  #LLM models ignored all the decades of open source licensing, they just did massive license break because they know #FOSS initiatives don’t have the pockets to sue them. Industrial scale GPL, AGPL, and CC breaks all over the place and there is nothing you can do because they have more money than you and will survive any attempt to sue. It is a big middle finger to all FOSS #developers

  Folks, I'm gonna ask some questions here about Mastodon instances and ActivityPub in general. I'd appreciate any answer or boost you folks can give me. ;-) * Anyone know instances geared towards creative writing, and science fiction & fantasy fandoms? * What is the current state of alternative ActivityPub implementations beyond Mastodon server? I'm aware of Pleroma. The second question is because I might be considering running a server and I'd like some...

  @elena hey! you inspired me to start using Yunohost here. Thanks a ton. Quick question, what frontend you're using for the GoToSocial instance at: https://aseachange.com/@elena From the docs, I thought it come without one and yours is looking great. Thanks for any tip.

  Absolutely brilliant post about how #macOS Tahoe is a #design car crash in terms of their icon usage: https://tonsky.me/blog/tahoe-icons/ Yesterday, I was reading #NewtonOS Human Interface Guidelines and I almost cried.

  Am so happy. Today, I succeeded in two important tasks for my Poncho Wonky fork of the #SecureScuttlebutt client Patchwork. Today, I managed to import an identity from a secret's file (as in keys) and also from a word export (as in list of word mnemonics) So now Poncho Wonky can restore old identities people had in other devices including moving Manyverse identities into Poncho Wonky.

  My iPhone updated to the latest version during the evening. With it came age verification. Apple does this by having Apple Wallet verify you. That failed.

I am 45 years old. Fuck this shit. #ageverification #apple
