Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.
Looks like the computer was in regular use until 2003.
(File Manager in Windows 3.11 can’t show these dates right!)
In the Fediverse track at SFSCon, André Menrath spoke about:
Interoperability of Events in the Fediverse: Status Quo and Vision
Yes, totally. The thing is, it is all unclear. But it might have been designed from the very start to take more of these concerns into consideration. This is an area of interest and focus for me, in my participation at https://coding.social where I elaborate on a universal soluton development methodology called Social experience design. The mission is to reimagine social, and envision a peopleverse.
And then evolve from there on a path towards realization of that dream. 😊

Ae. The problem is a whole lot of grafting privacy features onto a system designed for the broadcast of public messages. Then evangelists promoting that system as a privacy solution, meaning that it doesn't DataFarm network members.
Then that creating an assumption that it's a system designed for private messaging. Which is never was and still isn't the best solution for.

I’m using Immich to manage large photo collections from community events (face detection, duplicate removal, smart search) and it’s great 📸
What I’m missing is automatic photo culling / best-shot selection: choosing the best photo among similar ones (group shots, event sessions, same subject). 🧞♂️
Any experience with open-source, Python-based solutions for this? or projects to recommend? 🐍

Three bugs appear.
“Ah, with my senior software developer senses I detect these are in fact not three separate bugs, but a single bug manifesting in different ways. A greener developer would have fallen into this trap and spent all day chasing shadows!”
*7 hours of struggling*
They are three separate bugs.

A few months ago the theory was that Trump would rig the 2026 elections with maps that make it impossible for Democrats to win the House. Now, after Indiana rejected redistricting, they actually stand to *lose* seats. And Trump's rash pardon of Henry Cuellar probably blows one more. Amazing.

anyone has experience setting up adguard doh with caddy inside docker? i could use some help
I'm looking for self-hosted, open source, ideally copyleft-licensed small team task/project management software.
It's sadly fairly challenging to find tools not infested by GenAI.
Contenders so far:
Worklenz
Plane.so (this is why I was asking about the Copilot commits, they have some, but no history shown) DOES seem to have GenAI for their cloud product, trying to see if it's excluded from their self-hosted version.

この人の絵を見て少し違和感を感じたので、少し調べてみた。
騙されるのが嫌だという方々は、この情報を拡散して詐欺の発生を減らすお手伝いをお願いします。
まず、AI画像投稿の明確な証拠があるにもかかわらず、この人はその後投稿した作品についてAI使用の有無を表記していない。
次に、この人は収益目的でのAI画像投稿を禁止しているプラットフォーム（fanbox、skeb）に作品を投稿している。
以上より、本人はこの人の誠実さを疑う、一部プラットフォームの規約違反の疑いがあると考えている。
この人のSNSや投稿プラットフォームの調査により確認された事実：
2023年1月より、tumblrに複数のAI画像投稿（画像説明文に基づく）
2025年11月25日現在も、twitterにAI制作と明記した画像投稿あり
しかし、この人物はmisskey、個人wiki、SNS（twitter、pixiv、fanbox、skeb）のプロフィールにおいて、AIの使用について明確に言及していない。
1）AI使用の明確な表示の有無
2）AI使用禁止プラットフォームへのAI画像投稿の有無
3）収益化目的でAI画像投稿を禁止しているプラットフォームへの投稿の有無
「AI使用について言及していないなら、本当に使っていない可能性もあるのでは？」という反論もあるかもしれないが…
2023年から現在まで、この人は各プラットフォームに画像を投稿しており、その一部にはAI使用が明記されている。前述の2025年11月25日の投稿もその例だ。
AIという便利なツールを一度使い始めたら、使用を止める可能性はありますか？
さらに最近では「AI加筆」と呼ばれる画像が増加しており、たとえ一枚の画像におけるAIの割合が少なくなったとして、その使用は事実です。
総合的に見て、これは信頼性の問題です。
重ねて申し上げますが、騙されるのが嫌だという方々は、この情報を拡散して詐欺の発生を減らすお手伝いをお願いします。
