Just exchanged 5-7 posts with an #AI on mastodon. I wonder how many carbon credits were consumed in the process...
@LokiTheCat yup blank tariffs are not a bright strategy at all 😉
@LokiTheCat the only smart move is not to play 😁 #candlelight
@LokiTheCat it is. Only of production could move back in-country you could claim some benefits but who wants to pay american salaries for smart bulb production?
@LokiTheCat he he, that and the average consumer can not self host so has no alternative
@LokiTheCat although in a way it can hurt sales too: at a higher price, a portion of previous consumers will buy no more.
@LokiTheCat yes, we're deep into "marketing you your own air to breathe" territory these days indeed
@LokiTheCat I thought that is how tariffs work: consumer pays. Am I missing something?
The latest insult in #AI is customer support bots that pass as human persons.
There is a special place in hell for whoever thought it might be funny to do that.
Got a message from Amazon saying there's a service outage so I can't turn on my lightbulb.
The future is awesome.
@dangillmor saving that screenshot... funny today, potentially funnier tomorrow
Oh WhatsApp, you changed. Meta got the best out of you.

@arstechnica I do not know...
if I'm more shocked by this news...
or by the fact that it was only biden that introduced it
I mean, this shit has been known to cause cancer for ages now
so I've been reading Labour Together's think tank paper on BritCard proposal https://www.labourtogether.uk/all-reports/britcard - which according to Sunday Times already got the support from ministers. and considering LT is the closest think tank to gov't, I think it's fair to assume at least some of its proposals, if not all, will be pushed through
buckle up, a 🧵 incoming!

The tracking technique described at https://arstechnica.com/security/2025/06/meta-and-yandex-are-de-anonymizing-android-users-web-browsing-identifiers/ is prevented by Vanadium's default "Disabled non-proxied UDP" value. It's also prevented by "Default public interface only", which does permit peer-to-peer connections but won't try to use the loopback interface for it.
@fgntfg @tennoseremel As someone who uses XMPP as their only chat and calling medium, I beg to differ 😉
Also, people are now quitting #Telegram because of their AI bullshit. Like any #centralized platform, it was bound to abuse its users sooner or later. #Federated protocols like #XMPP are the only sensible option.
I suggest you come and rediscover XMPP. Check out some good clients and servers -

And find yourself some channels -
