FT - In a laboratory outside Cambridge sits a remarkable “biological computer”. Its 200,000 human brain cells, grown in the lab, lie on silicon circuitry that communicates their synchronised electrical activity on a screen to the outside world. ft.com/content/713eab47-a1f1-4…

Inside the British lab growing a biological computer

Australian start-up Cortical Labs and UK’s bit.bio have built CL1 with the aim of creating ‘synthetic biological intelligence’

I just updated the list of weather stations used by #TinyWeatherForecastGermany , and it turns out my app now supports 6291 locations worldwide.

Time to update the advertising claim from "over 5000 locations worldwide" to > 6000 👍

#TinyWeatherForecastGermany delivers you a weather forecast on #android devices based on #opendata from the Germany's National Meteorological Service, @DeutscherWetterdienst .

It is a #floss app without any trackers.

It also includes weather warnings and a pollen forecast amongst other features.

You can get it at #IzzySoftRepo apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/ or at #fdroid .

You can visit the project homepage at #codeberg

Sur scène samedi, le groupe de rap punk Bob Vylan a appelé la foule à scander « Mort aux IDF », les forces de défense israéliennes. Peu après, le groupe de rappeurs nord-irlandais Kneecap a, lui, appelé à scander des insultes visant Keir Starmer.

Uz je to nejaky ten rok, co architekti z mjolk vytvorili interier libereckeho chicago burger baru kombinaci industrialu v art deco budove. Tenkrat se zdalo, ze to pojali jako satiru. Ale prijde mi, ze test casu ukazal, ze to je jeden z jejich nejviditelnejsich (jako chodi tam lidi) a i nejlepsich pocinu (jako je to fakt dobry).

Pamatuju si, jak sem sedaval na baru v plne hospode a akustickym efektem svitidel poslouchal lidi u stolu, jako by stali vedle me a rvali mi do ucha. Tohle muzete zazit porad. Berte to i jako varovani o cem se u stolu bavite.

Samotne chicago si proslo kontroverzni vlnou zdrazovani-zmensovanim i podstatne mene kontroverzni vlnou zdrazovani-zdrazovanim a plno je tam v podstate porad. Cena jidla lidi zas tak neovlivnuje.

Jestli tam bude beton a lampa i za deset let. Uvidime.

#lbc #liberec #jidlo #restaurace #burger

Na snímku je útulný interiér restaurace s dřevěnými stoly a židlemi, kolem kterých jsou rozestavěné kovové stoličky a stojanová tabule s nápisem „Thirsty Thursday“. Z prostoru nad stoly visí velké polokulovité stropní lampy, které společně s denním světlem pronikajícím velkými obloukovými okny vytvářejí teplou a klidnou atmosféru.

#wayback, a small project gluing together wayland components to turn Xwayland into a full X environment, is now published: github.com/kaniini/wayback

there's definitely a gazillion bugs, which will need work across the entire stack to solve.

however, unlike Xlibre, this is a sustainable path that is intended to reduce the number of X components in distributions.

it's a Wyse 5070 with the J5005 CPU with a 240GB SSD (WD Green M.2 2280 240GB)

4 slow cores, 4GB RAM

FreeBSD, nothing else running but Pleroma+Postgres+Nginx. Works great!

parkytowers.me.uk/thin/wyse/50…

edit: It doesn't have enough CPU to run mediaproxy preview; the image transcoding is too expensive for those old cores

@matt, a screenshot displaying turquoise background with three windows above it. There are two buttons in the corners of the screen: the top left button shows an icon of a paperclip and says "Workspace 1", the bottom left button has the XTerm logo (blue T overlaid on top of red X).

To the right of the middle, an XTerm window showing the output of a command listing video outputs and something else, visible are keywords "wl_output", "wl_compositor", "wl_seat" etc.

City council, the mayor, borough councils, borough mayors, #assnat, MNAs, MPs, #hoc, etc. have known this for a while... you'd think something/anything would've been said and done BEFORE June, right?

Right?

Nope, not in Montréal. Not in Québec.

#AudioMo 28:

When times were better, my partner and her family used to go to the Bronx zoo almost every weekend. I only did this a few times.

One such time, October 5, 2013, I recorded this from just outside the sea lion pool. ?Captured with a pair of Sound Professionals MS-BMC3 microphones on glasses and an Olympus LS14 recorder. The image is what I would consider quasi-binaural, best heard with headphones.

Question For all the corporate messages in support of the EAA, why does it take yet another accessibility legislative effort to get you to do what you say you are committed to doing? Yes, I'm glad we have the legislation but ask yourself why it was needed in the first place? Then too, why do those support messages not extend to your entire corporate portfolio? theideaplace.net/from-word-flu…

I agree, but a lot of this comes down not to the policies but to the people who make them. Laws can only do so much. Just to be clear, I am in favor of pushing the envelope by whatever means necessary. I also hold relatively moderate expectations as far as success goes. I feel we need to leave some space for humans to play a role, and not rely on policies only.
I sincerely hope EAA will help us move slightly bit more forward!

Google’s carbon emissions have soared by 51% since 2019

The company reported a 27% increase in year-on-year electricity consumption

Google is racing to buy clean energy to power its systems

theguardian.com/technology/202…

Google is an environmental terrorist, an ecocider of monumental proportions. Driven by relentless greed and that tech bro arrogance. There is no 'clean' energy or things you can buy, Google, to wash away your non-stop destruction of our environment.


Google’s emissions up 51% as AI electricity demand derails efforts to go green

Increase influenced by datacentre growth, with estimated power required by 2026 equalling that of Japan’s

A když jsme u toho, ještě jsem si v době, kdy schnulo lepidlo, schnula barva, schnul balzám a schnul lak, udělal zase o něco menší peněženku. Je v ní sedm karet a bankovky. Mám rád minimalismus. Viděl jsem ji kdesi na Youtube, střih je jednoduchý, vlastně je to celé z jednoho kusu usně.
