https://schlarp.com/posts/everything-i-own-owned/ Use claude, hack all your devices. "this is incredible for interoperability and fixing things that don’t work how we want them to. Hardware is almost universally “open” for tinkering at this point with just a couple hours of mostly hands-off machine-driven labor each, and I look forward to a near future where I can add features to my webcam firmware as easily as I can to software that runs on my Linux machine itself.” Next time you're bored; this might be a good inspiration for some fun hacking your own hardware. Kind of amazing that standard safaguards aren't doing more here. https://getmona.app/rich_text/764588808662

The plot thickens. I thought I found one company manipulating their online reviews with fake ratings. On closer inspection, it rather seems that the review _platform_ that they use is a partner in their practices, actively enabling orgs to suppress negative reviews. They ignore my complaints on fake reviews, even when provided with clear evidence, screenshots, everyting. What if the review platform itself is a scam? https://www.feedbackcompany.com/ Anyone with insights on how common this is? The reviews on trustpilot.com are telling ... https://nl.trustpilot.com/review/feedbackcompany.com

@zackwhittaker@mastodon.social @PwnieFan@infosec.exchange @Thorin@mastodon.social “The Apple Watch, at least with data that’s stored in the Health app, is the only popular fitness wearable that supports end-to-end encryption, and it’s enabled by default for all users” - not sure if I’m happy about this or sad about the state of this industry.

@doekman@mastodon.nl Work in progress. I’m not yet happy with the icon inserts so those are empty for now, idea is to have those be exchangeable as you configure the keys for specific functions. I’m on the fence about it doing 3D printed icons or simply printing icons; ideally in color on glossy paper.

I have this Eve cam and it must be the single least reliable device in my HomeKit setup - i can't tell you how useless it is for just doing the basics: staying connected and recording. #eve #homekit

Rotterdam Appartments heeft online een overvloed van opvallend eenzijdige, waarschijnlijk niet echte, vijfsterrenreviews. In deze Reddit-discussie wordt de situatie uitgelegd en gedocumenteerd: https://www.reddit.com/r/NetherlandsHousing/comments/1acj71e/comment/owrmlzi/ De reviewpatronen (plotselinge pieken, generieke teksten, accounts zonder historie) staan haaks op de ervaringen van verschillende klanten, waaronder de mijne. Ik wil dit netjes, effectief en juridisch verstandig aanpakken. Denk aan: melding bij het betreffende platform, eventuele melding/aangifte bij officiële meldpunten, en het voorkomen dat ik zelf tegen smaad/laster aanloop als ik er publiek over schrijf of mensen waarschuw. Welke routes en best practices raden jullie aan voor iemand in Nederland die dit soort review-fraude wil tegengaan (bewijs verzamelen, formulering van meldingen, publieke waarschuwing)? Heb jij ervaring met het aanpakken van nep/frauduleuze reviews in NL (juridisch, technisch of beleidsmatig), of goede bronnen over meldpunten en notice-and-takedown? Deel alsjeblieft je tips, voorbeelden en links in de replies, en boost deze post zodat hij ook bij juristen, consumentenorganisaties en mensen met anti-fraudervaring terechtkomt.

@axel@hsnl.social @mwichary@mastodon.online Jellyfin is super refreshing and clean by comparison. I digitised all my DVD collection and have zero interest in paid services getting intermixed…

@mwichary@mastodon.online I'm intrigued by https://www.jellytv.app/en as a replacement for Plex which seems to get more user-hostile with every update.

Good morning! #010 #rotterdam

@doekman@mastodon.nl I can of course share the SCAD files or STL once it gets to a more useable state.

@doekman@mastodon.nl Boem, valt me niets tegen!

@doekman@mastodon.nl Can you guess what i’ve been dabbling with?

@erikk@hachyderm.io @gla@mastodon.social I have 2 kids in the age bracket where they have both an iPhone and chores ...

@doekman@mastodon.nl Right now, they would drop out. I could increase the size to get a friction fit, perhaps have a little hole underneath in the frame to help push them out for changes. For now, I think holding the keyboard upside down is quite rare for me.

@doekman@mastodon.nl https://thomasdbosboom.github.io/aek-tile-studio/ is now live as a very early beta access…

@doekman@mastodon.nl Dat is een aardig idee… ik wil ook nog kijken of ik de printer een laagje in een andere kleur kan laten printen; moet ook kunnen…

@doekman@mastodon.nl Of course!

@sellathechemist@mastodon.social @bert_hubert@eupolicy.social Codex has been amazing for this: “hey, give this random Linux box on my lan some love”
