Ich habe wohl einen möglichen Angriffsvektor gegen die neuen #Polizeipanzer Survivor R von Rheinmetall gefunden und versucht diesen zu melden. Da Hersteller und Politik kein Problem an der Sicherheitslücke sehen, mache ich meine Entdeckung nun publik.

So hat mir ein Beamter der Polizei Berlin am Tag der offenen Tür erklärt, dass die Motorhaube des Fahrzeugs sich nur von außen öffnen lässt und sich dies von innen auch nicht verhindern lässt.

cursed fact: Adobe Podcast's "Enhance AI", a tool for noise removal and voice boosting, firmly believes that any audio you give it *must* have human speech.

If you upload, say, vocal-free chiptunes playing on a Game Boy, it will *find* the speech.

please do not tap on the glass. it's tempered glass. tapping infuriates it

Anytime someone sets a feature as a non-default, I assume 95% of users never touch it. When they put it under the “Privacy” settings menu, I raise my expectation to 99%.

But Privacy -> Settings -> Advanced, wow. That’s like putting it in a disused lavatory in the basement of the town hall, with a sign that says “Beware of Tiger.”

the most 2023-internet thing is that when you google "public domain icons" you mainly get sites which offer commercial or limited-use icons, but you get their icons that show the idea of "public domain".

lots of copyright symbols with a big NO symbol over it, available to license for limited personal use for 5.99$ a month

During the chit chat beginning of a virtual meeting someone, when asked how he was, said "I've had a bit of a violent flu" and the person leading the meeting said "A lot of people seem to be saying that lately! There must be something going around."

Yeah I wonder what that could be!

#CovidIsNotOver

There are so many good reasons for using CWs, here are some of them:

- Giving people a choice whether to engage with content that might trigger traumata or unpleasant memories (e.g. sexual assault, war, sickness and injury, ...)
- Giving people a choice whether they want to be confronted with specific content at a specific point in time (e.g. food when you're hungry, your favourite TV series or video game when you're at work, ...)
- As meta-info, clarifying that your post is ironic, a quote, a reference...
- Keeping very long posts hidden on your followers timelines until they decide to read them
- Giving people a choice whether to engage with content that might be of little interest to them (fandom, niche interests, convoluted academical talk, technobabble, ...)
- Making the timeline more accessible for folks using screen readers, e.g. when using a lot of emoji

isreal 

Wanneer je vanuit de overheid statements ziet als "achter Israel staan" of "onze bondgenoot steunen", realiseer je dan dat dat om dit land gaat:

forward.com/fast-forward/56569

Dit is niet eens een beetje vergelijkbaar met Oekraine. Israel is een openlijk fascistische en kolonialistische staat, en is dat al heel lang - en onder andere de Nederlandse staat heeft daar actief aan bijgedragen en steun aan verleend.

Uiteraard is het onwenselijk dat er burgers om het leven komen. Maar realiseer je wel dat de verantwoordelijkheid daarvoor primair bij de koloniserende staat ligt, en dat er aan de Palestijnse kant door de jaren heen *heel veel* meer slachtoffers gevallen zijn waar je nauwelijks iets over hoort.

De oorlog is helemaal niet net begonnen; die is al decennia bezig, met de Israelische staat als primaire aggressor.

Dus als iemand verklaart achter Israel te staan en die persoon zich nooit over het lot van Palestijnen uitgesproken heeft, dan zou ik toch ernstige vraagtekens zetten bij dies prioriteiten en onderliggende politiek.

i am already angered and horrified by the ongoing genocide that apartheid isreal has been committing. but these "Queering the Map" entries have absolutely destroyed me. this is who white queer and trans people are leaving behind when they dehumanize palestinians and fall for israeli pinkwashing. if anything, please see palestinians as humans with a full spectrum of emotion and life. the genocide and occupation must end.

#QueeringTheMap

One of my favorite things about the new IOS 17 haptics is that, even with my phone muted, I can tell who's texting me by the pitch my phone's vibrating at on my desk. I have it set so my important people cause my phone to vibrate at different pitches. Thanks apple

It is often hard for me to switch tasks. Especially when I get into a hyperfocus state. 🧘

I've always struggled to explain to others why it is so difficult. 🤔

“Tendril theory" by Erin Human explains it really well.

poll for people who identify as agender 

What are your pronouns? :boost_request:

Please only vote for the one you feel most comfortable with. I realize there are people with multiple pronouns, however multiple choice leads to assumptions and the results are harder to grasp.

Alvast? 🙄

Finding the WHATWG specifications to be extremely well-written, so far

One of the best things about Rome is that you can visit the actual place where Julius ceaser was ganked, and it's not only an archaeological ruin but also a cat sanctuary #cats #catsofmastodon
