I'm thinking of proposing a /social web community track at @COSCUP 2026 (Aug 8–9, Taipei)—think FOSDEM's Social Web devroom, but in East Asia. Before I submit the CFP, I'd love to get a sense of what to call it. What do you think?

(Boosts appreciated!)

Although now a staple of several European cultures, the potato is not a native plant; it was introduced as patata by the Spanish in the second half of the 16th century following their arrival in the Americas. It was borrowed from the Taíno word batata "sweet potato". As the crop was slowly introduced to the public, this name evolved into the English potato, the Swedish potatis, and the Turkish patates.

In 2013 Aaron Swartz committed suicide for facing 35 years in prison for mass downloading scientific articles.

13 years later, Meta is almost getting away with an infraction orders of magnitude larger.

The law didn't change.

AI対策、技術的に奪取されない仕組みを研究するのも一興ではあるけど、初回訪問時は画像データを配信せずにぼかしにしておいて、ぼかしたところをクリックしたら規約(学習禁止に関する条項を含む)に同意するかどうかのダイアログを出して明示的に同意させて初めて画像を読み込む仕組み(Click-wrap)を導入するだけでも違反したら民事で訴えられる+同意してないのに画像を取ろうとしたら不正アクセスで訴えられるようになるので、そういうかんたんな対策も検討のうちに入ってくるのかなとも思う

若い人ほど「定義」とか意味不明なこといってコンテキストを無視するので「???」となることが多いですね。
文脈や前提を読む能力がかなり落ちているのを感じる。雑談ができない感じ。

Bonjour and goedemorgen! Yes, a bonkers thread again. 🥳 This time, it's about my personal 🇧🇪 Belgian 🚂 train challenge! The aim is to complete the 17 remaining Belgian railway lines with regular passenger services that I haven't travelled on yet. I have three days, but there are two obstacles: rerouted services around Brussels on Sat/Sun and a strike beginning on Sunday at 22:00.

⚠️ Deze toot heeft environ 42 heures de retard. At least I have some pictures to start with.
