   I tried this with both Lynx and Links, and they both work just as well.

   So new lifte hack: You can probably read any paywalled article with a text-based browser,l probably because they don't do scripts at all.

   I’m told that sometimes Claude can be frustrating. I gather that interacting with it can be quite rewarding, especially when it creates passing tests in your programmes. But sometimes that dopamine rush is not quite enough. Maybe you need a bit of stroking of your ego, or a good pat on the butt when you’ve done well.

   So now, someone has now taken Vibe Coding to tbe logical conclusion, and has created an interface from Claude to buttplug.io.

   So now the shafting you get from AI is no longer just figurative.

   @marleenstikker Hey Marleen, long time no speak, hope you’ve been keeping well.

   So, let’s cut to the chase:

   If Mastodon GmbH and mastodon.social went away today would Mastodon and the fediverse still exist tomorrow?

   Yes.

   If Bluesky Social, PBC and bsky.app went away today would the “Atmosphere” still exist tomorrow?

   No.

   I really don’t understand what’s so hard to grasp about the diametrically opposed goals of a VC-funded entity that controls a technology and decentralisation.

   We’re still looking at wolves marketing homes for sheep and thinking “sounds like a nice, safe neighbourhood.” It’s simply not good enough. How is it 2026 and we’re still giving these people every tbenefit of the doubt?

   #WritersCoffeeClub 14/3 Do you think readers want new experiences in structure or narrative, or do they prefer what's familiar?

   I will admit to becoming quite disillusioned. My books are different than the run-of-the-mill stuff, and they do NOT sell well.

   So I'm going to assume that the majority of readers prefer reading something that's familiar. In German, we say "same thing in green".

   I prefer writing something a little different, but that will always be hard to market.

   @soatok I think you are missing part of the problem when it comes to email. Lots of moving parts and the need to get every one on bored. SMIMP like lots of other ideas when it comes to email(even ones not related to privacy in the lease) are basically DOA as the person proposing them suggests something and then meanders on off.

   Getting something to work requires lots of support at all levels of the stack.

   It is not a question of political will, but available dev time. Sure, you can write a system and tell the major ones to fuck on off and refuse to talk to them, but the big thing is finding enough dev time to all the fixes across the entire stack, which is not likely to happen sadly.

   Also telling major providers to fuck off unless they are willing to play ball is not exactly with out presidence as well.

   So would not exactly say a political problem, but one of dev time.

   And frankly not one that is fixable as it requires a team that has a damn good understanding of C, C++, Perl, and PHP to even begin making a small dent and inroads.

   And not once has any one ever said "Hey, lets fix this."... it is usually "Hey ass holes I have an idea and you should implement it while I fuck off".

   @GrapheneOS @PaintedDurian We specifically mentioned GrapheneOS because we believe it's a great project, some of our developers use GrapheneOS as well.

   So we believe, this is a misunderstanding, and we'd like to understand and fix it.
