I2P April Dev Meeting: https://geti2p.net/en/meetings/258 Discussions about I2P Summer Dev! Focus on optimization - (LS2, newer E2E encryption, massive multihoming).
!GNUsocial can import an #Atom or #RSS feed with #PubSubHubub into a timeline. Select "Settings, Mirroring, Atom or RSS feed" (I'm still on the StatusNet code, so your menu selections may be slightly different)
And there's the terrifying story of Barnaby Jack, who was to give a Defcon talk revealing how to send a pacemaker a signal to deliver a high-voltage shock from a distance. He was found dead days before his scheduled appearance. https://www.rt.com/usa/hacker-pacemaker-barnaby-jack-639/
The best-known case of non-free medical hardware is probably that of Karen Sandler ( @o0karen0o on #Twitter ), who wondered about the lack of access to source code for her pacemaker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFZGpES-St8 @einebiene
Sadly, tying medical equipment to non-free software is all too common. You're right, it's a huge privacy violation, and the End-User-Licence-Agreement allowing them to insert ads in your readouts just makes it worse. Do they make you sign up for an Outlook or Facebook account to keep up-to-date? I hope not. We need more !OpenHardware that runs !FreeSoftware.
Ah, isn't his wonderful! This software will also have ADVERTISEMENTS, and I'm only halfway through reading the licence agreement. I wonder what will be next.

BieneI'm pretty pissed off. I just read up on the software that goes with my blood glucose monitor, and it turns out the company (and their partners) will have access to all my data. That's pretty damn intimate. When I eat and how much, when I sleep, how often I inject or check my blood sugar levels. And there's no way around that. And I get the feeling I also have to switch back to windows. :-(
I get similar errors when I try to "Remote Follow" someone on their Mastodon instance, but everything works correctly when I subscribe to them from the subscriptions page on *my* instance
I have @firehose on my instance. It doesn't seem to take up excessive resources, but my instance is a small one, and @firehose doesn't exhaustively follow everyone. I intended it to get replies in conversations for those people I don't want to follow myself (eg. those who primarily speak a language I don't, but sometimes have interesting conversations in English). But it doesn't work as well as I'd like, and I haven't been maintaining its subscription list very well.
♻ @cphuntington97: a "follow bot" was my first solution to this problem. Does it work reasonably well? does it use up a lot of resources unnecessarily?
I bought the bottle on the left. There's about 10 coffee beans floating in the neck. Haven't cracked it open yet; will probably have it with pancakes tomorrow. Right now I'm too full from all the other food they have here.
