Ken White, aka Popehat, a lawyer and popular poster on #Bluesky was recently suspended (https://www.popehat.com/p/a-bit-of-tedious-drama-at-bluesky). Suspension now over, Ken writes:
"...I believe that returning after a suspension carries with it an implicit promise that I won’t post that, or something like it, again. I won’t make that promise, so I won’t return to Bluesky."
Indeed, Bluesky is demonstrating they can extort censorship with the ban hammer. Other users are put on notice it's not you this time, toe the line.

@mastodonmigration My take on this, from a network/protocols/platform perspective, is that this is an indication that the "stacked moderation" that Bluesky is trying is failing to solve the scaling problem with moderation. As Ken points out, many, many other people - most of them more marginalized and with less of a platform than Ken - have been temporarily or permanently banned. In theory, Bluesky has a bunch of tools, including shared blocklists and a "label" system that give users a significant amount of control over their experience, and it's the users themselves that get to create these things. This is good, and the Fediverse has things it should learn from this. However, the original idea was that Bluesky would do minimal moderation at the "base" layer, and these "stacked" tools would be the main way users kept their experience safe and enjoyable. This was supposed to solve the problem that Mike Masnick has written about extensively that good moderation does not scale. Unfortunately, this is not how it has worked out. Yes, users make good use of the stacked tools. But Bluesky is still doing bad moderation at the base layer.

Updated Raspberry Pi OS With Linux 6.18 LTS Delivers Some Performance Benefits
Last week marked the release of an updated Raspberry Pi OS that moved to Linux 6.18 LTS from its former Linux 6.12 kernel base along with making a number of other package updates. Given the jump to the newer Long Term Support kernel and other improvements, I ran some fresh benchmarks on the Raspberry Pi 5 (Raspberry Pi 500+) to see the performance difference out of the updated operating syste…

I've debated posting, but after the Montreal shooting I think I should.
I have an anonymous stalker harassing me on Bluesky. He repeatedly says he has weapons and is plotting to kill people, among other things.
I've tried my local police, FBI tips, Bluesky safety, Columbus Ohio PD (where I believe he is). Nothing is happening, so I'm requesting help here.
If there's anybody who works in cyber safety or handles stuff like this and you think you can do something, I would love to chat.

We've seen this movie before. In 2023 journalist Taylor Lorenz @taylorlorenz was suspended from Twitter ironically also for posting about Elon Musk, initiating a regime of increasing censorship and control over user content, mostly self enforced to avoid the same fate.
Bluesky users take note, this is about freedom of expression and the chilling effect of knowing you may be banned for stepping over arbitrary lines set by the owners of your centralized platform.

Hello everyone, the two releases we announced today (v0.21.3 and v0.22.0-rc4) each contain an important fix for a security vulnerability about which we will disclose more details next week to give people time to upgrade.
In the meantime:
If you're on #GoToSocial v0.22.0 release candidates, please update to v0.22.0-rc4 as soon as you can: https://gts.superseriousbusiness.org/@gotosocial/statuses/01KVYXVTG5BNKEVHJMDYPWGTPC
If you're on #GoToSocial v0.21.2 or below, please update to v0.21.3 as soon as you can: https://gts.superseriousbusiness.org/@gotosocial/statuses/01KVYXQQS1JB0HJEJ060ZAJPQR The update from v0.21.x to v0.21.3 contains no database migrations or anything so it should be very quick + easy.

the problem with garbage collection is that you eventually run out of other people's heap.

You see this shit, this shit is what happens when people don't touch coins. If these people picked up a JAMMA cab cash bucket full of a grand's worth of quarters and gave it a shake and slished their fingers around in the coins they'd feel much better and their brains wouldn't be doing so much of this because their fingers would know that money was real. I'm not just saying that because I'm in the coin-op industry, I'm 100% serious
