Pinned toot
Note to self: More proof reading before tooting.
Automatic issue closing bots on slow moving projects are not the greatest idea…

Just got an email from DHL about real-time tracking for my package. Seriously, why do I need that. Just make sure my package arrives on the day you tell me it arrives. No need to put tracking devices on your drivers.
How can one make sure that stuff arrives? By having enough drivers. Not by tracking. Give drivers a break, add some time to their schedule that acts as a buffer in case things take a bit longer, make shipping more expensive if necessary.
Grrr.

Amazon ist aus dem Leben vieler Menschen nicht mehr wegzudenken und DER Online-Versand schlechthin. Trotzdem ist der Konzern eigentlich noch viel mächtiger, als man auf den ersten Blick vermutet: wegen Amazon Web Services. #ShareDichDrum

Just to reiterate in relation to Gab getting hacked, I’m not aware of any vulnerabilities in Mastodon at the moment and based on what I have seen in their code modifications the vulnerabilities they have are the ones they themselves introduced (along with never porting security patches from us)
I thought I have a rough idea about how "crypto currencies" work, then I listened to this podcast. Now I'm sure again, that I have no idea about it and want to stay as far as possible away from that gambling table:

@Tusky I think I just noticed that Tusky will filter my own toots from the home timeline when they contain words from my filter list. Is that intended?
Great work "Luca" devs. We are walking backwards again. Not only is data stored on centralised servers again, no we also went from let's make it open source, so people can trust it, back to let's make it proprietary so no one copies it.
There was so much we achieved with the Corona Warn App that is basically rolled backwards by pushing this luca app.
Maybe I didn't search properly but so far I couldn't even find where or how you actually store the data, besides a bunch of marketing speek.

The demo instance is currently around 240 active users on 180 different notes.
Always good to see people using our project. But even better: This is just the smallest part. Because most people use HedgeDoc on self-hosted instances around the globe.
If you run your own instance and collect those basic statistics, how is your instance utilised? Let us know!

How I cut GTA Online loading times by 70%

The local newspaper's website, 2 years after GDPR is enforced, 4 years since it's in place, still requires more than 50 probably more than 100 as services, that are not opt-in, but opt-out, to view their page.
I don't know who thinks that it's feasible for anyone to contact more than much more than 50 different companies to opt-out from collection. Even more questionable is how one is supposed to do any meaningful GDPR request towards them.

🇬🇧 Incredible: Microsoft decides which e-mail Members of the European Parliament get to read in their inbox. It's called Outlook spam filter and cannot be disabled.

🇩🇪 Unglaublich: Microsoft entscheidet, welche Mails Europaabgeordnete im Posteingang zu lesen bekommen. Es nennt sich Outlook-Spamfilter und kann nicht deaktiviert werden.
