@danirabbit Yup. The "let's make OSS that's open to everyone" is a huuuuge false flag when they, at the same time, make it unsafe for e.g. queers to participate and safe for white supremacists. I don't want my project to be open to everyone, Nazi bar etc. We've had the argument ten thousand times.

@WeirdWriter @rysiek These two paragraphs struck me in particular:> That’s in stark contrast to, say, Google+, which despite corporate backing, incomparably larger budget, and being pushed down people’s throats through forced integration with YouTube, survived mere seven years, nine months, and a week.Because unfortunately Google probably doesn't see that as a problem. Or even as the Fedi winning. For them, longetivity doesn't matter, but peak user count.> And once it shut down, it shut down. A social network of millions just blipped out of existence one day. All those moments – lost in time, like tears in rain.This, too, for them is a good thing. No-one else can profit from "their" data.This just makes it so crystal clear how the big one's interests aren't aligned with ours. Google+ wasn't really failing in their book, it had served its purpose and then ceased to do so. To us, this is loss. To Google this is just business.

@lanodan @ska I mean quite generally the "rationale" for anything like this is usually: some implementor already did it like this so we need to write the standard s.t. it fits. POSIX started out as XPG, so mostly just documenting preexisting common interfaces rather than defining ones for the future. If they tried the latter, that often failed (e.g., pax). So my money is on: Some UNIX did something weird in that case and that's why this clause is part of POSIX ^^'

@lanodan @ska absolutely! but arguing about a UNIX being "gone" is very difficult territory in a working group that's defining what UNIX™ is and mostly about cosplaying a time where this matters. I love POSIX, I really do, but I've attended one of the Austin Groups meetings as an intern. And that was enough for a lifetime.

@lanodan @ska Oh absolutely, I won't argue against you on that! It's just... that some in the committee have (had?) the habit of basically claiming any UNIX as alive as long as they could spin up a VM of them... .Of course this is absurd because then one couldn't do any changes at all that may break old UNIXen. But that's the state that POSIX has indeed been in for quite some time unfortunately :'-DOh, also fuck Alien UNIX

@cryptgoat Jup. Am besten macht's da tatsächlich Apple, selbst der Export nach Dashlane & Bitwarden (bzw. jedem anderen PW Mgr der die API implementiert) funktioniert schon genau so wie man's erwarten würde:Passwords -> ... -> Export Data to Another AppMich nervt's auch total, dass das nicht als PW-Ersatz gebaut wird. Bei der @freieuniversitaet werde ich erst nach PW gefragt, dann nach meinem Passkey. Danke für nix.An sich finde ich es ja fein, wenn man als weiteren Faktor nochmal FIDO2 einsetzt, und dann auch so, dass forciert wird, dass das ein separates Gerät (Smartphone, YubiKey, ...) ist. Nicht für 90% der Anwendungen, dort sollte ein softer Passkey ausreichen, aber wenn ich bei besonders sensiblen Anwendungen noch einen physischen FIDO2 Token als weiteren Faktor nutzen kann – warum nicht.So wie's jetzt ist ist's Chaos.

@cryptgoat @freieuniversitaet Yep. Und bin nun wirklich kein Apple Fan, muss jetzt seit 2 Jahren mich mit macOS rumschlagen. Aber hier haben die echt ordentliche Arbeit gemacht. Passkey-Systemintegration auf Linux ist auch bejammernswert. Ich hoffe, dass oo7 da gleich alles richtig macht, wenn's den secret-service ablöst.

@futurebird I'm in awe. The setup was so weird I knew that there'd be some bad pun coming up. But did not see it coming, or rather, from where. I applaud you!

@futurebird I get back pain with normal kitchen still. Next one will have a base height of 90cm for anything :blobcatdevil: Also I don't think it's us who ruined bathtubs. It's property prices. I for one am all for bigger bathtubs. But in this economy?

@strypey @nate Yes and no. From a legal or technical standpoint, all this is true. It is legally allowed, technically necessary. But this doesn't mean it's ethical and that it doesn't violate consent.I can walk up to two people speaking in "public" to eavesdrop on their conversation. But just because I can, doesn't mean it's right. I can scrape endless pfp images from WhatsApp through their contacts API. But doesn't mean it's right.So no, just because it's possible it doesn't mean "permission enough". It' just means that it's necessary and people have accepted the risk. Explicit permission is something different entirely. This is about consent, a human property, not about technological or legal constructs.

@nate @strypey Absolutely, there's this difference. But I'd argue it can only be consensual if whatever happens is somewhat "expected". And depending on the service in question, this isn't always the case. Some people go to the Fedi because they don't want to have their stuff on AT...

@davidho While Finkelstein and Chaney did what's right, I'm not sure I'd want to cite news that writes:> There is little doubt, given the prevalence of paedophilia in Israel and among its supporters, and Epstein’s now-confirmed status as an Israeli ‘kompromat’ operative, that Finkelstein will be hated and targeted even more by the Israel lobby.prevalence of pedophilia in Israel? Because child abusers also exist there?

RE: https://todon.eu/@ljrk/116012163742864052@paulschoe @davidho Yeah, sure, because things like that haven't happened elsewhere *looks at war reports of virtually any engagement*. Are you serious?Pray, why do you believe that Israel is so bad w/ sexual abuse? Is there just some inherent Israeli-ness about sexual abuse?Cf. also
