Logged in to Twitter to do my semi-annual "you don't have to be here" post, and eventually didn't even bother because out of my entire follow list, only 3 people were still posting. Proud of my corner of the tech community generally for having fairly comprehensively gotten the hell out, somewhat ashamed of those few people who are hanging on, and apparently paying for it too, but they're probably beyond convincing.
Looks like Palantir may have fallen into the Streisand trap;
in seeking their right to reply (under Swiss media law) via the courts, they have drawn a lot more attention to two articles (based on Freedom of Information requests) that reveal why the Swiss state refused to do a deal with Palantir for some military software; they were worried data would be obtained by the US Govt.
Now a story, originally limited to the Swiss is gaining traction across Europe; oops.
@ChrisMayLA6Emeritus Prof Christopher May the real story is the Swiss were not corrupted, whereas the British government gave Palantir a number of sweetheart contracts without even competitive bidding.
In a twist you couldn’t make up if you tried, the head of Palantir UK is Louis Mosley, grandson of Oswald Mosley, founder of the British Union of Fascists.

Hi #fediverse and #ActivityPub developers!
I'm currently working on interoperability testing for #Hollo and #Fedify, and I need a #Bonfire account to test federation with their implementation.
Since there aren't many open public Bonfire instances available, I was wondering if any Bonfire instance admins out there would be willing to grant me a test account? It would be a huge help for improving interop! Let me know if you can help. Thanks!

Great video by @vkc. I also don't like the idea of giving Google ransom money for destroying the Android ecosystem, but with September arriving and the uncertainty around how things like Obtainium, F-Droid, and Accrescent will work (if at all) in Google's walled garden, other than privacy-conscious folks, people who care about FOSS or actually owning their phones should really be pragmatic and take GrapheneOS for a spin.

You are editing a markdown file called soul.md that you copied from a stranger and issuing imperatives in bland prose, believing words leeched of poetry give you agency over a machine you cannot understand.
I am editing /etc/hosts and giving the karmic machinery of the universe a grip like fate on a dowser's wand.

To exist online in 10 years, you're going to have to give a random company a face scan and photo ID and they're going to give that and everything you post to the government to spy on you for being queer, left-wing, "a criminal," or whatever. None of your data or communications will be private. The government and corporations will go through all of it.
If you don't want that to happen, you should raise a stink about "age verification" right now because that's what they're actually building.

Really solid breakdown of how known spyware does the thing we all worry about: hiding camera/mic indicators.
An important note I think is that this capability requires kernel-level access to hook Springboard (iOS's UI controller) and hide those indicators. In other words, something your Facebook app cannot do.

Please don't use URL shortening services for links in your conference talks
By the time I get around to watching your talk 7 years after you give it, the URL shortening service you used will have been defunct for at least 4 years and the links will be dead

You are now two clicks away from being able to interact with my #fedify2 #indiekit implementation from your own #activitypub instance.

I know some people are excited about Trump saying they'll release UAP / extraterrestrial docs, but until they publish what the feds know about Bigfoot, I won't be satisfied.

The U.S. data company is taking fresh flak in the U.K. — as the country’s reliance on U.S. tech firms shoots up the political agenda.

So, Discord have started to experiment the next step of their age verification: Send "age verification" data to the company Persona.
Persona, in which Peter Thiel have investments. Peter Thiel is the founder of Palantir, a data and surveillance company that collaborate with USA federal agencies. Including ICE. (And their is a lot of other things to tell about Thiel.)
But wait, there is more about Persona. [1/2]

I really loved watching curling, but hearing the commentators talk about the physics involved sometimes left me wondering how they ever got their school diplomas.
