The iOS Camera icon on the left, and a placeholder icon on the right instead of the Photos icon

welp just found out i can’t access my photo library on my phone anymore 🤡 updating to the latest beta doesn’t fix it. wtf is going on with apple??

Bonjour c'est Frank Leboeuf!

While I don't entirely agree with this assessment, it's in the ballpark.

- AI is definitely a technological advancement, but the utility is often oversold

- The real danger isn't the AI itself but the human evil it enables at scale

- Regulation is necessary but ultimately will be ineffective

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU.

Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.

After seeing a few shiny PDS home pages, I've finally taken the time to make one myself!

pds.finxol.io

It was a great first experience building with atproto :)

The output is contained in a single HTML for easy deployment.
The code is on tangled for the curious tangled.org/@finxol.io/p...

that’s an instance where it looks really good! it looks good in a lot of places, but it also looks very jittery in major places (control centre, notification centre), plain bad contrast on some menus, or just weird in dark mode in a lot of places

tab menu on the Apple Home app, showing "home, "automation", "discover" in white text over very light blue background, without sufficient contrast

how is this considered sufficient contrast on an official stock app??

I'm really trying to like liquid glass, some of the effects and motion design look very cool, but it's just so ridiculously not useable rn, it still feels like an early beta

i usually have LPM on most of the time, but that makes a lot of the animations so jittery... The worst are notification and control center

How is this not bigger news in tech/security circles.

Jaguar Land Lover lost $250M (£200M) and counting thanks to a cyberattack that it still couldn’t mitigate. This is growing every week.

The cost of underinvesting in security is very real. 1+ month recovery is bonkers

i had a similar issue, it was because of system time on my pds.. The time was off by a few dozen seconds, so the jwt timestamps were off too and a lot of atproto apps wouldn’t accept it.
Fixing system time with chrony did it

glad i could help :)

Yup! I have both running side to side, neither are in host network mode.

Here’s my caddyfile tangled.org/strings/finx...

Here’s my Knot compose file tangled.org/strings/finx...

And you can find my PDS compose on here finxol.io/posts/embrac...

mostly apple music

Why in the world do they always default to opting you in??

(i know why, it’s just egregious)

you should try it, they guys who built it made it super simple 🙃

And again, please let me know if i got anything wrong in my explanations or setup :)

Embracing ATProto, part 2: Tangled Knots and social coding You thought Github was a social coding platform? Think again, and get ready to tangle! Built on atproto, tangled allows you to use your Bluesky/atproto identity on a (not quite yet) fully feldged git ...

Finally took the time to finish writing about my @tangled.sh knot setup!
Thanks again @icyphox.sh for the reactivity on the small UI bug!

The notification center is unreadable on most (lighter) backgrounds. Enabling “reduced transparency” makes it more readable again, but looks quite bad in a lot of places (app folders among others)

Please give me an unironic list of things that have gotten better over the last ten years because I’m spiraling.

I’ll start: you can buy an enormous TV from Costco for like $100 bucks now.

i see your point, it's just my european brain never knows what time "5.00 a.m. PT" actually refers to 😅
but yeah, whatever, it's not hard to figure out

they could just use the browser timezone, and still display it with the time as they do currently

Gotta love a small airport where you don’t have to hike for 7 miles to get to your gate, although airside is a bit messy

Sign that says: “ CAUTION That's quite enough technology for today”

ooo this is great! i’ll be turning that on immediately!

Worse than Docker debugging, can’t even look inside to see what files are missing or what the structure is

oh neat tool! I’ll definitely give it a try next time

Multiple commits with failing CI, only the last one passes CI: chore: does this fix ci? ci: debugging ci: more debugging ci: please work ci: now it should work right?

The joys of debugging CI 🤡
