Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

@bram_dingelstad Probably worth trying that first, would probably be simpler to implement :) Though I wonder whether it'd survive any transcoding process
@bram_dingelstad I don't recall any of the specific algorithms unfortunately, but a quick search turned up this one which seems promising at a glance: https://www.iasj.net/iasj/download/cac16130d9ed9c32
@bram_dingelstad AFAIK there are watermarking systems which survive encoding and compression! Precisely to prevent stripping out the watermark. And it'd be kind of poetic to straight-up use a sharing-prevention mechanism for sharing stuff :)
@bram_dingelstad How about encoding it into the video data itself, like how 'invisible watermarks' work?

I’d tell you a Fibonacci joke, but it’s probably as bad as the last two you’ve heard combined.

Tell me you don't understand the fediverse without telling me...

Many years ago I saw a few images from a Japanese photographer who would walk and photograph the same route daily, if I recall correctly many of them featured a tall red chimney, perhaps from a bath house. This process - repetition, place and memory - are very interesting to me. Would love to revisit that work. Can anyone help me find the photographer again?
@devurandom@cybre.space Sounds good :) Probably a good idea to list Delta Chat after Matrix though, as it seems to not have any forward secrecy (just like PGP which it's apparently built upon, via Autocrypt)
@devurandom@cybre.space Also, +1 for pointing out that DMs on Twitter are also unencrypted :)
@devurandom@cybre.space A couple of suggestions:
- "Jabber" -> XMPP, which is both the official and the common name nowadays, and distinguishes from the jabber.org service
- "Element" -> "Matrix using eg. Element", to distinguish between the protocol and a specific client
- Removing "Telegram" or at least adding a warning - its homegrown E2EE crypto is highly questionable and generally not taken seriously by cryptographers

Can any of you recommend fantasy artwork of arachnids depicted in a positive light? I'm wanting character artwork for a species that are roughly waist-high spiders.
Part of the lore of my game is that, if you can put your prejudices aside, the arachnids and the humans hold a lot of psychology in common, where's the other bipedal races are *quite* psychologically different.

International Workers' Day.
It's either May 1st, or the first Monday of May.
The eight-hour work-day, the weekend, workers' compensation, living wage laws...
