@arstechnica This is akin to how FOSS projects if done well have a trust-less system. Analogously, this is Proton ensuring that nothing can and will happen to it in the future as well as they grow to avoid bad actors, takeovers, and other bad things. We don't necessarily have to to trust Proton and it's management or change in leadership because this new system won't allow anything bad to happen to it in any way.

@signalapp @Mer__edith Thanks for being strong in your privacy oriented stance.

@signalapp @Mer__edith When will politicians learn that you can't un-invent mathematics?

@signalapp @Mer__edith We still have one day to stop this #ChatControl mass surveillance madness, especially if you're from IT, FI, CZ, SE, SV, EST, GR, PT. Act NOW: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/council-to-greenlight-chat-control-take-action-now/

@ericleamen 😻

@Quineesi 😻

@apzpins usually when I'm there that doesn't happen 🤔

@teresa_athome Cute

@teresa_athome She is so ready to judge anyone who needs it.

Inspired by this Reddit post: "why do grey catbirds keep putting berries in the bird bath?"! 🍓 https://www.reddit.com/r/birding/comments/1d2wd2j/why_do_grey_catbirds_keep_putting_berries_in_the/

@hootalex I love my catbird neighbors and I love this!

@heatharcadia awe when you're that handsome, you are allowed to be somewhat demanding 🤭🤣🤣🤣😻😻😻

@heatharcadia Catting as intended, WONTFIX 😻

@heatharcadia What a dork :blobcat_not_like_googly:

@samhenrigold but are you slaying

@samhenrigold it’s like the management triangle but you only get to pick one at any given time

@samhenrigold And I’m not dancing. It’s just that this asphalt is really f-ing HOT!

@Gargron This has such a 1960’s look! Nice shot.

@Gargron Nice! looks like a Wes Anderson color palette 👌

@Gargron In nautical terms, this is known as the "Sith Wayfinder", and it works like a map or a compass or a homing beacon or something, I dunno, whatever the plot needs it to do, we literally never see it again, oh, and you plug in some 1/4" patch cables into it for some reason, what IS this franchise anymore anyway?

Amazing light work though! Hard to believe that's film and not some ultra-dslr. Where do you even get film negatives developed around here?

@dale

@sam
Nice entry with the Ford-Musk comparison.
By the way: Henry Ford was a frenetic antisemite and he first published the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" in the US in his own newspaper "The Dearborn Independent". Ford bought the newspaper 17 years after its establishment.
And (I didn't know that until now) Musk also bought Twitter 17 years after it was established and then he published #antisemitism
This means nothing of course, but it'd be funny if it wasn't so awful :blobconfused:

@sam The problem is that for most people who want to leave #Twitter/X, as close a replacement as possible (minus Musk) is EXACTLY what they want.

@sam
Aaaand here is the (presumably original) #Peertube link: https://video.canadiancivil.com/w/u3g4529zGuTmKTZW5ENPqT

But admittedly, it doesn't load as quickly for me 😅

I just tried to see what Android (Pixel Launcher) does when you move a widget around over icons, and it's somehow much more predictable. In particular, icons would never jump columns if you're dragging a horizontal widget vertically.

@chockenberry Yeah like sorry I dont want to see an AI photo of myself or anyone else...

@chockenberry I wish they'd stop trying to make slop happen.

@MattBinder I dunno — absurd AI-generated cartoons like this are popular in many forums online!

@MattBinder It's a subte way to tell her that you low-key hate her.

@MattBinder shock value? Is she a frenemy?
