Google has suspended Element (@matrix) from the Play Store for "Sexual Content and Profanity". Basically same story as with Subway Tooter a while back. Element is to Matrix as Chrome is to the web. Curiously, Chrome is still on the Play Store.
@jonn nvm, figured out how to get DE multiplayer working on Linux. My steam code is 94424484, 1v1 arabia, let’s go
Sudo is vulnerable to a nasty privesc.
Update ASAP.
Reading a post on some #gemini server's security design[1] reminded me of participating in #hxp #ctf. All of their challenges were completely open-source. The challenge I was solving called "heiko" had a very similar structure. Convincing, but pwnable.
I wonder if vger is also pwnable. Anyway, this post would make a nice high-level #ctf chall.

And you know what, #cryptocurrencies too converge to centralisation.
To paraphrase what I said before in one of my rants on this #mastodon instance, we need our non-tech friends to be able to run their social presence, private websites, everything they get "for free" from the giants from their computing devices, persistently.
That's why I care so much about giving the control over identity management to humans and integrate with with their existing patterns of them using their electronic devices.
I've played just two ranked games of #AoE2 so far, but I was a mid-high diamond zerg in #StarCraft.

I think everybody who's mildly into #RTS knows that, but in case someone didn't, here are some facts:
1. #BlizzardEntertainment is actively supporting fascist government of #China[1][2]. This is why me and many other people #BoycottBlizzard still.
2. Many high-level people from #BlizzardEntertainment quit and started #FrostGiantStudios[3]
3. While we still wait for an #RTS we can enjoy ethically, a great idea is to play #AgeOfEmpires, which has recently gotten a gorgeous make-over in something called "Definitive Edition"[4], which compiles base game, addon and all the additional content spanning twenty years. It even got its first DLC just two days ago![5].

To avoid eternal games, if we go five full moves with no pawn moves or captures, with 6 or fewer pieces on the board, the bot will query an endgame tablebase and adjudicate draws if one has become inevitable. https://github.com/niklasf/lila-tablebase#http-api
New game in about half an hour!
Going to parcitipate in my first #machinelearning contest for 5 days starting at Feb 14th.
Any suggestions from #fediverse to a #machinelearning beginner?
The debate about hate speech on #p2p what is barely mentioned is the absolutely key feature of P2P:
In P2P network *you* route other people's messages. If you don't like them, you don't route them and they're no longer propagating through the network through your node.
In case of the 2020 report that focuses on #ssb there's a single barely visible mention of this fundamental feature ("refusing to propagate their messages"):

OOM'ed my Linux laptop with a stray #peertube tab :D
I released Grim (https://github.com/jeffkreeftmeijer/vim-dim/blob/49c5833997461afbd5c9b06582d23382e40a245f/colors/grim.vim), and vim-nightfall (https://github.com/jeffkreeftmeijer/vim-nightfall) this week, so I’ve officially added both to my Vim configuration for monochrome syntax highlighting in both light and dark mode.
