Hello. It largely depends on what band you are interested in.
For LW/MW/SW I'd recommend:
Software: HDSDR - hdsdr.de/ Tons of shortcuts, you can easily tune, input frequencies, adjust filters etc. Cannot do FM stereo, RDS decoding possible only with external software.
Hardware: I use Airspy HF+ Discovery and HF+ Dual Port. These have narrower bandwidth, but thei're nearly impossible to overload with strong signals. Great for both lower frequencies and broadcast FM. Won't work for DAB+ due to higher bandwidth requirements.
For DAB+ I use RTL-SDR blog V4 SDR and QT-DAB software. It's QT, so it has its ups and downs.
github.com/JvanKatwijk/qt-dab
I have no experience with the more expensive, high end SDRs.
FOR #FMDX, there's currently a great combination. TEF-6686/6687 chip-based receivers, and FM-DX Webserver. The radios aren't strictly SDRs, but they are DSP-powered. The Webserver is maybe 90% accessible, with some accessibility bugs still unresolved, but they are rather minor. You can tune using arrows, input frequencies, view RDS data / signal strength etc. As far as I know, the keyboard shortcuts are undocumented, so feel free to ask, if you need to.
FMDX Hub: fmdx.org/
FM-DX Webserver: github.com/noobishsvk/fm-dx-we…
FMDX server list: servers.fmdx.org/ You need to activate the "Server list" button first to browse servers.
My FM-DX Webserver 1: fmdx.praa.sk:39400/
My FM-DX Webserver 2: fmdx.praa.sk:40410/
Feel free to ask for more details
Server description: QTH: Spišská Nová Ves, SVK 🇸🇰, north side of the building RX: Headless TEF with FM-DX-Tuner firmware Antena: Iskra FM-50F. Currently v, variable azimuth. Note: I may occasionally lock to admin when I want to use the server myself.fmdx.praa.sk

230+ enviro groups have written a letter demanding a moratorium on Meta, OpenAI, crypto and Google's, supersized datacenter land/water/grid grab in the US.
While encouraging, it seems the locals are already bringing the squeeze:
"At least 16 datacenter projects, worth a combined $64bn, have been blocked or delayed due to local opposition to rising electricity costs."
Water protests too, are ramping up.

Trump before: "I'm OK releasing the full footage of us blowing up the boat."
Trump now: "I never said that! Fake news! You're a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE reporter!!" (Of course it was a woman.)
...Reporters--why, WHY, for the love of God WHY!!--do you not yet show up at every press briefing with a little video queued up on your phone, showing which Trump quote you're going to ask Trump about, so the VERY MOMENT he denies ever saying it, LIKE YOU SHOULD KNOW HE WILL, you can quickly say, "Here, Mr. President," & play his own words RIGHT THERE IN THE MOMENT with cameras on you? As opposed to offering some mealy-mouthed fact check later when no one is paying attention anymore. WHY in this age of instant videos & smart phones do NONE of you do this? WHY??
No wonder a senile old bat like Trump (can't remember what he said a day or so ago) continues to win the media war.
Yay! After 2 years, the left-side control of my reclining couch repaired itself!
Laziness totally pays off!
And so does thriftiness!
Two years ago, I spilled some drink onto the control. From that point forward, one of the buttons stopped working. I used a workaround by pressing two other buttons. I also looked for a replacement, but I decided they were too expensive.
I also opened the control to see if there was an easy fix, but there wasn't.
So I used the workaround all this time, but today I found that the button that did not work anymore works.
So if someone gets on your case to repair something, just say that you're giving it a good two years to see if it will repair itself. 

I think Wayland's great!
But, nuance:
I'm sad that color management doesn't work anymore.
My colorimeter is just sitting around, collecting dust. At least my monitors were pro-level sRGB "calibrated" at the factory (so they're not horribly off), and I don't print much. It'd still be nice to have color management in GNOME for darktable again.
(And I'm still waiting on a release for for the Mutter 49 XWayland bug to be able to upgrade. A fix is in main; Mutter just needs a new release.)
Hey, if you're learning to record audio, make music, mix, all that stuff, please realize that in the year 2025 a good amount, if not most, of the advice you see on Youtube is bullshit. Some of it is exaggerated, some is misinformed, some is just totally wrong.
Like everything else it's been taken over by complete nonsense for clicks.

ExplorerRS is a map style for #OsmAnd I'm finally happy with. The pastel colors are similar to #Mapycom, which are very popular here. When you zoom out, the right amount of detail is removed. Really nice work! 👌

Unser erstes Community-Treffen, dem die Gründer von Little World, Oliver, Tim und Sean, zusammen mit Mitarbeitenden, Ehrenamtlichen und Nutzer:innen unserer Plattform zusammenkamen, fand am Samstag, 29. November 2025, in Aachen statt.
Das Treffen begann um 11 Uhr in der DigiChurch, einem Kirchengebäude, das heute als nicht-kirchlicher Co-Working-Space dient. Der Raum ist beeindruckend: Details der spätgotischen Architektur treffen auf eine typische Co-Working-Ausstattung. Das war natürlich eine Atmosphäre, die genau zu uns passt: Alt und Neu, Tradition und Innovation, Vielfalt und Gemeinschaft.
Beim Brunch hatten wir Zeit, uns kennenzulernen. Viele von uns kannten sich bisher gar nicht oder nur digital. Das Lachen und der Austausch waren überall spürbar. Es entstand ein Gefühl, das Little World ausmacht: Hier kommen Menschen zusammen, die normalerweise nie zusammenkommen. Perspektiven, die sonst nie ausgetauscht werden, begegnen sich auf Augenhöhe.
Um Austausch und Teilhabe für alle zu ermöglichen, hatten wir uns bewusst für ein hybrides Format entschieden. Dazu wechselten wir kurz vor 13 Uhr in den Meeting-Raum. Little World ist digital aus ganz Deutschland erreichbar. Deswegen war es selbstverständlich, auch remote Teilnehmende einzuladen, auch wenn sie beim Brunch nicht dabei sein konnten. Insgesamt waren wir 20 Menschen: 18 vor Ort in Aachen und 2 online zugeschaltet.
Der Nachmittag war voll mit Eindrücken und Austausch. Nach einem Rückblick auf alles, was wir 2025 gemeinsam geschafft haben, teilten die drei Gründer Oliver, Tim und Sean in einem Interview ihre persönlichen Erfahrungen und Motivation.
„Menschen zu treffen, die unsere Vision seit Monaten unterstützen, Teilnehmende, die teils seit drei Jahren mit dabei sind: Das, was wir digital sehen, hat sich hier real gezeigt. Und uns ganz viel Energie, Ideen und Anregungen für die Zukunft gegeben“, fasst Oliver den Tag zusammen.
Dann ging es richtig an die Arbeit – in zwei Gruppen mit klaren Fragestellungen:
Die erste Gruppe arbeitete hybrid und beschäftigte sich mit der Onboarding-Erfahrung. Warum? Weil genau der Start in etwas so Neues manchmal verwirrend sein kann: Was erwartet mich? Was soll ich machen? Und nicht immer klappt alles auf den ersten Versuch.
Die zweite Gruppe war komplett analog vor Ort und fokussierte sich auf Lernen und Weiterentwicklung. Welche Trainings, Ressourcen, Räume und Impulse brauchen Menschen, um auf ihrem Weg bei Little World neue Kompetenzen zu gewinnen? Der Grundgedanke: Eine vielfältige Gesellschaft braucht das Engagement aller und alle müssen mitgenommen werden.
Beide Teams präsentierten einander ihre Ergebnisse. Dabei kamen noch mehr Ideen für weitere Aspekte dazu! Das zeigt, wie viel Engagement und Leidenschaft in dieser Community stecken.
In der Check-out-Runde kurz vor 17 Uhr fielen immer wieder die Worte: Wirkung, Mitgestalten, Energie und Freude. Die Worte von Sean trafen es auf den Punkt: Diese Community ist in diesem Jahr wirklich in Bewegung geraten, und wir sehen mit Freude, wie viel Optimismus und Kraft sie mitbringt.
Wir werden diese Ideen und Impulse in konkrete Projekte umwandeln und freuen uns riesig auf die Zusammenarbeit in 2026. Vielen Dank an alle, die vor Ort und online für dieses wirkungsvolle Treffen dabei waren. Das werden wir wiederholen!
Zu #Livekit sind wir btw. erst anfang letztes Jahr gewechselt, weil Twilio Video in 2024 - was wir vorher verwendet haben - end-of-life angekündigt hat. Damals habe ich auch einen Vergleich ein paar der möglichen Optionen aufgestellt: blog.t1m.me/blog/video-call-cl…
Im Prinzip ist diese Komponente aber auch austauschbar!

I search for "Prometheus monitor AWS auto scaling servers" and get tons of links back, mostly about kubernetes, k8s, EKS.. etc
I add -kubernetes -k8s to the search and it drops to 2 search results.

We are living in the worst timeline.
Effective December 10, 2025, Aira calls will no longer be available on Envision glasses. Envision features will continue to function, with only Aira calling capabilities ending on that date.
Technology is evolving quickly, and we are continuing to explore integration and expansion of wearable options. Current hands-free alternatives we support:
Meta smart glasses, Agiga EchoVision (includes special benefits for Aira Explorers).

Přátelé Fediverse,
na mamutovo.cz nově zavádíme schvalování registrací.
Důvodem je zvýšená aktivita botů, které se v posledních dnech snaží hromadně zakládat účty.
Pro běžné uživatele se nic nemění – noví členové jsou vítáni, jen jejich registraci ručně potvrdíme.
Opatření je dočasné a zrušíme ho, jakmile se situace uklidní.
Díky za pochopení. ❤️
We could use a "reschedule all jobs" button in Pleroma that updates all the Oban jobs to be reschedule to attempt *now* instead of whatever the current retry/backoff time is, which after an unexpected outage could be a long time (days, even)

China cured Parkinson's. Returned motor control. Functionally cured. This probably means we can use a similar technique to repair any other neurological disorder caused by cell death.
But also why not anything else? If we can make these precursor stem cells replace something missing there's so much we could do with it
RE: newsie.social/@ProPublica/1156…
In reality, Trump, then a New Yorker, does not appear to have ever lived in either home, let alone used them as a principal residence. Instead, the two houses, which are next to his historic Mar-a-Lago estate, were used as investment properties and rented out, according to contemporaneous news accounts and an interview with his longtime real estate agent — exactly the sort of scenario his administration has pointed to as evidence of fraud.
