Yes, that's exactly it. I think the signaling was fairly clear.

Sounds about right. I'm fine with just cracking and separating a couple of eggs.

Turns out it has the same feature for the wantlist — in case you don't know what to buy next, I guess? Please tell me how to spend my money, Discogs! 😂

We have all been sucked in by those videos circulating online of “My $200 Shein Haul” or “Everything I bought for less than $5 from TEMU Review”

Um, no.

But I'm sure the fashion industry is just loving that there are commercial operators with even worse practices, making the constant seasonal churnout of new "fashion" look almost sustainable in comparison.

At least Thundermail would be part of a "Thunderbird pro" package, so you would still be free to use Thunderbird with any of the above alternatives. I'd think the opt-in pro service would serve as a revenue stream to keep development going in all products, including the open source mail client.

I was wondering about that too. A whole cup is... a lot. Rather than do the calculus I'd probably settle for egg white instead.

Ooh, I remember listening to this the first time. I picked it up from the library and had no idea what it would be. The music and Beth Gibbons' voice gave me chills, and still does.

This reminds me to find it on a good, hefty vinyl. Thanks!

Paramount: "Yeah, we're rolling back all our inclusion policies because the political winds have changed."

Star Trek: "So you liked Stacey Abrams as future Earth president? Guys, we're pitching our tent in the Democratic camp!"

It does what?! I've been happy enough using the web UI, but now I suppose I have to download the app 😂

My collection is only like a third of yours, so it's easier to keep an overview of things. And still I can squat in front of the vinyl shelf for several minutes without deciding 😆

Wtf, how have I not heard that writefreely hasn't federated since Xmas?

Oh, she clearly had a ball countering every single comment against Nightshade. This format is way off my usual media diet, but it was so worth it to see her smart, constructive takedown of the detractors.

 
 

So, what are you guys watching tonight?

 

Found this via Aurynn Shaw:

When following someone on a different server on the Fediverse, the remote server decides whether you are allowed to do so. This enables features like private accounts. Due to an implementation mistake, Pixelfed ignores this and allows anyone to follow even private accounts on other servers. When a legitimate user from a Pixelfed instance follows you on your locked fediverse account, anyone on that Pixelfed instance can read your private posts. You don’t need to be a Pixelfed user to be affected.

Pixelfed admins should update to v1.12.5 ASAP, but upgrading can be a major hurdle.

Importantly, your Mastodon or GoToSocial instance isn’t handing your private posts to any random server, just because it asks. The problem only becomes apparent when you have at least one legit accepted follower from a Pixelfed server. Now that server is allowed to fetch all your private posts. And when it knows the posts, it has to decide who to show them. When you accept a follower, you not only place your trust to keep a secret on them, but also on their admin and the software they are running.

Edited to add the last block quote.

 
 
 

WHAT IS THIS?

It's my status page where I plunk down random thoughts.

 
 
 
 

I'm just going to assume "Nicole"'s photos are scraped from somebody unrelated's socials. Has anybody tried digging online to find her* and find out if she knows she's become Fediverse Chicked?

* Presumed pronouns, I'm open to corrections.

 

No way this is 30 years old.

Take your "maths" and shove 'em, I said no!
