Hi #musicians of the #fediverse!
How many #songs sit unreleased in the comfortable warmth of your computer?

And why?

"When you use machine learning for the first time"

@EU_Commission and, beyond the technical concerns, there's another question that any sensible policymaker should answer before pushing such ideas.

We all agree that online child abuse is a grave problem that needs to be tackled. But is it worth implementing a solution that reduces privacy for everyone else and would basically create a backdoor that would put everyone's online security at risk? Are we sure that there aren't better solutions - like encouraging parents to pay a bit more attention on what their kids do online, or establish a direct contact line with specialists who can immediately provide support at the first signs of abuse?

I think it's appropriate to make a real-world example to really grasp how dumb this idea is.

Arguably, most of the child abuse happens within the domestic walls, not online. Would you then argue that all the European citizens with kids have to install surveillance cameras and microphones in their homes to monitor potential cases of abuse? Or maybe keep the doors of their houses open so that in case of a suspected abuse the authorities can immediately come in?

In other words, do you think that it's ok to reduce privacy and security for everyone for the benefit of a small minority without first investigating if there are better solutions than surveillance?

@EU_Commission I'm wondering how are you folks going to implement that.

After praising E2E encryption as a fundamental civic right, you're talking about client-side monitoring of messages. These statements are in mutual contradiction.

Also, how are you planning to implement that? Force all the major communication platforms (Facebook, Google, Apple etc.) to implement some form of "background agent" for EU citizens that forwards messages to god-knows-who? That would be a scalability and security nightmare, provided that you guys actually manage to convince a bunch of American companies to invest engineering resources to build such piece of bullshit that nobody needs. Also, all it takes to bypass it is to use an alternative chat client.

Force the major producers of communication apps to share their messages with you upon request? And how are they supposed to do it if the protocols use that E2E that you guys just praised?

Run an agent on every phone sold in the EU that scans all the running apps for new messages? Again, an implementation nightmare in a very fragmented market, and it would also open a huge backfoor for malicious actors.

As an IT professional I see so much bullshit behind this announcement that I'm not sure how any serious political entity could even considering toying with such dumb #chatcontrol ideas.

Sind im Raum Augsburg noch irgendwo Gemüse Pflanzen übrig? Ich hätte hier noch ein Beet übrig…

Liebe Trötgemeinde,
ich habe eine Mammutaufgabe und wo wäre die besser aufgehoben als hier.
Mein Mann und ich suchen eine Wohnung, die stufenlos erreichbar ist.
Positiv: wir suchen in ganz Norddeutschland, wir sind sehr ruhige Zeitgenossen, Nichtraucher, ohne Tiere und Kinder.
Schwierig: meine Behinderung verschlechtert sich, bis ca. Ende nächsten Jahres müssen wir etwas stufenloses gefunden haben.
Die Miete muss auf Sozialamts-Niveau sein.
Bitte sehr gern teilen.

#^Announcing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22557

Relativ weit unten, unter [Other changes], findet sich dann folgendes:
„Similar to Windows 11 Home edition, Windows 11 Pro edition now requires internet connectivity during the initial device setup (OOBE) only. If you choose to setup device for personal use, MSA will be required for setup as well. You can expect Microsoft Account to be required in subsequent WIP flights.“
Die bisherige Telemetrie hat wohl nicht genügend Daten abgeworfen. #microsoft #windows11

A statement I need to make:

#Fediverse #ActivityPub

Mastodon needs cat ears now more than ever.

What social media do you use beyond the #Fediverse? (you can choose multiple options)

Gibt es eigentlich irgendwo eine Übersicht in Deutschland aktiver NGOs/Vereine und Aktivistigruppen zur Klimathematik?

Wir sind jetzt auch auf Mastodon!

International bekannt ist das Landesmuseum für Vorgeschichte Halle (Saale) als Heimstatt der weltberühmten Himmelsscheibe von Nebra. Mit einer bis in das 19. Jahrhundert zurückreichenden Geschichte bergen die Sammlungen des Landesmuseums jedoch noch eine Reihe weiterer hochkarätiger Funde und Fundkomplexe.
