Signal needs a phone number. Why are we dismissing this as privacy versus anonymity when governments are blocking the registration SMS?
I really don’t get why so many people are turning this into a privacy versus anonymity debate when the real problem is censorship.
Yes, Signal needs a phone number to sign up, but replacing that with an email or username doesn’t make it anonymous. The real issue is that governments are blocking the registration SMS, so people can’t even sign up for the app in the first place.
Sure, there are workarounds, but most people aren’t going to jump through all those extra hoops just to use an app. If we want to spread privacy, how do we do that when Signal's phone number requirement is actively working against us?
Instead of arguing over privacy versus anonymity, shouldn’t we focus on making sure everyone can access Signal without issues? What do you think?
SimpleX is promising, but seems very new.
Telegram is better than Signal on many angles, but has other problems.
I don't think there is a perfect app yet. But Signal's aggressive marketing is security-theater, not real security.

A suspect has been apprehended, and a shelter-in-place order was issued for the campus, as confirmed by UVU campus police and a UVU alert sent to students.
Witnesses reported seeing blood after the shooting, and Kirk was rushed to a local hospital.
U.S. Senator Mike Lee stated he is closely monitoring the situation and called for prayers for Kirk and the attendees.

TIL Maegul coined the term 'threadiverse' June 5th 2023
Seeing some push back here on the idea of confusing things with more terms than just "fediverse". I get that. The problem is that that cat is very much out of the bag. Surely, for the vast majority of people that have any awareness of the fediverse, they think it's just Mastodon.Either way, "Mastodon" is a much larger "brand" than "fediverse" or anything else on the fediverse. So trying to get some conceptual branding going makes sense. It make things more clear, as the idea of the fediverse itself is kinda fuzzy and complex and probably best left out at the beginning. It's a little bit like the matrix, you have to see it with your own eyes, IMO.
So, my lame contribution ...
****Threadiverse!**: "Social media, but woven into threads, like Reddit or Forums, not like the chaos of Twitter, but all on the Fediverse so you can find anyone else doing anything else too."
I think there is a fundamental division between services for following people and services for participating in groups.
You are right that some of it is a UI consideration, but not all of it.

On your phone in particular. I have all turned off except for signal messages from a few people.
Side question: Have you or anyone you've known "rang the bell" on content on youtube, twitch, etc? For how many channels? What (kind of dystopian nightmare) was that like?
- Messages from friends, partner and family.
- Emails about package arrivals.
- Servers going down.

Is Signal messaging really private?
As Signal get your phone number. Can we considerate this application as private ?
What's your thoughts about it ?
I'm also using SimpleX, ElementX, Threema, but not much people using it...

Signal is secure, not fully private or anonymous.
Why do people think this secure vs private distinction is in any way meaningful. I don't want a US service to have my phone number, or spy on me, and have social network graphs, period.
Why is the US government being able to spy on me considered "secure"?

Feed rss per X e Instagram
Buongiorno, non so se sia il posto giusto per questo topic, non ne ho trovati di più pertinenti, in caso spostatemi pure.
Mi chiedevo se esista un modo per seguire profili X e Instagram tramite lettori feed rss o altro. Spulciando su Le alternative ho scaricato Newsblur, non mi permette di seguire i profili che mi interessano, ma vedo che ce ne sono altri suggeriti che invece possono essere seguiti (solo per X).
Magari esiste un generatore specifico da applicare..
Purtroppo le fonti principali di notizie che seguo sono profili di giornalisti Instagram o X, ogni consiglio per smarcarsi da queste piattaforme (gratis) è ben accetto. Grazie in anticipo per la pazienza.
ho trovato anche questo ma non so se funziona ancora.

Come fare per ascoltare bene da computer un CD 'protetto'?
Vi ricordate quando nei primi anni 2000 i CD musicali erano fatti in modo che se provavi ad ascoltarli in un computer si sentivano male?
Lo facevano per scoraggiare le copie, fare gli mp3, ecc.
Ma oggi questa cosa si può aggirare?
Ad esempio, di recente ho messo le mani su Meteora dei Linkin Park (sì, sono un romantico collezionista) e con mia sorpresa, quando lo metto nel pc si sente in quel modo. Sia Linux che Windows.
Mi direte che posso semplicemente ascoltarlo nella radio, e infatti è ciò che faccio di solito, ma mi ha comunque stupito.
Oggigiorno esiste un modo per far leggere bene dal pc un CD di questo tipo?

L'UE vuole leggere i tuoi messaggi privati
Il 14 ottobre 2025 potrebbe essere approvata una legge che obbliga WhatsApp, Telegram e tutte le app di messaggistica a scansionare automaticamente ogni tuo messaggio e foto.
Cosa cambia:
• Ogni tua conversazione privata sarà controllata da algoritmi
• Per usare chat ed email dovrai identificarti (addio anonimato)
• Foto di famiglia in vacanza potrebbero essere segnalate come "sospette"
• I tuoi dati finiranno in database internazionali
Il problema:
Questa sorveglianza di massa non protegge davvero i bambini, ma distrugge la privacy di tutti noi. I veri criminali useranno altri sistemi, mentre cittadini innocenti saranno spiati costantemente.
Cosa puoi fare:
Scrivi ai nostri europarlamentari tramite il link in questo post

La comunicazione privata è un diritto fondamentale. Non dovremmo rinunciarvi per una legge che secondo gli esperti è inefficace e pericolosa.

Of the largest android sellers, only samsung requires gplay. Xiaomi, vivo, oppo, realme, honor, are all chinese companies that require non-bundled google play for their domestic (and maybe other countries?) releases. Google can't alienate these sellers, and if they did, all of these companies would create their own AOSP fork (or just switch to HarmonyOS)
I recently bought a xiaomi android tablet that doesn't have google play services luckily.

Venghino siori: Microsoft aumenta il montepremi di Zero Day Quest a 5 milioni di dollari
Microsoft offrirà premi fino a 5 milioni di dollari in premi per il concorso di hacking Zero Day Quest di quest'anno, che l'azienda descrive come "il più grande evento di hacking della storia".
Anche la Zero Day Quest dello scorso anno ha generato una partecipazione significativa da parte della comunità della sicurezza , in seguito all'offerta di Microsoft di 4 milioni di dollari in premi per vulnerabilità nei prodotti e nelle piattaforme cloud e di intelligenza artificiale. Dopo la conclusione della gara di hacking di novembre, Microsoft ha annunciato di aver pagato 1,6 milioni di dollari , avendo ricevuto oltre 600 segnalazioni di vulnerabilità.
Per la competizione di quest'anno, Redmond ha aumentato il montepremi a 5 milioni di dollari, concentrandosi sulla risoluzione dei problemi di sicurezza nel cloud computing e nell'intelligenza artificiale.

Dei ladri-hacker piazzano un Raspberry Pi 4G sulla rete bancaria durante un furto fallito allo sportello bancomat. MrRobot vive :-)
Il gruppo di hacker UNC2891, noto anche come LightBasin, ha utilizzato un Raspberry Pi dotato di tecnologia 4G nascosto nella rete di una banca per aggirare le difese di sicurezza in un attacco appena scoperto.
Il computer monoscheda era fisicamente collegato allo switch di rete del bancomat, creando un canale invisibile nella rete interna della banca, consentendo agli aggressori di muoversi lateralmente e dispiegare backdoor.
Secondo Group-IB , che ha scoperto l'intrusione mentre indagava su attività sospette sulla rete, l'obiettivo dell'attacco era falsificare l'autorizzazione degli sportelli bancomat ed eseguire prelievi fraudolenti di denaro contante.
Final thoughts re: FediCon 2025
As I write this, I'm sitting on an airplane flying over the Canadian prairies on my way home from Vancouver, BC.
What an amazing group of individuals, who took the time out of their extraordinarily busy lives to see, hear, and learn about the fediverse! The connections made and ideas discussed were so important, and you could feel the energy in the air.
You'd think after a solid six hours a day in a lecture hall would be enough, but at every opportunity in between, there were lively discussions about ActivityPub and the fediverse. It turns out when you get all of us in a group together we can talk and continue to talk about the open social web for ages.
I now have a to-do list about a kilometer long, they all need to get done ASAP!
Thank you to reiver@mastodon.social for organizing this conference, all of those who helped out and participated, and all those who attended.
From now on, whenever someone points a camera to me, I'll picture jaz@toot.wales saying "say FEEEEEEDIVERSE".

File FLAC: li usate? che programma usate per farli?
Discussione "accessoria" al discorso musicale propriamente detto.
Da qualche tempo, più per pacioccare che altro, ho provato un paio di programmi per generare dei FLAC dai miei fidati CD.
Specifico che preferisco sempre e comunque ascoltare i CD quando posso, a casa; in auto ho gli MP3 sul telefono.
Voi usate i FLAC?
I due programmi sono:
- Exact Audio Copy (exactaudiocopy.de/)
- foobar2000 (foobar2000.org/)
(sono su Windows)
Ho provato a fare il FLAC di una medesima traccia CD, ma sono venuti file di dimensioni diverse, dovute ai kbps, nonostante mi sembri di aver dato le stesse impostazioni ad entrambi.
Tra l'altro, se lo usate occhio che la versione attuale di EAC non ha l'ultima versione del codificatore (xiph.org/flac/download.html), ho provato a metterla io manualmente nella cartella e funziona normalmente.

If it gets copied over as I think it will then I will keep the format.

WordPress on FreeBSD with BastilleBSD: A Secure Alternative to Linux/Docker
Gary’s Videos: A Relatable Journey of Discovery (and Frustration!)
Every time a new video from Gary – @garyhtech – comes out, regardless of the topic (which is mainly about BSDs, but not only), I already know I’ll have to take the time to watch it. The reason is very simple: his videos are fantastic. He records himself and comments while doing things, and in many situations, it feels like I’m watching myself. I tackle something new, and it doesn’t work, or I realize I’ve made a mistake and start reprimanding myself. Gary does all this on camera. Sometimes he succeeds, sometimes he doesn’t, but that’s not what matters… what really matters is the process and how he approaches it.
The latest video, published yesterday, is “FreeBSD User tries NetBSD! Is it much Different?”. And, in my opinion, it’s worth watching just for the title alone.

And WP plugin code is an orgy of stupid.
The worst code I read in a day is a WordPress plugin. Guaranteed.
While I do maintain Linux servers at work, I don’t maintain their Wordpress instance. I am however *using* it: I am part of a team which sometimes posts internal messages to a corporate-internal Wordpress blog which employees rely on to keep track of certain important events.
I totally agree about the plugins. In fact, we installed a plugin which itself is a plugin maintenance tool, a way to notify ourselves whether plugin X or Y have vulnerabilities, basically.

Well, it did propel further the withdrawal of US from Vietnam. It further de-legitimised US involvement in Vietnam by the public.

Well, it did propel further the withdrawal of US from Vietnam.
The Vietnamese people themselves did that. The US anti-war protest movement was a great thing, but the Vietnamese people defeated the US empire through their own efforts.
we must not tolerate it (anti-zionism) in our nation
The context for this was a pro-palestine protest in washington dc, with kamala supporting the police action to break it up.
This is awful mod behaviour...
I used to see this on Reddit, I'm disappointed this behaviour is also on Lemmy.
Users collecting mod status on multiple communities, and then using that power to mass-ban a single user from a bunch of communities.
Modlog show how incredibly trigger happy some mods can be. Minor transgressions, deserving to have their comment removed at least, but then banned from unrelated communities as a consequence. This will only get worse as users become supermods.
That person was banned for anti-semitism and various other trolling: lemmy.ml/modlog?userId=1775826… . And banning from each community is the current hack for how to also do instance bans(fixed already in main)
Creating public modlogs was almost pointless, because people just use screenshots instead of actual modlog links.
I just learnt this in another comment. I didn't realise instance bans were reported like this.
Re: screenshots -- this community rules require censored screenshots.
If we take most reliable estimates of the casualties than happened in the june 4th incident, ~200, then US cops kill more than that in 2 months.
Or if you want a single internal incident, during the Waco siege the US burned alive ~90 people, many women and children included.

Nel tuo luogo di lavoro non c'è rappresentanza sindacale? Sai come attivarla?
Non sai qual è la differenza tra RSA e RSU?
Lo sapevi che hai diritto a ore retribuite per fare assemblea sindacale?
Il 12 giugno dalle ore 19 alla Casa del Parco in Caffarella si terrà il primo appuntamento formativo organizzato da Tech Workers Coalition (TWC) Roma, sezione cittadina dell'organizzazione internazionale alt-labour che si propone di migliorare le condizioni delle lavoratrici e dei lavoratori del settore tecnologico.
Siamo programmatori, ingegneri, sistemisti, grafici, copywriter, analisti software. Insieme possiamo cambiare il modo in cui (non) funziona l'industria tecnologica. Abbiamo questioni importanti da affrontare come body rental e partite Iva, smart working e orari di lavoro, adeguamenti all'inflazione e gender pay gap, ruolo delle Rsu e Rsa, diritto alla disconnessione e reperibilità, rinnovi contrattuali nazionali (Ccnl) e aziendali, vertenze in corso, presidi e scioperi.
Lavoriamo tutti i giorni con la tecnologia, possiamo quindi anche utilizzarla per coordinarci e organizzarci. L'appuntamento di formazione sindacale sarà un'occasione per conoscerci, parlare dei problemi e acquisire competenze sui nostri diritti per migliorare la nostra condizione lavorativa.
Ci vediamo il 12 giugno dalle ore 19 alla Casa del Parco in Caffarella!

Why use `Room` and not `DataStore`?
I'm new to Android dev, and I recently added my first contribution to ThumbKey (the Key Modifications feature).
I noticed that ThumbKey saves user settings using a Room database rather than using DataStore, or its outdated equivalent SharedPreferences.
Why is that? What's the advantage?

Because various people have asked for it, I’ve mirrored all the GitLab Bookface and Postbox repositories to GitHub:

The canonical location is still on GitLab, that's where I'll still be making the actual commits. The Bookface wiki is also still on GitLab (it apparently doesn't get included when mirroring to GitHub). And the actual Releases are still on GitLab because GitHub apparently only mirrors the version tags.

Recommendations for Nonfiction books on Communist China
Hello!
May I please have some book recommendations on Communist China? I am interested in learning about the origins of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). I would like to understand the events leading up to the formation of the PRC, the rise of the CCP, and the development of Communist China. I am particularly interested in learning about key figures such as Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao, Liu Shaoqi, Deng Xiaoping, and Xi Jinping, as well as other prominent leaders.
For a longer history, I highly recommend CGTN's historic journey video series. It's a 20 or so part series (10 hours in all) that was created to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the CPC. It spans the entire history of modern China to the present day, and touches on all the lessons learned. It's very watchable and you'll go through all the important figures, periods, and struggles.
This one isn't history but is a must read: Roland Boer's socialism with chinese characteristics, a guide for foreigners.
An extremely advanced but thorough book (i'm about 70% done with it), is Jin Huiming's - Marxism and Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
I haven't read these yet, but Edgar Snow's red star over china, and anna louise strong's the rise of the chinese people's communes document different periods while they were happening, and have interviews with many of the leaders above.
Also good to read their source material, including the quotation of Mao Zedong, and Deng Xiaoping's selected works. These are both remarkably readable and insightful.

This is an amazing initiative!! 🌍
The small problem with OpenStreetMap IDs is that they're not stable. This can happen for example:
- a node/way keeps its id but gets moved around, or
- a new node/way gets created with a new id but it really describes the same previously deleted object
There are various systems to come up with stable IDs all with their own pros and cons but no good one-fits-all solution.
Maybe fine for a prototype for now but we need to keep this in mind.

How has learning a language as an adult helped you to learn about a culture / gain new perspective?
I personally feel like I understand German-speaking people better the more I study the language.

Re: FEP 7888 serving up an OrderedCollection
@jesseplusplus@mastodon.social @pfefferle@mastodon.social I fixed up NodeBB's janky handling of collections and now I am able to import an entire Frequency conversation via its context :tada:
I think @silverpill@mitra.social is right though, your context.first needs an id. I worked around it but it's better to have it so it can be referenced against by another page's prev.
Re: FEP 7888 serving up an OrderedCollection
@silverpill@mitra.social said in FEP 7888 serving up an OrderedCollection:
> Do you mean replies made by the context owner specifically?
Correct, or more specifically, at least for all replies coming from the instance that the context owner belongs to... so other sibling replies by users on that instance should also report that same context.

the context SHOULD be copied if you want to participate in the same context, but the owner MAY Add whatever they want to an arbitrary Collection
context-unaware impls aren't prevented from participating but this will lead to a degraded experience if you're not careful. likely you would start with some graph source, filter for context, then optionally crawl replies for anything missing or otherwise optionally reverse query inReplyTo
yes, but they serve objects because we're radical implementors who don't do the whole activities thing 😝 sorry in advance.
What if only the activity is signed (as is often the case) and the object is not fetchable due to let's say some network error?
julian:
individual objects serve acontextproperty thatcontextproperty is a URL that resolvesOne of the concerns raised was related to the OrderedCollection of items served by the
context. Specifically, if the items presented in the collection were not in chronological order, NodeBB failed at importing some of the items as theinReplyToreferenced an object that did not exist.The solution to this was to ensure that the collection items were in chronological order from oldest to newest. Once fixed:

I find it hilarious that the comment replies on this forbes.com article, are way farther left and more aware of the US's hypocrisies than the average liberal lemmy server commenters.
The article was also just the standard orientalist "our open transparent freedom-loving democracy" vs "their authoritarian 1984 surveillance regime", with an emphasis on "protecting our youths from the evil commies". Not a shred of self reflection after the US just committed the thing they're accusing China of doing.
