💧 No water. No life.

Pollution, flooding, and water scarcity threaten our waters—we must do better.

🔵 Our latest water reports highlight the progress made over the past six years, while also identifying areas for further action.

🔵 These reports map the way for EU countries to protect our freshwater and marine environments —and safeguard communities from floods.

🔵 The findings will help shape the upcoming EU Water Resilience Strategy.

Buenos días desde la Administración Pública.

Vamos tirando, para mejor. La vida sigue.

Hoy me llega la noticia de que el Consejo de Seguridad Nacional ha aprobado el procedimiento de elaboración de la estrategia contra la desinformación. Es un problema real, pero no me convence nada la forma en que pueda abordarlo un estado burgués. Habrá que estar atento.

I see blindies asking this and that and the other about VMWare workstation, so let me say that if you have any questions about doing stuff in VMWare Workstation, I'm your guy. I have near 8 years of experience, research, testing and tools on my side. Want VMWare Tools for Windows Vista and 7? Sure thing. Want a Windows XP VM with JAWS 9.0? I'll build you a Windows XP VM with JAWS 9.0. Shoot, want a Windows 98 VM? I can make you a fucking Windows 98 VM pretty easily.

Since nobody’s covering this stuff, I’ll do it.

This is from Hakeem Jeffries, Leader of the House Democratic Caucus.

My own U.S. House representative has been all over the district, and has called an emergency town hall for Thursday evening.

If you’re not seeing this in the same media that normalized and generally wanted Trump by all appearances, don’t be shocked.

Democrats are doing things, limited by the power voters didn’t bother to give them. That’s just the reality of the situation.

#Breaking

Greenland’s parliament the Inatsisartut today passed a new law making it illegal for foreign entities to donate to political parties or politicians in Greenland. The law was passed with 22 to 0 votes.

That’s how much the people of Greenland want a hostile takeover from Trump and his cronies.

And in case you are wondering: X is NOT a popular medium in Greenland, so Musk will not be able to tamper with the public narrative

Have been listening to Anne Murray's biography "All Of Me" on audible, it is really good and she reads it and plays clips of her music. She would be one of the top celebrities I would love to meet in some other life maybe. I have recorded 7 of her songs so far in the past few years. desireerenae.com/tag/anne-murr… I enjoy singing her music, though my versions might make her cringe a little, lol.

Late report of #AndroidAppRain at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid today, with 8 updated and 1 added app:

* Hypatia is the FOSS malware scanner formerly provided by DivestOS. This is a hopefully maintained fork of it.

Enjoy your #free #Android #apps with the #IzzyOnDroid repo :awesome:

in reply to mmmac

@distributed @citizenserious @asandikci I've noticed that when trying to set up Reproducible Builds for it, yeah, see github.com/MaintainTeam/Hypati… (unfortunately still no reply there). Looks like a quickly cobbled-up first release to get started, and they could still need some hands (their organization seems to have a single member only).
in reply to Aliberk Sandıkçı

@asandikci @citizenserious @distributed Ah, it's you – sorry, I didn't make the connection 🙈 Can you shortly clarify the state of the MaintainTeam repos? Do you maintain them – or rather collect repos to draw attention to them in order to improve chances to find them new maintainers? Both approaches are great, but expectations would differ of course 😉
in reply to IzzyOnDroid ✅

np 😅 I'have firstly created the organization for maintain some apps myself. But then thought it would be better to make it with a centralized* community. So except pipebender (as noticed in description) I am not maintaining any app for now. My main purpose is draw attention to other apps (firstly Hypatia ofc). In long term I want to create a real organization/foundation** to keep this process more sustainible.
in reply to Aliberk Sandıkçı

I got this idea from nix-community github org*** btw

* I don't like centralized things generally (thats why I'm in fediverse lol) but It will be better to combine efforts to improve sustainibility in long term.
** Idk the difference but you got me i guess
*** github.com/nix-community @IzzyOnDroid

in reply to Aliberk Sandıkçı

@asandikci "Idk the difference": "organization" is what you created with "MaintainTeam" at Github (the forge). It's called "organization" at Github, GitLab, Codeberg etc. A "foundation" on the other hand is a more legal term, see e.g. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundati…

There's a lot more I could say, there's a lot more I have said in other places. I believe Spritely is the future. I know it's a lot to take in. ActivityPub was a lot to take in, once upon a time.

If you want to dive in, it's all there. All out there to read. We've got tons of information these days. Yes, I know it's a lot to absorb.

If you don't want to dive in, it's a leap of faith. Let me help you make it.

in reply to Christine Lemmer-Webber

The future becomes the present when it hits peoples' hands. They start to assume of course, it was an inevitability.

Once Mastodon became a success, the popular response to ActivityPub switched from "I don't believe that could work" to "ActivityPub is obvious, anyone could have done it".

HN reply-guys always gonna armchair philosophize, act like they know everything once it's in front of their faces.

Well let me tell YOU what I think.

Here's me holding the secret lore of MIT AI memos that I, and I alone, have at my house and which are not uploaded on the internet please donate to the Spritely Institute (donate ENOUGH and maybe I will seek to get them archived so everyone can read them) spritely.institute/donate/

"Christine this is really too much"

I appeal to you one final time, one last attempt to thirstpost to a Very Particular Kind of Person into donating to the Spritely Institute

Here is me holding an ORIGINAL COPY of Guy L. Steele's dissertation, RABBIT: A Compiler for SCHEME

I used to agree with you on this, but I changed my mind.

Peer-to-peer basically requires that your users have reliable access to power and reliable internet connectivity. Most people use mobile devices, which don't satisfy any of these criteria.

Even if everybody was using Graphene OS and wasn't subject to Apple's and Google's draconian power saving policies, you can't escape the physical realities here.

I think this is the real reason why people don't use torrents any more. You can't do that on mobile, and it's not because of the APp Stores.

Somewhat-centralized / federated solutions, operated by large non-profits, seem like a much more reasonable model, Signal and Wikimedia being shining examples here.

Have you ever wondered which free virtual instruments exist out there? Yeah, they don't cost a single Penny, but you can create some awesome music with them. The list is far from complete, but its going to grow over time. Here you go, make the best of it. timtam.github.io/musicalsight/…
