Today Melissa Lewis over on BlueSky pointed out that the font used nin the infamous "You wouldn't steal a car" anti-piracy campaign was actually designed by Just van Rossum, whose brother, Guido, created the Python programming language (bsky.app/profile/melissa.news/post/3ln7hx5rhcj2v)
She also pointed out that the font had been cloned and released illegally for free under the name "XBAND Rough". Naturally, it would be hilarious if the anti-piracy campaign actually turned out to have used this pirated font, so I went sleuthing and quickly found a PDF from the campaign site with the font embedded (web.archive.org/web/20051223202935/http://www.piracyisacrime.com:80/press/pdfs/150605_8PP_brochure.pdf).
So I chucked it into FontForge and yep, turns out the campaign used a pirated font the entire time!

Io ho trovato molto paternalistico il fatto che quando ho chiesto di cancellare il mio account Facebook abbia risposto una cosa tipo
Per adesso te lo blocco e basta, te lo cancello per davvero fra 30 giorni, così hai tempo per ripensarci.
Ho quasi 56 anni ma non posso decidere di cancellare immediatamente il mio account su Facebook perché lui ha deciso che devo pensarci meglio.
Comunque, i 30 giorni sono passati e il mio account con loro.
Che poi si parla di cancellare un account su Facebook eh, mica di rinunciare alla cittadinanza...

Hiya, Daniela e J. Alfred Prufrock like this.
@Massimiliano Polito 🇪🇺 condivido pienamente quanto scrivi.
Intanto è passato un giorno, e il mio tentativo di cancellazione - sia pure con i 30 gg per ripensarci - continua a non andare a buon fine.
"Si è verificato un errore - Riprova più tardi."
Tutto quel fior d'ingegneria, tutta quell'AI e non riescono a formulare un messaggio d'errore più informativo, che magari mi possa fornire un indizio sul motivo per cui non mi stia permettendo di cancellare un account che porta il mio nome?
Piccolo aggiornamento tragicomico: non posso neanche disattivare. Stesso messaggio "Si è verificato un errore. Riprovare più tardi."
Ho provato anche da cellulare, ma niente.
Il tentativo di disattivazione è anche umiliante perché obbliga a fornire una motivazione per questa scelta. Tra le motivazioni, peraltro, manca "Perché non funziona l'eliminazione".
Facebook è veramente il male.

Mi sembra di essere come un personaggio di quei manga dove il protagonista deve provare e fallire centinaia di volte e perseverare, attendere e digiunare, soffrire e perseverare ancora, fino al momento in cui arriva al momento perfetto, padroneggia e perfeziona il gesto e diventa una persona nuova.
Mi sento così mentre continuo a effettuare il login, seguire i menù a memoria fino alla voce che mi consentirebbe di eliminare l'account, schivare le domande sul perché lo faccio e gli avvisi sul fatto di perdere anche la pagina X e il gruppo Y, ri-autenticarmi per motivi di sicurezza e arrivare al pulsantone dall'aspetto grosso e definitivo.
Ci faccio sopra "clic", un indicatore d'attesa gira facendomi credere che il sistema stia finalmente frullando, distruggendo il mio account, e alla fine, quando mi aspetto di leggere "Hai eliminato il tuo account", vedo invece comparire "Si è verificato un errore. Riprova più tardi". E non posso neanche riprovare: mi ritrovo con la sessione chiusa, per cui bisogna scalare di nuovo la montagna.
Riproverò.
Quarto giorno.
Ancora niente.

Facebook launched a tool, Manage Activity, that allows users to delete all their old posts and photos. The options allow you to choose, or do it in bulk.Mikael Thalen (The Daily Dot)
Mi sovviene un dubbio atroce: nel tentativo (a vuoto) di cancellare il profilo loggandomi dietro VPN (freeopenvpn, Germania e USA), ho dovuto validare l'accesso con un codice ricevuto via email.
Nell'email che usavo con FB ho quindi trovato un'email datata ieri: "Bentornato/a su Facebook" - "L'account Facebook è stato riattivato".
Non è che la procedura va a buon fine nonostante il messaggio d'errore?
Per scoprirlo però devo evitare di fare altri tentativi per almeno 30 giorni, altrimenti rischio di riattivare tutto a ogni nuovo tentativo.
Ovviamente ho anche tentato la carta dello strumento di segnalazione errori di Facebook, molto ben fatto tecnicamente: per far cadere i tuoi ticket nel vuoto, ma con stile!

CE L'HO FATTA!!
Grazie a tutti per gli incoraggiamenti
Scrivo cosa impediva la cancellazione da #facebook , nel caso possa tornare utile ad altri nella mia situazione.
Nel riepilogo prima del "pulsantone" finale, quello che andava in errore, mi sono saltate all'occhio delle "App" di cui risultavo unico amministratore. Il problema è che non ho mai sviluppato o usato app. Ho aperto la gestione di queste app, che riportavano il nome di alcune vecch(issime) pagine facebook. Le ho rimosse una ad una.
Una volta rimosse le "app" (qualsiasi cosa fossero), la procedura di eliminazione è andata a buon fine.
Adesso: 30 giorni di attesa e il mio account smetterà di esistere! 🍾

Just a note that you linked to what I assume is the testing site 😀 You probably meant gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-3.…
Congrats on the release!
Introduction¶ After seven years of active development, we are proud to announce the next major release of GIMP – GIMP 3.www.gimp.org
@Scott_Trakker@mastodon.world @GIMP@floss.social Go way dude. You're the one that showed up in my mentions to complain that someone doesn't appreciate trash. You're not king of the internet, bro. Go away.SFBA.social
@jonathankoren Please keep it civil - thank you.
GIMP is produced by volunteers. If you want specific features, yes, please file issues. If you want to be on the design team join the design team. But without code being written by volunteers, there won’t be changes. Vague suggestions like “modern editing tools” are hard to implement.
I really think you should sell the software binaries like #Ardour does. Not less than US $100. Free updates until next major version.
Many human beings will always be ungrateful for what they are given for free without payment.
Congratulations to the team for all the hard work!!
Never mind the trolls and keep going!!
@giggls You didn't, but the devs do.
And the main issue isn't about gay people, it's that it's a derogatory term for physically disabled persons. The most accurate German translation would probably be "Krüppel".
@fallbackerik @Toastface @supertobi @giggls @scy and also change the plug-in API, rewrite 10,000+ plug-ins and scripts, courses, documentation, 70+ language translations, find hosting for > 100K downloads/day...
Changing the name is a possibility for the future; for now we have what we have. A hostile fork is always possible, but you do need a team of developers.
@fallbackerik @supertobi @giggls @scy
I understand the scope of work and don't expect miracles. Perhaps rewording your FAQ would make it seem a little less hostile to the idea that the name might be inappropriate.
@fallbackerik @Toastface @supertobi @giggls @scy
You could just drop the G from the abbreviation, the word "IMP" would work fine as it's a mischievous fairy.
I mean this in a really positive way: you have an army of people waiting to promote you and support you, but they're being held back because of the letter G. It would be a tiny change and massive reward for you 🙂
just chiming in to share my support for this idea! A name change is a powerful way to let people know that you are taking a new approach to things. I can see a lot of people talking about this maybe for something like a 4.0 release (I know, we just got 3.0, but I'm thinking several years out).
Great seeing fresh energy behind this project!

The discussion about the name is very old. It is even in the FAQ:
gimp.org/docs/userfaq.html#i-d…
And there was a fork, Glimpse, but they could not find enough contributors:
news.itsfoss.com/glimpse-gimp-…
And that's how open source works. If no one cares, nothing will change.
A few years back, someone forked GIMP into Glimpse because the term “GIMP” was offensive in a way. Not just limited to the name, but the fork also aimed to do better than what GIMP offered, with a potential to introduce an easier user interface and …Ankush Das (It's FOSS News)
Congratulations a big achievement, an amazing program. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
I have mixed feelings about this as I know it will 1. probably be as clunky to use as its predecessors, 2. probably not have backward compatibility including breaking plugins.
But as there is no FOSS alternative to GIMP with the breadth of functionality of it, that I'm aware of, we just have to suck it up.
Congratulations, I guess?
Gimp is not clunky, and everything that is based on GEGL is NDE, this a pretty big achievement.
Much Love to #GIMP.

@rawrmonstar @supertobi @piratenpanda @mxjaygrant For what it's worth, this issue was discussed during a team meet-up in the last few years: developer.gimp.org/conferences…
It's one of the many things that developers want to come back to, after we recover from the 3.0 release.
I never knew you cared. This is not a joke? Better get the gimp.
I use Linux because it generally does what I do every day. There are a few ok programs out there like gimp, blender, and kdenlive. I mean they get the job done mostly without me having to reboot. Really I had a lot of pirate software and I could not open the gateway for them to report home in Windows is what brought me to Linux. (sorry I thought I was responding to Tom Ellard aka Lard Motel)
Thank you for all the hard work! I've been using GIMP for a while.
(Sorry about all the angry replies, I wish they'd be civil about how they disagree! Change the "offensive" name if you want, but keep up the good work with the actual software! ❤)
Anyone that is complaining about the name is simply an Adobe fanboys...
I seriously doubt it...
I've built GIMP-3 from source. It's nice. My #Linux distro will keep GIMP-2 and feature GIMP-3 as well. I'll comment that, for me, two features are missing from GIMP-3:
SVG support requires Rust now. Rust is a huge dependency to need to add just to get SVG. Additionally, Rust isn't available for some distros and/or architectures. So, for me, GIMP-3 will need to omit SVG. I think that some other distros will make the same decision.
The Create Logo command is gone as well.
Comment to @GIMP : It shouldn't be difficult for "file-svg.c" to support the 'C' version of librsvg. In fact, the code is already there in an "#else" block. It looks like relatively minor changes are needed. However, I haven't been able to make it work yet.
On the other hand, Resynthesizer and #GMIC both build and work. The base GIMP-3 filters plus those two add-ons are most of what I need.
Note to distro admins: To build Resynthesizer for GIMP-3 from source, you presently need to use the "resynthesizer3" git branch.
@gmic may be pleased to hear that GIMP 3.0.2 and GMIC 3.5.3 are confirmed to be simpatico. See the attached screenshot.
Note: The distro and desktop used here are my own 30-year-old project, Laclin. I'm as fond of it as the GIMP and GMIC teams are of their projects.
#gmic 3.6.0 is out. I thought I'd mention that the G'MIC speech bubble feature, which is new in 3.6.0, is confirmed to work in both #GIMP 2.10 and 3.0. This opens up new options for #webcomics creators.

[1]Non è la prima volta e non sarà l'ultima che teatrini della buoncostume avvengono, con questa stessa trama e gli stessi personaggi coinvolti: performer porno, studentɜ, dirigenti scolastici e partiti. Ci sono stati già episodi simili in passato e non hanno alcuna utilità se non inquinare un ambiente già inquinato.
Dal momento però che l'educazione sessuale e affettiva nelle scuole è un tema sempre più pressante - più che altro pressato, quasi spalmato a cazzo 'nsomma - a questo punto vorrei tirare non tanto le somme (non affidatevi alla discalculica) quanto delle tracce che altrimenti, parrebbe, tendiamo a ignorare.
- La pornografia come strumento didattico da portare nelle scuole è possibile. Innanzitutto perché, checché gridino e si strappino i capelli gli adulti assolutamente incapaci di presa sul presente.
[3]Però può essere un ottimo centro dal quale sgomitolare e discutere di società, di desideri e di immaginari.
Il che significa che continuare a illudersi di trarne una qualche educazione sessuale solo perché la sua architettura dell'esplicito consente di vedere cose inerenti alla sessualità, è propriamente in malafede oltre che da idioti. Però la pornografia è un fatto umano e come tale attraversa le età, le società, i costumi; è pure un fatto del capitale e quindi attraversa anche le dinamiche di potere, di oppressione e di immaginari dritti, storti e distorti.
In buona sostanza: basta avere timore di portare la pornografia a scuola: si può creare un dialogo intorno a essa con le persone più giovani. Bisogna cambiare l'approccio con cui costruire il dialogo: il perché e il come, più che il cosa.
[5]che hanno un approccio prettamente clinico e sanitario. Manca la complessità della vita reale, che le persone adolescenti invece vivono con i loro dubbi sul da farsi, giorno per giorno.
- La scuola siffrediana ha investito tutto e tutti in questa ressa allo scandalo; interpellare Felicitas che grida alla censura e si incatena per mostrare dissenso mi fa morire dal ridere, ma peggio è Alberto Pellai (psicoterapeuta e scrittore) che scrive un post al vetriolo su facebook e il vetriolo gli ha risposto chiedendogli "Alberto, sei per caso uno sbirro?". Dico io, onorevole dottor Pellai, siete stato pure citato da Pro Vita, qualcosa pur significherà. Ma lui lo sa benissimo, d'altronde.
Parlo di scuola siffrediana perché c'è tutto: un pornoattore che ce l'ha lungo, lunghissimo, l'ego; un evento che coinvolge anche dei minori per
[6]cui si continua a gridare alla loro protezione - senza interpellarli direttamente, sia mai - e una risposta "dagli esperti" che te la raccomando.
E vai, fino al prossimo scandalo.

Dopo gli innumerevoli video di soldati che umiliano i prigionieri e i morti palestinesi, sui social israeliani è scoppiata una nuova moda: creare contenuti che deridono i bambini di Gaza che hanno perso i genitori sotto le bombe.Dario Lucisano (Lindipendente.online)

Credo che in Israele siano saltati tutti i freni inibitori ormai.
Mi domando anche come gestiranno questa generazione di ventenni trasformati in assassini e criminali di guerra quando ritorneranno a casa. Non penso proprio che deporranno le armi e torneranno le persone che erano prima.

I'm really trying to make sense of the new @mozillaofficial privacy policy.
Here's where I'm getting tripped up:
> Mozilla doesn’t sell data about you (in the way that most people think about ‘selling data’)
OK, sure. But if Moz isn't "selling my data in the way that most people think about selling data" then how *is* Moz selling my data?

Doesn't Google pay them to have their search bar defaulted? I wonder if it's related.
Plus all of the things they're saying about anonymized advertising tokens or whatever
Edit; I'm not interested to learn about the nuances of their pivot to advertising friendliness
Did the people responsible for Biden’s messaging jump over to Moz? 🤦🏻
(disclaimer, I worked at nscp and i want moz to succeed, despite themselves)
"Anonymizing" is nonsense in this context; they're providing user data to 3rd parties in exchange for something. This is a "sale" as reasonable people would understand it.
"We still put a lot of work into making sure that the data that we share with our partners (which we need to do to make Firefox commercially viable) is stripped of any identifying information, or shared only in the aggregate, or is put through our privacy preserving technologies (like OHTTP)."
Unfortunately, they're going about this in the same weasel way as Meta, Google, et al.
🤥 Claims of end-user #privacy via data aggregation are disingenuous -- as we've seen repeatedly.
Author of these new terms is recent hire Ajit Varma.
"Varma, the author of the above announcements, as a Firefox veep after previously looking after WhatsApp for Meta, and before that, Gmail, and its related tools for Google."
⭐ Don't hire from bad actors lest you become one.
Mozilla leaves your data in a hollow tree in a nearby park, and then two weeks later it finds a fat brown envelope stuffed with dollar bills under the doormat. The two events could be quite unrelated, so it's hard to show that Mozilla’s really SELLING the data, per se.
Your data wants to be free. Mozilla accepts modest contributions to cover the costs of giving your data its liberty.
Mozilla is paid exclusively in eggs and maple syrup. It's more like barter than an actual sale.
"we promise we're not gonna do what you think we're gonna do, but we're not gonna tell you what we're going to actually do" shady af, poor communication at best
ima start packing
Can I raise a thought, not as an accusation, but as a question of 'is this a valid concern?'
We always assume data is for advertisers selling AI penis pills, but politics is big money. Possibly bigger.
If political parties or the like wanted to pay good money to profile the people who are trying not to be profiled, wouldn't buying Mozilla data be invaluable?
Especially since Big Tech is rapidly aligning with the new regime, it's hard to shake the thought.
Well yes, if it's worth something to the data market, then it's worth protection for the user.
The value of that data, whether anonymized or identifiable, translates into consumers paying (more).
It's leveraging gateway privilege, part of the 'walled garden' strategy.
smells like selling training data to LLM companies or training LLMs themselves to sell as a service.
Also i absolutely resent the "oh, we are so sorry you were confused by our statement"
I HATE that patronizing double speak corporate PR bullshit.
Apparently it has to do with CCPA’s definition of “selling data” which simply includes data being transferred to any third party for any reason. Because Mozilla uses tools for collecting usage metrics and has some marketing and tracking stuff built in, any third party involved in this would receive this data, and the CCPA considers this “selling data”.
It can apparently be so over-broad that service providers have included this kind of language simply for your data being hosted in their services in a third party provider like Hetzner, AWS, etc.
So it appears to be some potentially over-broad definitions in law.

@bedast I don't buy it, sorry to say. There are graceful ways for orgs + lawyers to handle this. Rather than a broad clause like that, you can separate collection & usage into sections and describe it.
For ex, in cases where data is necessary for payment processing, email subs etc my orgs specify that collection + usage and the reason it's warranted.
Mozilla does telemetry I won't do, but still could've written that in specific terms. No one would have bat an eye.
@bedast it's a hard explanation for me to accept given my experience with Mozilla and folks at Mozilla. They know this stuff re: data and licensing extremely well.
This response seems like a smokescreen, and one with multiple iterations.
I wish Mozilla and Firefox well. There might be some soul-searching here to do and some re-centering of the org around its core values.
@profdiggity I'm a user of medical devices and I ran across someone complaining that Abbott has similar data sharing boilerplate in order to use their Libre sensors. Though it's worth noting Abbott has a bit more regulation to follow via HIPAA.
But one thing they do is host a page that explains all of the ways they use your data with adequate detail. It's possible HIPAA requires this, but it's something other companies could follow to help with trust.
@wizzwizz4 The problem is the moment you use a third party, it has to be disclosed. Firefox has a sync feature. Where are those services hosted? Firefox has Pocket, which has had its own controversies in the past. Where is that hosted?
It’s not always about telemetry. But in the case of Mozilla, it definitely includes telemetry.
Privacy laws define "selling" data as including transferring (aka sharing) data in exchange for economic benefit. So my guess is it's somethiung along those lines.
What I'm especially curious about is whether this is something they've been doing all along, breaking the law in the process, or if it's just something they *want* to do going forward.
