#Google removes #Kodi from search autocomplete in anti-piracy effort - the article state "But, while Kodi is legal software, it remains a space that enables piracy, akin to platforms like BitTorrent."... Yes, like any general purpose computer. 🙄 https://www.theverge.com/2018/3/29/17176894/google-removes-kodi-search-autocomplete-anti-piracy
Meanwhile in Ukraine cellular operators starts to roll out 4G networks in big cities. But right now in 2600 MHz only. Good to hear that, but my phone is old for that and support only 3G

That crazy cat "owl" goes to sleep now. I'm crazy and i know it. :P
Today's lesson: Medium is bad. They've suspended our account and blocked access to all our published stories for bogus reasons and with only 12 hours notice.
Really, asking "what should replace Facebook" is putting things the wrong way around.
A more interesting way to ask the question is, "what did Facebook replace."
People used to build their own websites. People used to have blogs. People used USENET which was truly distributed and un-censorable.
Facebook and Google took the open internet and open standards and monetized and made everything crappy. Enough of that. Nothing should replace Facebook, it's done, stick a fork in it.
Yesterday the @Krita team released version 4.0 of their free and open source painting software. Did you know that you can support the development of this application on Liberapay? https://liberapay.com/Krita
Krita 4.0.0 is here! https://krita.org/en/item/krita-4-0-0-released/
@Krita 4.0 is here!
A new brush set from @davidrevoy SVG support on vector layers, combined brushes, Python scripting and the spanking new Colorize Mask Tool makes this one of the most exciting releases yet.

Great blog post on Slack's "bait and switch".

"The reason email is federated, is because it was developed before surveillance capitalism was a thing and because it was established and entrenched long before these companies came around.
There's a reason why your email address is still the de facto way to sign up for any service on the web (sometimes with one or two degrees of separation), and it's because of federation."
Owl is broken, bring the new one...

Hahahaahahaha holy shit. Hiveway is a fork of Mastodon with blockchain slapped on top, selling ICO tokens, and John McAfee is involved. Wew lad
Let me just interject for a second, what you're referring to as Hiveway is in fact Mastodon/Hiveway or as I've recently begun calling it, Mastodon plus Scam
[fr] Ma mission cette semaine était de fusionner mes brosses pour #Krita sur Krita~4.0beta et d'harmoniser les paramètres (et les miniatures, le tri, etc ...). Une première version a atterri ce matin dans Git~master après de dures nuits de labeur!
