Aww, poor kbin - no logo font or mascot yet! Someone could update this picture with Kibby!

@Aesculapius beautiful!
OT, but love your username. I have a tattoo of the Rod of Aesculapius/Asclepius. Do you happen to know Panacea??

It's not spying if you tell everyone what you are doing

FrostBolt , to Fediverse in Full, expanded list of all the data points and their purposes that Meta's Threads collect and link to user accounts. It's even more insane than you might've thought.

It's almost comically bad

How tf would a phone even have a way to provide that data to an app? Anyone know how exactly this works?

Apple and Android already have them, unless you didn't fill it in.

I don’t think my phone ever asked me about health data or religion. That’s why I find this so confusing.

fishos ,

Health data would be sourced from your fitness apps mostly. Many phones already have one built in(Fit with Google). Sleep trackers as well. Religion would be found on dating apps.

Not saying they specifically will use those to get your info, but you said you never told you phone those things, so I'm just suggesting some ways you actually did.

I don't think people realize how much data they leak daily.

Does this differ from what Meta likely already has on you through Facebook and/or Instagram? I’m not saying I disagree or anything, but is there anything here that isn’t already compromised by having spent more than a decade on Facebook or using Instagram?

Rabbithole OP ,

Probably not tbh, but it's another thing to actually see it there in a permissions list.

I'm pretty sure that none of this is really "news" to anyone. I posted it because it's a slightly more "in your face" view of what we already know.

JustSomeGuy , to Fediverse in So, I guess Threads is officially spyware... Not at all shocked, but, Jesus that's a lot of data they're wanting.

Pfffft. What's the drama? So you create a new insta account with no info and then pop it to Threads. They get nothing and you still get to see what's what.

Rekorse ,

Are you really so thick to think that your workaround solves the problem?

Chozo ,

Yeah, that doesn't actually work that way at all.

@Heresy_generator@kbin.social avatar

These are app permissions for the Threads app; so the app itself will collected all of the personal information from your phone that it possibly can and send it to Facebook regardless of how you limit the amount of data you choose to share with Instagram. The only way to get around this and still use the app would be to use a clean phone and never use it for anything that may generate or collect personal data.

fische_stix , to RedditMigration in Minecraft is leaving Reddit

This is what all responsible game, media, and other creators need to do. Keep the "....and find out" coming.

Zikeji , to RedditMigration in It's over...
@Zikeji@kbin.social avatar

I ran the script to delete all my posts and comments on Reddit overnight. When I logged in today I had a new message - an automated reminder I had setup, today was my 9th cakeday on Reddit. Kind of poetic.

@bellizziebub@kbin.social avatar

I wonder if we'll have a cake day on kbin too? Does Lemmy have it already?

Also, this is my first comment on kbin. Going to try being more active, than just lurking.

Aesculapius OP , to woodworking in Recipe Box - African Mahogany with Maple Accents
@Aesculapius@kbin.social avatar

More details:

  • The african mahogany has a continuous grain pattern all around the box.
  • It was made with simple miter joints and the splines you see on the image.
  • The bottom is also made with maple.
  • The inner walls are maple that were friction fit.
  • Finished with tung oil.
  • I had to make 2 jigs for this: a cross cut sled with an edge for the 45 degree cuts and a spline jig.
floppingfish ,

Sounds great. Could you please show pictures of the jigs?

Is this worth doing if I’m someone who mainly commented on cat photos and skincareAddiction for the last 5 years?

JustStarDust ,

Hey, have you found an alternative to skincare addiction here yet?

Pixiedust ,

I used Asianbeauty… Let me know if you find something similar!

@celerate@lemmy.world avatar

I’m still new to Lemmy. Is there a link to this power delete suite? I don’t see one in the post.

I might as well try to delete my content. I don’t plan on going back to Reddit as anything other than anonymous.

@Kill_joy@kbin.social avatar

Welcome to the fediverse friend. Might take a week or two to figure out, and the bugs are still being sorted, but boy is it a nice change of scenery. And once the apps come it'll feel like home again.

I heard allegations that reddit was restoring deleted content to try and maintain the value of the site.

So far I just know it as hearsay though.

Kill_joy OP ,
@Kill_joy@kbin.social avatar

Deleted comments yes, edited no :)

cyborganism , to RedditMigration in They stole the internet from the people and we have to take it back

Absolutely.

The internet has become basically a handful of sites on which people share these sites' publications It's become some kind of meta feedback loop.

Haus OP , to Fediverse in Wordcloud of active fediverse communities
@Haus@kbin.social avatar

An update from my post last week. Combined results from API calls to lemmy.world, beehaw.org, and sh.itjust.works, and generated a wordcloud representing the 100 communities with highest combined active users per month. Generated a few minutes ago.

Lells ,
@Lells@kbin.social avatar

not including calls to kbin.social? Curious how they factor in, since they seem to be getting pretty big.

Haus OP ,
@Haus@kbin.social avatar

AFAIK, Kbin's API is still offline.
