Your mom is a social construct.

There’s a GitHub project for that: https://gist.github.com/joostrijneveld/59ab61faa21910c8434c

I think this might technically qualify as docking.

This looks like a fight trying to be picked, not something to defederate over.

There’s a lot of discussion here without any mention of Sublime Text.

Consommé?

I’d love to have been in the room when Galileo sent back its first images of Io back in the day. The collective “wtf am I looking at?” reaction would be priceless.

Where are you shopping?

I listened to the 404 Media podcast about this yesterday and the author argues that the subject of the article’s ire is intended to be the researchers themselves. Specifically, the bad ethics of testing this integration on non-consenting individuals (even though it was seemingly done with good intent).

Luckily the researchers realized what the fuck they had just made and pivoted the project to being about how to break the integration (ie: opt out of facial recognition systems and freeze your credit score).

If your analog control requires your entire hand, it’s interesting.

If your analog control requires several pointing fingers, it’s interesting.

If your analog control requires your thumbs, it’s shit.

Now get the fuck out of my office!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon

The panopticon is a design of institutional building with an inbuilt system of control, originated by the English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in the 18th century. The concept is to allow all prisoners of an institution to be observed by a single corrections officer, without the inmates knowing whether or not they are being watched.

*Although it is physically impossible for the single guard to observe all the inmates’ cells at once, the fact that the inmates cannot know when they are being watched motivates them to act as though they are all being watched at all times. They are effectively compelled to self-regulation. The architecture consists of a rotunda with an inspection house at its centre. From the centre, the manager or staff are able to watch the inmates. Bentham conceived the basic plan as being equally applicable to hospitals, schools, sanatoriums, and asylums. He devoted most of his efforts to developing a design for a panopticon prison, so the term now usually refers to that. *

Dr Steve Brule, for your shoulder health…!

Same (using element.io). I’m in several other matrix rooms, but it seems like the JS or form action on the join button is harfed.

Many thanks to Ada here for the wisdom and patience it takes to navigate these challenges. Running an instance is hard enough; throwing user politics into the mix (especially those around trans identities) makes things down right treacherous.

I’d support policies aligned with expected user behaviors and punishments for violations. Bad faith actors are going to try to burrow their way in here, and they’re going to make themselves known by testing boundaries and creeping up on the lines of what counts as unacceptable behavior. I’m comfortable with those kinds of edging-trolls being shown the door.
