WE DID IT. WE WON. 💜✊

Wikimedia Foundation workers voted 158 YES to 14 NO: 91.9% of ballots cast, with 81% turnout.

We’re so proud of everyone who built this union, and this win belongs to our whole community. We could not have done it without the solidarity of Wikimedia volunteers.

This is just the beginning. We stand with our UK siblings in their recognition process now, and with future organizing efforts across WMF’s global workforce. 🌍

@calx exactly as you described, a fingerprint of a public key should be sufficient proof, given some other assumptions--in particular, firefox didn't specify how we know to trust and verify their key material!

compare for example to yubico (https://circumstances.run/@hipsterelectron/116336526842775057), who actually does two things exactly right here! [even though i clown on them in that thread a lot lol]

@Armavica totally agree! And while ironically I embody that very hegemonic demographics you're rightly pointing out, my talk at #SOTM2026 ("Whose Knowledge Counts? Analysing Diversity and Exclusion in OpenStreetMap's Tagging Proposals Process") was precisely about this, but in a very specific contribution type: tagging proposals.

The first part of the session covered why maps are not neutral and why the lack of diversity is an issue.

@catsalad
This also works if you replace “Mastodon” with “AI output”.

one of the yubico developers who signed version 5.9.0 of their linux tarball two months ago is using an expired RSA key https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-manager/Releases/

also like https://github.com/Yubico/python-fido2?tab=readme-ov-file

KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", \

why does this updated page say MODE="0664"

why would our good friend dain make this extremely subtle yet unmistakeable change in the process of copying over the repo from google https://github.com/Yubico/python-fido2/commit/1b419592bf687cf7edfdd7ea05ae176fab11e0e9#diff-2b7814d3fca2e99e56c51b6ff2aa313ea6e9da6424804240aa8ad891fdfe0900, who is still using MODE="0660" in their udev rules https://github.com/Yubico/libfido2/blob/541500407f9d8d5d4f46f27424da74ba76ead136/udev/70-u2f.rules#L84-L118

@mdm @troublewithwords @andrew @abucci @randomgeek i can name a major tech corporation who was sending their engineers labeled yubico packages in 2016-2017 (facebook)

Mastodon is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in your timeline are either products of the poster's imagination or are used fictitiously.

@mdm @troublewithwords @andrew @abucci @randomgeek yubico used to ship boxes labeled "yubico" in the mail like that doesn't compromise their customers' security. don't think they do that anymore at least i'm pretty sure mine did not do that

Today, it's jetlagged and exhausted geography quizzes, so the results will be what they'll be.

First one is surprisingly okay (I even did okay for India, it's somehow the only state I know where to locate)
