@graygoogirl@tech.lgbt Not to worry, a membership list still appears to be present elsewhere on the site: ufoi.org/instance-member-repre (with the usual caveat that it's not clear that all the admins were actually aware of what they signed up to)

@Shine_McShine @swrdghcnqstdr Details have been hard to get hold of unfortunately, but I've heard repeated complaints (from people I would personally consider trustworthy) that they have a habit of using other people's work without attribution, and are structurally *depending* on free labour from the community for their company

@ajroach42 Ah, given the "small town" context, I was assuming an area where no makerspace would be readily available

@scanlime So what they're saying is, we should express our discontent on the RPi forums?

pls boost am testing gotosocial concurrency

"Excuse me," said the robot.
"How can I help?" the librarian asked.
"I have just been manufactured. My training includes everything I need to work, and to navigate society."
"That's nice."
"But..."
"Yes?
"Is there more?"
"Yes!"

@porsupah Do they have some indicator as to whether a given ebook will have DRM? For some reason, no mixed-inventory e-book seller seems to do this...

A cluster of Raspberry Pi will be henceforth referred to as a spoiled fruit.

@SigmaOne@toot.party @prehensile@tech.lgbt For me it's like, there are certainly jobs that I'd like to do *sometimes*, but not full-time (or on any regular employment schedule really), and simulators can scratch that itch for me

@SigmaOne@toot.party @prehensile@tech.lgbt People are all like "but if we didn't force people to work for their money, nobody would do any work, nothing would get done"

And meanwhile vast swathes of people are playing Hard Work Simulator 2022 every weekend on their time off

@wmd@chaos.social Other: the security value in 2FA comes from having two isolated *environments* needing to be compromised, with each of them being at least nominally secured.

This is why "login on laptop with 2FA auth app on phone" is 2FA, but "login on phone with that same 2FA app" is not. And why a (safely designed) hardware key can make a good second factor (it's an isolated environment).

I hate the refrain of "something you know and something you have" so, *so* much. It's ambiguous, doesn't actually teach people *why* a second factor is secure, and it's at the root of so many wrong conclusions about 2FA...

@aeva Ohhh, I thought you meant a wood fireplace! I have no idea about the gas ones.

@aeva Is it an open fireplace? As those are generally not just very (indoors-)air-polluting but also not very efficient heat-wise, compared to closed wood burning thingems

POLL: What's your gender?

@triton It appears that at least one instance admin was misled about the UFoI and has since cut ties: stop.voring.me/notes/98iy4aija (but I don't know the details/context)

Pay attention to who is defending Rasberry at this moment.

They are showing you who they are.
