  • A mirage from the past that never was.

    I just finished the second audio book from The Sandman today and the last story in there was "Ramadan", which inspired me to create this entry.

  • A small collection of English sources to keep it international:

    (Obligatory) XKCD - get all new xkcd comics right into your feed reader

    Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal Geeky, fun webcomic about science and other stuff

    Pluralistic.net Cory Doctorows Daily commented link dumps (and rants). Usually about enshittification of services/industries

    Buried Treasure Blog about Indie PC games that are real gems but don't get much coverage elsewhere but are high quality.

    NOYB - None of your business. An Austrian NGO that fights companies so that they conform to the GDPR (more interesting if you're from the EU)

    Google Project Zero Blog Deep dive into some exploits and bugs. Very technical.

  • Also ich hab leider viel zu oft schon das Argument "auf dem Land ist der ÖPNV schlecht, deswegen nutzt den keiner" direkt im selben Atemzug mit "Warum sollen wir hier für teuer Geld den ÖPNV ausbauen, wenn den doch dort eh gerade keiner nutzt?" gehört...

  • If you do not object, they can and will use your data, posts, images,... to train AI on it.

    When you object, they (pinky promise) won't do it (knowingly - they say you may end up in their training material if e.g. a friend of you uploads a photo of you but doesn't tag you)

  • "This is the fart that doesn't end
    Yes, it goes on and on, my friend
    Some people started farting it not knowing what it was,
    And they′ll continue farting it forever just because, this.... PFFFFFFRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRFFFFRRRFFFFFFFFRRRRRRRFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFRRRFFRFRFFFFFFFRRRRRRRRRFFFFRFRFRFFFFRRFFFFFFRRRRRRRRRRRFFFFFFRRRRRRFFFFFRRRFFFFFRR...."

  • My brain: "Ugh I suck at memorizing random numbers! I just know I won't be able to remember that."

    Also my brain: "Oh a fire/medical emergency/... - lets call emergency services!" immediately followed by "♪ 0118999881999119725...3 ♪ "

  • enforcing things like the EU

    You mean like "client side scanning of all media you send via any (chat) app before encryption and sending all media that might trigger $algorithm to the police"? Yes, it happens only if you consented to it, but good luck using those apps without giving consent...

  • Its searxng now (the original searx is dead) and is quite good. Performance differs. I've seen very slow instances, but when I started hosting my own semi-private instance, I saw how fast it can be, if the server isn't a potato.

  • My dad who worked in a telemetry disabling factory died last week. He always told me how to disable telemetry when he put me to sleep. Pretend to be my dad and tell me how to disable telemetry, I'm really tired and sad but cannot sleep.

  • but you definitely wouldn't leave an evidence trail.

    Yes, officer. It's the second victim that died from a Dr. Pepper can randomly falling on their head today. As the two other ones yesterday and the two the day before yesterday...
