enough doomscrolling, here’s a very bright orange tree near me. Actual color, no filter
Seems Merz doesn't understand the difference between data-residency and data-sovereignty. Nor does he understand the scope of Trump's 2017 CLOUD act, which expressly states any data in any datacenter that is the property of a US corporation, regardless of where it physically resides in the world, can ultimately be accessed by US statecraft, on demand.
There is no 'data sovereignty' with GAFAM. Ever.

@JulianOliver There's a lot that this guy doesn't understand. This is just the tip of the iceberg
@lydiaconwell it might be one of these:
@postmarketOS @postmarketOS
@nflux @lydiaconwell @postmarketOS @postmarketOS@fosstodon.org Hey, that's our old old account. Since then we've first moved to https://social.treehouse.systems and since the project rebrand we're @nura now!
@lanodan yeah, seeing how far mcf has gone with BearSSL and DNSSEC motivates me to learn how this all works and master these tools.
Not this month though. This month is 😴
if there ever happens to be, like, a revolution or something that puts an actual democratic non-capitalist society where i live, i hereby give them permission to put me to death
not because i'm some sort of right-wing wrecker who's going to fight back, but simply because i don't have the social skills and enough unconditional empathy to operate in that kind of environment
i'd be holding everyone else back and, even if someone is able to derive useful work out of me, i'd feel out of place working for the benefit of a system that i won't ever be able to make use of
you know how much effort and careful selection it took for me to start opening up to people online? i don't think i'd ever be able to do the same to just any random neighbors, even as a condition of survival
capitalism sucks, but it's simple to operate in: put 8 hours of your life in, get money out, give money to shops and government offices, get essential goods and services out, and you don't have to actually care about anyone in the process
i don't know if i'd ever be able to function in some other way

Oh my Gosh. Okay, this is me!
One creator I enjoy and follow on the Fediverse is Gardiner Bryant as his content is really enjoyable.
First off, thank you so much! Really appreciate you enjoying the articles we put out 😊 One think I might emphasize here though is that so far as the site goes, Gardiner and I are partners! This is one of my articles though (so I’m to blame for this appearing so often in your feed). In fact I’m 99.99% sure Gardiner doesn’t actually share his articles on Lemmy at all.
I’m sorry it appears like this. It used to annoy me back when I was regularly on Reddit, when a post was cross-posted to a different community I’d have to follow that link, read their description of the post, then follow the link then go back a few steps to start/join the discussion in that community. Since joining Lemmy and sharing here (it has been a long time!) I just went against that grain and posted in the communities it was relevant to, to give each community a space to chat about it.
I had no idea your app was showing it this way, or that how I was doing this was annoying anyone. I’ll just go back to the age old cross-post method instead, going forward. Interesting that your app shows it this way, the one I use seems to do that for me.
Sorry to annoy you! It won’t happen going forward :)
@Zumbador So far as I know, Writer Beware has been notified of several problems to do with this “publisher”. I’m hopeful the growing clamor will warn other indie authors.
@lilithsaintcrow @Zumbador I sent in my own warnings. I got sucked in because they lured me in with saying all the right things rather than hard facts about how they sell their books and their authors.
At this year’s #Akademy we held a very successful Activities BoF with about 30 participants.
Report from the BoF and some extra explanations on Activities for those who do not know them that well yet:

I'm reading about a Word "clone", apparently made by the same people who recreated "clones" of Adobe's software suite.
I don't know how legal any of this is, and I'm not going to get into that. But I can't help smiling at the reactions.
When they started pushing AI, they told us we would lose our jobs, whether we liked it or not. That AI would replace us, whether we liked it or not.
Now that someone has decided to apply the very same principle to their products, suddenly they don't like it anymore.
"You can create new games, but you can't recreate existing ones."
Hurts, doesn't it?
And that's the point. The problem isn't the technology itself, but the way certain sharks use it at other people's expense. When they're the ones on the receiving end, and only then, ethics suddenly becomes a concern again.

Note that the post doesn’t necessarily go against your (re)posting style, but rather how it is represented in the apps. As others have noted, there are options that combine reposts, with Voyager (which is shown in OP’s screenshot) having an open issue ticket. Though you using the native repost function probably helps.
Thank you for your work, btw ❤️

Goodreads removed RSS and some people are asking for alternatives on Reddit; maybe worth pointing to BookWyrm and NeoDB?
Goodreads removed RSS and some people are asking for... #fediverse #goodreads #bookwyrm #neodb #rssfeeds
Both fediverse softwares that support user reviews for books, both have RSS support natively (no Piefed/Misskey bridge needed), and some comments also seem discontent with Amazon's mismanagement overall.
@spla absolutament, però una de les màximes en ciberseguretat és: assumeix l'atac, assumeix la filtració, prepara't.
Els atacants fan la seva feina i mai deixaran de fer-la.
@lalgorisme potser si tothom es centrés en els delinqüents sí deixarien de fer-la
@kde Nice! What size are they?
Just over 10 cms tall with horns.

Here’s how piefed handles it using the browser.

Got bowel cancer and ended up with a stoma. Its not that bad tbh but one thing I do really miss is the ability to pass wind. The satisfaction of letting rip a big fart, especially ones that make you laugh has gone forever. Cherish your farts people, each one is a precious gift.

Do you miss the old Minotaur Project games?
Do you want them back?
@jedeyesniv has you covered. All 9 MP games, playable on your PC right now.

Enjoy! 🐂
@llamasoft_ox @jedeyesniv Touchscreen and portrait went better than I could have hoped!

J’aime bien, t’as le « Monde » qui met dès le chapeau que le terroriste aurait déclaré « n’être sympathisant d’aucun parti politique », mais faut lire l’article pour avoir les précisions et le rappel que le mec était en vrai un facho proche du RN : 😬
Interrogé sur les 30 autocollants portant la mention « Vive la France, RN [Rassemblement national], fier d’être français », confectionnés par Kevin T. et trouvés, avec d’autres documents tout aussi explicites, à son domicile, le procureur précise : « [Le suspect] indique n’être sympathisant d’aucun parti politique et de n’avoir adhéré à aucun parti politique ». Par ailleurs, s’il a été photographié lors d’un rassemblement propalestinien en 2018, Kevin T. affirme qu’il souhaitait alors « infiltrer les gauchistes », a déclaré le procureur, citant les mots utilisés par le suspect.
Au passage on voit encore que le terme d’« ultradroite » utilisé partout ça sert bien à faire croire que ce genre d’attentat aurait rien à voir avec l’« extrême-droite » bien sûr : 😬
La terminologie employée par le PNAT pour qualifier ce type de profils, c’est « l’utradroite radicale et violente », décline le procureur. « C’est pour faire clairement la part des choses entre ceux qui sont des partisans d’une idéologie politique, de quelque segment qu’elle soit, et ceux qui se radicalisent dans une idéologie, et au-delà même de la radicalité, qui vont considérer que la seule façon de porter leur idéologie est de passer à la violence contre les personnes », précise-t-il.

Is there a way to not see duplicate of the same topic across different communities?
Hi everyone!
I’m really enjoying the Fediverse through Lemmy and Peertube.
Two creators I enjoy and follow on the Fediverse are Dash and Gardiner Bryant (both work on The Bryant Review) as their content is really enjoyable.
Sadly they are the target of my post as they shares their content on many different communities that I follow.
Today I had 5 times the same topic on RetroDeck (great project too) on my feed on Lemmy (Voyager).
It is the same on PieFed (Interstellar).
This is really annoying and I haven’t found a way to not show these duplicates. Do you know about one or is it worked on?
Also when crossposting, it would be great if everything appeared under on post. Is it feasible?
Sorry if it’s easy and I just missed it. In a way I hope it is because it would mean that the Fediverse is festure rich😇
Edit: Added Dash as she was in fact the one who published the article. Also it appears that the issue is only on mobile apps since both the browser of Lemmy and PieFed don’t have it.
