Frage mich, wie eigentlich dezentrale Messenger wie Matrix, der zudem viel von öffentlichen Institutionen (Bundeswehr, Schulen) eingesetzt wird, dann mit dem Thema Chatkontrolle umgehen müssten.

@leitmedium Wie damals bei Email? Da wurden ja großen Providers direkt Abhörboxen in die Infra gehängt

tante,
@tante@tldr.nettime.org avatar

@leitmedium Ja, aber z.B. Matrix nutzen viele über Element und zwar nicht selbst gehosted. Kann man ja dann einfach Keys ausleiten

Lev Manovich bringing some “average Twitter user energy” to LinkedIn. I guess Lev is upset people are reading something he didn’t write. Nice to be hitting the stage of my career where Lev feels like he has to call my work boring instead of just ignoring it. :)

@CyberneticForests I'll add that last sentence of your response to my active vocabulary.

TBH: About 90% off all "open source AI models" are nothing moe than blobs. They might be what used to be called "freeware" but nothing more.

A quick glance shows that it's not that easy to determine what this model has actually been trained on and how which makes it at least a bit dubious for an open source project. Will have to dive in later

@hiiaminfi @mozilla I don't disagree, it's also good that it's on-device. Just for an "open source" project, the training data is relevant

Meredith Whittaker, Präsidentin der gemeinnützigen Signal-Stiftung, die hinter dem Messenger #Signal steht, hat angekündigt, dass Signal im Falle der Umsetzung der geplanten Chatkontrollen sich aus dem Europäischen Markt zurückziehen wird.

> »Let there be no doubt: we will leave the EU market rather than undermine our privacy guarantees. This proposal--if passed and enforced against us--would require us to make this choice. It's surveillance wine in safety bottles. To be clear--we will stay to the end. We stand with the people in Europe & their right to privacy, whatever the Commission does. But we won't comply with any mandate to undermine our privacy guarantees. And noncompliance would result in our being barred from the market.«

Das würde wohl vor allem bedeuten, dass die App nicht mehr über App Stores zur Verfügung steht und theoretisch noch manuell installiert werden kann, aber letztlich wäre es wohl das Aus von Signal in Europa. (Hatte die letzten zwei Worte ursprünglich vergessen).

@festal @leitmedium Auf jeden Fall Store. Bei Signal, die ja zentrale Infrastrukturkomponenten betreiben, ohne die nix läuft, könnte natürlich erzwungen werden, dass EU Bürger*innen/IPs geblockt werden (wo dann Sideloading egal wäre)

Another day of downtime because I forgot that updating mod_phpX.Y requires me to update to phpX.Y-sqlite3. Quickly resolved, but.

Is there a way for me to specify local-only dependency changes in apt? As in, to say "I know that out in the world mod_PHP doesn't depend on php-sqlite3 but here on this computer, for reasons it definitely is?

tante,
@tante@tldr.nettime.org avatar

@mhoye There's probably a simpler way but I built an empty package myphp that pulls in all deps in the past.

@screwtape smolnet is kinda interesting but I think it has a different dynamic than what people (especially those who "publish" a bit more) are used to and it's a bit of a challenge

Getting an "AI"-generated email from a friend "felt like a family fridge decorated with printed stock art of children’s drawings." I can very much relate to this feeling.

Inspiring talk by @tante at Re:publica 24. A quote from the Q&A session at the very end is really summing up how all the empty promises of current “innovation” feel like: “The removal of purpose is the removal of meaning”. Many startups are working towards an exit and to offload their stuff to a big company for a lot of money not to solve a problem and build something meaningful.

@Kensan @stevelord of course it was a joke. I am a Luddite, I am usually criticized for being too negative all the time.
