Ich musste feststellen, dass es auch Musiker gibt, die bei der Erwähnung eines veganen Produktes ausrasten, aber nicht vor Freude. Und das nur, weil das Musikhaus Thomann, lt. Wikipedia „der umsatzstärkste Musikalienhändler weltweit“, eine vegane Konzertgitarre ins Sortiment aufgenommen und dies bei Facebook beworben hat. Und ich habe wie so oft den Fehler begangen, die Kommentare zu lesen.
Es zeigt sich schnell, dass Musiker in der Tat kreativer sind als Kommentierende, die unter einen Beitrag über Veganismus Sachen posten wie „Darauf erstmal ein Steak!“. Musiker schreiben „Als nächstes will ich ein Drumset das nur aus Knochen, Fell, Fleisch und Blut hergestellt wird!!“.
Generell ist die Ahnungslosigkeit allerdings genauso hoch wie bei anderen kontroversen Themen. Was denn an einer Gitarre nicht vegan sein könne, fragen einige. Nun, dass die Instrumente nicht aus Hack gemacht sind, dürfte klar sein. Dafür kommen z. B. Perlmutt-Einlagen, Knochen, Schellack und Leim mit tierischen Bestandteilen zum Einsatz. Die von einigen Kommentierenden erwähnten Saiten aus Katzendarm werden dagegen bei Konzertgitarren schon lange durch Nylon-Saiten ersetzt. Es fehlt also auch hier das Wissen, wo überall tierische Bestandteile verarbeitet werden. Es sei denn, es geht darum, einer vegan lebenden Person Heuchelei zu unterstellen, dann ist klar, dass ein Smartphone nicht vegan ist.
Ansonsten gibt es zur veganen Gitarre Kommentare wie „WTF? Are you serious?“, „Jetzt fangt bloß ned a no mit dem Scheiß da o!!!“, „Noch bescheuerter geht’s nicht mehr…“ und „Auch ein Baum ist ein Lebewesen…!! Aber okay, wer es braucht….“. Die Pflanzenversteher dürfen ja nicht fehlen, die zwar kein Problem damit haben, dass für ihr Essen leidensfähige Lebewesen getötet werden, aber Empathie für gefällte Bäume entwickeln.
Kommen wir zur Gitarre selbst. Bereits 2020 hatte der Berliner Gitarrenbauer Armin Hanika eine vegane Konzertgitarre für den American Guitar Shop, auch in Berlin ansässig, gebaut. Das Hanika Vegan Modell 50MF ist dort noch immer erhältlich. Und auch Thomann ist nicht erst gestern auf den Zug aufgesprungen, sondern bereits im September 2023 mit dem Modell Hanika H-Thomann KEF Vegan. Wenn ich mir die Arbeiten von Armin Hanika anschaue, habe ich keine Zweifel, dass die vegane Gitarre mit den herkömmlich gebauten Modellen mithalten kann. Leider gibt es bei beiden Shops keine Kundenbewertungen.
Ich finde es sehr gut, dass in vielen Bereichen mittlerweile tierische Inhaltsstoffe ersetzt werden, das Unverständnis einiger – online wie offline – ist jedoch immer groß. Was denn bitte an Weichspüler nicht vegan sein könne oder an Rotwein? Warum gibt es vegane Holzkohle? Müssen Veganer immer Fleischprodukte nachbauen? Das darf dann aber nicht „veganer Leberkäse“ heißen! Es ist noch ein sehr langer Weg bis zu der Erkenntnis, dass Veganismus kein Trend ist, keine Sekte oder Religion, sondern die Zukunft.
Dear @savetz, I'm digging the Ted Nelson's archive searching for images around flatbed scanners -the object-. I found only a couple of images and in general -maybe I'm doing wrong- its easier find examples than hardware. In general, looking for help and advice to find interesting manuals or texts about the early years of home scanners. 🤓
A couple weeks ago I gave a talk at @djangocon about the finances of the Django Software Foundation. I wanted to give folks a high-level understanding of our current financial situation, and then imagine a world where we had a substantially-larger budget.
Here's a written version of this talk, with annotated slides, and expanded notes:
This is really interesting. Do you know the name of the plot for the budget visualization? I'd like to make a similar one; doesn't look hard to draw but maybe there are tools?

it's is so ambitious that the 1964 Shinkansen 0 Series (ie the original Japanese "bullet train") had a max speed of 210 kph, with later model being faster.
@samloonie th railroad were not interested in it. That's why VIA was created and remained a band-aid by still using the same badly maintained trackage on why the heavy freight has priority.
This is the root cause of the poor service. That and the lack of courage and ambition from politicians to do anything about it.
Once this treaty is signed, the British Indian Ocean Territory will cease to exist. Various international bodies will update their records. In particular, the International Standard for Organization (ISO) will remove country code “IO” from its specification. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), which creates and delegates top-level domains, uses this specification to determine which top-level country domains should exist. Once IO is removed, the IANA will refuse to allow any new registrations with a .io domain. It will also automatically begin the process of retiring existing ones. (There is no official count of the number of extant .io domains.)
There's so much stuff relying on .io at this point that I won't be surprised if major DNS providers just sidestep ICAN and take matters into their own hands.
ICAN isn't omniscient and omnipotent, if the majority of the world decides that they shouldn't be in charge of DNS any more and that we'd rather use a different set of root servers, their power basically goes away.
@miki It's possible this won't go into effect for some reason, but the proposal of replacing ICANN/IANA with another governing body is certainly a bigger upheaval than the loss of a single TLD.
A threat from? In the past it was from UN to take over both names and IP addresses management worldwide. See how much that happened... (new world conferences were created and exist today just for that history)

#Mastodon 4.3 is out! 🎉 We've made notifications easier to manage and improved the look and feel of the whole app across the board. And that's just the tip of the iceberg! See what you can expect once your server upgrades:
You might have noticed already: since a few weeks, #MapComplete has a totally new search experience.
If you search something, the matching locations are shown on the map. If it matches the name of a layer or a filter, you can also opt to show only this layer or to enable this filter. For examplr, on mapcomplete.org/food, one could search for 'sushi' to only see sushi restaurants and then for 'open now'. Or search with an emoji, such as 🍕🍟🥙 or 🍙
We are officially in the 'fuck it' era of AI slop - AI-generated images are used to convey whatever partisan message suits the moment regardless of truth - for all the fear of deepfake-driven disinformation, proves fakes don't even need to be realistic 404media.co/hurricane-helene-a…
Today's challenge -- working out why GObject Introspection bitfield objects return zero when the value is bigger than MAX_UINT32. The value is correct in the .gir file, just not in the fwupd python bindings.
King 5: "Poulsbo woman calls authorities after finding over 100 raccoons outside her home demanding food
The woman told deputies she started feeding raccoons around her house about 35 years ago without any problems. Six weeks ago the population of raccoons "exploded.""
When I lived in Santa Cruz Mtns, a couple in the cabin above me, had been feeding raccoons for 20 years…people begged them to stop but ‘they’re so cute & they like us!’. Couple then went on a vacation, a cruise. Gone for 3 weeks. Came home and their cabin had been fully dismantled: Roof, windows, doors, deck, walls, cupboards… all of it, dismantled.

Western observers often express cynicism towards China’s self-proclaimed “Whole-Process People’s Democracy” without fully grasping its distinct characteristics and underlying principles. While Western liberal democracies prioritize periodic elections, China argues this approach is inherently limited, susceptible to corruption, and ultimately fails to truly represent the people’s will.

Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:
Wait, what? I use the class functionality all the time. What have you replaced it with? In particular, I encounter these particular user stories regularly: * I want most of my folders to be hidden in most menus and contexts most of the time. * I need to be able to easily unhide the hidden folders when I need to access one that I rarely use. If you've removed the functionality that enables these without replacing it with something comparable, that's a huge functional regression.
thanks for deactivating the aggressive telemetry - it is always better to ask the users! IMHO this belongs also to the "Free" in FOSS projects - the freedom to choose if I want to share some data with you - no matter what my reasons are. Thanks
Will my beta version automatically update to the full release version through the updates from Google Play Store, or will I have to install the full release version, and remove the beta from my devices?
@houdave You'll need to install the full release version once it is out, and you can remove the beta if you would like - or keep it for future testing!
I don't like that I have to select the account and it cycles through the accounts instead of giving me a dropdown to select the account like it did in K9.
Expanding the account list to show the icons doesn't help much since I have multiple accounts on the same domain and the only identifying difference is the colour. Is there a way to customize this?
@derekmceachern Thanks for your feedback! There's also been considerable discussion of accessing the different accounts on the beta mailing list. As far as customizing this, I'll try to find an answer!
@ryan_harg Hi! This has been a requested enhancement. No idea yet on any possible timeline, but this would be the best place to follow any development: github.com/thunderbird/thunder…
@T313C0mun1s7 This will need to be a manual switch over, because of Google Play Store policies. Current beta testers have been testing the switch from the most recent K-9 Mail Beta to the Thunderbird for Android beta, which is in the blog post: blog.thunderbird.net/2024/09/h…
And it means that 275 of the apps at #IzzyOnDroid are now set up for #reproducibleBuilds – or in relative numbers, 22.9% Hoping for the "forth egg" (25%) though it's quite a way to go, still 😊
byla aktualizována na verzi 4.3
Thanks to the help of Alexey, this was finally achieved:
