TL;DR: LinkedIn tries to fetch content from over 6000 known Chrome extensions. If an attempt to fetch ‘chrome-extension://extension-id-asdf/known-path.png’ succeeds, obviously the user has extension asdf installed. It also uses other methods, but they’re sniffing for Chrome extensions.

You know that “stop forcing AI into fucking everything” graphic that went around on here?

I bought the t-shirt. I get a lot of compliments on it.

The only negative response was from a friend who works for McKinsey. She read out the “everyone hates it” and said, “do they really, though?” as we stood near the check-in table for an event, and three people in line turned around and said, “YES!”

Mais uma cientista brasileira notĂĄvel, Dra. Mariangela Hungria, microbiĂłloga do centro de pesquisa de soja da #Embrapa, passou dĂ©cadas estudando bactĂ©rias que retiram nitrogĂȘnio do ar e o alimentam atĂ© as plantas.

O resultado: o Brasil passou da importação de fertilizantes nitrogenados para se tornar o maior exportador de soja do mundo – usando micróbios em vez de produtos químicos.

Seu trabalho ganhou o PrĂȘmio Mundial de Alimentação de 2025. Mas o prĂȘmio real Ă© a redução de 40% no uso de fertilizantes sintĂ©ticos em toda a agricultura brasileira.

NĂŁo se trata apenas de soja. Trata-se de um modelo diferente de agricultura: fazer parceria com a biologia em vez de dominĂĄ-la.

As mulheres do Sul Global tem muita coisa para ensinar ao mundo!

Hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software, Persona. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet, and that was just the beginning.

@prefec2 Opendesk ist just a very few people with budget problems. Which will now be even more relevant as the money and marketing will be focused on EuroOffice. And the French suite. And whatever the dutch come up with. Divide and conquer instead of joining forces for a unified European solution. It's unfortunately always the same story. @kaffeeringe
We spent 20+ years on defining, supporting and promoting ODF and LibreOffice as open standard and open source solution for #DigitalSovereignty and now some tech bros decide to fork OnlyOffice (which uses Microsofts OOXML as internal format) instead of helping https://www.opendesk.eu/en/about and the Collabora people prefer infighting with The Document Foundation. Le sigh. (slightly exaggerated, but reflects my disappointment)

Dans ma commune, le peu de conversations locales en ligne semble avoir lieu uniquement sur Facebook. J'aimerais bien proposer un espace alternatif, sur Mastodon.
Je doute que ça vaille la peine d'ouvrir une instance juste pour le peu qu'on sera.
Mais quelle instance existante utiliser, alors? Piaille?
Vous connaissez une instance dédiée aux discussions locales dans des petites communes ?
Euro-Office: sovereign in name only, or in reality too? - TDF Community Blog

The announcement of the Euro-Office is welcome news. The coalition is credible, the governance is sound and the timing is perfect. Europe needs office software, and The Document Foundation is delighted to see such significant players allocating resources to make it happen. However, we have a question. It is not meant to be hostile, but it is the only question that matters. What is the native document format of Euro-Office? The press release promises full compatibility with Microsoft formats. We are well aware of the logic behind migration: organisations moving away from Microsoft need to be certain that their documents will survive the transition. But “full compatibility with Microsoft formats” is certainly not a definition of sovereignty, but rather the definition of a different kind of dependency. OOXML is a format designed, controlled and managed solely by Microsoft. Building a European office suite prioritising compatibility with OOXML means ensuring that the European document infrastructure remains subordinate to architectural decisions made in Redmond. The hosting moves to Europe, but the lock-in remains in Redmond. The alternative exists, is mature and is a law in several European jurisdictions. ODF, the Open Document Format, is an ISO standard developed through an open and

Mein Laptop ist gestern von der Reparatur zurĂŒckgekehrt & bereits Mastodon-ifiziert ^^

I am happy to see that @EUCommission is listening to the demands of @keepandroidopen by adding a whole section about it in the #DMA FAQ website.

Android became too important to be left under such lock-in.
