Apparently, Google has fixed their "AI" bullshit: https://www.theregister.com/2024/05/31/google_ai_search_update/
Now I'm thinking of starting a conspiracy theory about Deep State attempting to downplay the health benefits of eating rocks and putting glue on pizza.
Any suggestions? Words of wisdom? 😏

#Chromium (and #Chrome) begins phasing-out Manifest v2.

This means, among other things, that uBlock Origin is about to be disabled in Chrome. Google will choose a different extension to recommend but it can not be as effective as #uBlock Origin.
Following #Google's example, may I instead recommend you switch to #Firefox.
Firefox will continue to support Manifest v2, and consequently uBlock Origin and other extensions that can not be implemented with Manifest v3.
Happy browsing.

Russia Mulling Charging Companies To Use Foreign Software https://tech.slashdot.org/story/24/05/28/199237/russia-mulling-charging-companies-to-use-foreign-software?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon
Created this after reading conversation in comments below some tech article somewhere. Someone mentioned "surfing the #internet sewer" and I really liked that phrase.

Probably the most cynical but also widespread manipulation is when #Hamas supporters post photos from #Syria presenting them as photos from #Gaza and #Palestine. Which is quite popular trick, because Assad’s merciless war on Syrian civilians produced thousands of dramatic photos of ruined towns and people bombed, executed or poisoned with chemical weapons. If you search for “killed Arab civilians” to feed your daily posting schedule, you will mostly find photos from Syria. Most absurdly, people like Jackson Hinkle support Assad and Russia and condemn killing of Arabs in Palestine at the same time…
Hey, Mastodon … I’m trying to track down an #AppleNewton developer named Stephen A. Cronin.
He worked at #AMD and operated a software company called TapTech based out of Austin, Texas in the late 90s. I’ve managed to contact his former software partner, Francis Preve … but Francis lost touch with Stephen years ago.
Together they released a sequencer program for #NewtonOS called NR404 and I’m hoping the source code still exists somewhere.
Boosts appreciated.

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
