X plans to collect biometric information, job, education history for safety, security, and identification purposes. (thehackernews.com)

"Based on your consent, we may collect and use your biometric information for safety, security, and identification purposes," The revised policy of X(Twitter) is expected to go into effect on September 29, 2023.

The thing is, biometric data is permanent and can't be changed. If we share that with X, it could mean lifelong privacy risks. And seriously, I can't think of a single reason why Elon needs to know where I went to high school for data security purposes.

People keep talking about leaving Twitter, but when will they actually do that? I guess they'll just keep putting up with it, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Hi All, instance admin of rabbitea.rs here; on upgrading to 18.2 I've noticed that the css of my instance has broken in a few strange ways. Anyone have any pointers to whats new in the FE that's causing this?

Welp that answers a lot of why all .ml are down in c/technology@lemmy.world

You should check out the OpenNic project, which is an organization that has already attempted what you're describing.

What obscure cartoons/media from your childhood do you remember? in c/chat@beehaw.org

I swear - there used to be a segment on CBC kids where children would submit short films they had made. The mascot was an electric wall outlet; I have not been able to find anyone else who remembers this but it was definitely real because I have a number of home movies I wanted to submit to it.

Migrating pictrs from block storage to object? in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
[–] hop@rabbitea.rs 1 points 1 year ago

It appears the version of pict-rs used in the ansible build is an older one with different commands. I didn't choose to upgrade it for risk of messing with Lemmy Compatibility.

Migrating pictrs from block storage to object? (rabbitea.rs)
 

Hey everyone, new instance admin here after following the Ansible setup.

I'm curious about how to switch from block storage for images to object storage - it's marked as possible in the documentation but I'm not sure how to do so when the application is dockerized (as it is on a standard install.)

Any other instance admins have advice?
