Many newcomers due to what's happening in The Bad Place, so here's another #introduction. Hi! I'm an astronomer and science communicator at the European Southern Observatory.
Below is a pic from my previous "office" at ESO's Paranal Observatory in #Chile. I now work full time as Media Officer at ESO's HQ in #Germany.
I mostly post about #astronomy #space #photography and #astrophotography

Welcome!
@jajo mm jo det borde ju gå eftersom det ska vara en standard. Men jag är i detta fall lat och vill köpa något färdigt. 🙂
Where are some good places to buy OpenPGP cards? Is there some shop in Sweden that sells them? #AskFedi #OpenPGP #pgp #SmartCard
This seems like a fitting illustration of how many companies nowadays attempt to force-feed people various "AI" products. There should have been an "AI" label on the machine, you'll have to imagine that. 🙂

@tsvenson @mattiasaxell ja det var intressant att se att de skriver så, "Många menar att plattformen X inte längre är en fri och öppen plats".
"fri och öppen" 🎉
För den som tänker i de banorna, "att plattformen <nånting> inte längre är en fri och öppen plats", då finns det kanske några stycken ytterligare plattformar att kritisera. 🙂

@conservancy might go after you.
Also, there are people (if not you, then plenty of others) who care about doing the right thing, keeping their promises.
And it works in practice. For example, the GPL has helped Linux take over the world.

@dos cool! So with this device you can connect a charger to the Librem5 to charge it and at the same time connect another USB thingy, like a keyboard or flash drive or whatever?

This is how the binary system works, explained with an ingenious wooden counter.

@neil Something like this is going on here in Sweden also.
There is a pretty severe problem with this, in that it will be logical for the state to encourage (or force) its citizens to use insecure computers/phones/etc., so that the state can hack them.
I would have preferred to live in a world where the state would help its citizens stay secure. Now we are instead getting a situation where the state is establishing itself as one of the aggressors from which I will need to protect myself. 😐
@neil interesting!

They say "irresponsible use" implying that they also think there is such a thing as "responsible" use.

So the states see themselves as customers. maybe for example "responsibly" using things like Pegasus to spy on their citizens?

@nozze blä usch verkligen hemsk mening det där, "Mer AI och ansiktsigenkänning i polisens arbete". Här kombineras flera av regeringens dåliga egenskaper: ren idioti ("mer AI") kombineras med fascism ("mer makt till polisen, vi skiter i mänskliga rättigheter") 😠
Hur långt är det till nästa val?

Well, here I am #mastodon. I never thought the day would come, but I've decided to join a different social media platform.
To be honest, I'm really sick of #twitter or #x (whatever) and all the bullshit that happens on that shitty site. Even though most of my memories and followers are over there, let's see how this goes.
