@hiramfromthechi it's happening in non-finder processes simply by having images in folders on the local machine. "mediaanalysisd" etc.

@ephant i've met some "more autistic" people

home again, home again, jiggety jig

@Soy_Magnus no

i say again: please please please tell me people to follow. my TL needs more content!

i bulk followed like a thousand fedi people whose accounts i found in the "following" lists of other users who seemed cool. this is how i used twitter, i would add like a zillion people, then unfollow anyone later if i saw things i didn't like in my TL.

apparently mentally unstable people are extra common here; i got a lot of hate mail for even causing *follow requests*. imagine asking for consent being inappropriate.

all sorts of image classification shit phones home to Apple in macOS even if you don't use their photos app or icloud. it's insane how much nonconsensual, non-obvious network activity there is when using photos on a mac.

@Jain that's indeed me, but it's a weird angle of me and also i'm a little bit less fat now (i don't want to be elon-dadbod-shaped when i'm his age)

@buherator i also think it's funny that people defederated my instance when my spider/indexer (which i never had the attention span to finish) actually talks directly to instances via the normal unauthenticated http api.

@Jain ?

@cda @fribbledom you don't have to use it, you know?

@jonn @fribbledom moxie doesn't work there anymore

note that i do not use icloud, do not use photos.app, and have all icloud/itunes domains blocked. for some reason mediaanalysisd is still phoning home to apple. "privacy is a human right" my shiny metal ass.

so glad that apple writes documentation for the processes that come with macosX

oh hey cool waiting on starting a task while i wait for a single threaded gnu autoconf configure to complete on a $15k supercomputer. this is a reasonable and effective use of time, gnu, and i love and support your choices

@jessica@mk.absturztau.be i love 68k.news

@murdock i already follow you, but i am considering unfollowing you for your failure to comprehend simple instructions
