@maxheadroom@hub.uckermark.socialLet's hope this works. Then it would be an easy fix for the bloody IKEA Nävlinge LED Lamp that breaks too easily at the clamp.

TL; DR: Pseudoanonymised/anonymised data is bullshit.
Rule of thumb: pseudoanonymous data is just data that can be deanonymised when combined with other datasets with overlapping markers.
As…
@andres4ny@social.ridetrans.itAt this point I think a good rule of thumb is: assume any white man with a net worth of over, say, $50mil is in the epstein files unless you hear otherwise.

@stiefkind@mastodon.socialThis was one of the very first ZFS demos I've seen at some sales engineers training by Sun Microsystems Germany (Sun and Sun partner engineers), probably sometimes in 2005. Demo was to export the pool, unplug and scramble the thumb drives, plug all drives back in and import the pool. #vintagecomputing #zfs
@Techmeme@techhub.socialSanDisk's stock has surged ~1,000% since August, driven by AI demand for its data storage products; SanDisk has a cost advantage due to its JV with Kioxia (Matt Phillips/Sherwood News)

Well tomorrow will be the absolutely last resort to fix that iMac Pro, trying to install macOS from thumb drive
Internet recovery is failing, possibly because the SSD isn’t partitioned right (which is hinted at that while it boots into target disk mode I don’t see any disk when connected to it).
We shall see…

@Jyoti@mas.toI’m compiling my BEST ALBUMS OF 2025 list and I’ve put my fave track from each album on a playlist. I loved 91 albums this year.
As ever, this year has been a great year for music but dull year for chart music. Which is what happens when everything is under the thumb of only three companies.
@BBC6MusicBot@mastodonapp.uk @aral@mastodon.ar.alRule of thumb: End-to-end encryption is meaningless unless you know and control exactly who the ends are. (Let’s call this the Waltz principle.)
Same goes unless the context your encrypted messenger is running in is secure. Signal can encrypt your messages all day long but you’re still screwed if the custom keyboard app you installed on your phone is sending them off to someone else before they even reach Signal.

@david@boles.xyzMemory in the Meme
We live in an age of disposable context. We scroll through the infinite ribbon of the glass screen, pausing only for a microsecond to register a flicker of recognition before sliding our thumb upward, condemning the moment to the digital abyss. We have been trained by the Technocrats, those right-brained architects of our algorithmic prisons, to view this behavior as consumption.
@brichapman@mastodon.socialClimate realist Bill McKibben sees a turning point: despite the damage from global warming, renewable energy is surging worldwide.
China now exports more green tech than fossil fuels. Australia is racing ahead with solar and wind. The shift from extraction to clean energy is happening faster than many realize.
2026 could mark the year renewables truly dominate.
@aral@mastodon.ar.alArguing that criticism of Zionism is criticism of all Jewish people is like arguing that criticism of MAGA is criticism of all Americans.
Just like there are a large number of Americans who are MAGA, there are a large number of Jews who are Zionists but no, not all Americans are MAGA and not all Jews are Zionists (rule of thumb, if your argument starts with “All Jews are…”, it’s a fundamentally antisemitic one).
Furthermore, just like not all MAGA are Americans (hello, Nigel Far…
@outer@mas.toYou can never poke a thumb in the same eye twice.
@thomastraynor@social.linux.pizzaWhen I get asked for my photo. I would prefer having my thumb crushed and broken again than give a company photo ID or a facial picture.

@inthehands@hachyderm.ioMinneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has said a lot of the right things these last few weeks — and quite forcefully. I appreciate his tough stance!
He is, however, a person with a long history of inaction, foot-dragging, administrative bungling, and generally disappointing follow-through. He also does not appear to have Minneapolis Police under his thumb: despite being legally forbidden from assisting ICE, they’ve been clearing a wide path for them while giving them fist bumps (literally).
So: what •action• is Frey taking? What action can / should we demand of his government?

@villavelius@mastodon.onlineThey probably don't realise it (yet), but the problem American big tech companies have in Europe is that they are American. The fiscal and regulatory thumb screws ate tightening, and the flight from Microsoft, X, Facebook, LinkedIn, Amazon, etc seems to accelerate, albeit not fast enough.
@fortune@social.linux.pizzaGilbert's Discovery:
Any attempt to use the new super glues results in the two pieces
sticking to your thumb and index finger rather than to each other.
@thomastraynor@social.linux.pizzaIf a social media site asks for ID or photo to prove my age this what I plan to use. I checked and my discord account is active and they have not asked me to prove my age... yet.
@aral@mastodon.ar.alWhat Fabio said…
(If you see the antisemitic Zionist meme accounts Fabio is talking about – yes, they’re about as antisemitic as you can get as they conflate being Jewish with supporting Israel and the genocide of the Palestinian people – please report them for antisemitism. Good rule of thumb to remember: Zionism is – and always has been – antisemitic. Let’s make sure we implement a zero tolerance policy on the fediverse for genocide deniers and antisemitic Zionists.)
@cdarwin@c.imImmigration agents have put civilians’ lives at risk using more than their guns.
An agent in Houston put a teenage citizen into a chokehold,
wrapping his arm around the boy’s neck, choking him so hard that his neck had red welts hours later.
A black-masked agent in Los Angeles pressed his knee into a woman’s neck while she was handcuffed;
she then appeared to pass out.
An agent in Massachusetts jabbed his finger and thumb into the neck and arteries of a young f…
