Oh we have the same wish @EUCommission

I think it'd be a powerful move if you deleted your X account (a platform that has become a vector of misinformation and a cesspool of hate).

By the way, your homepage states: "Follow us on" followed by the icons of Facebook, X and LinkedIn. I always found it odd, since those are algorithm-based U.S. companies and you are the EUROPEAN Commission. How about putting your Mastodon icon on your homepage?

Thank you for your consideration

According to The Epstein Transparency Act, the Department of Justice can ONLY redact names and faces of victims or withhold child sexual abuse material.

And so they released more files. But what they overlooked is, some of the documents have already been released, and by comparison we can now see how they have redacted the files:

Picture 1: Document previously released in 2024.

Picture 2: The same document, but now with Trump's name redacted, as released recently by the DoJ.

THIS IS ILLEGAL.

I just learned something that I want to share;

1. Create an invisible box with an outer shadow
2. Create an invisible box with an inner shadow
3. Place randomly...

TA-DA. Free depth in your texture!

Meanwhile elsewhere in social media land....

Its seems Yanis Varoufakis is being imitated & misrepresented by a deep AI fake in videos on YouTube.... which YT will not take down

Windows User: My computer froze again. I have to restart it for the third time today

Linux User: That’s rough. My system has been running for 3 years straight without a single crash

Windows User: Wow! What have you been doing with all that uptime?

Linux User: Trying to get my usb ink printer to work 😅

When the European Commission approached us about funding a bug bounty for BIND 9, we were impressed with the proposal. We have a policy against bug bounties (because we were frustrated with people wasting our time), but under this proposal, the YesWeHack team would do initial triage, and use their expertise to minimize the 'slop' reports. This is a game-changer for a small development team.

The bounty program is active, and we are looking for our first valid report.

🚨 noyb has filed complaints against #TikTok and #Grindr. As it turns out, TikTok even tracks you while you're using other apps. For example, TikTok was able to track a person’s Grindr usage - which allows it to draw conclusions about his sexual orientation and sex life

Just found out that Netflix is taking down She-Ra: Princesses of Power in February and thereafter there won't be a legal way to watch the whole series.

Well, shit.

The series was a perfect example of the sort of representation that would have made a huge difference to me if I'd had it when I was growing up. It's comforting to me even now as a badly adjusted queer adult. It's not perfect, but it dealt with a lot of themes on top of specifically queer issues that don't get a lot of attention in mass media, and it doesn't deserve to be swept under the carpet, taken away from the people it might mean a similar amount to in the future.

I'm sure people will be able to get hold of it if they want to track it down, but removing this stuff from discoverability is what does the damage. The sooner the industry implodes and we can go back to the concept of actually buying media that we enjoy the better.
