Es indudable que nos estamos echando unas risas viendo nuestros cambios físicos. Pero más se están riendo los gestores de la 'app'. ¿El motivo? FaceApp es una aplicación gratuita, pero se alimenta de los cientos de anuncios y los millones de datos que autorizamos a la aplicación y que son oro puro para muchas, muchísimas empresas, y también para sus algoritmos.

Interesting use of data. What pictures tourists post compared to what locals take pictures of. https://www.flickr.com/photos/walkingsf/albums/72157624209158632/?utm_medium=website&utm_source=archdaily.com

If you want to view your #Mastodon archive, there are a few tools:

- A python script that produces a web page with all your posts, with media.

- A JavaScript-based HTML page that lets you load the JSON files and shows you some nice stats about your posts, as well as a timeline, but without media

Me da pena ver a F-droid sin poder actualizar muchas apps importantes, con graves problemas de seguridad. Imagino que no tienen gente suficiente para ayudarlos, y esto puede ocasionar que mucha gente termine dejando F-droid y optando por descargar desde el repositorio de Github u otros directamente los apk.
Ejemplo: aún sin actualización para Fennec/Firefox (al menos está desde hace varios días en preparación).

Do you feel that the games you play provide you with *the proper amount of amusement?*

I often don't know what my expectations are until they're not met.

Hey you, photographers!
I'm looking for a new camera, i usually take landscapes pics, and i love picking details even from long distance.
I'm excluding the reflex type, i'm more for the bridge.
I prepared some choices, what do you suggests?

Landlords are already requiring people to use apps to unlock building front doors and to pay rent. Legal tender laws only apply to debts, not to things agreed to in advance like rent.

So I suspect we'll end up with landlords demanding rent in Libra.

@ghostdancer true :) I need a t-shirt "step aside coffee - this is a job for beer"
