Print all primes less than 5000 with #Python
python3 -c 'print([i for i in range(2,5000) if all(i%j for j in range(2,int(i**0.5)+1))])'
Hahaha. Really funny…

okay so apparently this is BAD and WRONG

"It is a good feature, but even if it does offer more privacy, remember WhatsApp is not a privacy-friendly app overall," said Carisa Veliz, a professor at Oxford University and author of Privacy is Power.
"It collects much metadata about users for marketing purposes.
"We have to remember that WhatsApp is owned by Meta - one of the tech companies with the worst track records when it comes to privacy."

There will be no public username directory, and phone numbers will still be required in order to have a WhatsApp account in the first place.
BTW, if I follow you, follow back is NOT required (as I will definitely dominate up your timeline with boosts and cat posts)
Also, Hide Boosts is an option as well :3

Maybe I'm not that good at training cats to do interesting stuff, because mine have never played like this...
My studio keeps evolving. I really need to send more time here.
Wait a minute... And then you take a picture of a shitty spray bottle?! :P
@jerry How do you like that acoustic paneling? Does it help?
@heckinteagan it helps a lot with the echo given that it’s a small room with a fairly low ceiling in hard floors. It also helps because the other side of that wall has my air conditioners which are pretty loud.
@heckinteagan and it was pretty easy to install
@jerry I was considering doing some of that in my office space to help w/ echo and noise. Looks like 4x8 sheets of it are available at Menards
@heckinteagan 4x8 would be nice. Mine were 2x4
@jerry Yeah, time is precious. In a studio like this you're going to need a lot of it. Yes, send more.
Some AI pics from yesterday. #bloomscrolling
The roses and the lily came from the flower bed in my front yard. Those roses are teenie tiny, and the lily is about the size of a dinner plate.
@jerry Slop!
I really like your flower pics. I've just started playing around with photography and it's even harder than I expected to get the picture to match what's in your eyes.
@cR0w It's interesting - it's the best time to get into photography because there are so many great free resources to learn from, so much inspiration at your finger tips. It's also the worst time because memory cards, hard drives, RAM, and basically everything have gotten ridiculously expensive AND no one really cares about pictures any more because if it looks good, they call it AI slop. But at the same time, people only care about AI - either because they love to hate on it or because they are enamored by it, so I have to try to convince people my pics are really AI when they are just regular old dull "I". Else no one cares.
@jerry For me, the good part is how many people around me have done it long enough that I can pick their brains instead of trying to wade through weird forums and blogs for information. I'm also lucky that my main purpose isn't so much the art of photography, but trying to share what I get to see with other people. Luckily that is a much lower standard than the billion Internet judges.
@cR0w fair enought - I love it (obviously) for the art and trying to push myself to continuously improving at something that doesn't involve data breaches.
@jerry dude these look great!
@Viss thank you! I need to get a completely round softbox 😅
@jerry i genuinely dont remember what brand mine were. alien bees or something? its been trivially a decade tho
@Viss I don’t think I’ve seen any that were round. Maybe there are some umbrellas that are round. I should look for that. The polygon shape of my soft boxes are pretty obvious in the reflections of the water droplets
@paul_ipv6 @Viss I have some lanterns which are round. That’s not a bad idea. I will have to see how I can control the light spill but that might be the more economical approach. Thank you
@jerry @paul_ipv6 when i learned that you could just use flashlights like olight and surefire - you just need to get the white balance on the camera right - that changed a lot. suddenly i could just use a flashlight
Two things you can see here... It's pretty hot! That's why I stayed home and implemented a missing feature into snac. That's what you can also see - it finally sends push notifications to devices! In this case, we can see notifications coming from #MastoBlaster App for iPhone.
What we can also see, it's still a bit faulty and not the expected content, but a first success here at least ;) I'll make some further adjustments when there's time and get in touch with @grunfink@comam.es to check if we can get this upstream. Thanks to @stefano@bsd.cafe for testing with me :)

Added a new admirations entry point to the web UI, containing a timeline of liked, boosted and reacted posts. Please take note that, after installing the new version, it will start empty, and be filled with subsequent reactions (contributed by violette).
It's now possible to disable showing posts in a given set of languages.
Nested quoted posts are limited up to 3 levels.
New configuration knob: by setting keep_replies_posts to true in server.json, remote posts that a local user has replied to are retained in the public timeline, preventing them from being purged (contributed by hanchan).
New configuration knob: by setting keep_replied_me to true in server.json, remote replies to local posts are retained in the public timeline, preventing them from being purged (contributed by hanchan).
Ensure actors' public key PEM never includes anything after the end marker.
Fixed some memory leaks (contributed by inz).
Several additional keyId checks (many thanks to lainsoykaf for bringing this to my attention).
Fixed crash in the JSON parser (many thanks to nullenvk for bringing this to my attention).
Mastodon API: fixed lost custom emojis after edition (contributed by e0w0e).
Updated French, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Spanish translations (contributed by dragondaddy, daltux, zen).
If you find #snac useful, please consider buying grunfink a coffee or contributing via LiberaPay.
I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.93 here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/33311
GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed OK!
It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.
Thanks to violette, hanchan, inz, lainsoykaf, nullenvk, e0w0e, dragondaddy, daltux, zen and anyone else I may have missed for also contributing to the improvements in this release!

In a new privacy policy, Anthropic says Claude will soon require you to upload your driver's license or passport for a variety of reasons. The ID checker is Persona, a firm funded by Trump ally Peter Thiel. As a U.S. company, Persona is also subject to gov't demands for people's verification data. 👀
https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/22/anthropic-says-claude-may-want-to-see-your-id/
Fuck Claude. If it wants a copy of my driver's license, Pete Thiel can give me a copy of his passport and driver's license first. And fuck Pete Thiel and his puppet, JD Eyeliner.
@zackwhittaker so does this mean that everyone that works for a shitty company that requires them to use AI is now also going to have to give a third party private information or lose their job?
Hooray for the surveillance state!
No wonder Jeff Bezos signed a "strategic partnership" with Anthropic, then immediately narc'd Anthropic to the feds.

@zackwhittaker Good thing that in Europe there are very strict laws on how companies are allowed to use (or for that matter transfer to third parties) personal data of employees. 😁
as if we didn't already have way too many reasons not to use an LLM products already, requiring giving your data to someone as untrustworthy as persona is certainly another major reason to avoid this.
I don't think that's gonna go as well for them as they're hoping.
I mean, obviously, we'll see. I just suspect they're going to edge out some folks who'd otherwise sing their praises.
@zackwhittaker Makes my shift out of the technical world that much nicer. I'll just grab my bucket of popcorn and watch the fireworks. 🍿 🧨
TechCrunch reporting on privacy issues would like you to remove your ad blocker you enabled for privacy.
@badsamurai yep, I hate it too but it's above my pay grade, and I don't recommend people switch off their ad-blocker.
@zackwhittaker Looking forward to us going back to pre-internet days and moving to gopher protocol for any online community interaction. I’ll never participate in this ID verification internet especially when a US company is involved.
Did you read the policy your self ?
rather then rely on what some one else said ?
It really isn't clear what it means, and of course less clear what it will mean in the future
@zackwhittaker @vmstan if this doesn’t work I’ll just move on.
The tech bros hate to hear this but we’re at the point of commoditization for everything but the most the frontier models. And most folks don’t need ‘em.
To hell with them all
@zackwhittaker
They learned from the tobacco industri and the narcotics trade...
Make a lot of people addicted and they will do what ever you ask. Slowly turn them in to robots making their only mission in life to pleas your will.
I still have not tried Claude for software development and I have gone from "oh, I need to be part of this" into "I am proud not being part of this" in a very short period of time.
@zackwhittaker I clashed with Claude in February when they denied my access to my paid account unless I give them my mobile phone number. I terminated all subscriptions.
@zackwhittaker 🤣 they are absolutely nuts. I’ll never ever see me use their crap. Now especially not.
@zackwhittaker make a bet: "Anthropic will leak my biometric ID in..."

@zackwhittaker This is the same Peter Thiel (Palantir) company, Persona, that does identify verification for Discord and Reddit, too.
We need to get back to the UNIX philosophy of SMALL apps, because SMALL = EASY TO MAINTAIN AND KEEP ALIVE , you can have a web of apps but if they are all small its easy for someone to take over, its easy to keep them alive, or even make a new version in a new language to replace them (what RUSTACEANS are doing with terminal apps right now).
The big monolith apps ARE the [security/privacy/data ownership] problem.

What's your preferred clients for the Unix terminal (must be cross-platform, not Linux-only, for goodness, sake! 😅) and Android?
I've noticed that @tut@fosstodon.org and @pachli@mastodon.social (and other @Tusky@mastodon.social forks) don't quite like snac, and tend to act a wee bit cagey. ;)
lynx. 
However, each API client that I try fails loading custom emojis, I cannot understand why and I do not know if it is something specific with my server setup or if they have some
dealing with all SNAC instances. For Android, #Fedilab from #FDroid is what I would recommended anyway. 
Hi folks! ✌️
I've fix those troubles with the rotations' synchronization in "Battle for Burgers 🍔🍔🍔", and now the game handles it perfectly!

i upgraded my librewolf today. it suddenly crashed a minute ago, and after restarting it assumed that Chinacat.ttf Comic Sans MS is gonna be the new UI font
(NOT a fontconfig thing, all of my other applications use monospace fonts… honestly, this isn’t that bad, i just wish it was larger…)
Is Linux Mint still the best choice for people leaving Windows?
Else I will have to go back and change the distro. Luckily they already used LibreOffice for some time, so their spreadsheets and browser look the same.
@luca Coming from #Xubuntu I prefer #Debian stable these days but to be honest: almost any #Linux distro will do. I'd choose according to the community rather than the distro.
I guess you already know that you can test most distros by booting from USB thumb drive. Use that.
More important for the user is the desktop environment. KDE (with Wayland) would be my recommendation.
HTH
Toot, the Mastodon CLI client, works fine with Snac. Of course :)
