The solution to #Element spamming "X changed their display name to Y" seems to be: use #fluffychat

https://fluffy.chat

FluffyChat collapses all those system messages into one expandable 🙏

Bravo #mozilla , ça marche bien la traduction automatique sans relecture... Continuez comme ça...
Évidemment que quand j'ouvre un onglet, j'ai envie de le garder fermé...

Franchement, ça part tout en quenouille...

Gardez vos nouveaux onglets fermés

Gardez vos nouveaux onglets où vous en avez besoin. Un nouveau paramètre Firefox vous permet d’ouvrir de nouveaux onglets à côté de celui qui est actif au lieu d’être relégués à la fin.

Pour essayer : Allez dans Paramètres -> Onglets et sélectionnez « “Ouvrir les liens provenant d’applications à côté de l’onglet que vous consultez » — Capture d'écran d'un mail promotionnel pour Firefox dont le texte dit : Gardez vos nouveaux onglets fermés Gardez vos nouveaux onglets où vous en avez besoin.

Et pour rester équitable, histoire d'arroser tout le monde : vous voulez installer #Element sur Fenêtres ?
Ah vous êtes sur Linux, mais pas debian ? Pardon, alors "Boules de goudron", du coup ? (À priori, c'est les tarball...). Sinon, il y a les "Communauté maintenue paquets"...

En tout cas, visiblement, c'est pas "Communauté maintenue localisation", hein...

Capture d'écran du site web element.io qui propose d'installer leur application sur "Fenêtres" (littéralement) et quand on clique sur le menu déroulant, ça propose "Windows (64 bits)" ou "Windows (ARM 64 bits)" (en anglais ce coup-ci).

I thought I was immune to Cloudflare being down but apparently I can't open Element anymore to view my Matrix channels. 🤷

What WhatsApp and Signal reveal, despite encryption

Signal is famous for good end-to-end encryption, WhatsApp is following suit. At DEFCON, two Austrians show what the messengers reveal nonetheless.

Signal no longer cooperating with Ukraine on Russian cyberthreats, official says

The encrypted messaging app Signal has stopped responding to requests from Ukrainian law enforcement regarding Russian cyberthreats, a Ukrainian official claimed, warning that the shift is aiding Moscow’s intelligence efforts.

Did you guess correctly?
The chemical element Darmstadtium, which was discovered at GSI/FAIR, is the namesake for the conference center Darmstadtium, located in our hometown Darmstadt.

Microsoft plant eine Neuerung, die euren flexiblen Arbeitsalltag verändern könnte! Ab Dezember 2025 wird Microsoft Teams mit einer Funktion ausgestattet, die automatisch erkennt, ob ihr tatsächlich im Büro oder doch gemütlich von zu Hause aus arbeitet.

Microsoft Teams kann ab Dezember Büroanwesenheit erfassen

Microsoft Teams erschwert die Anwesenheitsfiktion im Homeoffice: Mit einem Update wird die Plattform den Standort eines Mitarbeiters übers Büro-WLAN verfolgen.

Es erweckt sich der Eindruck, dass Microsoft krampfhaft versucht, Kunden loszuwerden.

Es gehören schon gehörige Scheuklappen und Sitzfleisch dazu, treuer Fan zu bleiben und das alles zu ignorieren.

Umso erstuanlicher, wenn in Bayern geplant wird, wieder 1 Mrd € dort anzulegen statt sich endlich davon zu lösen.

The EU is pushing to scan ALL private messages, even encrypted ones, endangering privacy, security, and fundamental freedoms across 450 million people.

This is mass surveillance disguised as child protection, and it breaks encryption, risks false accusations, and threatens democracy worldwide.

Everyone is now realizing that WhatsApp is evolving towards its latest form (https://archive.md/L3W74). If you value secure messaging, you may want to check out @signalapp or @matrix (wich is #federated). EPFL also has its own Matrix instance at https://matrix.epfl.ch (use @element as a client).
