For anyone surprised at Moxie Marlinspike pushing an 'AI' thing, remember that the last big thing he pushed was a cryptocurrency integrated in Signal.

Happy 25th to #Wikipedia, the largest repository of knowledge in human history!

To celebrate, I wrote for @freedomofpress about how Wikipedia would not exist today without the robust free speech and press protections in the U.S., and that we need to sustain and expand them if we want to survive for another 25 years.

#Chromium embedders: imagine full extensions support, on your lightweight //content-only product. No more complex rebasings or //chrome hacks! Just clean APIs without chrome::Profile. Shin, from @igalia , has been working on this.

From an #Android prototype to a demo in the @WolvicXR browser, landing upstream in //extensions. A path to real extensions on TVs, cars, and custom #browsers. Read more in her new blog post! ✍ https://blogs.igalia.com/mshin/2026/01/13/our-journey-to-support-extensions-for-embedders/

I imagine the Fediverse like a decentralised collective of cooperative-run libraries covered in moss and fungi, that are safe and accepting spaces for all except bigots, where people can infodump to each other about the most specific topics, are quiet sensory safe havens, have FOSS on every computer, and have a cat café that's also a repair café.

Outside, hundreds of bicycle racks line the walkable, breathable arcade by the community garden, with thought-provoking street art replacing ads.

Me: "So, can I block gambling ads?"

Google: "No, we don't allow gambling ads so a toggle to block gambling ads doesn't make sense. What are you talking about?"

> If Trump makes good on his recurring threat to use force to gain the island, he would not only blow apart America’s most important alliance; he could set in motion a series of events that could lead to global catastrophe—or even to World War III.

The past few days has been like living through the Cuban missile crisis except the Soviets don't seem to realise what they're doing and keep joking around
