@ConnyDuck it’s possible to add such clauses, e.g. as in ban military use, to most licenses such as the MIT license. It’s also possible to set conditions of use, and define it there. However, some people will argue that it isn’t considered ~free software~ if you do so, but I think having ethical boundaries for the use of code is more important than compliance with the „run code for any purpose“ part as defined by the FSF. There kinda should be like a license covering this.

hey @Mozilla is it normal for @firefox to connect to these 16 hosts when i merely launch it?
http://aus5.mozilla.org:443 http://blocklists.settings.services.mozilla.com:443
http://ciscobinary.openh264.org:80
http://detectportal.firefox.com:80
...
http://location.services.mozilla.com:443
http://normandy.cdn.mozilla.net:443
http://push.services.mozilla.com:443
http://redirector.gvt1.com:443
http://safebrowsing.googleapis.com:443
http://services.addons.mozilla.org:443
etc.

is there any easy way to make @firefox only connect to the hosts i actually want it to?

I am starting to consider playing with #Kubernetes, after years of doing docker/docker-compose for my personal needs. But it seems so... ugh, hard to get into.

One simple question I cannot find an answer to is: when defining a Container in a Pod (using Kubernetes YAML), is it possible to build an image on the machine running it? In docker-compose.yml I would do:

containername:
build: "https://git.example.org/some/repo.git"

...and bam! The image is built when `docker-compose up` is run.

Run your own social - How to run a small social network site for your friends https://runyourown.social/

In the wake of the poisoning of several “high-profile” #OpenPGP keys on the #SKS keyservers network, I have to say the following.

I have the utmost respect for the hackers and activists who 1) created OpenPGP in the first place, or an implementation of it; 2) have contributed or still contributes to the maintenance and evolution of OpenPGP as a whome (the standard itself, its implementations, or the various tools that interact with OpenPGP one way or another); 3) work hard to make OpenPGP better and easier to use.

About the shortcomings of the SKS network, Werner Koch single-handedly proposed the new Web Key Directory as an alternative key distribution method; Neal Walfield implemented a brand new trust model (trust-on-first-use) that completely removes the need for third-party certifications (we all know the web-of-trust never fulfilled its promises and is not a workable solution for most people, including knowledgeable users); Daniel Kahn Gillmor relentlessy advocated for better practices; Vincent Breitmoser wrote a whole new keyserver implementation and runs a public instance of it; Paul Wouters wrote the RFC to standardize the distribution of OpenPGP keys in the DNS (#DANE); Patrick Brunschwig and several others designed #Autocrypt, a method to automatically distribute keys in-band…

Don’t you dare claim that the OpenPGP community was sitting idlessly and could not be bothered to address the shortcomings of the SKS network! They are working on it, and again, they have my utmost respect.

On the other hand, I have the utmost contempt for the know-it-all who can barely conceal their glee at the sight of any bug impacting OpenPGP or anyone of its implementations (especially #GnuPG). That you can rejoice in the fall of a system instead of improving it tells me all I need to know about those people.
