Takze uz konecne bude dobre.

Ibazeby zase nieco.

Lebo vsak, p. Fico si ide uz 4. Vladu, a super fasa chytry aj pracovity je, len mu to furt ktosi kazi. (A furt sa pride na to, ze ti co boli volakedy jeho favoriti a terazky uz nie su, ze kradli. Ale o tom po tom.)

@archos já už teď jen čekám na čerpadlo … v sobotu mi odešlo. Hned jsem objednal, ale z pochopitelných důvodu alza ještě nedovezla. Snad zítra 🤷‍♂️
Hasiči mají o dost důležitější práci než odčerpávat můj sklep.


Maybe Google shouldn't strip non-ascii characters when training AI



They should remake Jurassic Park but the moment of foreshadowing in the presentation-ride is "we used AI to fill in the gaps in the DNA samples"

I'm hungry as well...guess I'll have to eat the rich until they know what human rights and moral values are

mod_tls, the rustls based alternative to mod_ssl has its own repository again.

I hope this eases participation with maintainers and distributions and allows it to follow the API evolution of rustls in a better way.

I made an initial v0.13.0 release. Let me know if there is anything missing.

I've recently taken to adding a direction tag to benches in #OpenStreetMap. My convention is that the tag value corresponds to the direction of view.

Delighted to find that @vespucci_editor now shows (single) direction values, but wished I'd known about the whizzy direction tag gadget which uses the phone's compass yesterday. (It's a bit too clever if adding the values in retrospect.)

in reply to SK53

mapcomplete.org/benches allows you to add benches and has a specialized direction input module. And you can also easily add pictures with it


A ship from the past, oil on panel, 2018.

This was the culmination of years of reading about ecology, collapse, and low tech, + my experience sailing on historical ships 100 years old.

i'm having an issue where my SD card has become corrupted and Windows says it needs formatting. Any way i can recover the data without formatting it?
in reply to Justin Macleod

You might try cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_D… then.
Hard to be precise without knowing the problem; but if the allocation table's damaged the contents of the storage blocks on the thing might be retrievable
in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo Thanks I did. I think I made the problem worse, but I don't think it could have been fixed anyway. There was something wrong with the partition and the only options it seemed to be offering me were load backup or add partition. Neither worked but I think load broke it because it couldn't find any partitions to analyse when I tried it again.


Read another article about Amazon forcing their staff to work full time in the office.

It makes mention of "special circumstances" which is "having a sick kid" or "an emergency".

Ableism so entrenched that tech CEOs don't even pay lip service to disabled people.

in reply to Nick

Remember when companies were like we care about diversity and inclusion?

Then we had a massive disabling event which also forced us to work differently and forced mass remote working infrastructure.

Now were like "who needs that!". It's not even a conversation, the gains disabled people found from easier access to remote working is not even recognised.

Remote working like any ridged working practices isn't perfect, we need broad solidarity around flexible working and not just cos it benefits parents – and I'll add parent workers are my favourite people to work with cos they tend to have good boundaries around work and that helps me also.

possibly the most unnecessary audio-description commentary in the episode last night.
This is from Nightsleeper, a 6-part BBC thriller that started on Sunday.
in reply to Sean Randall

Should have put the description just after the boom so there's no look-ahead. I don't like things like that either.


My word, I woke up longing for my smoothie this morning and have just had it. Strawberry today, yummers! Silky pillow is being changed, adn I'll be curling up on it again as soon as it's ready.
in reply to Lulu Hartgen

we went to see some friends at the weekend and they have a massive beanbag chair.
Now we have great comfy reclining sofas with deliciously high baks and comfy headrests. I can put my feet up and enjoy a movie marathon no problem. But it's nice to try something different and I could really get behind one of those squishy seats.


I am going through an alarming phase of being recommended fanfiction where literally everyone is gay.
I'm struggling to stay awake so not reading long new stuff very much at the minute, but seriously, I have no objections to homosexual relationships in stories, but when they are literally everywhere, your storytelling gets lost in your agenda.
A well-written relationship is gender neutral, I suppose is my takeaway. I enjoy reading about the people - and even their genitals where that is interesting to the story. The fact that they have a certain set generally isn't.
in reply to Sean Randall

I couldn't agree with this more. I want to hear a story, not someone banging their agenda drums.
in reply to Sean Randall

So many people seam to like slash now a days, especially inthose HP fanfiction Facebook groups.


Please enjoy @pluralistic Cory Doctorow's fantastic presentation on taking back the internet from last month at #DEFCON32. Cory's takes are always thoughtful, provocative and it was his deshittification concept that helped inspire the DC32 theme. More videos from #defcon coming soon. As always, pass it on.

Morning all. Still feeling exhausted, but this will pass. Reading A Woman of Substance again, it's such a good book. have a great day.
in reply to Lulu Hartgen

me too. If I catalogued every reread people would have more to read about what I was reading than things to read themselves!

I'm still struggling to stay awake after work, but at least I'm getting through the workday. Not ideal, but improving. :)

in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo I'm so glad you're getting better, even if it's slower than you want it to be.

saw a video on "why we should go back to runes" and it was about a more phonetic writing. while I *do* support English going back to runes you uh you know that you don't need runes for that, right? you know that most languages using the Latin alphabet periodically update their orthography so that it doesn't stray too far from the phonemic, for example (hypothetically) if there's some sort of big shift in vowels


Really nice that #BigFinish offer their downloads in M4B format these days, as well as MP3. I just purchased three volumes of Sapphire and Steel, a favourite from my childhood that I never originally ended up finishing.
in reply to James Scholes

I haven't heard anyone mention that since ... Blimey. I was about 6 or 7 years old.

my recommendation is to get a gold medal from some kind of local hot shot. That can give the family a clue that maybe what you do has a relevance in the world 😁


I wonder what goes through the mind of the conductor who decides to close the door of the departing train just at the moment the delayed train on the other edge of the platform starts opening doors.
I mean the trains are scheduled next to each other for a purpose.
in reply to Ondřej Caletka

Probably nothing. I like Hanlon's razor, it makes my life a bit more positive:
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

in reply to Ondřej Caletka

Report it. If it was planned that way (say not to miss some other connection or timeslot down the train route), you'll learn it, if it was just conductor being arsehole, well, there next time they most likely won't be.


Something tells me I might not feel well enough to worktomorrow. At least there’s iOS Frotz to play and hundreds of stories to occupy my time. I haven’t played “counterfeit Monkey” in forever. Fun game for sure, and something that helps to keep my mind occupied on more happy things. I’m learning Inform 7 for a IF project I’m planning, so it’s good to get back into playing again. #InteractiveFiction #TextAdventures

I've also started writing in Inform7. That's a neat system! What are you using for an interpreter to test your game?
in reply to Kelly Sapergia

@kjsapergia I used TADS as a teaching tool for blind teens nearly 20 years ago. Inform is probably easier to grasp, but I'd played a lot of TADS games as a kid.
To see my own text and logic happening in front of me on my old DOS-based offline system was pretty magical in the 1990's.


“The shift from the Afro-Caribbean zombie to the U.S. zombie is clear: in Caribbean folklore, people are scared of becoming zombies, whereas in U.S. narratives, people are scared of zombies. This shift is significant because it maps the movement from the zombie as victim (Caribbean) to the zombie as an aggressive and terrifying monster who consumes human flesh (U.S.).

Six years ago I tried to list the biggest #curl installations.

Today all of them are much larger.

#curl
in reply to daniel:// stenberg://

I know Unity bundled curl ~6 years ago, and as far as I can tell it's still there (judging by the amount of "curl error"s thrown by UnityWebRequest that people complain about).

Unity's fallen out of favour lately, but I'd wager it has at least a few billion historical installations on mobile alone
