Mozilla bought the excellent Android email app K-9 (which didn’t include any trackers) and integrated trackers as part of #Mozilla‘s rebranding under the #Thunderbird name.

They even made it opt-out instead of opt-in. Their defense for breaking the law: ”we wouldn’t have enough data if we obeyed the law.“

It doesn’t matter whether you ”anonymized“ the data or not: If you want to extract data from someone’s device to yours, you may do so only if they knowingly consented.

Ha-ha-ha, yeah, I used to find myself in a situation like this one quite often in the past — that is why I remember it by heart… well, almost, it's actually even shorter, just "--allow-downgrade", right? 😅

@newt
Admirable, maybe not in this case but sometimes you have to bring yourself down to the person's level to show them they are acting stupid, it gives them food for thought — considering you intend to keep interacting in the future.

@annika
> you can't downgrade
Can't you just invoke it with "--allow-profile-downgrade" or something like that?

@newt
> declared me racist after that
Return the favour by calling her antisemite? 🤭

mpv with yt-dlp seems to be the only browser that can render this one properly 😏

@unspeaker
Re-creating those workflows might become quite a refreshing experience: plugging everything you have into a hardware mixer directly and working with that — only using the computer to record Master or even using a dedicated recorder if you have one, but… Nah — definitely not my thing, I was born in the DAW era 😁

@unspeaker
To be fair, I can imagine it being quite an ordeal — convincing old-school audio engineers that they need a computer at all 😂

@unspeaker
Yeah, good point! It's not an audio signal, but a control stream — cloning on demand would probably take microseconds anyway.

XXX hated Hegel
Goethe hated Hegel
Schopenhauer hated Hegel

almost like everyone but his pupils hated Hegel :blobsharkwoozy:

@Jain @kaia
Probably nothing unusual — just a normal curling night, using phone instead of the stone 😆

@unspeaker
> so the same phrase can be instantiated on multiple tracks and play with multiple voices
It's not uncommon — playing the same phrase with different instruments, but I think it would be… cynical to make those links to the same instance of the phrase 😅
I think Live makes a copy when you do this — because often you have to modify the phrase for a particular instrument anyway.

@unspeaker
Live CAN do that — starting with 9 I think, that's when they've added the option to have two windows, I use it with two displays and sometimes it's handy, but not essential — you can do the same by dragging clips and pressing Tab to switch between Session and Arrangement views.

Russia has started evacuating citizens from Lebanon, but so far Putin has only ordered a special flight for 60 members of diplomats' families. The other 3,000 Russian nationals in the country are currently on their own. agents.media/po-ukazaniyu-puti

I am a professional and take my work profiles very seriously.

@kravietz
I can't just claim that everyone doing this is in Kremlin's pocket — I don't have hard proof and I suspect that some might be doing that for a short term personal political gain, however doing so they only reinforce the position of official Russia and Kremlin's talking points — this shouldn't be tolerated.

@kravietz
Of course, and I'm not disagreeing with you. And I'm not shifting the responsibility here, I'm just elaborating a little on the logical fallacies this line of thinking is built on — the most important part of solving the core problem is identifying it. But even European politicians go for this because this makes the whole picture look simpler and therefore, might make their own agenda easier to sell.
