Using @littlesnitch@mastodon.obdev.at I found out that so many apps send telemetry to services like Sentry. They also still connect to HTTP on port 80. Yikes.

It’s funny how us IT people used to jump on any new technology back in the day, and now all we want is to live in a cabin in the woods without internet.
Something has been bothering me lately.
Mastodon is praised for genuine human interaction, mutual respect, and the lack of engagement-driven algorithms.
Yet trending posts often still feel confrontational. People may ask for justified respect while resorting to generalizations, hostility, or contempt.
Anger at mistreatment is understandable, but respect cannot apply only to people we agree with. A healthier network also depends on how we choose to speak to one another.

Standard operating mode during the heat. We bring her in when it gets really hot to protect her. #CatsOfMastodon
Moved #tootcommunity's platform repository to a self-hosted #Forgejo installation. Planning to migrate more soon. Setting up @forgejo@floss.social has been such a breeze. Enjoyed it very much.

My wife insists I find an offline hobby because I tend to spend too much time in front of digital screens. As a result, I've been thinking about picking up #photography again.
Then again, I remember the days when I spent entire evenings in Aperture.app.
Normally my Z2 = 6:30/km @ 145bpm
Now with the heat and seasonal allergies I ran 6:30/km at average 166bpm.
I like the sun and all, but for #running I prefer the rain and the cold.
The kid has a smart Rubik’s cube. So of course dad went developing for fun.
Just taught a personal AI assistant to monitor our cats' food intake and raise an alert if it's becoming problematically low.
What a time to be alive.
In my search for a better web, I stumbled across https://orionbrowser.com/ and https://kagi.com/
Have I been living under a rock, or are these guys genuinely unknown? Their offering seems great.

To the folks running #forgejo: How are you running your runners safely?
I don’t want to run them on docker on a shared system in case some npm script breaks out, but spinning up an entire VM seems like a lot of work.
Share your experiences please 🙏

@mahryekuh@hachyderm.io I love wool. We sleep under it. Nice and toasty in the winter, and super nice in the summer.

@dusoft Yes. Platforms like GotoSocial support this. Mastodon only renders, doesn’t support writing markdown itself.
Worried about Anthropic's new "Mythos" model?
You've probably seen it go by these past weeks: it supposedly found more than 10,000 vulnerabilities on its own, in software that runs just about everywhere. So I dug in, a deep dive heading into the weekend.
Mythos (and really the whole AI trend) rewards systems that are well maintained and punishes those that aren't.
The full deep dive is here: https://jorijn.com/en/blog/claude-mythos-ai-vulnerability-discovery-explained/

@superblox@mastodon.social i just noticed snooze works across devices.

@kranzkrone@quasselkopf.de @wlaatje@social.edu.nl fully agree :)
Let me know if anything comes up.

Hah :) My website and services are listed here: https://jorijn.com/en/services/ - those are only the most obvious ones. I suppose I can host/manage just about anything, depending on the required domain knowledge. Are you looking for anything in particular?
Fun fact: I manage, own, and host the toot.community Mastodon instance too. How it runs is fully open-source, uploaded here: https://code.jorijn.com/toot.community/

@kranzkrone@quasselkopf.de @wlaatje@social.edu.nl I like owning my data, and I'm a managed hosting provider so running some more infra made sense.
Codeberg is fine, no issues there.

@jibsaram @kagihq@mastodon.social That's a very thoughtful reply, thanks for taking the time. You convinced me to give them a go.
Personally, I'm intrigued by the way they integrate AI.

@dhd6@jasette.facil.services @forgejo@floss.social I set up ephemeral VMs that work through a single job and get deleted afterwards :) might publish a blog post about it soon.
This is great news. The funded initiatives look great. Looking forward to them.

@JosKleverWebSupport@toot.re haha, ja maar jij bent natuurlijk de uitzondering op de regel hè 💪
Kubestronaut update:
CKA, CKAD, KCNA, KCSA done. I felt that KCSA was harder than anticipated, so taking a few weeks to prepare for CKS.

@jelv@mastodon.nl @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net @ecosia@mastodon.social the browser is not, only the search engine.
which one do you use?
To my followers:
I'm curious, so please vote to reflect your opinion.
I'm currently using a separate account (@website@social.jorijn.com) to post new blog articles to Mastodon.
I'm considering posting from this account instead, simpler and better reach.

@kev doesn’t have to be a big bang. I’ve been making new repositories on Forgejo, instead of migrating everything.

@jibsaram Thanks for sharing. Any thoughts about the Yandex thing? It seems to flare up here and there.

@FRYTG@beoriginal.social @mijndert@toot.community love this combo. Wearing a whoop and a mechanical watch myself. Is there a whoop fediverse team already?
For the people with a #Whoop, I just made a team where we can cheer each other on.

The entire toot.community instance runs on Cloudflare tunnels. Rock solid. Highly recommend.

My @ivory@tapbots.social subscription expired. What are people using these days for mobile Mastodon?
Had to call MediaMarkt to request an invoice. The call was accepted by a voice AI agent.
Sigh.

@FRYTG@beoriginal.social Hermes is great. It's automating various boring parts of my life. It's doing the legwork in my SME accounting software, keeps track of cat health using smart feeders, and backs up all my WHOOP data.
It's connected to numerous APIs and offers an easy gateway connecting everything. It also reads my mail and saves every attachment into a specific location in my Nextcloud install.
But yes, it's for technical people only right now.
