  1. I just learned of the biggest #bullshit feature I heard of: "view once" images in #WhatsApp. The idea is that if you send an image and select the "view once" option, the receiver may only "view it once". After that, it's deleted. And they claim it "prevents screenshots". How? I have no idea.

    It doesn't matter because the whole concept is bullshit, of course.

  3. For all #FreeSoftware newbies out there who are in search of sounds for their #software or #games, here's a a handy #guide on how to find the correct sounds on freesound.org:

    #sounds #licensing #copyright #CreativeCommons #FreeCulturalWorks

  4. Speaking of #FreeCulturalWorks: The original #MickeyMouse from the ancient #cartoon Steamboat Willie will enter the #PublicDomain in the #UnitedStates very very soon, after like 95 (?) years of being copyrighted. 🎉🎉🎉

    I'm not really a Mickey fan but this moment will be of symbolic significance. I wonder what people will do with the #mouse. 😛

    #Disney #copyright

  5. An example for a Free Cultural Work would be Nose Ears, the #webcomic I've been posting for >2 years. 🤓 It has been derived from another webcomic that is also a free cultural work. Nose Ears has become my biggest "side project" and is only possible because of Free Cultural Works.

    (btw: getting close to no. 800!)

  6. For those who wonder what this weird "Approved for Free Cultural Works" means, it's this: freedomdefined.org/Definition

    It's basically free software principles applied to #media.

    In practice this translates to media licensed under CC0, CC BY or CC BY-SA (but not CC BY-NC, for example). There are other valid licenses, check the website for details.

  7. I just saw the new #freesound.org. And I immediately noticed one new feature I've been waiting for years: A one-click #libre #license
    filter.

    Before, you had to awkwardly do two searches for CC0 and CC BY separately to get all libre sounds.

    But now you just need to click on "Approved for Free Cultural Works" and you get a list of all libre sounds! Very good! 👍

    This will be extremely helpful for #FOSS development.

    J. #Serano #debunked "#autogynephilia". Nothing new so far. But what was new to me is that R. #Blanchard engaged in #bisexual and #asexual #erasure to justify his claim. 🤦

    "And Blanchard claimed that asexual trans women are not truly asexual, but rather represent instances where 'autogynephilic disorder nullifies or overshadows any erotic attraction to women'"

    Ah yes, asexual #trans women HAVE to be fake, or else his pet theory would be false. 🤡

    Not to add to the scope creep, but if it'll help your idea, maybe not all bad: there is such thing as stencils in #OpenBlocks (#Minecraft mod), and you can do a variety of granular graphics with those, combining with colors.

    Here in Russia I default to #YandexMaps, but it's entirely for proprietary reasons. I mean, look at just how closed off a lot of information here is! Transportation schedules are not an easy thing to come by, for some reason. Yandex's maps help me make routes I never thought of with data in their possession and even estimate the travel time.

    I could only wish there was a way to transfer all this experience to #OSM #OpenStreetMap, but I see how quickly it would inflate the scope of project...

  20. Turns out Friendship is NOT Magic in #Russia:

    “Russian police shut down My Little Pony convention for promoting ‘LGBTQ+ propaganda’”

    The term “LGBTQ+ propaganda” is itself #propaganda. The #state wants to indoctrinate people into hating minorities so they think the state #oppression is justified.

  25. Public Service Announcement: If you ever need to add a very obscure #language to a piece of software and you can't find an #ISO 639 code for it, remember that ISO 639-2 defines a special range for that.

    All codes between "qaa" and "qtz" (inclusive) are free to be used for anything.

    So just use one of those instead of hacking some ugly special case in your #software or adding some non-standard code.

  26. This is #sad and #infuriating.

    75 people at a private party in #Indonesia were arrested, it was accused by the authorities of being a "#gay party".

    Shit like this is literally what triggered the #Stonewall riots in the #USA.

    I don't know the sexual orientation of the partygoers, but it shouldn’t matter: This form of state bullying is wrong either way.
