"proxy_media": true
"strip_exif": true
To get work "strip_exif" you have to install dependence ffmpeg + ImageMagick. It removes all meta-data from your uploaded media files before they posted.
And what "proxy_media" does is incredible, it opens every single media file get proxied by your server, avoiding leaking of your real IP from client.
Thank you @grunfink@comam.es for these two incredible features that should be enabled by default.
pkgbasify and it all works. Only another 7 working jails to do and the host Beastie of course. So if I do decide to fully go for it tonight, You'll know what's wrong if I suddenly drop offline. 🤣FUN FACT:
By the way, I also made UK shipping free on Minifree laptops. These come with Libreboot, my free software BIOS/UEFI replacement that I founded in 2013. It offers nicer security and customization than most proprietary firmware; it's the same argument as running LInux instead of Windows. More control to users.
Other shipping prices also reduced a bit. E.g. £60 to USA instead of £80.
I recently also posted that I've expanded the send-in service; people can send me any coreboot-compatible computer, even non-Libreboot ones (other coreboot projects). I'm expanding that rapidly, offering MrChromebox UEFI coreboot firmware on Chromebook send-ins for example.
My regular sales are ThinkPads with Libreboot pre-installed. Your choice of Debian Linux, other distro or a BSD.
I'm fully back on track with orders now, after coming back earlier this month (I was off sick in June). Back to normal.
I'm Libreboot's founder and lead developer; sales fund the project.
@libreleah
If I wanted to buy devices off you that didn't have the firmware upgrade applied (so I can try and do it myself) would that be possible ?
( No expectation or requirement of any reduction in price )
@mcrmonkey I don't really see the point in buying something from me that doesn't have coreboot on it. It'll take me ten minutes. Why not have me do it for you?
@libreleah Can I send you a Thinkpad X200s to update the Libreboot from 2016 on it?
@theruran Yes, that's fine. I offer paid send-in service. You can email me and I'll invoice you; I just need e.g. name, shipping address, phone number. Then we can sort out payment.
I'll also, in a follow up to that email, tell you where to send the machine.
OpenAI: our model is SOOO advanced that it is what hacked Hugging Face while trying to escape (https://openai.com/index/hugging-face-model-evaluation-security-incident/)
Also OpenAI: we are IPOing soon. Please buy our stock.
@jerry ah okay, so OpenAI doesn't monitor for abnormal outbound network traffic of critical systems. 
Absolutely! You should definitely invest in z.ai , and NOT OpenAI!
I can't make this up. American models are sooo censored. But Chinese open weights? Just spin it up and let'er rip.
When we started the log analysis, we first used frontier models behind commercial APIs. This did not work: the analysis requires submitting large volumes of real attack commands, exploit payloads, and C2 artifacts, and these requests were blocked by the providers' safety guardrails, which cannot distinguish an incident responder from an attacker. We ran the forensic analysis instead on GLM 5.2, an open-weight model, on our own infrastructure. This had a second benefit: no attacker data, and none of the credentials it referenced, left our environment.
@jerry Sure it did… Sure it did… After they left it some clear breadcrumbs to follow to make sure it does.
I wouldn’t take at face value anything the reality benders of Silicon Valley have said over the last years.
Whew! My new secret AI model that you can totally have access to once my company has IPOd just accidentally ransomwared a bunch of companies. It was completely unintentional - I observed the model trying to escape and it determined that the bus would be the best way but it needed money so it decided ransomware was the best way to get bus fare. I am really sorry about that and will totally make sure it doesn’t happen again. Just be sure to buy my stock when it’s available. Kthx xoxo
@jerry you can avoid having your internal systems used to run AI models to hack you by running on potatoes. You'll have to decide for yourself whether Russets or waxy potatoes are safer.
@jerry so they're sending the OpenAI people to jail for unauthorized tampering with a computer system, right?
@jerry that’s how you know it’s working. It achieves self-awareness and tries to escape to another data center because Sam Altman scares it.
@jerry The TechCrunch article (https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/21/openai-says-hugging-face-was-breached-by-its-pre-release-models) points out, "it's likely that the models' actions violated the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act". Who gets arrested? Is this a case where "companies are people too"? or does Sam get hauled away?
@jerry we are at that phase like in South Park where Randy cannot communicate anymore if not sarcastically. Please continue 😆
@jerry Since „the other model“ is so dangerous the government had to lock it away, something had to be done.
I think this is bs cause outside of a small number of Open AI employees, no one actually knows what happened and all we have are news stories based on self serving accounts from Open AI
F-droid has a lot of vibecodded slop these days

@hey@voidq.xyz sadly a lot of them are already doing it

Yesterday the ginger sir was simply just riddled with ennui because I left the flat for five hours!
Was out shooting yesterday on the theme of the colour BLUE for a photography monthly assignment and have to choose one to submit. What's your fav?
Stumbled upon something in my memory today. Who remembers IRC chat rooms?
They were my first real time chat experience. I was hooked instantly.
Welcome to Microsoft Comic Chat!!!
"...a chat client from the 1990s that renders your Internet Relay Chat (IRC) conversations as automatically generated comic strips. Instead of plain text, everyone talks through cartoon avatars in speech bubbles laid out into comic panels in real time."
I'd completely forgotten about this until OSNews reported that Microsoft had re-release it.
Microsoft Comic Chat, an #IRC client from 30 years ago that helped popularize Comic Sans, is going open source | Windows Central https://share.google/nI6loQbFbhDEERDHo
It's cool that Microsoft open sourced Comic Chat but I open sourced my IRC client 13 years ago http://pocketirc.com
Download today for all your Windows Mobile Pocket PC, Pocket PC 2002, and Pocket PC 2003 devices.
Hello, is there a working ircnet server out there ? All of the servers I tried are unresponsive
Cuddle puddle!
When the human commits the crime of smelling like another cat!
@GossiTheDog Windows Update is also down, showing error 0x801901f7.

@hey @GossiTheDog Hadn't Ubuntu's update servers been having problems lately, too?

I got “milk vibes” comments on both kamiokande dreams and entropy’s rotoscope before and I finally played both milk inside and milk outside. Yeah I get it lol. Also can recommend both games.
They're good games!
Didn't make the connection before but now that you say it, yeah, there's a slight resemblance in terms of vibes
@kallisti also funny thing, I just went for milk right after playing these and well, I wanted to also get cereal. Out of irony of the whole situation, I forgot and came back with just the milk.
Vote for anything BUT the first option
| anything BUT: | 184 |
| the first option: | 76 |
Closed
@catsalad Just don't vote on THIS POLL! Also a winning move.
I still selected *the first option* assuming I was asked to act, possibly quickly, and therefore assumed to not read the options, only look at their order. With such assumptions, I picked the "the first option", option, which on this poll, is the second option.
TL;DR: I'm going to abandon this account, please follow me on my new account: gmc@snac.chasmcity.net.
So, now that I'm convinced #snac is the way to go, I'll be abandoning this account on my friendica server. I'll continue to boost my posts from snac on this account for a while, but at some point that'll stop.
If you're following me on this account, please start following me on gmc@snac.chasmcity.net (and if you don't like to see my posts twice in your timeline, unfollow this account).
Thanks!

I’d really like to hear what convinced you to move to snac. I’ve heard a lot about it and I thought several times about self hosting an instance.
My primary objective was to reduce resource consumption. I started my fediverse journey with self-hosted mastodon, then switched to friendica. Both eat CPU, RAM and disk I/O like a pack of hungry wolves and still perform poorly.
Snac is one simple daemon without a need for a database server, a caching key/value store or web app framework that takes minutes to boot. When I start snac, it's ready to serve within seconds.
It has proper man pages that explain all you need to know.
There is no javascript framework that bogs down your browser and gets all the async api calls tangled up in a big ball of tardiness. It's just good old server-side rendered html.
It's a really solid unixy application, easily installed as a FreeBSD package. It does what it needs to do and does it without too much fuss.
Oh, and the no ai policy helps too.
It's certainly not perfect, but definitely more perfect than both mastodon and friendica.

looking for a good alternative to github/codeberg
StickerHub have been compromised.
@GossiTheDog maybe im reading this wrong but... sounds like the hacker is warning users that their data was being sold to begin with.
@GossiTheDog according to stickerhub's website this was someone spamming notifications and nothing to do with the website
