Dvě hodinky na kole, dnes to v té mlze, bylo spíš na pořádný čaj s rumem, možná asi jen ten rum.

Já mám celkem drahé přímo na silničku oblečení a stejně taky mrznu. Do kopce se člověk spotí a z kopce je pak zima. Na tělo mi bylo fajn, jen ty nohy. U mě nastává období, kdy budu více běhat a méně jezdit 😀😀
Stejně jsem si chtěl příští rok k padesátinám nedělit maraton v Praze. Tak to budu muset pořádně začít 🤷🏼‍♂️
in reply to Archos

Někde jsem tady viděl (možná u @Nevolte xChaose! ?), že se dělaj návleky na boty, aby do nich tolik nefučelo.

Každopádně maraton bych nedal ani autem, jsi borec :)

in reply to Schmaker

@schmaker
Jo ty mám, ale to je škoda peněz. Takhle, do hoďky jízdy jsou v pohodě. Díky, bude čtvrtý maraton, ale uvidím jak to půjde.
@xChaos
in reply to Schmaker

@schmaker návleky na boty mám akorát na běžky a nepamatuju se, že bych v nich jezdil na kole.

Nevhodnost cyklodresů pro zimní cyklistiku řeším tak, že se v podstatě oblékám zhruba jako na běžky, včetně funkčního prádla a rukavic. Vlastně mám komplet překryv výbavy na zimní/jarní/horskou cykloturistiku a na běžky. Do bot dvoje ponožky. Jezdil jsem takhle v zimě po Praze jako kurýr na cargokole (takový záskok, ne pravidelně)

S tou letní je to taky, že jestli budu chtít vyhrát SunTrip, tak možná o kalhotách stahujících svaly nohou budu muset uvažovat... já zase nejsem tak zarytý odpůrce úchyláren, třeba si to ještě užiju :-) (i když už jsem spíš dědek)

@xChaos
Na zimu mám cyklistikou bundu z Lidlu a je v pohodě. Ty návleky jsou o ničem. Jak jsou kovové kufry na botech, tak od nich to promrzá.
@schmaker
in reply to Archos

Za návleky jsem utratil nemálo peněz a všechno byla slepá cesta — nakonec jsem si pořídil zimní tretry a jsem za vodou (i dnes). Oblečení mám cca do nuly, zrovna v sobotu ráno mi dorazily čapáky 0–8 stupňů. Jasně, že to všechno stojí raketu, ale mě to baví a naprosto skvěle to funguje. Zvlášť tady je to nutnost. @xChaos @schmaker
in reply to Pavel Kout

@pavelkout Jj přesně, ty návleky je škoda peněz. Oblečení mám v pohodě, ono je i znát když se člověk obleče moc a nebo málo. Ono to chce vychytat. Teda aspoň u mě. Jinak budu budu muset koupit. To e nedá svítit :-)

@pavelkout @xChaos @schmaker
Jezdím málo, řeším to levně pomocí vrstev.
Tělo je v pohodě, v zimě, do kopce uberu abych se moc nepotil, větrání reguluji rozepínáním větrovky. Ale jezdím les, terén, pomalu.
Nohy je problém, beru slabší/tlustší merino, na to neprofuk kalhoty.
Tretry teď nemám, ale řešil jsem to teplou ponožkou na to nepromokavou ponožku co neprofoukne, používám spíše turistické tretry(na těch mých 3-4k ročně) kam ty 2 ponožky narvu ... pak návleky do -5°C ještě pomohou.
in reply to Archos

@schmaker jo tak to jo, já prostě nejezdím s nášlapy, jsem hodně oldschool městský cyklista/cykloturista.


why does glibc have a function called memfrob() that according to the man page "frobnicates a memory area" and appears to just xor a string by the fixed number 42 and nothing else
in reply to velzie

lots of complex software has test or example variables, functions, and constants. Chromium has a test permission called “frobulate” that doesn’t do anything but trickled its way to the Permissions-Policy header where people started to notice and cite it.

Have you ever heard of, or used, the word "extramural"? Simple yes or what the fuck will suffice, but if you feel like clarifying, that's also okay.

@menelion Yup. Commonly used in South Africa to denote activities outside school hours, but in the context I read it yesterday, it was talking about any strenuous outside activity as a result of heat warnings.



I'm ashamed and proud at the same time: Ereyesterday I made a huge leap for our main pet project from #PHP 5.6 to 8.3. Ashamed because well, 5.6 in 2024, and proud because I could do it after several months of weekend updates. There are some small errors still, but they are really small. And huge thanks to #A2Hosting who maintains those super mega old versions (yes, they have even 4.X still!), sometimes it's needed although I'm totally for everything new and against keeping legacy for years. Anyway, it's done and gosh, it's blazing fast now!
in reply to André Polykanine

Ещё и в языке, видимо, стало многое более удобным, так что в случае какого-нибудь багфикса не надо думать "бля, опять на этом 5.6 писать".

Ach, Mensch, #friedlicheRevolution, #FallDerMauer...manchmal kann ich's nicht mehr hören...

Den Fall der Mauer habe ich verschlafen. Wir lebten damals im #TalDerAhnungslosen...

Aber auch am Tag darauf sind wir nicht nach Berlin gefahren. Unser Ziel war es doch nicht in den Westen zu kommen, sondern zu sehen ob und wie bzw. was von der Utopie verwirklicht werden kann.

Doch allzuschnell traf der Konsumrausch aus dem #Osten auf den sich entfesselnden Kapitalismus aus dem #Westen und erstickte ganz schnell die keimenden Pflanzen.

... ja, es geht schon wieder 🙄

in reply to FediVerseExplorer

Da gabs Utopien? Echt?

Ich dachte die einzige Utopie waren Neckerman-Pauschalreisen und D-Mark Konsum? Von was Anderem habe ich damals nix mit bekommen, sorry.

Und ja, ich wollte als Wessi auch nicht nach Berlin zum feiern. Mir war nicht nach feiern zumute, jeder mit ein bissle Ahnung über die Kohlsche BRD ahnte doch was da kommt.
Bin dann 2 Jahre später nach Ostberlin und habe mir an Silvester dann die mittlerweile eingetroffene Misere angeschaut.

Today I saw a MAGA post about "your body, my choice" assaults on women.

- Half of the comments were saying nobody ever says that.

- The other half of the comments were saying it.

This is how MAGA operates, in a nutshell, and more broadly speaking, how all fascist movements operate. They simultaneously do the horrific thing while also denying any instance of the horrific thing.

Being a computer scientist, I plan to teach a ten-year-old some basic programming concepts. Given that I am blind and he is sighted, can anyone please suggest a platform that does not bore him to death by confining him to text-only while at the same time being accessible to me so that I can check what he's doing and where he needs help? #blind #accessibility #programming

Welcome to new people joining from 𝕏!

Remember, posts are called toots here, likes are called florps, retweeting is technically a cross-account posting exploit that they can't fix because we're using it, and our version of Grok is called Garfiald.

There's no algorithm here! Literally none. There is no computer code behind Mastodon. Each http response is typed out by hand by your server admin in real time. Sometimes this means you won't see replies from other servers, but that's ok, other servers are full of losers anyway.

People here make a point of using alt text — if you can't find an image you want to post, just post a picture of your cat and describe the correct image in the alt text. Nobody will notice, or at least nobody will mind.

The first thing you should do is make a pinned toot with your pronouns, political affiliation, and favourite Linux distribution. Cisgender people are welcome on Mastodon but aren't officially supported, so some features may not work properly.

But most importantly, have fun! Users found to be not having fun will be given a written warning in the first instance and banned if the behaviour continues.

My Fediverse Advice:

* Follow more people. No, even more people than that. Basically, if you find a real person and their posts are good follow 'em
* If you get a good reply to a post boost it. If you make a good reply to a post boost it. Replies are not visible in the feed unless you do this. As long as the post is an OK start to a conversation or interesting boost it.
* Write thoughtful replies. And if you put effort into a reply boost it or probably only the people tagged will see it.



today, I am sharing a story about me without going into many details, about the suffering, about the change, about healing. It's messily written, on a computer, in a notepad window, but it was an inspiration from a book.
Once, I was a young girl. I was living life as we all do. But attention was missing from my life, love was missing from my life. I was alone. I had my mental issues, and my disabilities, as I do today.
But there was one thing I had wrong, which I realised while I was reading the book I started reading yesterday.
the grasping mind.
the mind that, for all intends and purposes, wants more, craves more, grasps for money, power, wealth, even love. A mind that is not content with what it has. Such a mind, I understood, suffers. Not because it exists, not because it is there, but because of not appreciating, not being contend or satisfied with what it has.
I looked for attention, love, validation. These things never came to me. I craved them, I grasped for them. Money came, material wealth came, but not these things. Why?
Because craving them, grasping for them, is what caused the suffering. The suffering in me, which went away only when I let go of grasping, of craving, of desiring. then my mind learned to appreciate what it has. I understood that I didn't have to go through what I went through, while I grasped for these things. Through all the fakeness and the hardships my own mind and suffering deluded me to believe were true. I simply had to be patient, I had to learn to let go, I had to learn to appreciate. To me, material things were never an attachment, but people were, feelings were. They were not real, they were attachments. And when learns to let go of attachment, one realises who had true feelings, who wished to be there when you suffered, who stayed through the times when you want to express that you suffer, through the times you change, and then heal. through the times when you want to be you, to live, free from all the suffering, free from all the delusions your own mind puts you through, and when you want to change, when you can no longer bare it, the universe, life, destiny, however you wish to call it, will show you the way, whether through someone, or through something. Your guide will always be there. Your guide will make you aware, without lifting a finger, to what true, unconditional love is, and what attachment is. Because it's all you, they just show you what you have missed, what you have not considered.
The moral of my story is, do not seek, do not grasp, do not crave and desire. Let go of what the ego puts you through, do not harm yourself. Through harming one's self, we are able to harm others by harming our own selves, by suffering, by losing awareness, and by living in the delusional reality our mind sets for us. We can change our mind, it's not impossible. We are not born one way, we can change, we can develop, we can learn. I have accepted my past. Even if people hate or dislike me, it is their choice to do so. I have already forgiven myself, forgiven others. I only hope that if another I know goes through the same conclusions, we'll meet one day, and talk again, already changed, already having acknowledge suffering, let go of the grasping mind we once had. I hope this messily written story serves as someone's inspiration, because it could apply to money, to relationships, to people, to everything. thank you for reading, stay safe, be understanding and compassionate, love yourselves and others, the planet and the universe.

Almost screwed up my dedi because the curses interfaces for yes/no on an apt upgrade was not very accessible and I removed a kernel against a warning. Fortunately, it worked out.
in reply to James Scholes

Not sure, I don't remember how I set it up, but for some yes/no choices it presents the yes and no as two words surrounded by angle brackets, and you choose by tabbing around. I was SSH-ing and NVDA wasn't exactly sure where the cursor was.


Does anyone know about Helmholtz machines, or similar, and would be open to me asking a couple of questions?

I do experimental cognitive psychology and they're outside my expertise, and I think my questions are the type that are hard to answer through reading individual papers myself but should be simple for someone who is familiar with the higher level assumptions and norms of the field.

Thanks!

Just got on to the latest #DoctorWho Time War box set (after a catch up). Nowhere, Never is beautifully trippy. Loving it… but I’m now finding myself slightly confused about my own continuity.
in reply to Theta Sigma

Wow, that deep huh? Our continuity is here, right now, in the present. Wondering about the future, about something so impermanent is pointless, it leads to suffering. But your continuity is sure. Even if say, you believed in a next life and you might not remember, you continue existing. We are all connected on the biggest level, that which makes us humans, and then deeper beyond that. But many don't realise that. I am glad you are now, here, that you wrote this post. And I am glad many are here and now, even though many of the many do not realise the significance of living in the present. With that said, be afraid not of your continuity, but of missing even a single present moment. Ha! I'm sure The Doctor would approve of my speech now. ;)
in reply to Winter blue tardis🇧🇬🇭🇺

@tardis the problem with living in the present is that if you’re not entirely certain of your immediate past or the direction of your immediate future, and your memories and plans have somehow got confused between dream, reality, fiction and possibilities, then the “who I am right now” can be confused by the absence of a clear answer to whether that identity is even remotely continuous with the who I may have believed I was going to be in the process of becoming who I may be now.
in reply to Theta Sigma

Yeah, but then comes awareness. Also, if you feel nervous about it, accept it as a new adventure. Maybe a Doctor adventure. :) With a happy ending. Needless to say that, no matter where the continuity of life gets us to, we must be prepared like the Doctor :) But when awareness develops, and when we practice on that development that exists in us in waiting, we learn to distinguish between what is reality and what is fiction. I had, and still have, issues that blur reality for me. So being aware and knowing where reality is, knowing what is true is essential for one's existence. Also, that's a new adventure I took myself, though I did not watch the box set you did. Bring along some companions, a Tardis, and transform the nervousness into an adventure to remember friend.
in reply to Theta Sigma

Also, everything in this world is impermenant. We constantly change. And change is one thing that if we do not accept, we'd be really really stuck unfortunately. Change is an adventure too. Even this Tardis goes through changes. Do you know how many times I spun around in space? Unaware and broken? But there comes a time when if we embrace change, it just works. Needless to say I still think life is like a game. But the most serious one for the players. Like these lit RPG books we read. :D

#Europa necesita de inversiones para detener la caida del empleo

Para ello decidio imponer #aranceles a ¿todos? los #vehiculos que no se fabriquen en la #UnionEuropea lo que esta afectando de manera muy dispar a la #industria

Todas las fabricantes de #China deberan pagar al menos el doble y hasta 3 veces mas que la fabricante de #EEUU, #Tesla
1/x

in reply to josmit

Algunos articulos mencionan cifras, pero ninguno se atreve a poner toda la informacion sobre la mesa: ¿Cuantas ayudas reciben las marcas locales y cuanta reciben las extranjeras en sus paises de origen? ¿Reciben directa o indirectamente las locales (a traves de filiales o empresas mixtas) ayudas en los otros paises?

De esto NO SE HABLA UNA SOLA PALABRA en los medios

Lo ironico de esta medida que intenta ayudar a las fabricantes locales, ha sido que todas en su conjunto estan en contra... gracias a esto, #Volkswagen anuncio el cierre no de 2, sino de 3 plantas, #BMW y #MercedesBenz tambien tienen en sus planes reducir su produccion drasticamente, #Stellantis que habia llegado a acuerdos con la empresa asiatica #LeapMotor se estaria quedando sin nada entre las manos y arriesgando a tener que cerrar casi la mitad de su portafolios, porque las empresas chinas estan virando y bajandose de sus planes de inversiones para el viejo continente

in reply to josmit

Gracias a los aranceles, mas de 10 proyectos de fabricas que se estaban teniendo por seguras en #España, #Belgica, #Polonia, #Italia, #Francia, etc han sido detenidas por las empresas asiaticas, las que probablemente se concentren en #Turquia y otros paises con los cuales la #UE tiene acuerdos de Cero Aranceles

Con estos planes cayendose a las puertas del horno... mas de 1 millon de puestos de trabajo en la Comunidad Europea corren el riesgo de quedar en el paro de manera definitiva
