@action_jay using #OSINT would not proclude that.
Granted in those cases I'd reserve an extra colour for "person actively worked towards suing us into removal of data" kinda *red flag…
I eamn, we can see this #OpenWashing by #RedHat and others #paywalling #SourceCode access...
@incentive @fuchsiii I think #venting is important.
Even if that means I may sound like a #jerk at first glance for not praising #FLOSS 24/7.

🗣 TECH IS ALWAYS POLITICAL
no, it is not just how people use tech that is political. how you decide to build it reflects your sociopolitical choices. how you decide to distribute it reflects your political economy choices.
fascist neoliberal technocrats have controlled CompSci, Eng and Econ uni departments since the 1980 Bush-Reagan coup. you've been groomed to believe neither tech nor markets have anything to do with morals, politics, ethics; but they do.

Anyone know how to remove this “AI” menu option on Firefox?
When I have no windows open, there's a “new AI window” option in the “File” menu, but it disappears after I open a new window. I would prefer the menu option to never show up.
I set “browser.ml.chat.enabled” to “false” in “about:config” when I heard that would increase performance, and I have all the “AI” features I could find in the settings menu disabled. I'm on macOS 15.7.3, and Firefox 147.0.2.
The last year I’ve been making a conscious effort to pivot away from proprietary/american tech, for a mix of reasons. I’m increasingly worried about #privacy, data collection, data sovereignity, that kind of things. Not wanting to have more or less my entire life stored on servers inside american privacy and data laws jurisdiction. Wanting to support #european tech. And, where possible, a preference for open source #foss #floss #libre software. I’ve been quite in the «apple fanboy» category for the last 20+ years, and deeply buried in the whole iCloud ecosystem. Partly because of Apple’s traditional stance on privacy, and the whole «if a service is free, you’re the product» thing. I used to look forward to #apple event keynotes like others do to football matches. The last handful of iterations of #macOS, #iOS, macs and iPhones has sparked steadily decreasing amounts of enthusiasm from me though. Anyway, the last year has seen me replace most iCloud services with @protonprivacy , my macbook pro with a @tuxedocomputers infinitybook pro running #linux, and my iPhone with a #Fairphone 6 running @murena /e/OS. And a patchwork of other services and apps to replace what I used to have. Here's a summary, and some questions to others. 1/n
@bradlinder seriously, @mozilla_support, STOP THAT SHITE!

Managed to more or less finish the Nextcloud setup for the #runbsd project.
Only thing left to fix is the redis config.
I directly hooked up the phone and computer of our youngest and of myself.
So I guess this is mission critical infrastructure now :-)
Drawpile development update for the last two weeks: https://docs.drawpile.net/devblog/2026/02/02/dev-update
There's now a project statistics dialog that tells you how long you've worked on a picture and a way to make timelapse from within Drawpile. These features both fall out of the new project file format, along with autosaving.
You can also now assign canvas shortcuts to arbitrary actions. For example, pressing themiddle mouse button to switch to the eraser or undo.
The Gerrit Code Review Iceberg, Part 5
We continue our exploration of old change requests on the Gerrit code review tool that have been waiting for several years for someone to pick them up and get them merged.

I was unreasonably giddy when I stumbled across the real-time discussion of implementation of a feature I use regularly in Shotcut — the proposal, the math, the initial implementation, and then how it evolved into the feature I use.
There's something so cool about seeing people nerd out about stuff and seeing development happen in the open.

Ja, ich weiß, es ist eine dieser privaten Petitionen, die nicht vom Bundestag aufgegriffen werden müssen, aber um das Ziel weiter in die Öffentlichkeit zu bringen, zeichnet bitte trotzdem mit:
Ridiculous French #police, basically they've been posting on #Twitter for years giving a foreign platform legitimacy as a public utility tool, now they attacked their office https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/feb/03/french-headquarters-elon-musk-x-raided-paris-cybercrime-unit and what's the first thing they do next? ...brag about it on Twitter nonetheless! Obviously! Addiction at its finest. And that's in spite of all the tech savvy people that have been urging companies and institutions to use #floss alternatives such as #Mastodon for years. #SorryNotSorry #France
