The usual amazing interview with Cory Doctorow:
"In this episode of Dot Social, recorded live at the Fediverse House at SXSW 2025, Doctorow unpacks the concept of “enshittification.” ... He talks about how to challenge platform monopolies and the importance of true federation."

On 14h July (though it was already the 15th here), some of my monitoring jails started throwing errors. Not all of them, though. On the same host, an Uptime Kuma instance was showing a ton of servers down, while LibreNMS wasn't displaying any issues. After investigating, I discovered why. The jail running LibreNMS was using local_unbound (integrated into FreeBSD), while the other, perhaps for speed, was using Cloudflare's DNS.

DNS is like email, the Fediverse, and other similar services: they work better and make us freer when they're decentralized.

Let's go back to decentralizing the internet. Its very existence, as we've known it, depends on it.

»Wegen KI-Schrott – Curl-Entwickler erwägt Ende der Bug-Bounty-Prämien:
Minderwertige Bug-Reports belasten Open-Source-Entwickler immer stärker. Curl-Maintainer @bagder zieht nun radikale Maßnahmen in Erwägung.«

Lasst mich raten, IT-Konzerne belasten Developer von Werkzeugen, die sie Täglich selber nutzen. Was ist daran intelligent oder gar künstlerisch?
