This is today!

Preparing to cut over the firehose to a new relay in the next hour or so.
The popular firehose service at 'bsky.network' is finally going to be upgraded this coming Tuesday.

The disruption to PDS operators, firehose consumers, and jetstream users should be minimal, but read the full post for all the details.
Upcoming Relay Transition | Bluesky
In coming days we are finally going to transition the bsky.network firehose endpoint to a newer relay implementation. This should not have a significant impact on most consumers.

just published a fix for a bug in Tap that was causing over-fetching of repos when filtering based on collection

if you're using Tap, strongly encourage upgrading (to v0.1.4)!

you can upgrade to the latest by pulling ghcr.io/bluesky-social/indigo/tap:latest
From what I saw it was doing it every rev change on a small test of just watching my repo. Was finding the matching call in PDS logs and inside of tap. Writing up a bit more details on that GitHub thread as well.

If you store your BitLocker key with Microsoft, Microsoft can and will hand the key over to law enforcement in response to valid court orders. www.forbes.com/sites/thomas...
Microsoft Gave FBI BitLocker Encryption Keys, Exposing Privacy Flaw
The tech giant said providing encryption keys was a standard response to a court order. But companies like Apple and Meta set up their systems so such a privacy violation isn’t possible.

Es geht noch nicht mal richtig los und die anderen stellen schon dumme Fragen, 100% wird das alles noch beantwortet. Abwarten und die erstmal machen lassen ist schwierig, oder? Oo

DuckDuckGo hat aktuell eine Umfrage, ob man eher Team "Yes AI" ist oder eher Team "No AI". Wäre cool, wenn ihr eure Meinung da lasst, ist nur ein Klick und zementiert hoffentlich, dass wir das nicht wollen. Aktuell sind 94 % "NO AI", love it.
