OMG. #Microsoft #Copilot bypasses #Sharepoint #security so you don’t have to! “CoPilot gets privileged access to SharePoint so it can index documents, but unlike the regular search feature, it doesn’t know about or respect any of the access controls you […] [Original post on infosec.exchange]

If you’re in the EU and you opted out of Meta training generative AI on your Facebook, Threads and Instagram posts and pictures, Meta are requiring you to opt out *again* or they will continue training on your data. Users have until May 27 2025 to opt out again or forever lose the right […]

[US Pol] You know, for all the things that Trump and his cronies are doing that are blatantly illegal, and are being called out as illegal. And he's being sued over because they're illegal, and he's losing court cases over, because they're ILLEGAL... It sure would be nice to see him face even […]

[Gender policing] Welcome to the "gender critical" future: male security guards entering the ladies loos to demand that gay and gender non-conforming women prove their sex. https://www.thepinknews.com/2025/05/07/liberty-hotel-boston-bathroom-lesbian-trans/

"microtransit" solutions are always fascinating because they're clearly made by people who don't ride public transit and don't care about public transit people who ride transit want reliable stuff that shows up at the same times every day and follows a consistent route you can plan around […]

#FursuitFriday Older one but the folks over at @thetailcompany.bsky.social liked it enough to throw it on the end of one of their shorts so I'll share it here. Suit by @bliskdaleopon.bsky.social Tails by @thetailcompany.bsky.social Video shot by my friend Vance

I am so fucking pissed about this Chris Krebs situation, I can barely put two salient words together. I stand with the EFF. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/04/cybersecurity-community-must-not-remain-silent-executive-order-attacking-former Blog post incoming with my plans, or what I can talk […]

U.S. Sen. Cory Booker has set the record for the longest speech in Senate history, surpassing Sen. Strom Thurmond who spoke against the Civil Rights Act for 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957. Booker is still speaking against the Trump administration's "grave and urgent" threat to the country. He […]

an ominous I-am-under-NDA-coded warning to immediately uninstall atop has been posted by a reputable tech blogger. https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2025/03/25/atop/

The AI bots that desperately need OSS for code training, are now slowly killing OSS by overloading every site. The curl website is now at 77TB/month, or 8GB every five minutes. https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/devs-say-ai-crawlers-dominate-traffic-forcing-blocks-on-entire-countries/

About 1 in 15 adults in the United States has been on scene during a mass shooting, according to a new study. Read more from @[email protected] https://flip.it/5KVsMr #GunViolence #Guns #MassShootings #US #Shootings

Chinese curses really are the best. Everyone's heard "May you live in interesting times", of course. We're all living that. Next on the ladder, it's "May you come to the attention of those in authority." And the top of the scale? "May the Gods give you everything you wish for."

Bluesky really does feel like Twitter 2.0 now, right down to the folks with thousand-follower numbers sicing their audiences on people. I think I prefer it here, where if I miss a citation someone drops it in a reply, and I say "hey thanks, I was looking for that".

This video was incredibly difficult to make - but it was one we needed to make. How the #FederalGovernment's removal of #EVCharging from the #GSA is about #Greed and #Vendettas, nothing else: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ6ZZLptUpo #USPOL #Trump #Musk

I need that dragon HRT. #furry #otherkin #therian

A video we published this morning is one that all #EV and #CleanEnergy people should watch - as well as anyone interested in #USPol and #GlobalPol. Why is the EV and automotive industry (both insiders and journalists) remaining so quiet on what #ElonMusk is up to? We have theories. Watch on […]

I thought The Onion was supposed to be satire

Just a reminder, especially in this wild time we live in. DO NOT INSTALL WORK MDM ON YOUR PERSONAL DEVICE. If your work requires Microsoft Intune or similar MDM, to get email/teams/slack. don't accept it. It opens your device up for them to access private data and disable/delete your phone […]

Hah! After two years of running this instance, we finally got our first spammer!

Elections Ontario is hiring right now for literally hundreds of jobs for the upcoming election. There are roles that are election-day-only, and office jobs during much of the next month. Some are on computers (but not remote), others are paperwork. Coolest part […] [Original post on mstdn.ca]

100.000 took to the streets in Berlin on saturday to stand up to Fascism. This is the direct answer to the attempt to normalise Far Right forces in Germany and all across Europe.

Web 2.0 is dying, and the Fediverse struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.

Did the Trump administration use artificial intelligence to draft executive orders? Legal experts are calling attention to typos, formatting errors and odd language that may indicate AI was used. Here's more from Futurism. https://flip.it/CJc32X #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #Tech #Technology […]

The only Copilot I want prefers to be called First Officer or Pilot Monitoring. Sometimes he mixes it up by being Pilot Flying. He's got a few OCs.

"This week, we watched as the world's richest man appeared to give a Nazi salute at Trump's post-inauguration rally. Twice. Then we watched as mainstream media outlets bent over backwards to avoid saying what we all saw," writes Parker Molloy for her newsletter, The Present Age. She explains […]

mmmm yup.. I think it's finally time to move all my e-mail handling away from google.. I could put up with it until they started forcing gemini with no way to disable it

While Trump is running his mouth about making Canada the 51st state, Canadians are helping California put out the LA fires. While Trump is vilifying Mexicans & running his mouth about renaming the Gulf of Mexico, Mexican firefighters are coming to LA. While Trump is talking shit about Gavin […]

tbh, I really don't care how many MAU a social platform has. The type of users they are is what matters, and you're all top quality.

I'm doing some updates to the underlying hardware for clockwork.monster, so we're going to have a few minutes of outage here!

Beginning to believe that @Gargron doesn't want me contributing to #mastodon — he's now partially recreated three of my pull requests that I've worked on. My PRs didn't ship because I needed feedback from the team who were busy. Like, I'm happy to spend the time and money to contribute to […]

This feels appropriate

I'm too old to keep waiting for this country to get better. I'm going to start looking to leave.

[USPol] I want a stream that's just live updates of vote counts as polls close. No talking heads, no stories or airtime filling things, just the numbers.
