Will we, though?

they have the US on their side now

Fun fact: that’s Elijah Wood and it’s his first film role

it has a subtle hint of cola taste

what if the password is “dadabladababada”?

also why you should use good passwords and not reuse them

the thing is: the employer has absolutely 0 say on if a person is sick or not. If a doctor says a person can’t work: that’s it. The company 0 in the matter.

In fact, the company isn’t even allowed to ask why a person is sick. An official note from the doctor is all that matters

The headline suggests the opposite

sometimes I wonder how many of these oopsies are coverups for informant leaks

Abolutely necessarily.

it works like this:

• @privateuser@mastodon.example.com has a “followers only account”.
• @someuser@pixelfed.example.com is a friend of above account, requested access and was granted. This now causes mastodon.example.com to push all messages of @privateuser to pixelfed.example.com.
• @anotheruser@pixelfed.example.com requests access, but gets ignored. But the pixelfed instance marks the user as “follows @privateuser”
• In the interface of @someuser, the messages are shown as expected.
• In the interface of @anotheruser, they are also shown. Because PF basically does a database “select messages of users that the user follows”, without checking if the access was ever granted.

Important to note, that this would not happen, if the messages weren’t already pushed to the server due to the “allowed” user

elaborate

ActivityPub is a half-assed unfinished mess.

tried working on my own service and figured this one out very fast.

It’s amazing that it works at all. 98% of the stuff is not documented at all. and the stuff that is, can hardly be called documentation.

Not if we go butlerian jihad on them first

We’ve been over this. Whatever is going on in your fridge does not count as science

have they looked under the couch?

that’s the problem. you can’t really, without opening the image.

But so far, it doesn’t really appear to be a problem

the problem with this potential issue (if it indeed is one) is, that you don’t need to reply. just opening the DM is enough

fwiw I got the exact image URL in a DM a couple minutes ago. so at least they are not mapping the uuid of the image to a DMd fedi user

That’s a great write-up!
