Wow, the bare minimum. Bravo. I bet everyone clapped when they paid their workers, too.

Users should’ve gone to mastodon to begin with. Why the fuck would they leave a monolithic corpo platform for another monolithic corpo platform? It’s stupid.

This literally already happened here in Sweden. A guy got assaulted by masked police in the middle of the night because an American company had gone through photos in his Yahoo mail and flagged his 30 year old boyfriend as possible CSAM.

Long article in Swedish.

People like to think that Sweden is progressive etc. and I’d rebut it with this. If it can happen here, it could happen anywhere.

Was a gay guy here in Sweden who got assaulted and kidnapped by masked police because some American company had found CSAM on his account while crawling through Yahoo email.

Only it wasn’t CSAM, the photos depicted the man’s 30 year old twinky boyfriend.

No restitution. No police were punished for assaulting a suspect proved innocent. The man and his boyfriend both were humiliated.

I’ve no mixed feelings about it. Spying through private data is entirely unforgivable. There are plenty of pedos out there who get caught and nothing happens anyway. They don’t need to violate innocent people’s privacy to do their job.

Like if the ends justify the means you can end all suffering in the world by just nuking everything. All problems solved.

Edit: pesos → pedos

My OS has never needed to know my DoB before. What’s it gonna do, make me a cake?

This is not AI bullshit?

Per their own description

MCP is an open protocol that enables AI models to securely interact with local and remote resources through standardized server implementations. This list focuses on production-ready and experimental MCP servers that extend AI capabilities through file access, database connections, API integrations, and other contextual services.

It’s ironic that they’d complain that their PRs are just auto-generated slop when they’re collating tools for that exact purpose. They made that bed, so now they should lie in it.

I thought it was something related to Minecraft, but it’s a slop enabler so honestly, poetic justice. If someone who peddles slop is upset about receiving slop, I’m happy.

Always pour it into a bowl, then eat the crisps using chopsticks. Though that latter part is because I don’t like getting stuff on my hands.

It used to be no time at all. You could just do it. From that perspective they’ve already taken a mile.

Too many people are willingly paying anti-democratic billionaires to outsource their thinking and agency.

I saw a vibe coded PR the other day. So much redundant code, lots of comments making assumptions and questions. It’s a mess.

Glad it didn’t land in my lap but the person who is now responsible for steering that up is already quite busy and wasting their time with this feels shit.

This is why I love media analysis. I didn’t give this post any more thought than “ha, funny sleep paralysis demon comic” and now you’ve given me a new perspective.

Lovely stuff.

I hate that “the curtains are fucking blue” post, so thank you.
