For the vast majority of people, even in Imperial Core Countries, a lifetime of your personal carbon emissions is equivalent to just a second of the global carbon emissions.That means that if your actions get humanity to 0 fossil fuels even one second earlier, you are a net good in this calculation.Stop caring so much about your personal carbon footprint. How you vote, how you protest and how you rebel matter much more.

#Tumblr joining the #Fediverse will probably be fine - there are nice people there and they're probably gonna keep ads on their own by website not cluttering Fedi. The thing to be worried about though is the prospect of conglomerates owning parts of the Fediverse in general, because we could very easily get into the state where two companies control 90% of it and all the toxicity of Twitter and Facebook comes to Fedi and then why have the Fediverse to begin with?(1/2)

This is something that would require active effort from us Fediverse users to resist, but hopefully any megacorporation joining the Fediverse will not grow at the expense of Fedi, only maybe at the expense of non-interoperable platforms (and preferably not at all).(2/2)(post taken from a comment to @BrodieOnLinux on YouTube)

@BrodieOnLinux I agree. That's why the burden is on us, those who do care about FOSS, to keep making the Fediverse a welcoming space, so it doesn't just become 45% meta Inc 47% alphabet Inc because the FOSS ones weren't accessible.Tumblr joining is a positive. Despite the "female presenting nipples" nonsense, it's still mostly a nice ecosystem. We just need to make sure this isn't the beginning of the end for this noncorporate space.

#YouTube just stripped monetisation from many creators without warning, with a retroactive policy change that even some YouTube staff didn't know about.Time to move to #peertube.Watch "Huge Youtube Change Just Ruined Many Channels" on YouTubehttps://youtu.be/Yv3a7Pfy_l4

In news that may or may not surprise you, #Telegram turns out to be snitching on users in compliance with the authoritarian government of Russia.If you want actual secure and private communication, use #Signal or #Matrix.https://web.archive.org/web/20230220163332/https://www.wired.com/story/the-kremlin-has-entered-the-chat/

@matt Scientists also made a machine to simulate the noise of human bowel movements, which they called SHART.https://www.inverse.com/innovation/fart-monitoring-ai

I just cut my time limit on YouTube by half, and I expect to decrease it by a further half-an-hour sometimes soon.I've got more than enough content in podcasts, in dropout.tv, and on @tilvids. plus I want to listen more to music I've got on Bandcamp and to @radiofreefedi. I've got the ground ready to cut off YouTube entirely.

@techlore kinda amusing that ChatGPT is allegedly pro-privacy while at the same time being blocked in Italy for privacy violations.Stochastic parrot's gonna stochastic parrot.

Well, this is disappointing.People raised very good concerns about #mastosoc being the default instance in the mobile app, and came up with very good suggestions of what to do instead and how to promote decentralisation while keeping ease of use.Yet the response from #Mastodon appears to be to double down on the choice to make mastosoc the default, even as it approaches being 20% of the userbase.I expected better. I'll know not to next time.https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2023/05/a-new-onboarding-experience-on-mastodon/

by the way, of all suggested solutions, this is probably the best one. not only does it solve the issue, but it also makes onboarding for new users *easier* not harder.bringing up the various instances this way is the perfect introduction to the subject of federation, with the idea of different communities managed by different people being super clear.#Mastodon #Mastosoc #Mastodev #MastodonApphttps://github.com/mastodon/mastodon-ios/issues/1023#issuecomment-1517563854

The idea of the Wood Wide Web - that trees communicate with each other via a network of symbiotic fungi in their roots - has become increasingly popular over the last few years. But turns out it might be entirely false.A fascinating read by some of the very people who helped spread that idea in the first place. Now this is science.https://undark.org/2023/05/25/where-the-wood-wide-web-narrative-went-wrong/#science #SciEd #PopScience #WoodWideWeb #fungi #popsci

Reminder that #Telegram is not secure communication. Most chats aren't end-to-end-encrypted to begin with, and even those that are use a strange custom-built algorithm rather than actual cryptographically sound algorithm such as the double-ratchet.If you want actual secure communication, use #Signal, #Matrix, or even #WhatsApp (which is shit and will turn you in to the police but is still better than what Telegram). #Privacy #Security #E2EE

In case you needed more reasons not to trust #Telegram, here's something to worry about:Telegram claims they've never given away phone number and IP addresses. *This is an outright lie*.Not only is there a report from last year showing they handed over data to the German police, but it was yesterday confirmed by a Freedom of Information request that the Dutch police was handed user data as well.Don't use Telegram.https://tech.co/news/telegram-exposed-user-datahttps://cyberwarzone.com/dutch-police-can-access-hidden-telegram-numbers/#Privacy #Security #E2EE
