Google Chrome silences those pesky notifications | TechCrunch
The company tacitly admits that browser notifications, as designed, might have been a bad idea, saying that its own data shows users receive a high volume of notifications but rarely interact with them.

From a 2016 idea to national policy: using transparency to fix security, cut costs & boost control. Now also in Belgium — and measuring accessibility too. See how open data, cyber tokens & a few surprises at #WHY2025 make society safer (and some people nervous).

How we made the Netherlands more secure and accessible using transparency WHY2025
It started with a simple idea in 2016: make the state of security of our government transparent/public. The simple idea has become national government policy. Using transparency we've helped fix tons of security issues, reduce costs and increased control on IT. This year we've rolled out in Belgium and started measuring accessibility of websites in the same fashion. Learn how we've achieved extreme impact with a minimal budget and keep on doing so. Security and accessibility must be commodities.

Things to remember: if running your website in a container, it might be a good idea to ensure that the `restart: always` line resides somewhere in the compose file. Also, I really need to add the `dice.jamesthebard.net` website to monitoring which would've catch the issue.

I feel a while ago I saw website here where you could enter an #openstreetmap building ID and it would make a 3D render based on the 3D annotation. For the life of me I can't find the URL, does anyone have an idea?
@… I think you might have shared it at some point with the bandstand of Greenwich Park 😄

So yesterday I made a single-file website, with an encouragement for others to grab a copy and host it themselves, sort of like a digital zine. Seems like the term for this is a "netzine", although I'm not sure how much the "host a copy yourself" idea is part of that.
Since it looks like I might end up putting together a "net zines" section of my website, has anyone else produced their own that I can host copies of, or know of good ones I should include?
Boosts appreciated for reach.

Any good articles on everything bad about age verification and the lack of privacy they bring and stuff, and why it’s a bad idea to give websites your ID or let the government know every website you use?
Yes there are plenty of fedi toots talking about this but I want like a single link I can easily send people when they defend this shit.
