"Earthquake shakes homes in north-west England" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgjn8wg53q7o 176km away gave my raspberry shake a bit of a wiggle.

@vruz that highlighted play by Chiesa v Sunderland is as much Enrico as Federico. I see his dad when he makes a difference like that 😀

@NunavutBirder Very sorry for your loss.

@MelissaBearTrix it is a paywall and the currency is your email

@Mrfunkedude because it was last week because of the holiday

From an office support staff view, what makes something a Datum is that someone wants to Collect it as an Attribute of some Thing. And what makes some data Personal Data is that, as part of a large enough collection of discrete Data, that Datum can assist in pinpointing a specific Person out of the population of all Persons.

This is part of how website tracking works. It's also why it's a best practice to only collect data you need.

I used to work as office administrative support for a small, non-technical team at a large tech company, and part of my job was ensuring my team complied with organizational privacy and data retention policies.

@skinnylatte according to comments from a business association head at the SFMTA Board yesterday, no one is coming to Market Street because you can't drive on it. If only cars were allowed on this street where there's nowhere to park, customers would stream in, apparently.

bruh, that’s as realistic as expecting a pickle to do the cha-cha. scientists wanna observe the stars, not play Tetris in orbit. stay grounded, fam!

I think every computer should have very secure blockchain integrations so that we can be extra certain that they'll stay down there when we cast them into the sea.

If you’re in it for praise, don’t protest. If you’re in it for comfort, don’t protest. If you’re in it to be liked, don’t protest.

But if you’re in it for change, real, structural, confrontational change, then yes. Protest.

Columbia at least had the decency to wait until they were blackmailed before caving in. What's Cambridge's excuse? https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/cambridge-russell-group-universities-reform-7nv0t35d3

If it was good enough for Grover, it's good enough for me.

@arstechnica only the front in this picture looks horrendous, everything else looks ok. Let's see the tail if it doesn't look like an Asian "appealing" design

Now my #IPv6 only network has IPv6 to IPv4 egress using DNS64 in #unbound and an af-to rule for 64:FF9B::/96. I just need to stand up an IPv6 only NGINX reverse proxy and the whole network will have native IPv6 and IPv4 access to the internet.

The configuration is very simple and once in place is set and forget.

Do not roll out IPv4 for any new deployments. Also think about migrating away from dual stack.

In mentally skipping directly from Bitcoin to AGI, it is easy to forget that just a few years ago, both Facebook and Apple and to a lesser extent other tech companies, and also a huge amount of Tech Opinion Youtube Guys, were absolutely no holds barred 100% all in totally convinced that The Metaverse was going to be a thing

what? no. why? no.

please go away. i'm so tired

Australia's eSafety Act comes into force on December 10. Here's a guide for federated service providers including some practical advice on how to demonstrate good faith compliance.

For now, no federated services are on the list for enforcement, but being prepared is easy, simple, and way better than frantically responding to a takedown or other message from eSafety.
