A privacy notice is not consent. Reading a multi-page document written by corporate lawyers just to find out how you're being tracked isn't "agreeing" to anything. It is a digital ransom note.
True consent is:
Granular: I choose exactly what you see.
Revocable: I can take it back at any time.
Opt-in: Off by default, always.
Stop confusing notifying us with asking us.

You guys! They don't like it when we say Microslop. We should totally stop being mean to them. They have never done anything to deserve being called Microslop.

I am currently self hosting a @kiwix@mastodon.social instance on my homelab. Having local, searchable copies of Wikipedia, the ArchWiki, and iFixit feels like a cheat code for digital sovereignty.
Spin up the Docker image, grab your ZIM files, and stop relying on big tech to keep the lights on for your reference data.

Pinky and the Brain - "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears for Fears
The greatest threat isn't a catastrophic system failure. It is the slow creep of apathy. When we stop demanding transparency and settle for convenience at the cost of our agency we lose the will to build better ones. The end will be a whisper of "it doesn't matter anyway."

I foresee a future where thou searchest for thy spectacles while they rest upon thy own forehead.

I am not anti-tech, I am pro-human. I want tools that amplify my voice, not replace it.
Stop being scared of being disliked by people you don't actually like.
It is exhausting burning energy trying to appease the unappeasable or fit into spaces that don't respect your values. Build your own spaces, stick to your principles, and let the rest sort itself out.

Sonnet 18 (The Laundry Day Variant)
Shall I compare thee to a laundry day?
Thou art more endless and less temperate:
Rough spins do shake the fragile seams away,
And cotton's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the dryer's breath doth glow,
And often is its linty trap obscured;
And every matching sock its mate lets go,
By chance or tumbling mechanism lured.
But thy eternal pile shall never fade,
Nor lose possession of the stains thou ow'st;
Nor shall the closet brag thou dwell'st in shade,
When in eternal hampers thou just grow'st.
So long as men can breathe and wear a shirt,
So long lives washing, and the endless dirt.
If you buy these glasses, you are part of the problem. You might not care about your own privacy, but it is an incredible violation of everyone else's privacy.
Normally, I try not to blame the customer because the real problems with most things are corporations and billionaires. But there should be no market for these and each purchase tells them to keep doing it.
Article Title: I wore Meta’s smartglasses for a month – and it left me feeling like a creep
I enjoy learning and nerding out about a lot of different technologies. However, I don't get excited about AI for the same reasons I don't care about weapons tech: I don't think it's cool to harm people.

What if I told you there is a totally open-source security key that is also a crypto-wallet and it costs about the same as some Yubikeys?
I am currently working on my review of the OneKey Classic 1S Pure.
Minor spoiler: I am enjoying my time with it, so far.

I miss the time when I bought a T-shirt and the graphic would survive more than two washes.

Giving police this much data is like leaving a fat kid alone in a candy store.They are going to use it. Officers have been arrested multiple times for using Flock systems to track ex-partners, activists, and journalists.

I joined @ReignOfRaining@transfem.social on her Linux channel to talk about why "trust me bro" isn't a valid security policy for #OpenSource software. We talk about erased histories and the hidden role of LLMs in development.

USB-C all the things!
It's been fun riding the non-systemd wave for a few weeks, but I think I might move onto CachyOS. Sometimes those out of the box kernel optimizations just call your name.
I'm thinking about (maybe this weekend?) moving this Mastodon account to being self hosted. I still need to bring back my Linkstack (it has been down since migrating my server off of proxmox).
Just stinking thinking.

I tried playing Darkwood last night. If you like horror games, I recommend it. It creeped me out.
There may or may not be a Terminal Tilt gaming channel in the works.

Yeah, RAM used to be pretty cheap.
