No, say it ain’t so. I’m shocked, absolutely shocked.

To reduce having to search the web each time, I added a bunch of frequently asked questions about #systemd such as using journalctl and systemctl in a more efficient way.
Are you using #linux and systemd to its fullest? Have a look at linux-audit.com/systemd/faq/ to see. Anything missing?
Feedback and boosts much appreciated to make this section even better 🤠 💪🏻

As there seems to have been another uptick in participation here, a quick summary #introduction (fuller one is pinned). I'm a UK-based (Londoner now living on #isleofwight) folklorist. Started off interested in #folksong, spread to wider interest in #folk #folklore.
Did an MA, liked it, so did a PhD on Contemporary Belief in #Ghosts - uhra.herts.ac.uk/handle/2299/7….
Currently on the Council of the Folklore Society, Associate Editor of its journal Folklore, & on the editorial board of #FolkMusic Journal. Until end of year I'm Research Fellow on #FolkloreWithoutBorders research network on EDI in British folkloristics.
I've written on #ghostlore, folklore about #rats, #cannibalism at sea, tongue twisters, popular representation of folkloristics. Increasingly working on folklore's history. Shiny research profile here: researchprofiles.herts.ac.uk/e…
Hi Mastodon. I'm Mick, a wildlife guide based in Granada region of #Spain. I'm looking forward to connect with fellow birders, botanists & entomologists throughout the Fediverse.
Regularly out in the countryside of Andalucia & further afield posting info & images about my adventures & encounters with the natural world.
Here's a photo of a close encounter with Iberian Lynx I took a few years ago.

I've come to understand what's happening in frontend's decade-long failure to deliver decent user experiences as a sort of epistemic closure. I'm calling it "frameworkism", and the epicenter is now React.
Here's a lot of words on why we should all reject it, and what the post-React world should look like:

Frameworkism is now the dominant creed of today's frontend discourse, and it's bullshit. We owe it to ourselves and to our users to reject dogma and embrace engineering as a discipline that strives to serve users first and foremost.Alex Russell

Reform UK leader says it would be ‘worthy’ discussion and parliament should get more time ‘to debate things people talk about at home’Ben Quinn (The Guardian)
This is making the rounds on Finnish social media.
A large association for Finnish construction companies, #Rakennusteollisuus, decided that they needed an English version of their website but apparently they didn't want to pay an actual #translator so just used some free #LLM with hilarious results.
They've fixed it now, but for a short while there was some comedy gold to be found.
P.s. I didn't find these, I've no idea who did.

P. #Blanár najprv na ministerstvo nabral 146 novych ludi a hned na to¹ ide inych 40 prepustit. Zdovodnuje to potrebou setrit, o ktorej v zasade tusili/vedeli uz aj pred volbami a urcite vedeli pocas naberania tych novych.

p.s.: Chapem, ze beriem noz do prestrelky (t.j. za sa snazim drzat logiky tam, kde na nu rezignovali), ale asi musim.

Minister zahraničných vecí Juraj Blanár (Smer) rozbehol jedno z najväčších hromadných prepúšťaní v porevolučných dejinách tohto rezortu. O prácu prišli diplomati s veľkými skúsenosťami, ktorí mali dvadsať- a viacročnú prax v pozíciách veľvyslancov.Miro Kern (Denník N)
2/2 Skusim odlahcit:
V ZSSR postavili niekde na Sibiri zeleznicne priecestie. K nemu mal byt zamestnanec na obsluhu rampy. Len ten nemoze robit vkuse, prip. moze ochoriet. Tak tam pridali druheho obsluhovaca. Lenze to uz su dvaja a tych treba riadit. Tak pridali veduceho. Lenze to uz su traja a tych treba strazit. Pridali teda aj politickeho dostojnika. Lenze na financiach zhodnotili 4 ludi na jednu rampu ako privela a nariadili skresat na ½. A tak zrusili tych dvoch obsluhovacov rampy.

Amazing what €750 million can accomplish. How much donations are going to rebuilding South-Lebanon?
I wonder.
Here it is: the Finnish Parliament has sided against #ChatControl !
I am overjoyed that in their statement, they have outlined exactly what this proposal would entail: mass surveillance in Europe.
From their statement (translation by me):
"..the suggested model would, in fact, lead to the mass surveillance of communication and would weaken the integrity of communication in the EU."

Not everyone is happy about it being the default.Shannon Connellan (Mashable)
Il nucleare è talmente conveniente, economico e redditizio che l’unico modo per farlo è trovare un governo amico che ti fa un prestito da cinquanta miliardi a tasso zero, rischiando una procedura di infrazione europea per aiuti di stato illegali che ostacolano e distorcono il libero mercato dell’energia.
