Losing half your money in divorce and still becoming the richest person in the world again proves we can take 90% of their wealth and they'd still be fine.

in reply to Hubert Figuière

They have instructions on this page connect.mozilla.org/t5/discuss… about how to use a custom URL which can point locally (instead of using online services); it mentions going to about:config and setting `browser.ml.chat.provider` to `localhost:8080/?q=` or whatever.

*If* they're even going to ship something like this, then they really should have something that's local *first* and actually open source and *also* not require a workaround hack and setting it up yourself.

I'm disappointed.





Liebe Mitstreiter*innen,

die #Bezahlkarte für #Geflüchtete halten wir u.a. für diskriminierend, entmündigend und verfassungswidrig - das haben wir schon öfter gesagt.

Auf dem Treffen zwischen Bundeskanzler und Ministerpräsident*innen letzte Woche wurden neue Details verhandelt, z.B. eine Bargeldobergrenze von 50 €. Gegen all das wendet sich diese #Petition des Flüchtlingsrat Berlin - wie wir Teil der Kampagne gegen die Bezahlkarte:

Sad news! The Living Computers Museum in Seattle is dead, and the Allen estate is auctioning off the vintage items. geekwire.com/2024/seattles-liv… They closed their physical doors near the start of the pandemic, but I had always hoped they might reopen.

I bought two vintage speech synthesizers on eBay, an Echo II card (for an Apple II) and a DECtalk Express, specifically to donate them to the museum. Now I guess they'll go to some rich collector who likely won't know what to do with them.

Holy shit. For all of Apple’s greenwashing, they are flagrantly ignoring federal hazardous materials regulations and literally pumping unabated toxic waste into people’s homes near their factory.

🧵 In 2020, I nearly died from mysterious industrial chemical exposure at my apartment. Later, in 2023, I discovered my employer was dumping toxic waste into the apartment windows from their Skunkworks semiconductor fab next-door. I tipped off the US EPA, who sent their env cops to raid Apple's plant in Aug of 2023. The US EPA finally released the report of their enforcement inspections & sent me a copy on Friday. 💀 ⬇️

I'm sure you know how "127.0.1" actually can become a valid address, but if you missed that, here's an old blog post of mine explaining the fun and games with numerical IPv4 addresses:

@p my blog post explains how it works. This is probably one of the smallest "dotless" numbers you can actually curl on the public web.
@p
in reply to daniel:// stenberg://

@p they also have 1.0.0.1, that's a bit smaller, but i don't think it gets smaller than that
@p
in reply to ‏ ‎lexi ‮

@p wait, they do! 1.0.0.0 exists (allbeit a cloudflare error), and 0.0.0.0/8 doesn't exist, so 16777216 is objectively the smallest possible IP!

Truly worth it. I'm actually about to sell my Switch and its games (and I already gave away my Xbox after deleting my account - considering selling them but after playing with the discs 🦜).

Being able to play games from anywhere is one of the very very few ways to fight off platform enclosure and allows me to directly support independent game makers (by getting their work on Itch, GoG, Humble Bumble or Steam itself).

It's not praise for Valve. It's an acknowledgement of options and being more optimistic, we need concrete ones.

Open source is getting stronger in Luxembourg. There is also the "The LibreOffice Conference 2024 will take place from the 10 to the 12 October 2024 in Belval, Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg and will be preceded by an open day for the LibreOffice community member meetings on 9 October 2024."

If you're wondering what the gambling gate news stuff is being used to cover. It's this.

"Tories instruct lawyers to fight release of Universal Credit documents ahead of election"

And remember the UK has the lowest welfare benefits of any European country. Universal credit is already spec'd to be punitive. Cutting it only punches down on the weakest and most vulnerable in our society.

Mich würde mal interessieren wieviel Zeit Fuß- und Radverkehr verloren geht durch autogerechte Infrastruktur, #Bettelampel|n und Umwege. Deren Stau ist mir wurst, solange sie danach ihre scheiß Laune nicht an uns rauslassen. Die haben das Elend selbst gewählt.

Si trabajáis por cuenta propia y en algún momento habéis fantaseado con dejar la gran ciudad y mudaros a Soria a comer torreznos, este es el momento.

Acaban de sacar una ayuda por la que si os mudáis a Castilla y León, os dan 6000 euros porque sí.

Más 2000 euros más si es a un pueblo de menos de 2000 habitantes a más de 15km de la capital (como mi pueblo y tantos otros).

Mas 2000 más si tenéis menos de 35 años.

Y bueno, estoy hablando de pueblos, pero la ayuda también es para capitales de provincia, que siempre tienen más servicios. Vivir en un pueblo de menos de 200 habitantes (la mayoría de Soria son así) no es para todo el mundo.

A mi por ejemplo me parecería terrorífico vivir en un sitio así. dicho lo cual, cada uno con sus preferencias.
