„Naposledy za námi přijela někdy na podzim. Jen na pár dní. Ustlala si tehdy mezi mnou a klukem, na zemi, přímo pod stolem. Prý že tak je zvyklá, že takhle se cítí v bezpečí. Celé noci tam pak naříkala. Vyla jako zvíře a křičela ze spaní. Nikdo si prý neumíme představit, co se tam na východě odehrává.“

Jak padla nesmrtelná Káťa. Třicetiletá snajperka a máma malého Denyse zemřela u Avdijivky
„Mysleli jsme, že je nesmrtelná,“ vzpomíná na ukrajinskou snajperku Katerynu Šynkarenko fotoreportér Stanislav Krupař. Poznali se na frontě, padla letos v bojích u Avdijivky.Stanislav Krupař (Reportér Magazín)
Ever find that sitting in front of your unnecessarily complex music rig is hard sometimes? Creative block hits and there's nothing you can do about it?
I certainly find that lately, more often than not.
One device has come into my life and changed a lot of that however. Ableton Move.
In this world-first video, I take you through making a beat without sight, just using the undocumented screen-reader function within the web-based Move Manager.
It's incredibly freeing to be able to just load a fresh set, be presented with four random sounds and perhaps one of them will inspire you so you just begin doing a thing that you had absolutely no plan to do before you started.

I'm determined to make podcasts happen in my life, but if I have to hear one more smarmy US podcaster giggle at some quip about some serious topic or an other or attempt "humour" I will lose my actual shit
Liebe Männer,
wenn ihr einen Post über Mansplaining lest und das dringende Bedürfnis verspürt, witzig drunterzukommentieren (z.B. "Ich mansplaine hier mal drunter haha"), lasst es einfach.
Es ist nicht lustig und tausende Männer vor euch hatten schon dieselbe Idee.
Do not downplay this. The Wall Street Journal editorial endorses murdering UN peacekeeping troops. This is all this means. They have adopted Netanyahu's line. It's a choice.
What follows is Israel bombing the UN.
They already did that: look up the 1996 Qana Massacre.
Kind of a jarring experience to have dudes publicly in my mentions defending Stallman over individual nitpicks on one item in a thousand-page dossier while right next to them on my TL are locked posts from women detailing decades of trauma and ruined career opportunities from him and his ilk.
Stallman is a piece of shit, he has demonstrated this over the course of decades, and if you want me to think highly of you, you will not defend him in my replies. I am not open to being persuaded!

Welcome to the RB family, Omni 🥳
apt.izzysoft.de/packages/uk.ak…
Omni is a toolbox offering you compass, barometer, ruler and more.
I made it very clear when I went out to talk to the builders that I don't blame them, they're just here to do a job and don't know who's house it is, but I do blame the higher-ups for being so damn lackadaisical as to not let us know properly. They could have been anyone. Burglars. I feel extremely on-edge as a result.

My #GoToSocial backup procedure:
This runs as a cron job every day at an off-peak hour. Do bear in mind that both the sqlite backup, which takes place while GTS is running and therefore must handle locks, and xz, take up a lot of CPU power.

umask 027
now0="$(date +'%F %T')"
printf "%s: Starting backup.\n" "$now0"
cd /home/gts/gts || { printf "Impossible to backup. Cannot access directory.\n"; exit; }

printf "Backing up database.\n"

Umberto Eco Explains the Poetic Power of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts
Just over 30 years ago, Umberto Eco wrote an essay in the New York Review of Books about what made that strip one of the most, if not the most compelling of the twentieth century.Colin Marshall (Openculture.com)
Other than not funding them, and putting shame-pressure on them, is there anything one can do about the FSF?
If the FSF got dissolved, what happens to the copyrighted code that it owns / that has been assigned to it?
You are right that this identifies a huge "bus factor" for all FSF-stewarded projects. Anyone who works in operating systems knows how fundamental many of these pieces are. A few things could happen.
Option 1: The ongoing work to Rust-ify everything is accelerated. A new surge of energy appears to move to a Rust future.
Option 2: Good Person(s) Scenario. FSF gracefully hands over copyright ownership to a responsible steward.
Option 3: Bad Person(s) Scenario. S***show.
I went through the FSF copyright assignment process once (for some automake patches). From memory, there were some conditions attached to the assignment related to how the FSF would license the code.
If the FSF dissolved and the copyrights transferred to a successor org, I assume those promises would also transfer with it. It's possible that they might be able to relicense the code under a more permissive free software license, but they couldn't sell commercial licenses to the code.

in reply to daniel:// stenberg:// • • •I think the page makes false allegations, like saying that Stallman supports some things, but the supporting quote presented doesn't actually support the allegation.
Also "muh legal and social norms", like those never change and are always right. I think it's good to question legal and social norms.
