@BorrisInABox I had no idea that had been commercialised to that extent.
Not that your average Joe has 200k floating about, but still.

Ich hab da mal ne Frage, z.B. an #Dresden #Follower oder solche an Flüssen wie #Elbe, #Rhein oder #Donau.

Wie werden Schiffe, wie z.B. die #Elbdampfer bei #Hochwasser gesichert?

Ist das nicht ne große Kraft, die auf die Landungsbrücken wirkt? Oder sind die so gebaut, dass sich Hochwasser nicht wesentlich auswirkt?

Ist in der Zeit eine Mannschaft an Bord um die Situation zu beobachten und notfalls ablegen zu können?

Getting chased by a stupid AI company for a (claimed) royalty free image on my blog that I obtained from pixabay.

I replaced it immediately. It was not important, Now using another royalty free image...

So yeah, just an attempt to scare people like me into putting up links to those villains. I won't do it.
in reply to daniel:// stenberg://

I'm thinking the real Claude AI (Anthropic) might be interested in knowing about that .wiki page so that they can take it down.
in reply to daniel:// stenberg://

I get crap like this all the time because of all the images on the #osspodcast site

I know a lot about copyright (or at least I think I do), so it was easy to just ignore the mails

I imagine a lot of normal people freak out and comply

Sadly there's no realistic recourse here. Even if they domain gets shut down, they'll just start again with a new one



Puvodni nekolikadenni zastavka se smrskla na dve hodiny na protazeni, ale i to nam stacilo na objev Polskeho Hubacka. Nase srdicko zaplesalo a jestli to ma i terasu na strese, tak je to uplna pecka.

A pytle s piskem nebyly potreba!

If tech companies enable some feature, _except_ in the EU, then that's an excellent indication that the feature is bad and should not have been built.

Like the ability to see your iPhone notifications on your mac or control your phone from your computer? Makes no sense.
in reply to Mikołaj Hołysz

@miki For that, they should have made the mechanism open a long time ago. If they had done that for all the relatively easy things, they may have gotten away with some things that are harder to separate from their hard integration.

Now they seem like they are monopoly seekers in all respects, instead of the truth, which is that the reasons are all of:
1. Laziness
2. Actual hard problems
3. Greed



“The Vance campaign provided the Wall Street Journal with a police report to prove their claims about cat-eating Haitians in Springfield. The WSJ spoke to the woman who filed it, who said she later found her cat alive and well in her basement. She also apologized to her Haitian neighbors.”

Truly incredible.

Would you believe it that I bought this mooncake cos it looks pretty? Yes I am sure you would believe it.

Ps: it's actually quite nice. White lotus filling and something else...lychee?



One of the key features of @matrix is interoperability.

It’s no wonder you can spot a @mhoye working from his #MNTReform from the #matrixconf!

Back when Windows 10 was first released and for several years after, Microsoft provided a tool allowing you to show and hide updates if there were updates that were causing problems, called wushowhide. This tool is hard to find and the platform it is built on is now deprecated, so I wrote this simple Windows program to hide any unwanted Windows updates. Simply run it, wait for it to list all your available updates, and type the numbers of the updates to hide, seperated by spaces.
Note: Due to how the Windows update API works, this program requires administrative privileges to run.

thanks a lot for this. There's a broken driver from HP here unable to update since months.


I just got an email from GitHub about a new issue for my password generator.

"Hey there!

We have detected a security vulnerability in your repository. Please contact us at https://github-scanner[.]com to get more information on how to fix this issue.

Best regards,
Github Security Team"

Uh huh. A security vulnerability for a password generator. Maybe, but I'm skeptical.

However, the issue no longer exists. Looks like GitHub took it down as spam.

I'm curious about that URL though.

#BBCNews live page on the aftermath of the #pager and walkie talkie attacks in #Lebanon bbc.co.uk/news/live/cwyl9048gx…

V #BBC Shaimaa Khalil:
The Japanese firm which apparently makes the walkie-talkies says production on that model stopped 10 years ago.

Icom describes the IC-V82 as a handheld radio which was exported to the Middle East from 2004 to 2014 and has not been shipped since then. The manufacturing of the batteries has also stopped, it says.

The company says it isn't possible to confirm whether the IC-V82s that exploded in yesterday's attacks were shipped directly from Icom, or via a distributor.

V #BBCNews Tom Bateman:
Antony Blinken said on Wednesday that the US was "still gathering the information" about the exploding pagers.

But behind the scenes, there will be another scramble in Washington to help protect Israel, this time from a potential response from Hezbollah.

Nevertheless, there is again a barely concealed sense of exasperation at the chance the attacks could amount to a significant miscalculation.



Annnnd the air quality monitoring array has been deployed at #MatrixConf! Can you guess which room the BarCamp is starting in? 😂

Tomorrow will be the real test of the venue's ventilation, as we're expecting about 4x the attendees that we have today.

We take the #HealthAndSafety of our community seriously and are requiring masks indoors this year. The data we collect will help us calibrate our approach with this venue when we return!

If you meet the prick owning 2-FMZ-865, tell them not to park on bus stops, especially not (1) when leaving your car there unattended and (2) when it's a terminus stop, where buses have to park for extended periods of time.


People are organising spontaneously around their topics of interest in typical Barcamp fashion.

And of course, the schedule is built using a Matrix widget @HarHarLinks has developed!

These results are not surprising considering how much pro-death penalty, pro-policing, war on drugs propaganda is pumped out for Singaporean consumption—over years, over decades.

@seanferrick Hi Sean, hope this reaches you! I just wanted to leave a huge thank you to you and your team at Trek Culture. The Ups And Downs you publish on the YouTube channel help me as a blind viewer of Star Trek immensely. I only recently got back into Trek at all, watching all through Discovery after season 5 had been fully published, and then moving on to Strange new Worlds, Picard, Prodigy, and finally Lower Decks. I had struggled with the Kelvin movies a lot and for many years couldn’t bring myself to watching the newer Star Trek stuff. But now that I’m back in, I also discovered the Trek Culture channel. And the way I watched Lower Decks was: I would watch an episode, then switch to YT and watch your Ups and downs for it. In my region, Lower Decks isn’t audio described for blind users, so I used your episodes as a substitute for that, telling me everything I missed during the watch of the episode. Thank you so much for doing these! They helped tremendously!
in reply to Marcus Herrmann

@marcus @seanferrick They totally do. Sean, who does the bulk of these Ups and Downs, verbalises the items perfectly, and citation observations, too. Take the Lower Decks episodes pertaining to the collectors. That list of items that Sean describes in the Ups and Downs for that episode, is brilliant! Sean, if you are indeed reading this, I’d love to come on your podcast and talk about this with you and Tom. :-)


We’re still setting things up at the venue, but #matrixconf has plenty of room for casual conversations. So pleased with the venue!


Gooooood morning, #MatrixConf! Can't wait to see you all in person over the next few days.

And if you can't make it, worry not -- we'll be live streaming the talks starting tomorrow! Visit our website later today for more info on that.



That’s precisely the kind of vibe we were going for the BarCamp day at the first-ever #matrixconf. Sweet and cozy!

Come to the bright side, we have… bretzels!

Neznáte někdo nějakou aplikaci "rodičovského dohledu" pro android, kde by šlo filtrovat jak příchozí tak odchozí hovory? Potřeboval bych udělat seznam povolených čísel, na která by se dalo vola, nebo ze kterých by se dalo přijímat hovory.
