Interesting… just saw a sidebar on a YouTube video for a fundraiser being run by the channel. Was legitimately surprised to see YouTube doing product development to further YouTube itself as a revenue center instead of just treating YouTube as a site for investor storytime about how Google is adopting "AI"

As someone who was a true devotee of FutureWave Smartsketch (which became FutureSplash Animator, which became Adobe Shockwave Flash, which became Adobe Flash, which became Adobe Animator) my sorrow is incalculable. Every day I long for software I had in the 90s which I can't find anything as good as today.

You don't use open source software because it's better (it usually isn't).
You don't use open source software because it's freer (it only sometimes is).
You don't use open source software because it's got better politics (it isn't always).
You use open source software because *it is the only option*. In the long run, if it isn't open source, it doesn't exist.

Hello! QUICK TIME EVENT STREAM
I'm visiting @nprofile…hs48 and brought my Analogue 3D and so I am going to do what I've been meaning to do at home:
I am , right now , streaming "Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness", the 2nd of the "interesting, but maybe not good" N64 Castlevania games released over the course of a single year by Konami. I've never played this game before this and I am SO curious. Zandra and her wife Amber will be present for Game Design Analysis!

The flat design revolution, which is now so deeply embedded in UI/UX we no longer bother to name it, has now moved its quest to make all icons monochrome, abstract and denuded of detail to the point where the "profile" icon for Tidal now appears to be some sort of glyph of a insect or fairy
Following historical trends, before long these icons will start to be used as analogues for their sounds, creating the basis of a primitive alphabet. What you see below will someday be the character for "P".

LLM advocates and their enablers will hide the fact that they are posting stolen code— they brag about this, their most widely-effective argument for LLM code being allowed in OSS is "if you tell us we can't, we'll do it and not tell you"— and attempts to track which open source projects use stolen code will be harassed off the Internet. I do not want to be part of this open source community, so the only options I seem to have are to wall myself off from it, or stop doing open source altogether.

Team/single dude behind Blacksky announces plans to ship an open payments app based on ATProto tech. I am very curious about this, as Rudy has managed to build at least one thing nobody else succeeded at, but also skeptical because:
- Blacksky works well but has not (yet?) lived up to its promises on independence/uncensorability
- I know people who tried to create payment processors and the hard part is preventing the upstream from censoring you, not building web apps.

To be clear, "it's there but you can turn it off" is not enough for me, I already stopped using SwiftKey, Microsoft Windows, Miro, etc on the basis of "we put AI in the software with an option to turn it off". If an org ships a "generative AI" product I want to boycott them and I want everyone to boycott them until they go out of business. I don't want a virus on my hard drive even if it's turned off. But Mozilla's ever-shifting checkbox scavenger hunt has never *resembled* "can easily turn off"

"AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off."
Since this is the flat out opposite of Firefox now—you have to go into unsupported debug settings and click eight boxes based on folklore—and there's no acknowledgement that this comment is a complete 180 on Firefox's current policy of enabling AI in secret then trying to trick you into using it… this statement is not a reassurance to me. It feels dishonest and like a continuation of Firefox's dishonesty about AI, "PPA" etc.

You *can* build a decentralized technical / internet system which is actually decentralized, of course. There are lots of examples of that too. But since that isn't the kind of system capitalism naturally builds, what you probably won't do is get *funding* to create that system. And that means *completing* your decentralized system is hard and gets harder the further past 1990 we get and the more you expect your decentralized system to do.

2025-12-06 22:36:43 UTC

Capitalism is *all about*, at its core, building decentralized systems which on inspection turn out to be centrally controlled, or controlled via a "one dollar one vote" democracy of the five or six richest people in the system (in other words informal centralization, without the committee that makes the decisions having a name).
The decentralized internet systems that capitalism builds reflect this. There's lots of examples of it. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bluesky.

So here's what stops me from using Passkeys.
- I want Passkeys.

- BitWarden can use passkeys on all my platforms incl Android.
- However, I do not install BitWarden on all my computers, because I don't trust some of them to hold my BitWarden vault.
- This means I have to have a way of "airgapping" the passkey— some way of using a passkey on a phone, is a computer.
- The ONLY way to do this the FIDO Alliance allows requires Bluetooth.

If you describe a situation and OpenAI finds for you an existing image, you know what image database the image came from, and you know whether you're allowed to use it, and you know you're committing a crime, and OpenAI wants to relieve you of this final burden.

2025-12-04 19:48:44 UTC

One thing about "AI" is with the technology OpenAI has (large neural network plus manual tagging) you could've made the best search engine ever. There could be a Copilot where you describe what you wanted and it finds an example of it in the corpus of open source software. You could go from a fuzzy image description to a stock image. These would be better than buggy code and fucked up images. But they wouldn't do that because the *service* OpenAI provides is obscuring that the content is stolen.

Anyway I remain baffled by how many people responded "yeah, of course?" to this while my response was "why would you do that!!" and I'm thinking that the people responding yes must have been exposed to dairy cows whereas I had only ever encountered cows in a ranching context https://mastodon.online/@Pepijn/115645813940637553

@nprofile…yk2u Yes, but there's a problem, which is that the "product" *is* the chat-style interface, not the models. The models are only important insofar as they provide the illusion of the chat-style interface, which is the thing the customer wants. Perhaps the customer is even right to want it

The thing that transforms large-language-model "AI"¹ from "a bad idea"² to "a fatal idea"² is "self-hosting"²: in other words, the idea the people making the AI can "program"¹ the AI by way of inputs to the AI.
This idea is foundational to the OpenAI approach, and it does not work, but the model tech is good enough at lying³ that in a formal QA setting it appears to work.

³ Yes, an unthinking object can lie. It just can't tell the truth.

Oh, I *will* be using this as a reaction image online.

Science fiction novel about, and from the perspective of, a species from a planet with liquid methane oceans; periodically throughout the novel water must be discussed, and they perpetually refer to it as "liquid ice"

Me, on a Sunday: I will wear big pink fuzzy socks on a winter Sunday ✨🎉 they are so comfy and warm ✨🎉 this is a great idea ✨🎉 nothing bad will happen
Me, three years previous: I will attach small velcro loops to all my computer cables ✨🎉 this will make them easier to store and organize ✨🎉 I will allow these cables to collect to collect in a big mass under my desk ✨🎉 this is a good idea ✨🎉 nothing bad will happen

If you are using the "NVidia App" on Windows, I suggest promptly going in to the settings, looking under "Notifications" and turning off "Available Rewards". If you do not do this, it apparently now uses the Windows notifications to show you fucking ads for random video games

@nprofile…2n40 My working model is that if AI can be successfully used for a job, that job didn't need to get done at all. Someone who chooses to use AI is making a judgement "it's okay if this job is done wrong"; if it's okay if the job can be done wrong, then logically it follows it could be skipped completely.
If the higher you get in an organization, the more you can successfully use AI without anyone noticing the difference, then what does this say about top-heavy organizations?

Internet age verification kills anonymity and risks your data. It's a terrible idea, and the fact the UK and the most conservative parts of the US were the first to embrace it should tell you that. The EU shouldn't let this bad idea infect you. https://mastodon.social/@Tutanota/115621195342074414

The lack of functional discovery features on Mastodon is so nice. One of the worst experiences on Bluesky is making a post and then 18 hours later completely random people start Discovering it. And they're almost never happy to see it, nor do they remotely understand the intent or context. Make a post for your friends on Bluesky and wake up the next morning to a bunch of messages from mystery people along the lines of "why did you post this??". And I just want to know well why did you read it??

Yeah so Bluesky has been down for like an hour. Anyone not on a self hosted PDS just gets a spinner if they open the app. I'm self hosted, so *I* can log in and post, and I can see my own posts, but because Bluesky uses the "it's not a blockchain, I promise!" relay system, I can't see anyone ELSE'S posts, not even if they're self hosted too.
