I want to extend a special thanks to opencube and fosstodon for giving me my first taste of the #fediverse.

So, it's come to my attention that when I upload a photo to Friendica, the exif data is not automatically stripped out of it, as had been my assumption. Is there some setting that I can change to correct this behaviour? Looks like I've been broadcasting my address with nearly every photo I've posted.
I can't put the genie back in the bottle, but I can at least stop broadcasting it.

Good to know that at least part of the email was truthful, even if only because of a Freudian slip.

Everything I search trying to fix it has to do with Google-hosted calendars not syncing with third-party apps. It annoys me that the assumption is that I'd not want to use anything other than Google Calendar.
Side note: the NextCloud calendar syncs perfectly with her Apple Calendar, but she doesn't like it.

Jonathan, you mentioned "plagiarism". That is what I was thinking of when I said "cheat". But are you talking about students who cheat by letting AI write their papers?
I guess AI already does stuff that would be considered cheating or plagiarism if a person did it.
Music may, or may not, be your thing, but your brain does not work like a computer. You are alive. There is a big difference.
I believe that people who do a lot of coding are more prone to believing in a parallel between thinking and coding. They may be mimicking computers more than the computers are mimicking them.

I've only seen viewing on iPhone (Libre Office viewer Lite). Never tried it though because of the data tracking (Identifiers, usage data, and diagnostics).

A hacky solution, but it works well enough.

To be honest though, I'm such a small node in a sea of much larger ones that I feel the risk is minimal.
I don't knowingly host infringing content, but it's essentially impossible to be sure.
Perhaps my hubris will bite me down the line. I suppose time will tell.
