kuschkufan··on Creepy Crawlies
login or you will not get the full service is exactly what facebook and co are doing and what your suggested would amount to. the kernel.org stated quite clearly they want to remain a public service. which i applaud.

because they do not want to be twitter, reddit, facebook, ...
kuschkufan··on Instagram is incorporating users' photos in ads for Meta Glasses
did not think of that, maybe it's this. i tried a couple typos just now and holy shit most of these are registered and you land on some really dodgy shit, i.e. porn and sites that seem to try out browser exploits. did not find the scam site from earlier, but can't count it out either.

do not go to sites like xancel.com, xcancl.com, xcncl.com .. they are not safe. damn typoswatters.

kuschkufan··on Instagram is incorporating users' photos in ads for Meta Glasses
i edited it to the same url before opening as i usually do for twitter urls so that i can see the full conversation without being logged into twitter.

for some reason the url rewrote iteself to this: https://themenspiegel.click/c/de/52_merzchrupalla/?method=po...

which is a german language scam site. i have no explanation how this happened, whether it is xcancel.com doing this or something loaded from twitter that caused xcancel to do this. never seen anythin like it before, would like to know more.

btw any further reloads of the xcancel url to that tweet totally work as expected.

kuschkufan··on Reddit Launching Video Comments Feature
right on track to unroll any and every past effort humanity achieved in the reading/writing department, script will become useless again.

compare with whatsapp voice messages and short videos already being the widely accepted norm.

we just need more focus on voice input/output support with llm agents now to accelerate this.

kuschkufan··on Gemini CLI will stop working from June 18, 2026
here we go again: https://steve-yegge.medium.com/dear-google-cloud-your-deprec...

which is mainly this part on googles thinking:

> Drop whatever you are doing because it’s not important. What is important is OUR time. It’s costing us time and money to support our shit, and we’re tired of it, so we’re not going to support it anymore. So drop your fucking plans and go start digging through our shitty documentation, begging for scraps on forums, and oh by the way, our new shit is COMPLETELY different from the old shit, because well, we fucked that design up pretty bad, heh, but hey, that’s YOUR problem, not our problem.

kuschkufan··on Why the open social web matters now
1) periodjet guy seems to think "social media" is only twitter. 2) he also has no understanding of what "authoritarian" means. it's not just a word to be dismissive of things one doesn't like.

cue links to the nothing burger that is "Twitter Files" lol

kuschkufan··on That Secret Service SIM farm story is bogus
there is literally no point discussing further here. you've made up your mind already and will defend that no matter what.
kuschkufan··on That Secret Service SIM farm story is bogus
If the story is espionage, but it isn't actually espionage then the story is bogus, flimflam, propaganda. Made to make you believe, i mean look, we asked all these experts too. And you are not an expert on this, so better believe us.

kuschkufan··on Rost – Rust Programming in German
only narrow-minded people see an idea which was intended as a joke as validation for their opinion and then go on and drone on about their stubborn ideas to lecture the world with their agenda

other people however are busy implementing something in rost to further anger the former

kuschkufan··on Tesla created secret team to suppress driving range complaints (2023)
Sounds like you'd be in favour of tolls for german Autobahns. Otherwise, perfect comment, so some clueless about german roads might now be scared off and thus not further crowd them.
