Is the Bluesky kind of federation an example for the future of the Fediverse?
Read here what I think about this:

Spent the best part of the last 2 days writing a "Save Image as Type" browser extension, instead of just going to an online image converter, for the ***[ 1 ]*** image I needed to convert.
Still worth it though, as all extensions on the web store seem to be indentified as malware. Will make it public soon(TM) (both the extension, and the webserver needed to use it)
📢 New Essay: The Boring Internet
The internet you grew up on isn’t dying.
A commercial veneer glued on top of it is.
Both #Dell and #Lenovo have agreed to be premier sponsors for the #LVFS as part of our new sustainability effort. Over 145 million firmware updates have been deployed now, from over a hundred different vendors to millions of different Linux devices.
With the industry support from Lenovo and Dell (and #Framework, OSFF, and of course both the Linux Foundation and Red Hat) we can build this ecosystem stronger and higher than before; we can continue the great work we've done long into the future.
> The trick is in the subject line, not the email
>
> When most people think "phishing email," they picture sketchy senders, broken English, and links to weird domains. This scam is the opposite. The email passes every authenticity check — SPF, DKIM, DMARC, all green. It comes from PayPal's actual mail servers. The fonts are right. The footer is right. The unsubscribe link works. If you forwarded it to a security expert and asked "is this really from PayPal?" they'd have to say yes.
>
> So how is it a scam?
>
> Scammers have figured out that PayPal lets anyone send small amounts of money to anyone else, and that PayPal will dutifully email the recipient a notification. The scammer sends you a payout of, say, one Hungarian forint — about a quarter of a cent. PayPal's system then automatically generates and sends you a real, legitimate, fully-authenticated email confirming the transaction.
>
> Here's the catch: the email's subject line is whatever the scammer typed when they set up the payout. PayPal doesn't sanitize it. So they write something terrifying like "Pending charge of USD 987.90 — call this number with questions" and PayPal's servers cheerfully deliver that subject line straight to your inbox, wrapped in a perfectly legitimate-looking notification.
>
> The actual transaction in the email body is for 1 forint. There is no $987.90 charge. There never was. But by the time most people read carefully enough to notice that, they've already dialed the number.
We’re kicking off a new series: Community Spotlights.
Through these stories, we celebrate the people who make the #SocialWeb a wonderful place to connect.
Our first subjects are @Tzipporah & @Yehuda, the grandfather & grandkid duo that admin #TurtleIsland, a server focused on building community with Native/Indigenous people, other BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, & People of Colour) people, and allies.
Have you messed up a commit message? The `git commit --amend` is okay for the most recent commit, but for the older commit you are out of luck and you need to use interactive rebase. Unless you are on version git 2.54, which comes with the `git history reword` command.
