Make the net weird again. Hand write sites like it’s the 90s. Pick interesting domain names and make fan sites or random knowledge known to everyone. Don’t monetize anything. Spearhead new protocols like Gemini. Make mods for games on your site. Make FAQs for obscure games no one knows about. Make public software services available to anyone. Make a news site about a really random subject. Create music in all kinds of different formats. Most of all, do it because you want to!

I don't know any better locally encrypted alternatives.

@alshafei And Elon Musk just pledged to give $45 million a month to Trump #superPAC , so you know that means any and all #privacy laws will get vetoed by Trump if he wins.
Voting for Trump means #TechBros will make sure #SurveillanceCapitalism is here to stay

It is the "I do not test on older devices but my web developer has the newest multicore multigig machine but I do not test on older hardware .... beeecause I can analyze the performance of my animation-overloaded website by measuring their CPU temperature" mindset.
It's a shithole based on perspective.

“AI is not "democratizing creativity." It's doing the opposite”

> The AI companies, of course, do not much care if they take a wrecking ball to the already fragile creative economy.
" *Long-lived access tokens* are valid for 10 years. These are useful for integrating with third-party APIs and webhook-style integrations. "
Is this a good idea from #security perspecitve? I do not think so, but what is a better way?
Probably we need a standardized #API endpoint e.g. "renew-token" (like auto discovery)

Just for kicks, I set up a VNC listener (not a full-blown honeypot) on port 5900. For a whole ight, it was hit only 3 times and these were just scans - not login attempts. Probably not worth the bother to make a real honeypot for it.
What about the rest? According to Greynoise, all of them except Oracle get practically no attacks - but maybe I'm using Graynoise's service incorrectly.
Maybe I should set up a simple listener for Oracle connections and see if it gets anything meaningful overnight...
This article on the birth of planned obsolescence is worth a glimpse

The best thing with Vanilla Music App is that it allows browsing through a directory (folder) on the file system.
That is missing in all other players that I've tried.
Nuff said.

Vanilla Music player
**Note:** As of 23. Jun 2024, Vanilla Music is *no longer* available in the Google Play store:
I simply don't have time to comply with random policy changes and verification requests.
Any release you see there is probably an ad-infested fork uploaded by someone else.

Without promoting it, here’s the Right-Wing plan to deconstruct the administrative state by firing qualified government experts and replacing with Trump loyalists and religious zealots.
“The Project 2025 document outlines four main aims: restore the family as the centrepiece of American life; dismantle the administrative state; defend the nation’s sovereignty and borders; and secure God-given individual rights to live freely.”

i'm really excited to show https://compost.party to the world! it's a web server running on an old, broken phone, getting energy from the sun using one of those portable solar chargers that you may also have lying around.
it's a real oddity and a real beauty
### Integration quality scale
The Integration Quality Scale scores each integration based on the code quality and user experience. Each level of the quality scale consists of a list of requirements. If an integration matches all requirements, it's considered to have reached that level.
