Did you know that you can integrate @codeberg with your @matrix chatroom, just like many people do for #Github integration?

Check out the simple procedure on the #Codeberg website:

Yet one reason more to make the switch if you are passionate for #FOSS 😃

TIL "/dev/full" to test/simulate no space left on device. awesome. didn't know that one.

I accepted the offer to update my Windows gaming box to Windows 11, confident that by now Microsoft had the time to iron out any glitches in the update procedure, but...

Identity Providers are basically recording your login and sharing this information with other pages. Here GMX sends your login ID "tpid" to Adition which shares its own cookie with several ad tech companies using a classic cookie matching. In this case only with your consent.

Other Publishers like Spiegel Online, BILD and SPORT1 track households based on the IP address (also with consent).

I need to defend Hetzner here, they just doing their job. DMCA was always a troll tool, platforms like GitHub, Hetzner etc just forwarding, without checking every detail because that would require lots of time and research.

Copyright law is still fundamentally broken and this is the real thing here, not that Hetzner took it down. We need more up-2-date laws and guidance how to deal with such cases and find workarounds instead of taking everything offline.

#Nitter.net is down due to #DMCA complaints

Garbage in AI out

In 1930 the Indiana Bell building was rotated 90°. Over a month, the structure was moved 15 inch/hr, all while 600 employees still worked there. There was no interruption to gas, heat, electricity, water, sewage, or the telephone service they provided.

I've sent a complaint to Streamlabs regarding them stealing OBS trademark and userbase and being absolute pricks, demanding they stop.

Do the same!

The network ID numbers (equivalent of an IP address or phone number) are publicly available, so an attacker could trivially inject fake traffic pretending to be real planes.

I dunno, I worry about this shit.

So from the reading I did a while ago on ADS-B, the new kinda-mesh-network-y protocol for planes to report their position to air traffic control, there is basically no security baked into the protocol.

Nothing's encrypted, nothing's signed. Packets may be passed on peer-to-peer to allow traffic data to get around gaps in ground station reception, with no way to authenticate that it came from the original plane untampered-with.

Of course Elsevier's "enhanced pdf viewer" tracks where you click, view, if you hide the page, etc. and then transmits a big base64 blob of events along with ID from University proxy when you leave. I'm sure straight to SciVal for sale.
Is this the way we want science to work?

👀 … if just 1,000 people renew/become a new Sustainer (at the very reasonable level of just $120/year), we meet the match target — that will instantly double all your donations!

If you didn't donate yet this season ,help us bring #Vizio and other #GPL violators to #copyleft compliance, and support #FOSS projects as well!

Gahhh I just hit "send" on the final book chapter and it's SCARY. I've submitted this thing about a billion times before, why does the last time feel so consequential?
