Edited to update: BlackQueerLife instance now has a properly-set-up channel for receiving money contributions. If you wanted the Fediverse to be more welcoming to Black people, it's one practical way to help :-)

New instance for Black queer people:

"My intention for BlackQueerLife is that when Black queers are searching for a place in the fediverse to call home, we are accessible to them."

#Black #queer #fediverse

I have a bunch of clothes that I want to get rid of - either giving them away or selling them for a few dollars each. They're femme coded, plus sizes. Mostly tops, a few skirts, and a few dresses.

I'd love to give them to other trans people who either can't get clothes, or who want a few things to experiment with while working out their gender before buying clothes.

I'd like to put them on a site with a picture, sizing info, material info, etc so that I can post the link to all the items and people can contact me with questions and requests.

Does anyone have an idea about a site I could use for this sort of thing? Something that's easy to use (and free).

the web site: there was an error

me: oh? no worries I'll take a look; what line was the error

the web site: it was on line 1

me: oh! the first line, huh... which column?

the web site: column two million six hundred ten thousand seven hundred and sixty eight

I took the IRC game I wrote for the lisp game jam and submitted it to the Linux Game Jam kind of on a lark since they just happened to overlap in timing; turns out they seemed to really like it! placed 5th out of 47: https://itch.io/jam/linux-game-jam2023/rate/2091620

Because I'm not hearing a lot of chatter on the Fediverse about this here are the CVEs and their summaries for the issues fixed in today's release:

CVE-2023-36460

Starting in version 3.5.0 and prior to versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3, attackers using carefully crafted media files can cause Mastodon's media processing code to create arbitrary files at any location. This allows attackers to create and overwrite any file Mastodon has access to, allowing Denial of Service and arbitrary Remote Code Execution.

CVE-2023-36459

Starting in version 1.3 and prior to versions 3.5.9, 4.0.5, and 4.1.3, an attacker using carefully crafted oEmbed data can bypass the HTML sanitization performed by Mastodon and include arbitrary HTML in oEmbed preview cards. This introduces a vector for cross-site scripting (XSS) payloads that can be rendered in the user's browser when a preview card for a malicious link is clicked through.

#MastoAdmin

First real-world dlayer module successfully implemented \o/

The LVM part of my 'system query API' project now lives in its own separate module, and works!

It feels super weird when people diss the fact that some people *like* the current state of the #Fediverse and don't necessarily care if it grows bigger or not.

Like…the very notion that growth is a *primary goal* of a social structure is in some ways problematic.

I used to be involved in a very evangelistic religion. A big part of the belief system was you need new converts all the time.

That belief often meant *existing social structures were harmed* in the name of growth.

Problematic.

"Why are these two values getting swapped around in my code?"

... several minutes later ...

"... oh, they're not, I just swapped around the debug texts in my console.logs 🤦‍♂️ "

RE: Evernote news on HN [firing all staff].

The story only seems to be Hacker News/Y. But just in case:

You can download & export your entire Evernote collection using evernote-backup: github.com/vzhd1701/evernote-b

Can't do it in the official app anymore without a $paid$ plan.

@tobi @vyr Come to GotoSocial. We have...

- Skeletons
- That weird smell in the corner of the code
- Sloths
- LAG!

@researchfairy Indeed!

BTW there's a precedent: this is essentially what the Dutch parliament did in 2015 through an amendment to copyright law ('amendement Taverne'). All publicly funded scientists connected to Dutch institutions are by law allowed to share and archive their papers in perpetual open access

I don't often get excited about laws or amendments but this is one of my faves
