God, I just dove into the Microsoft Defender flagging OpenSSL vulnerabilities fiasco. What a mess. Microsoft OneDrive shipped with version 1.1.1.0, Zoom (current version) shipped with 3.1.1.0, and a long tail of drivers, crapware and other apps with multiple vulnerable OpenSSL versions bundled. Is anyone exploiting this car crash in the wild? #openssl #DefenderXDR #zoom #vulnerability

Zoom fatigue is not burnout. It's boreout.
New study: when meetings are virtual,
we're not overwhelmed—we're
understimulated. Cardiac measures show
drowsiness, not stress.
The antidotes are common sense but not
common practice: fewer, shorter, more

Zgodnie z obietnicą złożoną na początku tego roku, popularna aplikacja do wideokonferencji Zoom jest już dostępna na Apple TV 4K.

Jej działanie jest ściśle powiązane z wersją dla iOS, ale Continuity Camera i odpowiedniemu stojakowi możemy korzystać m.in. z kamery w iPhonie, podczas prowadzenia rozmów, które widzimy na ekranie telewizora.

Konkurent Zooma, WebEx, zaprezentował swoją aplikację Apple TV miesiąc temu, ale nie jest ona jeszcze publicznie dostępna.

Continuity Camera działa z dowolnym iPhonem lub iPadem z systemem iOS 17 i umożliwia korzystanie z obrazu z kamery urządzenia na samym Apple TV.

Aktualizacje wszystkich wymaganych wersji Zoom czekają na Was w App Store.

#mozilla gaat er iets aan doen:

Training an AI like #ChatGPT uses an estimated 1.3 gigawatt hours — the amount of energy 120 U.S. homes use in a year (and that’s just what it took to train ChatGPT, not what it emits when you actually use it). A video call on #Zoom can emit up to 1,000 grams of #carbon per hour but switching to audio-only can reduce this by 96%.

On the vagaries of virtual mediation...

This morning I was virtually meditating with the rest of my group, through Zoom. At some point, the Zoom window went away.

At first, I thought it crashed, but the little camera light was still on.

I realized that one of my extensions had decided to open a page. So another window as to the front and hiding the Zoom tab.

What to do?

I just remained still until the end of the meditation.

Bei der Technikfolgenabschätzung fehlen da leider einige Aspekte. Was, wenn meine Daten schon vor meinem Ableben in die falschen Hände geraten? Dann habe ich Kriminellen einen voll gepackten Kompromatkoffer in die Hand gedrückt.

Meine digitale Nachbildung kann jederzeit für #Identitätsdiebstahl genutzt werden und für Straftaten missbraucht werden, für die ich dann verdächtigt werde.

[Problem gelöst: die Firefox-Version direkt von Mozilla als tar.bz2 Datei runtergeladen und mit der Mozilla Anleitung übers Terminal installiert. Jetzt funktionieren Zoom-Links wieder wie sie sollen!]

Nächstes Technik-Problem, bei dem ich Hilfe bräuchte bitte:
Seit kurzem lassen sich Zoom-Einladungslinks nicht mehr öffnen über Firefox, wenn man Linux hat, sprich der Link spricht den Zoom-Client nicht mehr an.
Habe mit unserer IT jetzt schon rausgefunden, dass das wohl ein Sicherheitsfeature von Snaps Firefox ist. Beim Ausprobieren über Google Chrome hat es nämlich wunderbar geklappt. Nun ist Google jetzt nicht unbedingt der Browser, über den ich standardmässig Uni-Dinge bearbeite, weil wegen der Daten.
Meine #Frage: Gibt es einen Firefox-Client von anderen Anbietern, die dieses Feature nicht haben? (Flatpak oder ähnliches?).
Bitte keine Belehrungen über Zoom, unsere Uni hat extra einen Datenschutz-Vertrag mit Zoom, bei dem entsprechende Einstellungen vorgenommen wurden, der Client ist entsprechend über die Uni-Accounts ansprechbar.
Es geht mir nur um die Problemlösung, da es vor 2 Wochen nämlich noch wunderbar über Firefox geklappt hat.

Since a few updates ago, Zoom (the video meeting app) has a memory leak when I'm screen sharing that hard locks or crashes my computer after a few minutes, depending on how much RAM I have free when I start the share.

I'm torn whether I want more for them to fix it ASAP or to never fix it.

It's a beautiful excuse to never have to screenshare but sometimes it would be convenient to screenshare.

(Might be a wayland issue, haven't tried on xorg, but again - remain broken or fix???)

• For desktop use mainly, but mobile too would be great.

• Services preferred, but I'm open to self-hosted options.

This is for occasional private one-on-one or small group video chats, not events etc. Thx in advance!
