A neighbor at work today was playing the Cantina band song from Star Wars IV pretty loudly today and I didn't mind. :)

Meta handed over a user’s messages about accessing abortion medication to law enforcement. This has been happening since before Roe was overturned.

I didn’t realize that the trick to getting a bunch of developers to clearly articulate what they’re after was just to call it “prompt engineering.”

If you want to setup your own server, just let me know 😉

@ntnsndr Oh, darn. I thought I had read that some email marketing systems were contributing lower read counts to the new privacy features. I had some similar issues with my newsletter, but I thought it was just some people not looking in their junk folder or something. (Emailing some separately and asking if they got it.) Hmm.
@ntnsndr @todrobbins How many of your readers are Apple users? The new "Mail Privacy Protection" feature will stop view tracking from working. https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/use-mail-privacy-protection-iphf084865c7/ios Anyone else who has external content loading turned off won't appear in view tracking too.

@SomeGadgetGuy Ha! They want a social status label perhaps.

An email list server with a private web archive like Mailman3 suite? Tons of open source projects and other groups have been using those since the 1900's. Doesn't get much more evergreen than that. Will work with clients from 30 years ago and 30 years into the future. If the kids like chat UIs, you can install DeltaChat for that.

The patriarchy is the reason you know the names Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk, but you've never even once heard the name Evelyn Berezin.
Ooh, open source digital payment system sounds nice! https://taler.net/en/principles.html #FOSS
@picofarad I forgot to do it, so I had to ask for it to be added in the follow up prompt. :)
Alright ChatGPT, that was pretty good. Don't forget to configure PHP for 100Mb uploads and run certbot though.
@mike Ah ha! So the transport network is relevant after all? :) Yes, I feel the same way. Federated open stuff is so much better.
@mike Yes, because these networks are connected and that's how it should be. How do you send messages to TikTok or WeChat or WhatsApp or Instagram or Signal or Discord or Slack users from here though?
@mike Seriously? Do you have 1000 messaging apps on your phones? :) I don't have time for that anymore! Haha
@mike Yeah; choose person, type message, press send. It would be nice if the networks were connected to each other though.
