It's obscene that any characters from the first half of the 20th century are not public domain

"Let me be crystal clear before we begin: I say all of the below with love for #thefediverse.. Deep, stubborn, open-source-loving, billionaire-eschewing love. I want the #OpenSocialWeb to win. But wanting it isn’t enough. If we want this thing to thrive we have to face the #userexperience sins […]

"What does a #chatbot guide you to do? Maybe it asks you a question but for many it’s just “how can I help you?” or “Ask me anything”. Does that help you use it? The huge number of people whose whole identity has become telling others #howto write #prompts begs to differ." tante.cc/2025/06/19/c...

llms as “conversational UIs” is a misrepresentation of an interface. UIs can be misleading if they are badly designed, but an interface that is functionally misleading is a disinterface

'Meredith,' some guys ask, 'why won't you shove AI into Signal?' Because we love privacy, and we love you, and this shit is predictable and unacceptable. Use Signal ❤️

"That shocking, #raciallycharged language is a stark reminder of the kind of power #Powell confidently wielded from the bench. It says everything about[his]campaign to reimagine #rightwing political combat in America…he drafted it on #SCOTUS letterhead to another #justice." slate.com/news-and-pol...

For those that heard @cubicgarden at #Fediforum last week, a good #FediforumFriday read is the new social internet report from @BBCRD https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/articles/2025-06-social-media-change-issues-problems-report/

Agora com o julgamento dá pra confirmar algumas hipóteses sobre padrões observados no nosso monitoramento. Nessa época havia no Telegram correntes orientando os patriotas a não colocarem o nome do presidente nos cartazes, seria só entre "povo e forças armadas". Ou seja, um distanciamento proposital+

That ProPublica story leading to some real impact in Congress. Another great one by @vernalcoleman.bsky.social www.propublica.org/article/doge...

"Younger people will have trouble picturing this, but #Google used to nurture an image of being the “good one” among megacorps; they championed #openstandards (except when they didn’t), supported #opensource projects (until they backstabbed them)…" wordsmith.social/elilla/deep-...

Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up. "Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons" Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

No ponto este texto sobre a palhaçada da "ghiblificação" de imagens via IA. O título já diz muito: explicitamente roubar a produção da Ghibli pra inflar o hype da IA é uma demonstração "vulgar de poder". E geral achando fofo... Muito difícil viver num mundo assim. desvelar.org/2025/03/28/m...

#Fediforum: "Talk of #feeds was everywhere. I made a note to myself throughout the conference. It's amazing how big the feeds theme is. Feed ownership, customization, and sharing. All powered by #openprotocols." https://www.luisquintanilla.me/posts/fediforum-day-1-jun-2025?utm_medium=feed

"It's not that #Facebook trapped us by hacking our #dopamineloops, they trapped us by making sure that once our #friends were there they could not leave." @pluralistic Take a moment to watch this interview of #CoryDoctorow with #BriahnaJoyGray https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlrKlp_Iiko

É uma palhaçada que de todos do do judiciário e do executivo… só o ministério de meio ambiente se mostrou contra a PL que destrói o licenciamento ambiental

SCOOP from me: the mass exodus of employees from NOAA is decimating a tiny office that literally keeps our measurements of latitude and longitude accurate — and, former employees tell me, endangers the science of how the US understands global measurements:

After 35 years of teaching history in New Hampshire, John Dube left the state he called home—driven out by threats and censorship under a law that bans the teaching of “divisive concepts” in schools. He refused to stop teaching the truth. Now he’s starting over in Vermont.

"…it has become lost that #decentralisation is a description of a network topology,and not an intrinsic Good.

"President #Trump is no longer the most important American in the world. And it happened at exactly the right time. The headline of a story from The Federalist, a MAGA publication, said it all — “Read the New Pope’s #FarLeft Takes on Immigration, Climate, Covid and Race Relations.” And what […]

O colega Philippe Seabra, lendário guitarrista da #PlebeRude, realiza o ótimo programa #CapitaldoRock na Rádio Justiça, e em Janeiro deste ano fez um programa especial com a #Banda69, na qual tenho orgulho de ter participado. Para quem quer conhecer essa banda dos anos 80 em Brasília, este é o […]

#PhilippeSeabra fez um prog especial sobre a #Banda69 no ótimo programa #CapitaldoRock. Para quem quer conhecer essa banda dos anos 80 em BSB,este é o melhor review!

On #atproto's #Blacksky #community: "I've often described Blacksky as a "dotted lines" community (flexible, opt-in, and not fully walled‐off). It is a community that is loosely defined. There's a feed – but it's public so anyone can view it. You can include just a single post or have all your […]

Fediverse people, the hot one to listen to this week: @benwhitelaw.bsky.social and @mmasnick.bsky.social on content moderation and internet regulation. Funny talk about the "crazy" idea of deleting all #Facebook users' #socialgraph. https://www.buzzsprout.com/2315966/episodes/16998541
