Talks for Debian Reunion Hamburg will be starting tomorrow! Head to hamburg-2022.mini.debconf.org/ to watch them! A schedule is linked there, too.


Another project to share: dbcli.com/

This is for everyone who prefers the #CLI over a GUI. The website lists #database clients for the CLI.

I personally use mycli mycli.net/ since some years. I used dbeaver.io/ before (for people that prefer GUI).

mycli has a nice autocompletion, configuration file and color support. You also can store favourite database queries. It also allows you to open the current query within vim :)




I thought I'll share interesting websites and projects I find along my way with you.

This one is the first:

github.com/evilsocket/opensnit…

#OpenSnitch is a GNU/Linux port of the #LittleSnitch application firewall.

It will show a dialog once a new connection is made. The user can decide whether it should be allowed or declined. As well as how long the decision should last. The decision can be defined based on IP, Port, Executable, etc.

in reply to Daniel Siepmann

Would you think a short list of those sites on my own website would make sense? Or would it be too cluttered?

I won't add a fancy UI and filter with cards or something like that. Just a short list of websites and projects with a short description.

Friendly suggestion: maybe messages posted on this account should always include the #debian hashtag so that toots are more discoverable in federated searches


#musl is a lightweight libc.

musl is a lightweight and standards compliant #C standard library implementation. musl uses Linux calls very closely, making it faster than more general standard libraries as better kernel-specific optimizations are made. musl is highly compatible with standards as well as with glibc, allowing for it to serve as a drop in replacement in many cases.

I'd knock the "programmers in 2022" back a couple of years. Centering a <div> in CSS is trivial today with Flexbox & Grid!

Still, punchline's the same...




#OtD 17 May 1972 10,000 schoolchildren in the UK walked out on strike in protest against corporal punishment. Within two years, London state schools banned corporal punishment. The rest of the country followed in 1987. libcom.org/history/timeline-uk…

Is this good or bad news? I hope this will not lead to any dependency anytime in the future.

In the end this money came from violating the rights of a lot of individuals, selling their data whereever possible to the highest bidder and driving surveillance capitalism further.

I do not want to judge over taking it or not, but I'd love to see a discussion about the freedom in and of Debian and colaborating with #gafam and the possible dangers arising from it.



JAXA is asking for help from ham radio operators for its upcoming OMOTENASHI lunar mission.
Part of the mission involves landing a tiny surface probe on the moon. Most of the crafts telemetry will be send in the 70cm band and JAXA Ham Radio Club would really appreciate your help in recording as much of it as possible.

@kalousekm@twitter.com @MJureka@twitter.com Válka přinesla úředníkům ÚPČR nové povinnosti. Letos a vloni jim nepřidali ani korunu k jejich platům. Často v 9. platové třídě mají tak málo, že mají nárok na sociální dávky. V této situaci výkřiky o vydírání a propouštění jsou trapným projevem arogance a sociálního kreténismu.
