beast but still, its a fun little decent project 😄

This is a Japanese moss garden.

I was fascinated by these as a kid and tried to make a miniature moss garden inside a terrarium. Of course I was a child and didn't understand how to make such an environment self-sustaining. But it looked lovely for awhile!

@Ivy Blackledge Whitfield 2026 - Yes, the improvement since I stopped the drug regime has been significant. Sometimes I think the drugs are worse than the illness.

Soz, I left out the "National" bit.


I think this is actually a great analogy; cheap cameras gave us an infinite ocean of crap home videos but also Steven Spielberg and his whole generation of filmmakers grew up on backyard Super 8 cameras. Democratization of cameras didn’t kill cinema or big cine cameras; quite the opposite.
in reply to Yining Karl Li

This is like saying ordering sandwiches in Subway democratizes cooking and will give rise to the chef equivalent of Steven Spielberg.

@Gargron A surprising number of good chefs at some point in their life worked in a McDonalds or Subway or something like that.

Basically the Device level one (which is CA based but spreading) was because Meta considered it too much work to deal with and expensive to do (and wanted to avoid the bad results the UK is having to avoid financial liability). Thru a bunch of shell companies they paid dark money to lobby and finance candidates to push it thru so that Microsoft, Apple etc can pick up the tab instead of them for the mess.

the spectacled bear (oso de anteojos / Brillenbär / ukumari) is gladly relatively common where I live. He sometimes destroys corn fields but most people like and respect the bear as unlike Puma or Jaguar, this animal isn't percieved as a threat to humans or livestock.

I would add more proprietary software from the big companies. Linux will never become mainstream if you can't get Adobe's products or other big companies' software suites.

Or at least sodtware that is not free. I will gladly pay for a polished, well-made app.

We can't rely on "the best app ever on Linux"......in version 0.3.1 that looks like something from the Windows XP era. Sorry to say 🙂
