mastodon 4.7.3
  • Open on mastodon.ie

Amateur astronomy. Retro tech. Mead, perry and beer making.

Advocacy: Universal healthcare in Ireland, disability rights in the Constitution, defend the Good Friday Agreement, repeal the 27th Amendment. Reunification of Ireland as a secular republic.

That everyone can participate fully here matters, and for that reason when I repost toots that have images it will only be those with Alt text.

@riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @evan@cosocial.ca @blogpost@tagpush.app People who join smaller instances understand that their posts are public in principle, but also understand that in practice their posts won't often propagate across the entire fediverse without other humans reading them and boosting them. That's the way I like it, so if someone decides to create an artificial mechanism that alters that dynamic then it's - to say the very least - discourteous to do so using my stuff without asking if I want that to happen.

A replica Roman odometer. At the end of each Roman mile, a gear wheel releases a metal or hardwood ball into a box causing a quite loud noise. The balls in the box are counted when the desired point is reached.

RE: https://universeodon.com/@HollyCo26588808/116920465634755187 “Even though these supernova events can shine brilliantly, with typical intrinsic brightnesses that are about the equivalent of ten billion suns, that only represents a tiny amount of the energy liberated during a core-collapse event: between 0.1% and 1% of the total energy generated.” 😮 #astronomy #cosmology

@evan@cosocial.ca @riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @blogpost@tagpush.app While from one point of view (yours) a hashtag is just a hashtag and this is just using them in a creative way that the system permits, in reality they have meaning and in this case meaningful personal attributes that are not at all like #history or #linux. That's where judgement, discretion and care are exercised in curation. Your tool removes that judgement, discretion and care, and in Alice's case thereby removes their agency which is why it's upsetting.

“All societies have national biographies in which we tend to tell ourselves the best stories of ourselves, but if we really want to know what a society holds dear, you need to look at who they exile, who they imprison, who they banish, who they cast out – and what is done to those people in each instance.”

@riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @blogpost@tagpush.app ... then later Evan posted (see screenshot) that – I find this incredible – he's taking the fact that a instance/server has been set to be an open relay by it's admin as blanket permission to scrape any (possibly every) user on that server and to create accounts with similar names that replicate the user's posts, all without informing the user beforehand. I'm not that familiar with the other bots you mentioned, but this behaviour seems outside the norm.

@evan@cosocial.ca @riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @blogpost@tagpush.app Just because an instance is an open relay doesn't remove the obligation on all of us to act with discretion and care towards other users who happen to be on such an instance, and who may well not have even heard the term 'open relay'. Seeing an account pop up posting your stuff which uses your name (or is created from a very personal hashtag) is at best creepy, and for people who have been the victims of toxic behaviour on or offline could be extremely upsetting

@evan@cosocial.ca @riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @blogpost@tagpush.app @linux@tags.pub @fediverse@tags.pub @ireland@tags.pub I appreciate the distinction, but feeds on my server are created for generic topics, and are curated by a person one by one. Your tool auto-created an account based on a personal hashtag that was the same as Alice's user name and so effectively looks like a clone of their account. That freaks people out. If I create a hashtag called # liamgilmartin then my server won't create an account @ liamgilmartin.xxx and start cloning my posts.

@riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @blogpost@tagpush.app I'm never upset to be told that I've misunderstood something, we all do it and if someone didn't point it out then we'd never learn! Alice says in the OP: “Today, an unknown bot swarm started using my name, boosting my posts, and inserting itself into communities I helped create.” It's from that statement that I inferred that Alice had not followed anything that Evan had created...

@riverpunk@defcon.social @alice@lgbtqia.space @evan@cosocial.ca @blogpost@tagpush.app I think that to see stuff from the blogpost bot I would need to follow it first (which would be conscious decision by me which means consent), whereas the tags-dot-pub thing takes your stuff and pushes it in ways you don't, and without you necessarily knowing it's even happening. I'd have no problem with this if it were opt-in, but it isn't.

“The Museum of Failure.. is a celebration of innovation gone wrong. It showcases a wide range of failed products and ideas from around the world, from famous flops like the Apple Newton and Google Glass to lesser-known attempts that never made it to market. The museum emphasises that failure is not something to be feared or hidden, but rather a crucial part of creativity, experimentation, and progress.”

The accused needed the money to raise an army to invade the United States to bring that country under the rule of the British crown. A psychiatric assessment found that he is perfectly well.

Hi! This video is aimed at exactly your question, and is the first in a series of videos by Christopher Barnatt (formerly a Computer Science lecturer at the University of Nottingham).

The susbsequent videos are listed in the shownotes for this one. CB has a no-nonsense and un-showy style of delivery, and his teaching experience means he understands the need to not overwhelm the beginner.
