Got mapping and Linux mobile focused grant application out of the door.

Would be really cool if we get it approved, beyond the grant itself it would probably let us move plenty of workflows away from Android over time.

@GrapheneOS I'm not talking about /e/ -- what I would like to understand is why you promote Apple so much.

That surprises me, because GrapheneOS is to my understanding FOSS, so I thought you had an understanding of why that's important.

Why is it so important for you to portray Apple's iphone as "secure" and "private"?

I'm repeating myself here, but an iPhone user is completely owned by Apple. How can that be acceptable to you?

Jag fick ett autosvar som sa såhär:

"Delivery has failed to these recipients in Microsoft Teams:
korr<korr@svt.se>"

"We couldn't deliver this message to Teams, because it was flagged by anti spam policies."

SVT använder alltså Microsoft Teams, och Microsoft har bestämt att mitt mejl inte ska komma fram.

🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♀️ 🤦‍♂️

Skulle vilja säga till SVT att det är dumt att de använder Microsoft-skit eftersom det skadar SVTs oberoende. Men jag kan inte nå fram. 🤢

@samuel @airikr @konstellationen det är lite komiskt, om man tänker på möjligheten att de skulle göra någon seriös journalistik på ämnet.

"De kan ju inte ens stava till Mastodon", skulle någon kunna raljera. Men det är ju sant, de kan inte stava till det. Det är så långt bort från deras värld.

SVT har en mejladress för korr, se länken där det står "Hittat språk- eller faktafel i texten? Skriv och berätta."

Jag har nyss skickat ett mejl om felstavningen, kanske hjälper det om någon mer gör det också.

Nu rapporterar även SVT om forskningen om att socmed kan göras mindre splittrande. Mastodon och Bluesky nämns som alternativ

"För första gången har forskare lyckats visa att bara ordningen på flödet i våra sociala medier räcker för att öka den politiska splittringen i samhället. Men det finns en ljusglimt.

– Det är ingen naturlag att sociala medier måste splittra oss – och det finns alternativ, säger digitala experten Carl Heath på Rise."

This story should be covered waaaaayy more than it is.

The US has sanctioned six judges if the international criminal court ICC, because Trump didn’t like them issuing arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and former Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant.

@GrapheneOS it's interesting to see in this discussion how wildly different meanings different people assign to the words "security" and "privacy".

When you say that an iPhone is good for security and privacy, that sounds completely crazy to me. Let me explain why.

An iPhone user is completely owned by Apple. An iPhone user therefore has no privacy, and also no security. An iPhone user does not even attempt to achieve privacy or security.

Do you see what I mean?

I Godmorgon världen i morse kritiserade jag och Henrik Jalalian hårt de marknadsmisslyckanden - nittiotalets avregleringar - som orsakar vanvettet både på elmarknaden och skolmarknaden.

@hund embrace the darkness!

I think it's nice to stay still in the dark, turn off all your flashlights or whetever you have and just let it be dark, then stand there for a while and observe your surroundings. Just be in it.

I think "expansionism" is kind of a weak word for it. Better call it fascism.

I did not really know @panoramax before today.

"Panoramax is a digital resource for sharing and using field photos. Anyone can take photographs of places visible from public roads and contribute them to the Panoramax database. This data is then freely accessible and reusable by all."

#OnThisDay, 28 Nov 1967, Jocelyn Bell Burnell discovers the existence of pulsars.

Not included in the 1974 Nobel prize for the discovery, Bell received a £3m prize for her work in 2018. She's used it to set up a foundation to improve the diversity in STEM.

@eighthave so that's what it's about! I always wondered what it is that everyone is so thankful for. It makes sense.

All is not lost. Today I had a class of master students in human geography that readily accepted and appreciated they cannot use genAI and that realized the value of topical encyclopedias hitherto unknown to them with positive surprise and thankfulness.
