This vacuum robot does something nefarious. When it does not get the chance to phone home to spew out all the data of your house, the mapping of all the places it has cleaned, in the privacy of your home, without your specific explicit consent, it bricks itself!
Go read about it here, be amazed at what this programmer has done, to make his robot work, without phoning home again.
The image shows a close-up view of a circuit board, likely from a robotic device. It has a green background with many components and wiring. There are several black and brown rectangular chips, alongside various resistors, capacitors, and other electronic components. Wires and connections are visible, forming a complex network. Text on the board reads, "ROBOT VACUUM" and the website address "hackaday.com/2023."

Today's popular browser engines have deep roots in KHTML, which was originally built for the open-source software KDE. I guess we all own a big thank you to the KDE project.
This is the timeline of browser engine: KHTML (1998, built for KDE's Konqueror), forked by Apple to create WebKit (2001), which was used to build Chromium (2008), which then forked WebKit to create Blink (2013).
All you do on this account is praise large mutlinational corporations for their attempt to control and steer open and free software to serve their interests.
KDE-Plasma is responsible for greenwashing #telemetry (for the users' benefit always) in #linux when most people got into linux to insure that no such spying goes on in their systems

As a side note, do I would love to #blur_my_shell, but it visibely reduces smoothness of my desktop (240Hz refresh rate), is it fault of my configuration, or common thing with the extension? I got addicted to high refresh rate and cant now go any lower ;-;
All you #Mastodon sysadmins who upgraded to Mastodon 4.3.0: Have you noticed that after you dutifully upgraded the #Yarn dependency to version 4, a message like this scrolled by:
$ yarn install --immutable<br></br>➤ YN0065: Yarn will periodically gather anonymous telemetry: https://yarnpkg.com/advanced/telemetry<br></br>➤ YN0065: Run yarn config set --home enableTelemetry 0 to disable<br></br>
I for one almost missed this. You may want to do what I did (as user mastodon in /home/mastodon/live):
yarn config set --home enableTelemetry 0<br></br>
I'm sure the Yarn people think their telemetry is perfectly harmless, but I hope we all agree that telemetry should not be used in the fediverse.
Linux users don't customize their systems all that much?! ( tilvids.com )
