Most distros build for ARM now. Disregard, I just realized we’re talking about Macs. 🤦

And almost invariably they act like I am asking them to give me their firstborn.

You can’t infer that they are being possessive, when an equally possible explanation for that reaction is that they are offended on behalf of their community members, who would not want a unilateral consolidation of their community into another community that they feel no connection to.

Just because you mod a community doesn’t mean you get to make the decision about where people gather for that community. When instances have different moderation rules and different vibes, you must have a consenting userbase in order to make decisions like that.

a community I have.

Try not to think of it that way. The community is the people who subscribe, post and comment. You don’t own them, you just take out the trash. If they are happy to move then good, if not then don’t force it. And you can always just make a second community on the other instance and hand over the old instance to the people who want to stay there.

clearly people like it

It’s the network effect that people like, just like every other social platform before it.

What a misleading headline. “You’ll probably be protected,” makes it sound like the method is mostly working, so don’t worry about it. But that’s not what the article is about at all.

It should be titled, “You’ll be protected probabilistically, and most data-collectors are not telling you what the probability parameter is that they are using.” The study shows that users can only make good and informed choices about their data when presented with this parameter, and an explanation of its meaning.

Here is the actual source article with a chart of the results: https://caaneo.ca/magazine/drive/caa-conducts-first-large-scale-winter-ev-test-drive-evaluate-cold-weather/

You are part of the problem.

This wasn’t some complicated edge-case, it was gross incompetence by SSL.com.

If I was a browser or OS manufacturer I would be revoking their root certificates over this.

Mastodon for personal use: not so much as replies don’t federate with main tweet.

Didn’t this get fixed very recently? I think it can fetch all replies at the time of loading the thread now.

tcpdump that shit

It’s pronounced “STOP RESISTING BANG BANG”

I thought everyone learnt during Covid not to have open zoom calls.

It’s the one where Barclay gets obsessed with his Holodeck program.

Identifying an out-group by an immutable attribute of their person, and then railing against them as inherently inferior is fascist behaviour.

J. K. Rowling is a transphobe, a bigot and a fascist.

Signal explicitly doesn’t allow its files to be uploaded to iCloud. You practically will be fine using it on iOS. Unless you are in China which has its own iCloud/Apple servers, or the UK where Apple disabled advanced data protection.

What difference does ADP make if your Signal chats are never stored in iCloud? Are they stored in cloud backups?

300ms refers to the window of time that the vulnerable DLL has elevated privileges and therefore the window that an attacker has to exploit it.

It doesn’t mean that the whole compromise from the start of an exploit chain takes 300ms. Badly written (clickbait) headline.

People on the Turkey subreddit were running a campaign to move from X to Bluesky

I see so much astroturfing for Bluesky. They have good PR people who know what buttons to push, clearly.

RepRap is the OG of hobbyist FDM printing.
