I did the only rational thing when I learned about this and went looking for a wallpaper based on this to use on my Xfce desktop. You can grab the wallpaper here.

@aproposnix

This is a great and important article by @soatok

It also mentions how anyone, not just #security experts, can help make E2EE on the ActivityPub #fediverse a reality.

For instance by #fedi devs by supporting #FEP 521a: Representing actor's public keys in their #ActivityPub implementation:

https://fediverse.codeberg.page/fep/fep/521a/

Or help improve the #UX of E2EE enabled fedi apps. Or even just spread the word around by :boosts_appreciated: boosting the article around, and give impetus to #E2EE adoption.

I got a message from Google saying it now stores any media it interacts with, partly to train its AI. The message had a link to change the settings, but if you don't click it right away, it's hard to find again.

Google didn't make that link easy to get, so I had to hunt it down myself after a while. With all the info Google keeps on us, it's no wonder they don't want to make it simple.

Here is the link:

Here's an update on the rescued kestrel(s): yesterday evening, we went to feed it again. After eating some chopped chicken, it decided to work out a bit. Ultimately, it flew several metres above the ground in a straight line! We watched from a distance and left when we realised the mother was observing from the rooftop.

Anything like this out there for #Vivaldi or #Chrome?

Over the past week I made this little tribute to one of my favorite YA novel series, "The Tripods" by John Christopher.

Specifically, I was inspired by Tim Hildebrandt's cover art from the 1988 US edition of the first book of the series, "The White Mountains."

The book was probably my earliest exposure to the concept of the "post apocalyptic" setting in fiction, and I was fascinated with the protagonists' descriptions of "ancient" technology we know today but which they have never seen before.

Tim Hidebrandt's depiction of the menacing tripod was an early inspiration to me to pursue making art, and it will always be how I imagine these hulking monstrosities (although BBC's version looks pretty cool too)!

I asked about this a while ago but figured I would again. Anyone know if it's possible to take estrogen while also taking a small amount of T to counteract the effects of estrogen on genitals.

Like, I don't want my T levels to change, they're great where they are. Just, having more estrogen seems neat I think
