#Meta to Pay Up to $17 Billion in Landmark Settlement Over Social Media Addiction Claims
@technomancy Question is why _shouldn't_ a binary just come with source available and a way to contribute upstream, all the time?

ELF is perfectly fine with crap appended to it, so it'd be pretty straightforward to prefix your sqlite executable with an ELF stub that loads and runs the actual code.

A story in two pictures:
An article from Euractiv from July stating "Von der Leyen is expected to use her annual State of the Union speech to unveil plans for EU-wide age restrictions on social media". And then a pic of a W Social post announcing the live-stream of the EC state of the Union speech.
This is precisely why I keep speaking up about #WSocial:
We are at a dangerous turning point when it comes to online privacy and it seems that the European Commission has chosen this network because of its built-in age verification.
Truth is: even if their PDS hosts 28k accounts, only 2612 people (as of this morning) have ever published a single post or reply on W.
Their #WIdentity app is so broken, it has mostly one-star ratings on Google Play Store (yes, you read it right, the network of European digital sovereignty requires an app from Google or Apple to verify one's identity).
Most egregiously, W Social does NOT do any content moderation to rein in hate speech. I find daily examples of racist, transphobic and xenophobic posts that are simply allowed. Thankfully on the ATmosphere, people can subscribe to Bluesky, Blacksky or Northsky labelers to hide hate speech. W Social leaders believe in "free speech absolutism" and keep saying that everyone is welcome. Alice Weidel of AfD too, by the way.
I thought W Social would be in violation of the DSA for allowing these messages to stay up, but apparently they are too small of a platform for this rule to apply.
Lately W Social leaders and power users have defined fact-based criticism as "disinformation" and targeted harassment: https://aseachange.com/@elena/statuses/01M0SDV98GRDWQNFF9VHVT9J18
I'm ok with being called a liar and a bully, if my screenshots and video captures of hate speech on the platform can help bring light to this problem.
So be warned, there may be bad news coming at the EC State of the Union in September.

Aaah, that fresh late summer mix…

mah ti dirò se avessero fatto le stesse identiche cose fatte nei successivi 3 anni ma tutte nei primi sei mesi forse quella guerra l'avremmo risolta in un anno o poco più
@zeppe è da vedere se c'era la volontà di risolverla.
A occhio e croce direi di no.
@stefano Looking forward to release day! I think I'll self host my car socials again.

Hi Stefano,
could you please add the location Sonderviq 6950 in Denmark.
Sonderviq is a beach town and tourist destination of the West Coast of Jutland, in the Ringkobing-Skjern Municipality in Denmark.
Thank you very much in advance.
@sg17843 Hello! Sure, added: https://dk.fedimeteo.com/sonderviq

As an open source dev, publishing a new project is always a source of stress.
Not because of adoption, but mainly because of feedback: things you did not see, or choices you got wrong.
That is why I often run polls, and why I change my mind when needed. Open source projects only live through you. I do not build for me, I build for us.
@apps
Telemetry will tell a dev why a feature, a button, an option is not used.
Only a question can discover why, and a question cannot receive an answer without consent.
What is a fediverse-neutral word for "subtweet"? People here use "subtoot", but that's based on Mastodon's "toot", which is no longer officially used.
"Subpost" doesn't sound quite right. But I guess that's it?

What is a subtweet/subtoot/subpost? A reply? A quote post? I honestly have no idea.
De Weesperstraat wordt smaller en de maximumsnelheid gaat van 50 naar 30 km/u. 🚦 Op delen komt 1 rijstrook per richting en ontstaat ruimte voor groen en laden en lossen. De werkzaamheden duren van 31 augustus tot 14 september. Wat vind jij belangrijk voor de nieuwe inrichting?

▶️ À nouveau un automobiliste a cherché à tuer. Depuis le meurtre de Paul Varry, AUCUNE mesure n'a été prise par le gouvernement. Il n'a que le casque à proposer : prochaine étape le gilet pare-balles ?

▶️ RAPPEL : Parmi les mesures demandées par les associations pour sortir les conducteurs violents de la route, pas une SEULE n'a été adoptée. C'est l'inaction complète face à la violence motorisée, et l'abandon des cyclistes après avoir tué le Plan Vélo national.
