This looks like a cool project.

"The Open Book aims to be a simple device that anyone with a soldering iron can build for themselves. The Open Book should be comprehensible: the reader should be able to look at it and understand, at least in broad strokes, how it works. It should be extensible, so that a reader with different needs can write code and add accessories that make the book work for them."

Proud of how the server architecture of mastodon.social and the code of Mastodon is keeping up with the load, but wishing for this to transform into new Mastodon servers springing up.

If you were considering starting a Mastodon server, right now would be a pretty good time. Anyone can do it from source, see docs:

There are also hosting providers (not affiliated with me) which are super easy to work with without technical knowledge, like masto.host and hostdon.jp

Holy shit, Samsung Smart TVs straight up send "snippets" of things that you watch back home to "to provide you with customized Smart TV experiences".

https://www.samsung.com/us/account/privacy-policy/

Search that page for the text: "Your Smart TV transfers video snippets or TV tuner information in order to determine the programs watched."

1) എല്ലാ മാസവും 500 രൂപയുടെയെങ്കിലും പുസ്തകം വാങ്ങുക. വാങ്ങിയതു തന്നെ വായിക്കണമെന്നില്ല. അല്ലാണ്ടൊത്തിരി വായിക്കുന്നുണ്ടു്. (ആന്റിലൈബ്രറിയിലേക്ക് സ്വരുക്കൂട്ടിയേക്കാം)
2) ദിവസം മുഴുവൻ കുത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നതിനാൽ സ്വതേ മെലിഞ്ഞിട്ടാണെങ്കിലും കുടവയറിന്റെ സാന്നിദ്ധ്യം തിരിച്ചറിഞ്ഞിട്ടുണ്ടു്‌. അതൊഴിവാക്കുക.
3) ഇടക്കാലത്തു മുടങ്ങിപ്പോയ രാവിലെ 4 മണിക്കെഴുന്നേക്കലും എക്സർസൈസും പുനരാരംഭിക്കുക.
4) എല്ലാ ദിവസവും മുൻകൂർ പ്ലാൻ ചെയ്യുക. നടപ്പാക്കുക.
5) മനസ്സിനെ വരുതിയിലാക്കാൻ ശ്രമിക്കുന്നതു തുടരുക.

ലോകത്തിൽ എന്തു നടന്നാലും അതിനെക്കുറിച്ചാലോചിച്ചു ടെൻഷൻ അടിക്കാൻ മലയാളികളോളം മറ്റാരുണ്ട് 😄

#Tiktok is:
- Sending your searches to Facebook.
- Sending your watched videos and usage time to Appsflyer partners.
- Fingerprints the hardware of the person watching the shared video on both web browser and mobile app using canvas leak and audio API.
- Embeds sharer ID into shared video URLs, hides it via URL shortening.
- And more!

Since they do not ask for consent they're in violation of multiple EU privacy laws. ​
