I experimented mixing a traditional Japanese obi into (knot is kichiya musubi). Actually a mix of several cultures with Arab keffiyeh and South Asian kurta shirt. I made the orange LED lights on the heels of my shoes for a touch

Back shot of me wearing an orange beanie, black and white checkered keffiyeh, white kurta shirt, black and white kaku obi with orange belt over it, white techwear style pants and white sneakers with orange LED lights on the heels.

Today October 21st is
Global Encryption Day! 🔒🎉

This is a good time to remember that encryption is essential to online security and digital privacy.

Despite some governments pushing hard to weaken it, we must remind them that we all need encryption, and especially end-to-end encryption, to stay safe online 💚

Privacy is a human right
and end-to-end encryption is one of the best tool we have to enforce that right.

privacyguides.org/articles/202

Encryption Is Not a Crime

Encryption is not a crime, encryption protects us all. Encryption, and especially end-to-end encryption, is an essential tool to protect everyone online. Attempts to undermine encryption are an attack to our fundamental right to privacy and an attack to our inherent right to security and safety.

Amazon’s Ring is partnering with Flock—a network used by ICE, police & feds—in a major privacy red flag 🚨

Cops can now request Ring footage, expanding AI surveillance into our neighborhoods 🎥
Flock tracks vehicles & uses biased AI to ID people ⚠️

Given Ring’s privacy failures, this is deeply alarming 😠

This mastodon client came to me in a fever dream.
I had to waste the whole day, but now you too can bunnyhop through your fedi feed.
https://files.burning.homes/experimental/hall-of-toots/index.html

* webgl required
* mobile somewhat supported
* yes this html file is a whole client and the entire source
* it would run smoother and look better if you launch it locally so it don't have to bypass CORS, but oauth won't work and you'll have to use access token
* you can click urls and images
* you don't really have to login, and can just hop around the public timelines (i.e. Instance = https://mastodon.social , empty token, Federated timeline, Use Access Token)
* but I'm too tired to support CW and sensitive, so it'll kinda be full of porn
* admins will hate you
* 429 error means you won
* I am in dire need of salvation

ICE raids uniquely harm queer immigrants, but LGBTQ+ communities are fighting back - LGBTQ Nation

One-third of queer immigrants live in California, making the state an interesting test case for the ongoing fight against Trump's anti-immigrant policies.

Hey all, there are some photos from a hike in the

Actually we thought that it would just take us less than an hour - but it wasn't simply a straight walk :-D

It was raining from time to time - which was indeed pretty cool. A) there was noone around except us and B) the colors were often just insane. Fully saturated green, the brown from the wood - and sometimes it even was a bit misty

Nestled deep within a lush, verdant forest, a rustic wooden staircase winds its way upward, inviting adventurers to explore further. The airy canopy above is a tapestry of intertwining branches, draped with soft mosses that hint at the damp, fertile environment. Sunlight filters through sporadically, casting dappled shadows on the earthy path below. The staircase, constructed from weathered logs and planks, blends seamlessly into the natural surroundings, as if carved by the forest itself. Fallen leaves and twigs scatter the ground, adding texture to the scene, while the surrounding slopes are adorned with vibrant green moss and ferns. The atmosphere is one of quiet mystery and serene solitude, perfect for a contemplative hike through nature's embrace.A quiet forest trail winds through a lush, green woodland, where dappled sunlight filters through the dense canopy above. The path is partially obstructed by a fallen tree, its jagged, weathered stump and scattered bark hinting at a recent storm or the slow passage of time. Vibrant ferns, rich in emerald hues, cluster around the base of the tree, thriving in the damp, shaded environment. The surrounding forest is thick with tangled undergrowth and towering trees, their trunks cloaked in moss and shadows.

The cat’s out of the bag.

I’m co-founding @gofedi, a new Fediverse hosting service—based in Canada, with all data hosted in Canada.

My co-founder is @rjbasitali, formerly of @spacehost. He’s moved on from SpaceHost to build this new venture with me.

We began working on it back in August. And today, it’s officially out of stealth.

Been working on getting Slidgnal, a #XMPP to #Signal gateway built on #Slidge back up and running with a mix of Go and Python; after a recent spree of work, we have fairly good support for 1-on-1 chats with reactions, attachments, etc. all working. Couldn't have been done without the great work by @nicoco and tulir (tulir.fi on bsky).

If you're running your own #XMPP server and are looking to bridge your #Signal contacts over, give it a go, repo is here https://codeberg.org/slidge/slidgnal and Docker/Podman or PyPi-based installs are well-supported! Group support is up next!

Summary card of repository slidge/slidgnal, described as: A feature-rich Signal to XMPP gateway

I have nothing against liquid glass in macOS Sequoia, but the overall quality of the OS running on my MacBook Pro M3 has really degraded. Doesn't feel as polished as it used to, and I find myself frustrated at times when the computer locks up for seconds or things like the touch button stop working.
