It would be a real shame if thousands of people submitted totally legitimate incidents concerning Texas public schools for these Republican losers to sift through.

The Continued Trajectory of Idiocy in the Tech Industry

Every hype cycle in the technology industry continues a steady march towards a shitty future that nobody wants. CMYKat The Road to Hell Once upon a time, everyone was all hot and bothered about Big Data: Having lots of information--far too much to process with commodity software--was supposed to magically transform business. How do you build technology that can process that much information at scale?

Our hearts go out to Dragoneer's friends and family & the furry fandom tonight.

We lost a great person today -- he provided the foundation for the furry fandom to exist as it does today, & without him many connections wouldn't have been made.

Rest in peace, Dragoneer.

We realize this will impact our users but feel that given the circumstances, a review of the instance’s policies, and a review of the admin team interactions we’ve seen, we feel this is the appropriate choice.

Affected users will receive a notification stating that defederation has occurred. You can view a list of severed follow relationships on the Settings > Follows and Followers > Severed Relationships page.

Pawb.Social ReportsAug 4, 2024

On recommendation from other federated admins, Pawb.Social will be affecting defederation against linuxrocks.online for the following reasons:

  • Lack of moderation: Moderation of basic decencies is expected and required for any instances Pawb.Social federates with, including reasonable rules or community guidelines. The team there have openly embraced content that is objectively transphobic, conspiracy-oriented, and anti-LGBTQ+.

  • Harassment of reporters: No admin or moderator of an instance should release report information, let alone try to go after remote users for their reports.

  • Platforming of hate speech: We will not tolerate federation with any instance that openly abides by the kind of content that adversely affects the lives of our users, nor puts them in a place where they have to defend their right to exist.

It should not be acceptable for a company to say “we can’t afford to pay our workers enough for them to support themselves, but we will dedicate record millions to CEO compensation and stock buybacks.”

There's that one @[email protected] and also @[email protected] , btw.

I looked into it earlier. From what I gather, the way this works is that, instead of traditional search like google which searches for content that has already been created, the user of that tool can subscribe to a topic and get notified whenever any post on multiple websites is made on that topic. Basically cross-website any-topic RSS.

From what I understand, the business part of it (Customer Targetting) comes from the tool being able to read certain well-established JSON schemas used for product promotion. So a company store implements the schema, and tools like it notify their users about the product.

The thing is sorta interesting in principle but the website doing vague corporate speak + following users quietly without explanation + the fact it considers non-restricted follows "explicit consent" is very shitty indeed.
