#PSA If your account is dedicated to posting *someone else's nude photos*, and they haven't given you explicit permission, then you're being a shitty human and your account should be reported and suspended. No profit from stolen nudes.

#PSA - I recently stopped my windows based computer backing every document and photo to the #Cloud because fuck #Microsoft and their #LLM - I never asked for their fucking cloud storage in the first place. Or their LLM that they incorrectly call AI - it is not AI and can’t even add up.

Anyway, as part of this process, Microsoft then automatically deleted all my files - *including* the versions on my own computer. Fuck Microsoft.

As it happens, I back up all my computer files on an external HardDisk on the first day of every month. As a result, I was able to copy the files and directories back to my computer with little disruption.

If you are going to disconnect from your cloud storage - be warned in advance … back up all your files and directories on an external Hard Disk first.

Hello Fediverse I want to make a short announcement about the https://social.trom.tf Friendica instance run by my friend @tio

Currently that instance is going through a big server migration process and it will take a couple of hours for it to get finished. So if you mention or send anyone messages during this time it might not reach them.

If you have a newsletter (or know someone who has one) on Substack, please pass this link on: soon they won't be able to port their paid subscriptions off to a different platform, because Apple will be handing the money. They must act ASAP to get off the Nazi propaganda platform to an alternative.

Gentle request.

Please don't drop fake stuff for the lols for April fools.

We all have enough mental bandwidth consumed filtering out active disinformation and innocent mistakes to add to the burden. In general they aren't funny and degrade many folks online experience.

Thanks for listening.

Content warning: PSA: Please CW your article links if the article has triggering images (auto-thumbnails suck 😡) Click to open/close

Guess what. Mastodon by default embeds article images inside the post as a preview.

I just happened to see an article with a rather triggering image that now I can't boost because the image is too triggering for some people, even if the post itself was not.

Alas, I can't boost that post now.

Earlier this week I shared a link to a medical article and surprise! Gore!

But add a CW to your posts, and by magic all images are now blurred.

Ever since whoever decided to auto fetch images inarticle preview cards, I can't share links without CWs anymore.

Moral of the story:

If you link an article with potentially triggering images (racism, medical, bugs, etc.) in it, please add a CW to your post.

Thank you.
