Hi everyone, I am organising LOCO 2024, 1st International Workshop on Low Carbon Computing
It's hybrid and will be held 3 Dec 2024, in Glasgow (Scotland) and on line.
Please consider submitting, whether you're academic or not, and please spread the word.
I took time off work this afternoon and went through the @gnome european event/swag boxes to take inventory and recycle items that are no longer relevant.
I host two of these huge boxes in my house. 😁

Remember when Montréal was a cosmopolitan city? Yeah, not anymore.
Remember when anglophones believed they had nothing to fear from the CAQ? Yeah, not anymore.
There is something fundamentally wrong with a city that will erase Bonjour-Hi, Bonjour-Woof, Bonjour-Meow, etc. before it deals with OTHER graffiti... OR OTHER THINGS LIKE TRANSPORTATION, TRAFFIC, HOUSING, ETC.

Trojnásobný mistr světa, kapitán Československa. Zahrál si za Vancouver, trénoval Pittsburgh. Na olympiádě bral jako hráč stříbro, jako trenér zlatou medaili. Na Ivana Hlinku se ale vzpomíná především proto, jaký byl člověk, kamarád a parťák.Hokej.cz

We've been hearing an increasing number of reports of trans people's GPs refusing to prescribe their HRT to them - even if they have a letter from an NHS gender clinic requesting that they do. That's why we're created our new My GP is Refusing to Prescribe My HRT resource: transactual.org.uk/medical-tra…
Has your GP recently refused to prescribe you HRT? Let us know at tinyurl.com/TransActualHRT

Welcome to the RB family, Image Toolbox 🥳
What we thought to be non-RB turned out to be just non-deterministic. Luckily we know how to deal with that in most cases, though we'd prefer Google fixing the underlying issue 😉 (and yes, there is an issue open with them)

I get introduced to a lot of (to me) new apps during your "welcome to RB family" posts. A nice side-effect ^^.
Will try this one - I used Imagepipe up to now.

Edit:
Looks like Imagepipe needs less permissions, which jumped into my eyes in Neo Store ( apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/repo/co… )

Auf der #MakerFaire in #Hannover wird eine Studentin von mir ihren aktuellen Stand zur Erweiterung des #OpenBikeSensor präsentieren. In Zukunft soll auch die Messung von #Luftschadstoffe|n während der Fahrt mit dem #Fahrrad möglich sein, um Streckenabschnitte mit hoher Schadstoffbelastung für Radelnde zu identifizieren.
Kommt vorbei in der Niedersachsenhalle an Stand 3 - sie freut sich über Input. Am Samstag bin ich auch vor Ort.

Honestly, I'm really glad you kept it open and free to use instead of taking such an important thing and cashing in on it like some other softwares have done.
Thanks a lot!
Kinda funny, on friday I literally replaced curl in a codebase with.... curl.
Just a different interface to still use curl. 😅
OK. Then we should redraw the picture a bit to show that there are multiple kernels, multiple TCP/IP stacks, multiple TLS libraries, but only ONE libcurl.
Variety above and variety below, but one solid block in between, used by virtually everyone.
The funding of critical open-source projects of our everyday lives has becond increasingly important. The Sovereign Tech Fund has set out to improve the situation with various programs that assist these projects as @polexa explains.
We're thrilled being joined by @bagder who shares his experiences with maintaining the #curl project and the STF.
