@pluralistic@mamot.fr I don't know if you've covered AI voice bots being used to scam seniors (and, I assume, everybody else). I witnessed an attempt. They're nasty.

@socketwench I'm convinced were 1-3 hacks away from using RSS as the backbone for website based social networks. There's no obvious value to extract so corpos aren't working on it, but it's like, right there.

@autiomaa@mementomori.social @socketwench@masto.hackers.town The way I'm thinking about it would use browsers' parsers/rendering engines directly (with Content Security Policy/Permissions Policy style controls over allowed tags).

@ireneista@adhd.irenes.space @wakame@tech.lgbt @richpuchalsky@mastodon.social I wonder how long it takes until we start seeing trust chains designed to validate a human wrote or vetted a thing? (at least, I hope it's only a matter of time. I figure librarians would be the central authority)

(I'm using a rust crate to build the feed and it's very possible I've got something set up wrong, but it's working in NetNewsWire)

@jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net does connectivity come into the definition, or is the pipe just considered to be _some_ pipe?
