Together with other organisations we are currently blocking the Rogier metro station in Brussels as part of the ongoing #StopFossilSubsidies action.
€400 billion in subsidies was given to the fossil industry in the EU last year, which is about €1000 per EU citizen. (1/3)

There was a story that went around this week about movie studios' woes with "superfans."
A "superfan" is somebody who has attached their whole personality to hating an intellectual property they loved in their youth.

2 Monate Fahrverbot und 150 Tagessätze für den Todesfahrer von Andreas Mandalka. Das erscheint manchen wenig, die Geldstrafe ist aber fast ein halbes Jahreseinkommen. Nichts kann ein Menschenleben aufwiegen.
Artikel in den BNN ohne Zahlschranke, der auch den Autofahrer erwähnt, der in die Gedenkfaht gefahren ist: bnn.de/pforzheim/enzkreis/neuh…
If you are like me, you often need to type or copy and paste things over and over again. For example, I have a couple Zoom meetings I host. Even though I email the Zoom info to people, there is always somebody who calls me or emails me and asks for the Zoom info again. This used to be annoying, until I found out about the text substitution feature of Microsoft Word and Outlook. Note, I do not know if this feature works in the new version of Outlook. I have only tried this in Outlook Classic. The way this works is that whatever text you need to put in a Outlook email or Word document often, you create what Word or Outlook calls a building block with the text. As an example, I created a building block with my personal zoom room and called it pz. To do this, I did the following:
- I started a new email in Outlook.
- I copied the Zoom info from Zoom into the email.
- I selected all of the text containing the Zoom info.
- I pressed Alt F3.
- A box came up asking me for the name of the building block. I typed pz. You can type whatever word or phrase you want.
- I pressed Enter.
Now, whenever I need to put this info into an email, I type pz followed by F3. Just like that, my Zoom info is in the body of the email.

Mandated wiretap interfaces and cryptographic backdoors are *expensive*, both in terms of money and, more importantly, exposure to risk. Worse, those burdens are borne inequitably.
Overall, almost no one is the subject of a lawful wiretap, even in places where wiretapping is an important investigative tool. Most people aren't suspects. But these mandates degrade security (and impose other costs) for *everyone*, the vast majority of whom will never be wiretapped.
Qué terible brutalidad, y qué sentimiento pone esta chica... bueno, ya abuela supongo. Hasta se le quiebra la voz cuando lo cuenta.
Mozilla's CEO doubles down on them being an advertising company now.
tl;dr: "LOL get fucked"
They've decided who their customers are, and it's not you, it's people who build and invest in surveillance advertising networks. But in a "respectful" way....

While Heinlein had a valid point in this authorial insert, he tiptoed around his own cognitive biases: if entertainers and athletes were inappropriate, WHO did he think deserved to be taken seriously? And why are entertainers and athletes disqualified? Consider President Zelenskyy of Ukraine, or President Vaclav Havel of Czecheslovakia—a comedian on one hand and a satirist on the other, both went on to be statesmen.
I'm amused even Heinlein drew a line on organ trade in The Cat Who Walked through Walls:
As for the foot itself, by invariant local custom "spare parts" (hands and feet and hearts and kidneys, etc.) were not bought or sold; there was only a service and handling charge billed with the cost of surgery.
Galahad confirmed this. "We do it that way to avoid a black market. I could show you planets where there is indeed a black market, where a matching liver might mean a matching murder--but not here. Lazarus himself set up this rule, more than a century ago. We buy and sell everything else... but we don't traffic in human beings or pieces of human beings."

Deutschland: "#Deutschlandticket nicht bezahlbar muss teurer werden!"
Portugal: "Landesweites Ticket, das sogar für Intercities gilt, für 20 Euro."
Es ist alles nur eine Frage des Wollens, finanzierbar wäre sowas auch bei uns.

Die Typen hinter ShiftPhone machen das ja aus religiöser Überzeugung: "ein Unternehmen, das komplett Gott gehört"
Wir waren gerade im Entscheidungsprozess zwischen FairPhone und ShiftPhone und sind überzeugte Atheist*innen und unterstützen daher nicht gerne wissentlich Unternehmen, die Gott gehören. (Mag für manche meiner Followys ein Pro-Argument sein, für uns spricht es total dagegen.)
Ich habe mal über Van Halen gelesen, dass sie am Ende ihrer Sicherheitsmassnahmen für Konzertaufbauten die Forderung erhoben, backstage nur braune (oder ohne) M&Ms in einer Schale haben zu wollen. Das klingt erstmal nach bizarrer Superstarattitüde, hatte aber denselben Grund: wer dies nicht erfüllt hat, hat wohl auch den Rest nicht gelesen, und alles muss überprüft werden.

Proč jsem přešel z #Windows k #EndeavourOS? Opouštím i další služby Microsoftu 🐧

V článku mi chybí zmínka o Wine, zejména jako možnost pro hráče.
Je tam i jedna nepřesnost, "v EndeavourOS si můžete vybrat prostředí podle sebe během instalace" a to prý v jiných distribucích nejde. Samozřejmě to jde, to nabízí i klasický Debian. Ubuntu jsem sice dlouho neinstaloval, ale divil bych se. Každopádně každý takový článek vítám, Windows je otroctví.

A nebo v Debianu malinké ISO jako netinstall a tam se dá během instalace taky zvolit desktop 🙂

Ale to není pak úplně instalace pro nováčky přecházející z Win, jelikož uživatel skončí s docela malým OS, kde se část musí eventuelně ještě doinstalovat (pokud se to ručně nevybere v průběhu instalace). Pro starší PC ale skvělá věc.
@Unreed @infoek
Na každé větší distribuci si člověk může nainstalovat jakýkoliv wm, které je v repozitáři. Takže z běžných všechny. Rozdíl mezi distry pro běžného uživatele je jen v tom, jak jednoduché to bude a pak jaká komunita kolem je. Z toho všeho vyplývá i to, jak zdatný uživatel musí k používání být. Pro BFU je jednodušší změnit distro, protože se mu líbí víc KDE než Gnome. Ve skutečnosti to jen značí, že neví jak si to má přehodit, když na to nemá klikátko.
Nejlepší je zenový Void Linux (když nepočítám esoterické Gentoo). Zkoušel jsem v něm mnoho DE (grafických prostředí). Přeinstalace defaultního xfce4 na KDE Plasma trvala asi 30 vteřin včetně přepnutí z lightdm na sddm. Fantastické! (samozřejmě trochu přeháním, ve skutečnosti to byla asi minuta, protože jsem musel hledat, jak se zapínají služby).
Ano, většina nováčků se řídí tím, jak to grafické prostředí vypadá, většina pokročilejších se řídí tím, jak vypadat může.

Wenn ich in die Suche einen RSS Feed von YouTube einfüge, dann bekomme ich folgende Meldung:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access this resource.Apache/2.4.41 (Ubuntu) Server at anonsys.net Port 443
So sieht die RSS Adresse aus
youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?c…
?
ist eine Sache, die an der Konfiguration des Webservers liegt. Siehe dieses Issue: github.com/friendica/friendica…
Mir ist nicht ganz klar, was ich da wo am Apache ändern kann?
Wenn ich deine andere Antwort richtig verstehe, gibt es dazu überhaupt eine sinnvolle Änderung? Oder lieber warten, bis sich da was an der Programmierung geändert hat?
Wenn ich nur die YouTube URL eingebe, wird das gefunden.
Jedoch wenn ich auf folgen gehe, erscheint derselbe Fehler.
I’ve been a fan of Stevie Wonder for as long as I can remember. That’s why I’m proud to share The Wonder of Stevie podcast from Higher Ground and @Questlove, which explores the five-year period starting from 1972 where Stevie released some of the most groundbreaking albums that transformed music.
I hope you'll take some time to listen on Audible or wherever you get your podcasts.

Our closed beta testers have finally gotten their hands on Thunderbird Appointment, and it seems like they like us! Check out this review from @ZDNet - and kudos to them for trying the self-hosted install as well!
I hope a better notification system for the event calender etc. Comes to.
Something like a dialog in the center of thunderbird screen would work.
Don't use the incoming e -mail notification bubble. Turned that off long ago.
Nice write-up over on @ZDNet for @thunderbird Appointment. We're so glad to see appreciation for this open source scheduling tool - and we're just getting started.
The current Mozilla seems to believe that there is "good" advertising and "bad" advertising, and that furthermore there is "good" ad tracking/ad surveillance and "bad" ad tracking/ad surveillance, and all they have to do is do a lot of the "good" advertising and "good" surveillance and somehow this will cause there to be less of the "bad" advertising and surveillance. As if there is a limit on how much advertising it is possible to fit in the world.
good point. I am mainly disappointed that management didn't read their own list archives—did Internet freedom people compromise with any of the other possible dystopia timelines?
Clipper Chip (US government) no, we have e2e encryption now
Codec patent cartel (huge IT companies) no, we have free media formats
DRM mandate "Fritz Chip" (US government + big media) no, we dodged this one too
Can't beat this stuff with compromises that leave supporters feeling creeped out
@dmarti About "free media formats" there a few things they botched, self inflicted.
1. EME to allow DRM. Not an uptick into the market share.
2. some initiative didn't work with Firefox without proprietary codec because one part of the company had to clue (won't give the name of the initiative)
I genuinely believe Mozilla thinks it's acting in the public interest by moving further into the ad-tech ecosystem, claiming that it's doing so in a privacy-protecting way.
But the history of ad-tech is that it swallows everything it touches.
Mozilla + ad-tech = ad-tech.
