The disinformation medium X is down. For anyone lacking disinformation, The Kremlin can still be reached by fax machine.

Single player games that require constant connection to the internet? Fuck no. Fk you Ubisoft! #gaming

I love hachyderm but i will be moving to Mastodon.green from tomorrow. It is definitely worth paying for to plant trees

Ok so using Toolbx (no typo) i can launch an app directly from the terminal (without having to enter the container) by using 'toolbox run', which i have now aliased to 'trun'. This saves a bit of time (assuming i only have one container). I used to use Distrobox but i am trying to layer as few […]

linux users after realizing "swap" is "paws" backwards

Organic Maps has been making a lot of people happy recently with their mobile app! Did you know it is also available on Linux too?? #linux #map https://flathub.org/apps/app.organicmaps.desktop

Today is my last day at Shopify. I joined in 2016 and had the time of my life, great engineering and people, they brought me to Canada and for that I’ll be eternally grateful. But they’re also proudly hosting swastikas for sale, taking the idea of “make commerce better for everyone” a little […]

How is this 15 years ago already! https://mastodon.social/@onthisday/114119738418534534

Argentina's president Javier Milei is on social media, deleting all traces of Zelenskyy's visit to Argentina last year. It's plain weird. Who is he doing this for?

The movie 'V for Vendetta' was based upon this. The actors did a fantastic job. But as usual the original outshines the interpretation https://beige.party/@Black_Flag/114069639582635203

@JohanEmpa thanks for approving my re-signup!

I suppose everyone else already knew this, but it turns out that the “Leopards eating people’s faces” meme has historical roots; Here’s a Roman-empire mosaic from what is now Tunisia, said to be of a leopard eating a condemned man’s face. Source […] [Original post on cosocial.ca]

Shoutout to @ailurux and @jacqueline and the other wonderful people at cooltech.zone who made the #tangara I had hoped it would fit my 20+ year old iPod 3rd gen clip case and it does! Fits perfectly. I'm not sure if I even *could* be happier! What a lovely thing! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Meanwhile in Denmark the Danes are striking back by putting black stars on American products to help customers boycott American goods. #politics

Stop recommending Brave as a #firefox alternative. The CEO is a homophobic crypto no-homo bro who actually used to be Mozilla CEO. 🙄

I recently switched from iOS to Android (specifically GrapheneOS), and one thing I did genuinely like about iOS was the new option to mirror the screen on a Mac. Turns out you can do something similar with a VNC! I have VNC Viewer on my laptop and droidVNC-NG ( […] [Original post on hachyderm.io]

Sounds like a perfect time to remind people of the economic blackout that is happening this Friday 28th! https://hachyderm.io/@BenjaminHCCarr/114064801170570539

Has it been 3 years already? Crikey! https://mastodon.social/@verge/114064451256997401

'Everybody is looking at their phones,' says man freed after 30 years in prison. The year he went in was definitely superior to what we have today 😕 https://news.sky.com/story/everybody-is-looking-at-their-phones-says-man-freed-after-30-years-in-prison-13315407

Moving from #Fedora Workstation to the immutable version. New install took about 8 mins on my twin NVME laptop. Nice.

Some photos from the Stop AI protest at OpenAI’s hq today. I think there were about thirty folks in attendance. It ended with the organizers locking themselves to the doors of the office and the cops showing up. #StopAI #OpenAi #sanfrancisco

Just tried it out! Awesome software! https://floss.social/@sonny/114020107205199107

For Brits, notice how instantly Apple caved into the British Government's demands when the Water Companies can do what the fuck they want to us and UKGOV is like all "errrr, ermmmm, maybe not?" #Apple #UKGOV #UKPOL #UKpolitics

Time to give Kenshi another shot i think. Played it for 30 mins last year and couldn't get into it at all

Reminder for those using the iOS Patreon app to support their creators: Apple is now taking a 30% cut for new donations through the app, plus whatever Patreon takes. Consider alternate donation methods (including direct to the Patreon website rather than the Apple mobile app). I’ve found, btw […]

Honestly no, as an ex #iPhone user in the UK i understand not everyone can suddenly switch. But even using an iphone you can stop using iCloud and #Google and switch to #opensource alternatives Isn't this why are you are on the Fediverse in the first place? To support the little guys

More reason to buy a Pixel and switch to @GrapheneOS #grapheneos https://social.openrightsgroup.org/@openrightsgroup/114042707262696170

2025 and i watched Forrest Gump for the first time yesterday. I always avoided it because of all the memes i saw online. It is probably better i saw it now so i can recognise and appreciate all of the callbacks to US history

Doechii doing a track with a kpop star (Jennie) was not on my Feb 2025 bingo list :blobfox3c:

The legality (not wisdom) of putting European private data on US clouds hinges on the availability of the US Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board. Trump neutered this board, and the European parliament has taken notice & asked the European Commission what they think:

Yes, why are those #Tesla dealers so offended when their boss said it was merely a Roman salute? (Hat tip to @kendricklmao8.) https://troet.social/@Over50butnotold/114029180792595141 #LoneSkum
