I had a Captcha today that had ai generated images - this is not new. But the prompt was also clearly ai generated, as it made zero grammatical sense. Refreshing the page was the only option, as refreshing the captcha gave the same prompt with different images. How is solving problems a computer can solve far easier than a human a good way to determine the user isn’t a computer?

So the thing I don't get about tumblr is why it's so strict on anything remotely sexual, yet happily broadcasts and pushes ads with graphic violent content of people being shot in a video game. To me, I find violence 100x worse for society than something mildly sexually explicit. It's deeply saddening just how normalised violence is in our society, but sex is so taboo.

Really love how David Tennant is so supportive of his non-binary kid, and generally how open and vocal he is on the issues affecting minorities and marginalized communities. Plus, his no bs take here is pretty spot on in regards to how the word "woke" is being used as an insult to ridicule what is essentially just giving a damn about other people. "It makes me so angry, the way they weaponised this idea of, that, that being asleep is something to aspire to [...] It makes me furious that they should have a minister who would encourage you not to have a crumb of empathy, not to think about what it might be to live so somebody else’s experience." 🔗https://www.thenational.scot/news/23932700.david-tennant-releases-anger-tories-last-leg-live-rant/ #DavidTennant #DoctorWho #DrWho #lgbtq

If you ever see a single person bitching about sex workers advertising on mastodon with the premise that it's "meant to be an ad free space" please tear them a new one. The circle of safe social media platforms for sex workers keeps growing smaller, mastodon may be one of the only places we have left. Please don't kick us out too.

Tailscale is a wonderful thing but I wish they had a better story for very large organizations than 'everyone lives in one tailnet and surely you can keep one global set of ACLs sorted out'. I regret to inform you etc etc, universities, departments thereof. I like the idea of a single tailnet, but the administration side of things would be a terrible mess.

Hey, speakers! If your talk proposal doesn't say which open source tools you're covering, and your blog is full of proprietary software coverage, I'm going to assume that you're trying to sneak a proprietary SW talk into an OSS conference and reject it. #SpeakerTips

@pdcawley@mendeddrum.org and I do! Well, a USB switch for bouncing between work and personal machine. But it has a noticeable pause when switching, so I have a second keyboard for when I'm mid-sentence in work stuff and want to toot or something. And in the evening I get silly and have both on the personal system. Primary types better, secondary has better media controls. And very occasionally I get confused, start typing on one, and finish typing on the other.

Half-Life is back and better than ever. Alongside interviews with the original developers, the game is now available with the Uplink mini-campaign, Steam Deck support, updated graphics settings, new multiplayer maps, and bonus restored goodies.

Fuck Google. Fuck the executives who signed off and pushed this. Fuck the people who hadn't pushed against this and kept up this long battle of the digital attention economy through ads. I'm not terribly forgiving of those in favor of digital advertisment's rise — any business that requires nonconsentual engagement (and uses it to remain as profitable as possible) is unethical. Surveillance capitalism is one of the grossest things to exist and despite it being coined recently, that shit is old. As old as overseers. https://infosec.exchange/@catsalad/111426154930652642 (https://jacky.wtf/2023/11/4xxP)
