There is one good thing about the fascist Chat Control: all the kids will learn to use VPN & other privacy tools + learn to hate the state, as it should be.

EU will scan every message ECB will scan every transaction We are approaching levels of control never even dreamed by the KGB.

EU Officials are exempt from Chat Control. You’ll be under surveillance, they won’t. Convenient.

Regina Doherty MEP EPP Group You're an imbecile. This won't stop anything. The kids on social media don't have parents who actually "parent". All they're going to do is find a bypass or convince their parent (or some other adult) to allow them access to the social media platform. You've just given large

Sort notice, but we're hosting a Cloud Native Mauritius meetup this weekend at Kuumba Coffee, Telfair. Usual time of 10 to 2. This meetup is not sponsored, so no free lunch :P We still have a slot or two open, so please get in touch if you have a talk idea!

Bad intensions and general censorship hidden behind child protection arguments? It depends... 😏 jain.rs/mauritius/icta… Sorry to say, you cannot differentiate between adult and child devices. Neither from households nor on SIM cards which are bought by adults anyways. 🙄

the wok rust won... It's ogre

Banning youth from social media just means: - More mass surveillance - More child abuse gone under the radar - Less outlets for Youth to seek community and support when they can’t find it elsewhere (especially amongst abused, queer, disabled, and other more marginalized youth)

Heartbreaking: The Rust experiment in the Linux kernel comes to an end. Heartwarming: It graduated past "experimental" and will go on to be a core part of Linux 🥳

I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that I'll be talking at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon in Amsterdam next year about my "cloud platform" KRaft! It's going to be a fun conference :D

Federation isn’t just a feature, it’s how we reject oppression by design. In the EU, Big Centralised Tech is facing fines for selling verification and hiding ads. At Mastodon, we’re building something different: a space where no one buys influence and there simply aren't any

So grok apparently hid their media tab to hide that they're generating all these women and children without their consent??? (It's still all visible if you looo at the replies) Idk if there has ever been something THIS bad on twitter before. Like I can't even give justice how

Not sure your chatbot generating child porn is particularly funny!

this is for everyone, but especially everyone who has ever looked at my posts & thought “wow, i wish i could work on a rocket!”, or your head is in the sand and you’re disappointed because i stopped posting tech content recently. you know me as a rocket network engineer, so this

Crossposting off Mastodon for a minute. I setup a server today with 2 E5 2697v2s for 24c and 48t paired with 128GB of RAM. I intend on getting it ready for running KRaft, possibly for KubeCon and/or DevCon. This bad boy can fit so many virtual clusters😆

Im so tired of not speaking on this. It feels wrong and irresponsible, regardless of the repercussions. ICE is murdering people. They’re untrained and unstable.

I won't even say "wow what a coincidence to have predicted this"; it was plain as day. Yet some people will still tell me that "it's just X" or "the US is the greatest country in the world"
