The article is unclear but that’s my reading of it too. It’s obviously infeasible to sue everybody who does this (especially if you’re a public figure, it would be hundreds of lawsuits) so I think the endgame is that if the content doesn’t have a signature, we assume it’s fake.

Excellent move and a good step towards using signing keys to authenticate genuine content, something I think will become inevitable across the board.

That was such a good episode - I think the first episode during my first rewatch since it first aired when I realized this show had more of an edge than I remembered.

You really like metaphors.

I don’t get it either, beyond the Shakespeare connection (which has nothing to do with dead fish). Dos this relate to current events somehow?

Sounds pretty rapey to me.

Chad Romania vs Virgin Chad

If they do achieve decentralization in the future I’ll gladly call it decentralized, but “tangible plans” don’t warrant use of a descriptor like that. If someone is training in the hope of making their country’s Olympics team they don’t get to call themselves an Olympian. You have to have gone to the Olympics to justify that title. Working towards decentralization is the same thing. You don’t get to call yourself decentralized just because you wrote it down as a goal on your roadmap.

I don’t think that it’s accurate to say that bluesky is “completely” centralized (it is less centralized than most social media) as much as it’s de-facto centralized.

That’s like me calling myself a millionaire because I could theoretically be one at some point in the future. I am de facto not a millionaire, but I also have more than zero dollars. so I’m not completely a non-millionaire.

Also theres already another instance and relays running on a raspberry pi.

Oh yeah? I can join that second server right now and communicate with folks on the main server?

I stopped reading when the “journalist” asked this question:

How did you end up starting a decentralized social platform?

How little research must one do to credulously repeat that PR talking point for a platform that is in fact completely centralized?

Obviously left, because you can still see the list of options when you have one selected.

No cjarsons in Friuli? Come on

“France rejects backdoor mandate”? Someone enjoyed writing that headline.

That’s illegal! TSLA is not allowed to drop. Prepare for your mandatory stock purchase, citizen.

I don’t know about fitgirl specifically, I don’t actually pirate a lot of games.

Oh nice, I’ll give this a shot! I tried installing the EA app through Lutris — it worked, but I can’t install any games.

I use CachyOS on my gaming rig and it has been outstanding. The only ting that doesn’t work is the EA app.

He made one tweet

A tweet and then several posts form the official Proton account. Furthermore his comments were so obviously badly informed both about the US government and the nature of his userbase that he clearly lacks the critical thinking to run the company.

Also because no one mentioned them yet, Filen is great as a Drive replacement, and unlike Proton they have a Linux app.
