A Delhi High Court case could end up threatening how Wikipedia works in India

I was in the train just now with a group of young women studying to be apothecary assistants. They were confused about their exam on calculating medicine doses. What did they use to inform themselves about the right calculations? ChatGPT. 🤐
Forget about AGI. *This* is how AI is gonna kill you: in small, stupid, absurd ways.
#PSA: if you have a small business that ships items, consider not using Uline: the owner uses the company's profits to fund right wing anti-democratic causes.
propublica.org/article/uline-u…
And, because you still need to ship your product, here's a good resource to replace them:
Refuse Uline
Uline is a purposely political company aligned with extreme right-wing ideology. Despite their politics, millions of small businesses and artists still use ULINE completely unaware of what their dollars are supporting. This needs to end now.refuseuline.com
#PSA: remember never to sign up for a new Patreon through the Apple app store--starting November 1, 2024, Apple will take a bite out of every Patreon subscription done through their app store.
Go to the website using a browser, so that more money goes to the person you are supporting (Patreon is already taking a large bite of that pie as it is)
Ug. I didn't think I'd struggle to stick with a Mastodon instance, but seriously... Doctor Who...
I might need to pull out my super long scarf and create a second one over there
PSA your subscription dollars to Spotify go directly to supporting the convicted criminal that is running for President to turn the US into a fascist state.
The best time to cancel it was when signed in that fascism promoter. The second best time is now.
Historians: the space race couldn't have been accomplished at that pace without the US hiring nazis to work on rockets.
2024: hold my beer. He is also a russian asset.

"Disposable vapes are indefensible. Many, or maybe most, of them contain rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, but manufacturers prefer to sell new ones. More than 260 million vape batteries are estimated to enter the trash stream every year in the UK alone. Vapers and vape makers are simply leaving an e-waste epidemic to the planet's future residents to sort out."

I get this when my wife's volume exceeds the 'I'm on the phone' level and bits of her meetings ssound interesting.
I know how dull I'd find her job and have zero interest in 99% of what she talks about at work, but only catching the odd bit here and there makes me think there *could* be more to it!

Wohooo! Díky @archos za upozornění, pokud používáte Matrix (mxchat) a jste stejně pomalí jako já a nepostřehli jste to, vyšla oficiálně appka Element X a je boží. Vypadá jak z 21 století, je citelně rychlejší a šlape bezchybně

If this Election Day thing is a huge success, maybe we should prepare two release versions where people can vote on?
One with increased stability and performance. One that deletes all files from previous versions and tries to occupy all memory.
We should not be making those decisions for you!

Liebe Folglinge:
Ich suche (noch immer) nach einem neuen Job als #iOS & #macOS Entwickler in Anstellung (remote only, ich wohne in Österreich). Ich kann auf ca. 30 Jahre in der Software-Entwicklung zurückblicken, bin immer neugierig und hab eine Problemlöser-/Macher-Mentalität. #Swift, #SwiftUI, #ObjectiveC und das ganze Drumherum sind selbstverständlich.
Solltet ihr also jemanden kennen... ihr wisst schon.
Danke fürs rege Teilen, Boosten, Weitersagen etc. 🙏
Neue - nicht ganz offene - #chatmail-Instanz: Auf einem #RaspberryPi Zero 2 mit UPS und Wlan ins Handynetz für #DeltaChat
Funktioniert gut. Kosten: 54 Euro (mit "Gehäuse", teilweise noch offen), brauchte nur extra Schrauben und Abstandhalter zum Zusammenbau.
Einziger Wehrmutstropfen: Ohne dedizierte IPv4 geht es nicht, und die kostet 5,16 Euro Minimum im Monat bei Vorauszahlung für ein Jahr.
Und jetzt wird es spannend: Die Frontpage von chatmail soll eine richtige Homepage werden...
Ähm, das schließt sich im Konzept aus. Zwar können die Elemente genauso installiert werden, das Verfahren mit pyinfra ist allerdings extra auf Interoperabilität ausgelegt, braucht daher Zertifikate, die von Let's encrypt angefordert werden, und das setzt für die Acme-Challenge über http eine pingbare IP voraus.
Ich habe es über die IPv6 des Mifi-Routers probiert, der sperrt aber ICMP. Ich muss also ein VPN mit dedizierter IP nutzen (mindestens fürs Einrichten).
es gibt aber auch domain authentifizierung mit DNS Einträgen, vielleicht geht das besser um sich das Zertifikat zu holen? (braucht aber einen domain Anbieter / Name server mit api)
letsencrypt.org/docs/challenge…
Challenge Types
When you get a certificate from Let’s Encrypt, our servers validate that you control the domain names in that certificate using “challenges,” as defined by the ACME standard.letsencrypt.org
Es gibt vieles – für Nerds.
#chatmail möchte schnell, einfach und interoperabel für Fastendanwender sein.
Alles mit Tor u.a. Varietäten wären forks mit verändertem konzeptionellem Ansatz...
...nicht mehr chatmail.
Inspired by @kees and @bagder I graphed #ArkScript source code age (last 3.x version is from mid 2023 hence the big purple triangle starting in 2023)
There seems to be a lot of code, but tests are counted too.
16'540 lines for the source code only, and 12'430 for the tests (8k dedicated to the fuzzing corpus, 4k for the unit tests)
I attribute the big jump to my recent "add tests everywhere" addiction
Tags are ordered using git tag --sort=authordate instead of sorting them using semver (because I have some... questionable v3.2.0-a tags)
Ayer, en la red social mala, anunciamos desde Acción Contra el Odio que estamos preparando una denuncia contra quienes promovieron la agresión a Pedro Sánchez en Paiporta, reivindicada por grupos neonazis.
Horas después, la web de CTXT fue atacada. No solo han tirado el sitio, también nos han borrado todos los ficheros. Agradecemos toda difusión y apoyo.

Is there anyway to customise a numbered list so that the numbers go 5,10, 15... or something similar?
The way I view this botsin.space thing:
botsin.space admin: "I'm going to quit the server. It's just getting too expensive for me".
botsin.space users: "Oh, let's move to another free instance I guess".
I'm getting more worried about this freerider mentality if we are to make this work in the long run.
