If you are an EU resident, please sign the Stop Killing Games petition! They need all the help they can get, and if this passes it'll go a long way toward ensuring the game library you've paid for is playable in perpetuity.

Stop Killing Games

I put together a tiny userstyle which moves Steam's content note box up near the purchase options so you know upfront if it uses genAI https://gist.github.com/ticky/a86d1749da142ea7b6dd5582748b461e

oh I didn't know syncthing for Android had been discontinued. I just used it and thought F-Droid kept it updated.

In the i686 discussion in #Fedora we currently hear quite a lot of voices in support for the Steam client, but not that much of other use cases.

If you have anything specific using i686 packages on Fedora, which is _not_ Steam, this is a good time to mention it, so that your use cases are not lost.

And please do not panic, it is a discussion, nothing is decided yet :)

#Google ha annunciato un’importante modifica al funzionamento del suo assistente virtuale, Google Gemini, che sarà in grado di accedere e interagire con app come Telefono, Messaggi e WhatsApp e tutto ciò anche se l’utente ha disattivato le relative impostazioni di riservatezza.

Dopo il 7 luglio, messaggi, cronologia delle chiamate e chat #WhatsApp potrebbero essere inviati ai server di Google ... per fare cosa?

Malpensanti! ... o no?🤔

Dear @creativecommons@mastodon.social ,

I read your article about your initiative for new licenses for dataset holders in the AI industry.

Let’s be clear: I do not want to re-license my hundreds of CC-By comic pages to please AI giants.

I wish you would support CC artists suffering from massive plagiarism. You should enforce your own existing licenses against AI mass crawling. It seems you’ve joined the battle only after the casualties and still managed to side with the wrong people.

Windows is getting rid of the Blue Screen of Death after 40 years https://www.theverge.com/news/692648/microsoft-bsod-black-screen-of-death-color-change-official

Made a quick L2J video on Stop Killing Games — I doubt the initiative will get enough votes, but more visibility for consumer rights regarding game software is good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zhw-1a2b9kY

#SomeOrdinaryGamers' latest video about #PewDiePie #degoogling brought up the usual #privacy-denialist normie quote "they already have my information." This is absolute nonsense: there is "static" information that #BigTech would already have like your full name, date of birth, home address, etc., but there is more volatile info that they cannot have already gotten and that should be protected, like your circles of friends and colleagues, the places you visit, your beliefs and interests, etc.

🇮🇹 Digitalizzare INPS, Inail e Istat sembra essere stato solo un immenso spreco di soldi

La società 3-i spa nasceva con l’idea di unificare le competenze informatiche di INPS, Inail e Istat sotto un unico tetto. Un progetto ambizioso, pensato per creare una società pubblica dedicata allo sviluppo software per modernizzare la pubblica amministrazione, in linea con gli obiettivi del PNRR e lanciato durante il governo Draghi.
