Stay secure with Windows 11, Copilot+ PCs and Windows 365 before support ends for Windows 10 | by Yusuf Mehdi.

You're doing OK lilies. Keep it up.
Dear 
@creativecommons ,
I read your article about your initiative for new licenses for dataset holders in the AI industry.
Let’s be clear: I do not want to re-license my hundreds of CC-By comic pages to please AI giants.
I wish you would support CC artists suffering from massive plagiarism. You should enforce your own existing licenses against AI mass crawling. It seems you’ve joined the battle only after the casualties and still managed to side with the wrong people.
"What does your infernal device do?" Captain Clever asked while locking the handcuffs.
"It's a hopebeam," Dr. Dastard said. "When I start it, everyone in the city will find hope that things can change."
"Why?"
"So they'll get disappointed and buy my ice cream to cope."
"Hm. How do I turn it on?"

Most tech companies have less than 20 percent of their technical roles filled by women. Why is that bad for the industry?

I know a number of people messaged me.
(I have been busy with various thing, so I have been less responsive than usual.)
I am going to try to respond to everyone.
If you messaged me and I don't respond to you by tomorrow — I may have missed your message. In that case, please reach out to me again.

@realmacdanDan Counsell, Sequoia, and Tahoe beta 2.
To be more fair to Tahoe, here's a version where I re-aligned the controls to accommodate the new metrics. I've also included Yosemite in this one. (I'd add more, but there's apparently a four-picture limit.)

Zohran Mamdani's victory over Andrew Cuomo is a historic turning point for Palestine in U.S. politics. It reflects a growing fatigue with Israel’s role in American life and the slow implosion of Zionism under the weight of its own excess.

if you're a unix-y person who writes software that reads and writes from places in a user's home directory, and you want to do something mac-adjacent, the correct idiom for paths in ~/Library/Application Support, ~/Library/Caches, etc is a reversed domain name. e.g. the way Pip does it, ~/Library/Caches/Pip, is wrong. The correct directory name would be ~/Library/Caches/io.pypa.pip
Does anyone sell a dedicated 433MHz weather sensor USB receiver? I know I can use a generic SDR + external antenna, but was hoping for a super compact + cheap solution.
Is upgrading FreeBSD as smooth as installing it?
In this video from community contributor RoboNuggie, we take a look at the upgrade process from FreeBSD 14.2 to 14.3 — starting with a test run in VirtualBox before moving to the main machine.
The goal? To explore how straightforward the process is and whether FreeBSD delivers a seamless upgrade experience in a real-world scenario.

🚨 We're still in need of more #snowflake extensions to help keep Iranians connected during this critical time.
If you're able, please consider running a Tor Snowflake proxy. This simple and safe action can make a significant difference in ensuring Iranians stay online. #KeepItOn

트랜스여성의 입장에서...

'트랜스젠더라고 생각되는 사람'을 괴롭히라구요? 실제로는 '이상적인 여성상'에서 벗어난 여성들이 피해를 당하고 있습니다

(to answer the inevitable question from mathstodon.xyz people: I *could* set up a PeerTube instance linked to mathstodon, but I want to be sure about how much work it is before seriously considering that)
@christianpChristian Lawson-Perfect
Just a thought, from a knuckle-dragging biology scientist. TL;DR: I believe there is scope to make the hosting of a peertube instance even more lightweight in the future.
I read some time ago of people using #webAssembly to transcode video in a user's web-browser. https://blog.scottlogic.com/2020/11/23/ffmpeg-webassembly.html
Since then, I believe #WebGPU has done/is doing some clever things to improve the browser's access to the device's GPU.
I have not seen any #peertube capability that offloads video transcoding to the user in this way.
I imagine, though, that this would align well with peertube's agenda of lowering the bar to entry into web-video hosting, so I cannot help but think that this will come in time.
My own interest is seeing a #Piefed (activitypub) instance whose web-pages could #autotranslate posts into the user's own language using the user's own processing power... One day, maybe!
Thank you again for all your hard work; it is an inspiration.

PNG is back!
https://www.programmax.net/articles/png-is-back/ (by Chris Blume)
A new PNG spec was just released! […]
[…] After 20 years of stagnation, PNG is back with renewed vigor!
What's new?
* Proper HDR support (future‐proof, too!)
* Finally recognizes APNGs (animations!)
* Officially supports Exif data
* General tidying up—fixing errata, clarifications, etc.

The most important thing to understand about Toronto’s approach to traffic safety is that - first and foremost - the life of any citizen is less important than the paint on any car.
Anyway, both of these pictures are across the street from a hospital and a school.
Note: If it bothers you I stated an intent to listen to Squarepusher today but then my "listening to" thread post wasn't Squarepusher: You could just go listen to "Circular Flexing" right now. Nothing prevents this

@mcc I once scrubbed my knee bloody while riding my bike back and forth in order to fetch my ticket (which I had forgotten) for a Square Pusher concert. My friend who was the original fan and the one who'd gotten me to buy a ticket was in tears of sadness due to SP's deviation from his original style. This is a song I made from a year old sample of that very friend, reminiscent of that moment, posing as "Circle Tweak".
