1/4 "V lete prešla našimi médiami takmer bez povšimnutia správa, na ktorej ma prekvapili dve veci. Prvou bol samotný obsah správy, druhou bol jej minimálny ohlas vo verejnej debate, nehovoriac o debate politickej.

Tou správou bolo, že podľa oficiálnych údajov Eurostatu sú na Slovensku najnižšie čisté platy v celej Európskej únii…"

Human composting should be a third option after burial and cremation.

My wife, Tui Davidson, spent her volunteer energy to provide a not-for-profit funeral service for Canberra. Five years later, they are a successful operation.

On Thursday, I was honoured and proud to attend her graduation from a social entrepreneur course called GRIST from Mill House Ventures. Earthly Remains is her human composting initiative and, as well as working with partners to develop the technology, she is lobbying the ACT government to create legislation to allow it, as 13 US states have done.

The GRIST program supported the creation of a short video which explains it better than I can.

She is also looking to collect data about community attitudes and would appreciate your input on a survey found at the website below.

This fun little test scene is using #SVG textPath elements to make an arching caterpillar, some bees, and a trail of ants coming out of an anthill. Except all the bugs are made out of #braille that spells out the type of bug it's making up. Using the Braille36 Tiger font and using Unicode Braille Pattern characters for the braille itself to be visifle and embossable. It's really fun reading the braille in a non-standard way around the paper! #Blind #TactileGraphics #BlindSVG
A leaf made out of grey outlines and a stem is in the center of the drawing. On top of the leaf, the braille characters spelling out "caterpillar" are arched mimicking the body posture of a caterpillar inching along. An anthill is at the bottom of the drawing, with a line of braille ants coming out of it and marching down the side and along the ground. Two braille bees are in the upper right and lower right areas of the drawing, flying in different angles.

I find myself really irked by the headline here. The problem is not a "simple website bug", the problem is that they wrote thousands of lines of code without ever thinking about what the trust boundaries are, or should be.

This is a massive design flaw. The idea that cars should be controllable from some mothership is bizarre (and not needed for app control - have a digital signature from the mobile device). The idea that cars are enrolled even if the user didn't set up an account is similarly broken. This isn't a "simple website bug" but a massive failure to consider the security implications of features.

If you want to, you can set your Mastodon account to automatically delete your own posts after a certain time period (for example posts older than 90 days). You can also set it to retain certain types of posts even after the period has elapsed.

There is a step-by-step guide about how to use this feature at:

➡️ fedi.tips/deleting-posts-autom…

The guide also answers lots of questions including why deletions sometimes get delayed, and whether auto-deletion stresses server resources.

Hello @Friendica Support I need your support please
I have a problem for a few weeks now which makes my server unstable , and makes Friendica inaccessible, the simplest and fastest solution is to restart the server.
I noticed that this problem also happens to me when I send friend requests

Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS
Friendica version 2024.08
mariadb Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.11.8-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using EditLine wrapper

As you can see from the screenshot there are many mysql processes , /usr/bin/mariadbd , and the CPU is at 100%

Some help please...

Thanks
Cheers

Anomaly ☑️

Hi @Michael Vogel
I tried to change my configuration /etc/mysql/my.cnf I added

[mysqld]

join_buffer_size = 2M
innodb_log_file_size = 1G
tmp_table_size = 512M
max_heap_table_size = 512M
wait_timeout = 60
max_connections = 500
skip-name-resolve
query_cache_size=64M
innodb_buffer_pool_size=4600M
key_buffer_size=1G
innodb_file_per_table=1
innodb_log_buffer_size=212M
innodb_buffer_pool_instances=5
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 1
innodb_flush_method = O_DIRECT
open_files_limit=40000
table_open_cache=2200
wait_timeout=28800
interactive_timeout=28800
max_connections=1000

This is the current configuration,I made small changes at a time, but the problem is the same (Bad Gateway Error 502), with the other configurations I had little RAM usage but the CPU was at 100% .

It could be an inefficient/Slow query? 🙄
