tl;dr, podcasts are expensive to produce, about $1000/hour with video, hosts (local and remote), and post-production. TWiT is going through hard times and some shows and hosts have to go. Sadly, FLOSS was on the chopping block.

Advertisers just aren’t interested in podcasts anymore. If you still want to support the network after this, give Leo $7/month and join Club TWiT. I don’t give a rat’s ass about Discord, but I do want to prevent stuff like this.

Validrive is a new tool that’s quite good at detecting fakes.

I use Monal on iOS and it’s worked quite well so far. I admit I just joined the XMPP adventure.

Nobody has ever given me a dime. But they do give me bug reports, pull requests, and the occasional email or toot of gratitude.

Yes, and the RRSIG record will prove that it hasn’t been tampered with.

As soon as everyone signs their zones with DNNSEC, we can implement DANE to use self-signed certificates safely, and all our problems will go away, world peace will be achieved, and food will taste better.

I’m not sure if this is legally binding, but it’s a way to prove that someone said “I signed this document and it has not been modified.” While S/MIME certificates are most commonly used for this purpose, getting one (especially for free) is nearly impossible. Signing with a GPG key is just using another tool, one whose ecosystem doesn’t require CA-sanctioned trust; the reader decides which keys are trusted and verified.

Awesome! Now, if only I could move my Mastodon toots or PixelFed photos to another server. Sure, I can redirect my accounts, but then I’m stuck with the old content on another feed.

The project would have to support reproducible builds somehow. For example, supply a Makefile and a hash of the generated executable.

Simple. Your users don’t care if it’s insecure. They click on fake password reset emails. You’re the bad guy here. They still haven’t forgiven you for requiring them to enter numbers when they want to log in.

It’ll be a long time coming. I’ll be in a nursing home by the time ReactOS can even replace Windows 98, much less XP.

But I’ll be goddamned thrilled when you do, because that’ll be 95% of the Win32 API.

We’ve been trying to order Saddam Husseins, but they’re back ordered. Why not try building that building instead?

Got it. Thank you!

I know, right? I love mine. The CEO of GM loves hers. Supposedly the data-harvesting Equinox EV will replace it sometime in the next few years, despite it not being a 1:1 replacement.

Does this regulation require user-replaceable batteries, or just batteries users can replace with light tools? Are we talking a return to BlackBerry, or will iPhones without glue suffice? Can Tesla continue to sell cars in Europe, or will it have to be built like the Chevy Bolt with ten bolts and a few coolant lines separating skilled users from a thousand pounds of lithium-ion cells?

Heinz… hmm, is Wall Street Bets on Lemmy yet?

It’s… beautiful.

How can I report a post for disinformation?

You beat me to it, good sir. Here’s some alt-text: “I didn’t wash today. I wasn’t dirty. If I’m not dirty, I don’t wash. Some weeks I don’t have to shower at all. I just groom my three basic areas: teeth, hair, and asshole. And to save time, I use the same brush.”

We joke, but this is one of the last reasons why I’m still on Instagram.
