Jdreben,

Does this mean Tutanota is compromised?

Jdreben,

“On 11 November 2023, it was alleged Tuta was being used as a honeypot for criminals with a backdoor from authorities. An ex-RCMP officer, Cameron Ortis, testified that the service was used as a storefront to lure criminals in and gain information on those who fell for it. He stated authorities were monitoring the whole service, feeding it to Five Eyes, which would disperse it back to the RCMP in order to gain more knowledge about the criminal underground. Though, no evidence is ever presented to back up this statement.”

Jdreben,

Thanks for doing this. Love this community.

Jdreben,

This is cool! Thanks for sharing

Jdreben,

Beautiful video. Evolution is remarkable. Like all good videos on science it makes me want to know more.

Lot of words I will not remember but what I will remember enough to google is that it is microscopic assortment and “hollowness” that selectively filters wavelengths to produce reflection that enables these beautiful “structural” rather than I guess pigment-based, blues.

Quote I found by googling, trust the source more than the quote — “Structural colors are created by the physical form, or structure, of some plants, animals, and minerals. For example, the Blue Morpho butterfly’s wings have microscopic scales with tiny grooves in them; the grooves amplify blue color reflection, while canceling out every other color.” naturalhistory.si.edu/…/what-makes-things-blue#:~….

So in my own paraphrased and cobbled together words, structural color is different from pigment. Pigment is based primarily on the absorption of light and reflection back of some of it, while structural color is based purely on the reflection of light by microscopic structures somehow arranged to wavelengths of light.

Science is insane. Truly a remarkable world.

Jdreben,

Wow! So blue and green eyes are structural too? That’s amazing.

Jdreben,

Bear sex. Not what I would expect from this game but I haven’t played any in the series. It does make me want to play it just to see how this fits into the story tbh. Good marketing.

Jdreben,

Amazing. Love those kinds of side quests. Reminds me of Mass Effect.

Jdreben,

Interesting. Maybe at the beginning, when I first used it it felt not as good. But now it feels as snappy to me as Apollo ever was. vger.app I mean FKA Wefwef

Jdreben,

Very good article imo. I didn’t disagree with anything. I especially agree with the ugliness of the many class names in my html.

My problem I guess is reconciling how much of a pleasure it’s been to use. Perhaps I, a primarily backend developer historically, embody the death of web craftsmanship, but I don’t really want to learn modern CSS if I don’t have to 😅

The easier I can get something styled and back to doing actual business logic rather than making things pretty the happier I am. I highly respect frontend styling gurus but I’m not that interested in spending time mastering true web craftsmanship, I care more about delivering the product as fast and as beautifully to the user as possible.

Jdreben,

Thank you for this response. Indeed I will. And feel excited to do so :) Look forward to that blog post as well.

Jdreben,

I agree with you personally, but it’s the second most used platform after Facebook I think so it does have an insanely massive userbase.

Jdreben,

It does everything Mastodon does but more, honestly. I use both, and definitely prefer Firefish. But I’m a developer so a lot of things about Mastodon really bothered me. The core difference is Firefish fka Calckey is being developed much faster and with a more modern stack. The click to play MFM feature was developed in a few days when the community was concerned about potential seizures due to unasked for auto playing or animated text.

A few key features: QT & Full text search (search I don’t use except for specific posts so can’t speak to that) MFM & cat mode (these are just fun, Misskey flavored markdown has things like tada and sparkle and rainbow. People make art with it)

Jdreben,

Probably more important are features such as channels and pages which are more like Facebook or MySpace. People have compared it to Tumblr because you can completely customize the interface. I hope it intros some more people to programming

Jdreben,

Here’s a page with some features firefish.social/

Jdreben,

What are you talking about? Trending isn’t even working right now… sources please.

Jdreben,

Woah. Well this is terrifying

Jdreben,

Imo more people would use them if they were called something clearer. Saved search. Custom timeline or feed. Something like that. But yeah they are awesome

Jdreben,

Huh interesting. I immediately had a positive reaction to the name because of this. Love Firefox. already loved Calckey err I mean Firefish though so I suppose I am not objective.

It really conveys the open and user control centric nature of the project. An homage to the fox. You have now not just the fox but the fish with which you can tame the raging fires of the web. Fish makes more sense than fox too cause the web is like an ocean. Idk just thoughts

Jdreben,

Yes. It completely took over my home timeline doing this.

We desperately need more fine grained control.

Are there any Lemmy / Kbin interfaces or settings I’m not seeing to mute keywords in titles or post bodies like in Mastodon or Calckey?

Tired of seeing posts about Threads, for example. I would appreciate being able to apply a soft (show that post exists but collapsed and with warning) or hard mute (don’t display the post) of posts with that keyword (in title or body)....

Jdreben,

Omg of course! I have Mlem set up. And indeed it does have filters in the settings.

I guess I’ve been using the web app and Wefwef PWA more than Mlem but this is probably reason enough for me to use it over others - until they hopefully build it in too!

Thank you.

Edit: Looks like it’s a hard filter only – fine by me.

Jdreben,

Whoops didn’t mean to delete my post - was editing and accidentally deleted.

Thank you! I have Mlem and indeed there are filters in the settings.

Jdreben,

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.

Jade Empire.

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy.

Sid Meier’s Pirates.

Jdreben,

Have you played Eastward? Unless I’m mistaken Earthbound is part of the game and plot. If you like Earthbound you might like Eastward. I enjoyed it even having never played Earthbound but I’m sure I missed a lot of references / analogies.

Jdreben,

Begun the ad wars have

Jdreben,

Yeehaw Beehaw!
