“Exploring SFW Content On The Hub” — “Esplorando Contenuti SFW Sull’Hub”
Conosco da tempo immemore il famoso meme per cui qualcuno va su PornHub e assolutamente non per guardare contenuti disgustosi, signora mia, ci mancherebbe, ovviamente guardo solo roba per bene lì sopra, che però su altri siti per qualche motivo non è stata caricata, e quindi mannaggia… Eppure, io pensavo fosse appunto un meme; sapevo […]

“Exploring SFW Content On The Hub” — “Esplorando Contenuti SFW Sull’Hub”
Conosco da tempo immemore il famoso meme per cui qualcuno va su PornHub e assolutamente non per guardare contenuti disgustosi, signora mia, ci mancherebbe, ovviamente guardo solo roba per bene lì sopra, che però su altri siti per qualche motivo non è stata caricata, e quindi mannaggia… Eppure, io pensavo fosse appunto un meme; sapevo che stranamente lì sopra si trovano anche video non pornografici, ed esattamente da ciò sarebbe nato il ridere, ma credevo fossero comunque delle rarità… e, invece, sotto sotto, l’ipotetica scusa di cui sopra potrebbe per qualcuno non essere una scusa, ma la verità. (No, dai, non prendiamoci in giro.) 😳youtube.com/watch?v=ZsxgSk09eD…
PornHub non lo uso (anche perché mi fa paura che, come Facebook, sia fatto in PHP… e intendo PHP vecchio, col routing di merda che negli URL include
.php)… ma, di contro, su YouTube ho infatti trovato questo bel video pazzo, dove questo qui spiega le varie cose safe-for-work (cioè, video che potrebbero stare ovunque) che ha trovato proprio lì sopra, e non a caso: A quanto pare, il sito ha proprio una categoria chiamata SFW, dove vengono inserite le cose che porni non sono… e, tutto sommato, non sono affatto poche. 🤯La cosa che meno mi stupisce è che ci siano video di gaming, perché, come lui stesso dice nel video, i gamer sono praticamente scarafaggi che senza fatica infestano l’intero Internet dall’alba dei tempi — e, aggiungerei io, proprio come scarafaggi temo che riuscirebbero a resistere anche se una bomba atomica virtuale si abbattesse sull’intera rete togliendo di mezzo tutti gli altri — però fa comunque impressione… Soprattutto se il motivo è che su PornHub, contemporaneamente, da un lato si ottengono più visualizzazioni per gli standard di canali medio-piccoli rispetto a YouTube (!), e dall’altro si guadagnano più soldi da queste (e beh, da quel che so PornHub è anche peggio di YouTube senza ad-block, con pubblicità di provenienza più che dubbia, quindi ha senso; i gooner mi correggano se sbaglio). 🥴
Poi, ok, il resto è roba un po’ mista… musica, e anche questo forse non stupisce troppo conoscendo le menti degli artisti, video a caso che ricordano un po’ le istanze PeerTube sfigate, ma direi che se voglio vedere quelli me ne vado appunto su PeerTube, propaganda religiosa, ma anche quella si trova praticamente su qualsiasi sito di condivisione di video, e i commenti dicono che si trovano anche lezioni di matematica, di cui il tizio nel video non ha parlato… e a questo punto io davvero non so più in che linea temporale sto vivendo. Ah e, infine, c’è una specie di meta secondario all’interno di tutto questo, per cui alcuni utenti che caricano video SFW li titolano come se fossero roba NSFW… e un pochino ridere in effetti fa. 💃
La cosa per me relativamente stupefacente, però, è che questa parte del sito non è roba nuova… eppure ha senso, altrimenti non credo che il meme sarebbe mai nato già tanto tempo fa, non essendoci altrimenti stati video SFW caricati in generale, penso. Cercando
"pornhub sfw"sul web (virgolette incluse, altrimenti escono solo risultati del sito di PornHub… ‘stammerda sarebbe da chiudere anche solo per la quantità di SEO spam che fa secondo me), infatti, ci sono vari articoli di testate risalenti addirittura al decennio scorso che parlano di questa cosa… e ho trovato un comunicato della piattaforma di fine 2018 dove annunciano la nuova categoria praticamente come una presa per il culo a Starbucks, che ha voluto vietare ai clienti di guardare porno nei loro negozi: pornhub.com/press/show?id=1741. (…Ma chi cazzo è che guarda i porno mentre prende il caffé al gusto di diabete??? Non penso ci sia nessuno che si impegna così nel rovinare contemporaneamente il corpo e la mente!) 🧸Octt è un’entità completamente safe-for-work, ma forse il suo corpo è comunque interessante. Ora puoi scoprire le conseguenze che ha subito a causa della medicina moderna, su stuffoctt: Intervista alla ragazza magica dopo 50 giorni di terapia riparatoria della discrepanza corporea.

How a Private Company Won the War Waged on It by the Mightiest State: Huawei’s Secret Comeback Revealed
cross-posted from: news.abolish.capital/post/3872
From Toshiba to Huawei: America’s Long War on Superior Competitors.
For decades, the United States championed free markets and fair competition—until it no longer had the upper hand.
Today, oligarchs like Peter Thiel—a key player in the U.S. security apparatus and founder of Palantir, the taxpayer-funded surveillance and profiling giant built with CIA backing—say competition is “bad for business.”
In Thiel’s world, monopoly is not just acceptable; it is the true engine of innovation and profit, turning the American ideal of open markets on its head.
In reality, Washington’s “commitment” to free markets was always lip service. The U.S. has consistently tried to crush superior competitors of its major corporations. Economic warfare is nothing new.
Take Toshiba: According to an August 1992 Los Angeles Times article, it was Japan’s leading chipmaker in the 1980s, commanding about 80% of the global market for dynamic random access memory (DRAM) in 1987.
Like Huawei today, Toshiba became a U.S. target under the banner of “national security.”
After Toshiba and a Norwegian firm sold advanced milling machines to the Soviet Union in 1986—just as other European companies had done—Washington pounced.
It imposed a sweeping two- to five-year ban on all Toshiba products, claiming a threat to U.S. security. This blow cleared the way for American chipmakers, while other foreign companies that sold similar equipment to the USSR escaped unscathed.
Whether Toshiba, Alstom or Swiss banking, the story is the same: Washington weaponizes “law,” “security” and “ethics” to eliminate rivals, then adopts the very practices it condemns abroad.
But Huawei—and by extension, China—is a different kind of target. Unlike Japan, France or Switzerland, China cannot be easily coerced into submission. On the contrary, the U.S. campaign against Huawei is far more likely to backfire, turning into a decisive defeat for the Western aggressors—as the rest of this article will show.

Displaying Images From View Community
Sorry, new guy here.
So about images, on my desktop browser, when I click just on the thumbnail to the side, I'm expecting the image to display. But the image loading graphics just keep looping without any image.
If I click the post, the image typically displays as expected.
On Voyager, tapping the thumbnail loads the image to the screen as expected.
So, I just visited your instance and there is definitely an issue...but I am not sure I will really be of much help. When I click an image, it looks like the lightbox javascript is being blocked by the CSP. Here is what I see in the browser console:
The CSP that ships with piefed should allow the lightbox to run without issue. Perhaps there is a reverse proxy or CDN applying a stricter CSP? Maybe a browser plugin of some kind?
This kind of web admin stuff isn't really my area of expertise though.
That's it, yes.
If we use the browser dev tools to look at the CSP header that the HTML page returns, we can see that piefed.social has a different one than kopitalk.net. Below is piefed.social's one:
It's probably cloudflare or nginx causing that.
EDIT: 2025-10-25 at 11h29 - I deleted the Content-Security-Policy and PieFed displays images as expected.
Reasoning
So after crawling through some very old Reddit posts, I came across other self-hosters discussing their new found interest in Security Headers from 5 years ago (dated, yes). Among the comments was a post by pentesticals (glorious):
::: spoiler quote
Don't stress about security headers and CSP. These are there to help provide additional protection against client-side issues which may or may not be present.
These will not have any direct impact on your services you expose, rather they aim to be a last resort to protect your browser in case an attacker tries to exploit existing vulnerabilities such as a Cross Site Scripting - but not having these does not increase the risk of your server being compromised.
Use Nessus Essentials for scanning your services and have fun.

I use Caddy and I can indeed see the security headers that involve CSP. How should this setting be amended?
For what it's worth I looked over the "Using Caddy as reverse proxy" for Lemmy, and I notice that they just don't use the Content-Security-Policy option at all. I'm wondering if I should simply delete this Header for PieFed.

This year, the head of the taskforce pinpointed climate change as one of the major causes, as well as highlighting other problems - the country's aging fishing workforce, a growing reliance on migrant workers, and poor safety training.The seas around Korea are warming more rapidly than the global average, in part because they tend to be shallower. Between 1968 and 2024, the average surface temperature of the country's seas increased by 1.58C, more than double the global rise of 0.74C.

"Analog bags" are in. Doomscrolling is out.
The latest must-have accessory is a "stop-scrolling bag" -- a tote packed with analog activities like watercolors and crossword puzzles. We spend hours glued to our screens. "Analog bags," as they're also called, are one way millennials and Gen Zers are reclaiming that time. "I basically just put everything I could grab for instead of my phone into a bag," including knitting, a scrapbook and a Polaroid camera, says Sierra Campbell, the content creator behind the trend.The 31-year-old keeps one bag at home in Northern California, carrying it from room to room, and another in her car. The trend has quickly spread on social media, part of a bigger shift to unplug. Roughly 1,600 TikTok posts were tagged #AnalogLife during the first nine months of 2025 -- up over 330% from the same period last year, according to TikTok data shared with Axios.
"It speaks to an incredible desperation and desire for experiences that return our attention to us, that fight brain-rotting, that are tactile ... that involve creating over scrolling," says Beth McGroarty, vice president of research at the Global Wellness Institute.

What are your thoughts on IPTV in 2025? Reliability, speed, and channel quality seem to vary a lot lately.
Hey everyone,
I’ve been in the IPTV world for a few years now, and I’ve noticed big differences lately between services — especially when it comes to stability during live events (sports, PPV, etc.). Some providers struggle with buffering or channels going down mid-match, while others run perfectly smooth.
What do you guys look for in a good IPTV provider — channel count, sports coverage, reliability, or price?
For context, I manage IPTVpakket.net
— we’ve been testing different server setups and load-balancing systems to keep streams stable even when thousands connect at once.
I’d love to hear your experiences and what matters most to you when choosing IPTV in 2025. Let’s share insights 👇

On The Ning Nang Nong

On the Ning Nang Nong
Where the cows go Bong!
and the monkeys all say BOO!
There’s a Nong Nang Ning
Where the trees go Ping!
And the tea pots jibber jabber joo.
On the Nong Ning Nang
All the mice go Clang
And you just can’t catch ’em when they do!
So its Ning Nang Nong
Cows go Bong!
Nong Nang Ning
Trees go ping
Nong Ning Nang
The mice go Clang
What a noisy place to belong
is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!

It's supposed to be payday for many federal workers. Instead, they're getting nothing
The sight was staggering in Prince George's County, Md., home to more than 60,000 federal workers: middle-class professionals lined up for boxes of pasta, protein and produce to feed their families.
After a two-hour wait, Wanda Bright had finally reached the front of the line --- just as the first batch of supplies ran out.
The Capital Area Food Bank had started the day with 300 boxes, enough for 150 government employees to receive two boxes each. It turned out that the need was even greater.

I guess it's a little more compact to make it internal, but I'd think that an external USB drive would be a much better option, not compete for space in the laptop. I mean, people can't be using the thing all the time.

Though there was a point in the past when laptop vendors would design the laptop to support a secondary battery in the optical drive bay if you didn't want an internal optical drive, and that would be something I'd like. That's the only way you can exceed the 100Wh maximum on flights, if the battery is a spare removeable, not built-in.

Interesting video, but a bit of clickbait.
The "tipping point" they're talking about is renewable energy, particularly solar. It's now dropped in price to the point where it's the cheapest option for energy. That means it's not just the best ecological choice, but the most economical as well. That increases adoption, which will drive prices down even further.

Republicans are barreling toward an Obamacare subsidy cliff — with no unified plan
The White House has shown little urgency in extending the subsidies until shutdown ends.
Republicans are barreling toward the upcoming Obamacare enrollment period without a unified plan to address the sticker shock that millions of Americans are likely to experience due to the expiration of key federal subsidies.
The lack of direction comes from the top, with Trump not providing clear guidance to his party on how he wants to deal with the expiring subsidies that could result in dramatic out-of-pocket price hikes for enrollees.

Virginia Democrats are the next surprising entrant into the redistricting battle
State lawmakers are launching a rushed effort to overhaul the state’s maps, which currently have a 6-5 split.
Virginia Democrats are poised to enter the nationwide redistricting battle, according to three Democrats familiar with the plans, taking on an effort to redraw the state’s congressional lines just days before closely watched elections in the state.
How exactly the state’s map will change is not yet clear. The state’s delegation is currently split between six Democrats and five Republicans, with three members — Democrat Eugene Vindman and Republicans Rob Wittman and Jen Kiggans — in potentially competitive races.
“We are opening up the process reluctantly because of this aggressive midterm redistricting by Republicans in response to Trump across the country,” said one Virginia Democrat familiar with the plans.

HP OneAgent Update Broke Entra Trust on HP AI Devices
A faulty HP OneAgent update (version 1.2.50.9581) silently deleted Microsoft Entra ID certificates on HP's AI-enabled devices, breaking cloud authentication for affected organizations1. The issue stemmed from a cleanup script in package SP161710 that indiscriminately removed certificates containing "1E" in their identifiers, inadvertently deleting critical MS-Organization-Access certificates needed for Entra ID authentication1.
The problem specifically affected HP's Next Gen AI models like the EliteBook X Flip G1i, with the update pushed through HP's AWS IoT backend without proper testing1. While HP has pulled the problematic update, affected devices require manual intervention - either logging in with local admin credentials to rejoin Entra ID or using Microsoft Defender's Live Response for remote fixes12.
According to HP, "The update is no longer available and will not affect more AI PCs. We're investigating the issue and working closely with impacted customers on mitigation"3.

Eigene Mastodon-Instanz betreiben – lohnt sich das?
In den letzten Jahren hat das Fediverse – also dezentrale soziale Netzwerke wie Mastodon – immer mehr Aufmerksamkeit bekommen. Viele, die sich mit digitaler Unabhängigkeit, Datenschutz oder Community-Management beschäftigen, stellen sich früher oder später die Frage:
Sollte ich (oder meine Organisation) eine eigene Mastodon-Instanz betreiben?
Ich habe mich mal mit den Argumenten, Erfahrungsberichten und praktischen Herausforderungen beschäftigt. Hier ist mein persönlicher Blick auf das Thema.
Warum überhaupt eine eigene Mastodon-Instanz?
Kontrolle über Marke, Daten und Community
Die vielleicht wichtigste Motivation: Unabhängigkeit und Kontrolle.
Eine eigene Instanz bedeutet, dass du selbst entscheidest, wie sie aussieht, welche Regeln gelten und wie mit Nutzerdaten umgegangen wird. Du kannst dein eigenes Branding etablieren, Inhalte selbst moderieren und eine Community nach deinen Werten aufbauen.
Datenhoheit und digitale Unabhängigkeit
Während zentrale Plattformen wie X (Twitter) oder Facebook jederzeit Richtlinien ändern oder Accounts sperren können, behältst du bei einer eigenen Instanz die volle Datenhoheit.
Niemand kann dich „abschalten“, und du entscheidest, welche Daten gespeichert oder gelöscht werden.
Das schafft nicht nur Vertrauen, sondern auch eine langfristige, nachhaltige digitale Identität.
Eine Gemeinschaft mit klaren Werten schaffen
Mit einer eigenen Instanz kannst du eine maßgeschneiderte Community aufbauen – mit klaren Regeln, passender Moderation und eigenem Fokus.
Ob Fachcommunity, Verein, Familie oder Organisation – du definierst, was erlaubt ist, welche Themen im Vordergrund stehen und wie der Ton gestaltet wird. Erwähnt sei hier die Instanz von Erik welcher mich erst mal auf den Gedanken für diesen Beitrag gebracht hat.
Teil des großen Ganzen – mit eigener Identität
Eine Mastodon-Instanz ist kein isoliertes Netzwerk. Sie ist Teil des Fediverse, das über das ActivityPub-Protokoll mit tausenden anderen Instanzen verbunden ist.
Das bedeutet: Du kannst mit allen anderen kommunizieren – und trotzdem deine eigene, unverwechselbare Identität behalten.
Was gegen eine eigene Instanz spricht
Technischer Aufwand & Wartung
Eine Instanz läuft nicht von allein.
Du musst dich um Updates, Sicherheit, Backups und Monitoring kümmern – und dafür braucht es entweder technisches Know-how oder einen verlässlichen Hoster.
Ohne diese Basis wird aus der idealistischen Idee schnell eine Belastung.
Laufende Kosten
Auch wenn Open Source kostenlos ist, ist der Betrieb es nicht.
Serverkosten, Speicherplatz, Domain, ggf. E-Mail-Hosting – das summiert sich.
Ein realistischer Einstieg liegt bei rund 10–30 € pro Monat, für größere Instanzen mit vielen Nutzer*innen kann es deutlich mehr werden.
Weniger Reichweite & Netzwerkeffekt
Kleine Instanzen haben oft ein Reichweitenproblem.
Je nach Einstellungen und Föderationsstatus kann es sein, dass Beiträge nur von wenigen gesehen werden.
Wer Sichtbarkeit und Interaktion sucht, ist auf großen Instanzen oft besser aufgehoben.
Verantwortung & Rechtliches
Wer eine Instanz betreibt, ist nicht nur technisch, sondern auch rechtlich verantwortlich.
Das bedeutet: Impressumspflicht, Datenschutzrichtlinie, DSGVO-Konformität, ggf. Moderationspflichten (besonders bei öffentlichen Servern).
Man übernimmt Verantwortung – nicht nur für Technik, sondern für Menschen und Inhalte.
Fazit: Wann lohnt sich eine eigene Mastodon-Instanz?
Eine eigene Instanz ist keine Spielerei, sondern eine bewusste Entscheidung.
Sie lohnt sich dann, wenn du:
- eine Community, Organisation oder Marke mit klaren Werten betreibst,
- Verantwortung übernehmen willst,
- und bereit bist, Zeit und etwas Geld in digitale Unabhängigkeit zu investieren.
Wenn du dagegen nur privat posten oder „Mastodon ausprobieren“ willst, ist der Einstieg über eine bestehende Instanz (z. B. chaos.social, troet.cafe oder mastodon.social) oft der bessere Weg.
Eine offizielle Liste mit der man gezielt suchen kann, gibt es hier.
Mein persönliches Fazit
Ich sehe in eigenen Instanzen einen echten Mehrwert – nicht für alle, aber für viele.
Für Projekte, die Wert auf Eigenständigkeit, Datenschutz und Community-Kultur legen, kann es ein großartiges Werkzeug sein.
Für Gelegenheitsnutzer*innen dagegen ist es eher ein Overkill.
Wer aber bereit ist, die Verantwortung zu tragen, gestaltet damit nicht nur ein soziales Netzwerk – sondern ein Stück digitale Zukunft.

in reply to orioler25 • • •Capitalism evolved out of feudalism in large part due to the availability of fossil fuels. The claim is that capitalism is necessary to manage scarcity, in fact capitalism evolved in the greatest period of wealth humankind will likely ever know. Fossil fuels power capitalism. It is the system that evolved to turn fossil fuels into wealth for the richest.
We could have a currency backed by carbon emissions, which we could use to ration fossil fuel use, but, well, we won't.
