  • Why is there never any more detail how the GDID is then used to collect information?

    The complaint says Microsoft had records showing that on May 12, 2025, at 19:21 UTC, the GDID associated with Stokes’ computer “accessed, among other ngrok pages, 'https//dashboard.]ngrok.com/signup,' the ngrok page to set up an ngrok account.”

    How do the records show a GDID in connection to the website?

  • OnlyOffice removes Android repo and makes claims against EuroOffice

    Jump

  • Regarding OnlyOffice‘s legal claims, this is the response by the FSF, which is the copyright holder to the GPL licenses . It is their opinion, that these specific license additions by OnlyOffice are not legal.

    […] In the main repository of the OnlyOffice DocumentServer, we have found that the README file (and similar README files located in other OnlyOffice repositories) clearly state that the software is made available under the AGPLv3 in the "License" section. However, OnlyOffice then includes additional terms in the LICENSE file (and in some other LICENSE files in other repositories), as well as in license notices of individual source files. In utils.js, for example, it states: "Pursuant to Section 7(b) of the License you must retain the original Product logo when distributing the program." This obligation to "retain the original Product logo" is not included in Sec. 7(b) of the (A)GPLv3, nor in any other parts, as an (A)GPL-compliant additional term, and is therefore considered a further restriction of the (A)GPLv3. 

    The (A)GPLv3 makes it clear that it permits all licensees to remove any additional terms that are "further restrictions" under the (A)GPLv3. It states, "i]f the Program as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term."

  • Two cohort studies and 16 case-control studies on this topic were identified […] The cohort study was of limited value due to methodological shortcomings in the study.

    Thats basically no evidence at all. Case control studies are mostly used to see if there might be some correlation and from that to form a hypothesis for further research.

  • Bazzite would shut down if Fedora goes ahead with removing 32-bit

    Jump

  • Yep, the problems that require more than the steam flatpak can deliver would of course still be there. But you wouldn’t suddenly be on a depreciated distro without a path forward. Thats what I meant by not totally screwed.

  • Bazzite would shut down if Fedora goes ahead with removing 32-bit

  • Even if this were to happen, you could easily rebase to Aurora (KDE version of Bluefin) or Fedora Kinoite. You wouldn’t be totally screwed.

    Germany Is Using AI to Erase Pro-Palestinian Speech

    Jump

  • Oh come on, just accept that the wording of the headline is wrong and misleading.

    If a Country is named in the headline like this, it is always implied to be the state/government. No other interpretation makes sense, the society is surely not using ai to censor.

    Even if we consider that not to be the case, just for the sake of the argument, you still can not say "a few people at this project" = "Germany (Society)". I heavily caution you to not go down the generalization route of "a select group" = "german society". You ought to think about what that assertion would mean in the context of hamas and palastinians.

    Also TU is a public university, so it's still an emanation of the state, state-funded and state-controlled.

    While universities get funding from the state, they are mostly free to research what they choose. On the projects website is also no sign of direct funding by the state. You are free to criticize the research, but what you are implying is that the state should censor the direction of research because you don‘t like it, which is quite ironic.

    Germany Is Using AI to Erase Pro-Palestinian Speech

    Jump

  • This is a clickbait headline. The headline implies that the German State is using AI to censor. It is not! While there might be a lot to criticize the German State/Goverment for, this is not it.

    It is a different actor developing a model, not the state. One can rightly criticize that, but that is definitely protected under scientific freedom.

    […] the Decoding Antisemitism project at the Center for Research on Antisemitism at the Technical University Berlin […]. With the help of a large language computing model, the project aims to create “an [AI] algorithm that will automatically recognize antisemitic statements in web comments . . . so that antisemitic posts can be removed more efficiently and accurately” by online platforms.

  • German court sends Volkswagen execs to prison over Dieselgate scandal

    Jump

  • Most people don’t know that it wasn’t just VW. Sadly I don‘t think you will find any moral acting car manufacturer out there.

    Automakers who have been caught using a defeat device within a diesel vehicle, in a similar manner to Volkswagen include: Jeep and Ram under FCA[391] (now a part of Stellantis), Opel[392] (when under GM), and Mercedes-Benz.[393]

    While not all using defeat devices, diesel vehicles built by a wide range of carmakers, including Volvo, Renault, Mercedes, Jeep, Hyundai, Citroen, BMW, Mazda, Fiat, Ford and Peugeot[48][49] had independent tests carried out by ADAC that proved that, under normal driving conditions, many diesel vehicles exceeded legal European emission limits for nitrogen oxide (NOx), some by more than 10 times, and one by 14 times.[49]

    Beyond exclusively diesel or passenger vehicles, automakers such as: Hino[414] (subsidiary of Toyota), Hyundai and Kia,[415] Nissan,[416] Mazda, Yamaha Motors, Suzuki,[417] Subaru,[418] and others have been proven to be falsifying fuel economy or emissions on non-diesel powered and/or commercial vehicles.

  • A community-led fork of Organic Maps

    Jump

  • The preceding open letter to Organic Maps shareholders gives some context for the decision to fork.

    The Organic Maps project has been built and promoted under the premise of being an open community project, so it's troubling to discover that the majority of shareholders consider it to be their sole property. More concerns include lack of transparency and accountability in project governance and violation of stated Free and Open Source Software values. (see Addendum for the details)[…]

    Interesting and troubling read, didn’t know that about Organic Maps.

  • Thunderbird plans on expanding offerings with additional services

  • So much needless negativity. Not all features need to be for you.

    But, given some users' sensitivity to this, these types of features will always be optional for use by people who want them.

    I would welcome a local model with good integration, I have use for it.
