Have you ever wondered what happens in your database when #django does its thing? I loved this talk from Karen Jex, now in blog form... highly recommended: karenjex.blogspot.com/2025/05/…
TIL that sometimes #git repositories can have bad commits that don't fsck, but there's a workaround to let you clone them: gitlab.freedesktop.org/cairo/c…

would you like a pillow that says something like “curl is quality software and the maintainers work hard to make it so”? I understand the sentiment that you have many inappropriate demands on your time and attention, but I think your pillows should recognize the quality of your contributions.
So, I'm about to try Slint! Thanks to @JessDail for reminding me about it. Except this time I'm going to try it in a VM because I do not want a repeat of the Fedora incident from a week ago. Ugh.

New in Foobar2000 for Mac V2.25 preview: "Added keyboard shortcut mapping functionality."
Yeeees!!!! This is what I've been waiting for for ages. The Mac version received everything else I used, and behaves very similarly and runs just as quickly as the Windows version, but literal 0 support for hotkeys was a dealbreaker. It goes without saying that, like the Windows version you need to go in and set up the keys yourself and at least for this initial preview there is absolutely no default hotkeys defined where the Windows one at least has some menu items configured. It also currently doesn't support global shortcuts or hotkeys without a modifier so sadly still no space to play or pause for me. Even then this is a huge improvement and I can actually see myself using this as my default player now also on Mac. You can download from here
@Mew✨🥰 @Pitermach It cooperates fine with upmpdcli and bubble upnp from my limited testing so far. I like it verry much really. Peter, the Foobar 2000 developer is a genius. The fact he is working on these things 25 + years and is still passionate is more than amazing.

Did you see this? It's an artist's conception of how gravity from the tiny moon Daphnis creates ripples in Saturn's rings - created by Kevin Gill of NASA.
This image was pretty popular here, and elsewhere on the web - but people often don't come out and say from the start that it's not a photo. The actual photos are less beautiful but... hey, they're real! And the ripples look different in the photos. Let's take a look.
This 2005 photo, taken by the Cassini probe, was the first time anyone actually saw Saturn's moon Daphnis! It's only 8 kilometers across.
This gap in Saturn's A ring was first discovered by Voyager, and it was named the Keeler Gap. It's 35 kilometers wide. I guess this gap let people guess the existence of a moon, and later the ripples in the A ring let people guess where the moon must be! I don't really know the history here.

#PSA Heads up: Soundcloud will use your content to train AI
ETA: Lovely news! The change to SoundCloud's terms of service happened in February 2024; they've been stealing your intellectual property for a whole-ass year.
@manchicken not particularly in this context, no. Since a while back I do send out a monthly email on the libcurl mailing list titled "Help us out in the curl project!" which tend to mention different things. Here's the latest one I sent:

Cyprus will participate in this year’s online International Low-Vision Song Contest on May 16, with the entry Pyxida, performed by Nicoletta Livadioti and Nikos Demetriou. The public is being encouraged to cast their votes to support the Cypriot duo.
Jan Gampe took things to the next level by actually making this cross-stitch out of the pattern I previously posted online. The flowers really gave it an extra level of charm I think.

Z Trilium Notes jsem zatím nadšený a vypadá to, že bude dalším kandidátem na @oscloud – ale pozor, jde o nástroj primárně pro jednoho uživatele, takže instalace bude jen na vyžádání pro vážné zájemce.
🔍 Co je TriliumNext? Open source aplikace pro správu poznámek a osobní znalostní bázi – běží v prohlížeči, ale instaluje se jako vlastní server.
Nabízí: 👉🏻 hierarchii a klonování poznámek (stejná poznámka může být na víc místech) 👉🏻 šablony (např. denní poznámky, TODO, trackery) 👉🏻 podporu skriptů 👉🏻 vlastní HTML/JS widgety (grafy, trackery, dashboardy) 👉🏻 vyhledávání, štítky, připnutí, historii změn 👉🏻 šifrování poznámek a export do ZIPu
💡 Dá se použít jako deník, osobní wiki, plánovač projektů, nástroj pro sledování návyků nebo třeba tréninkový deník.
🛠️ Je to trochu pro „fajnšmekry“ – Trilium má své specifika a chvíli trvá, než ho člověk dostane do ruky. Ale stojí to za to. 💪🏻
