After i meditate outside and open my eyes fully, the plants and trees seem to radiate with a golden aura and the flora is a more vibrant green. I am so grateful for another day in this beautiful planet! 🙏🏼💚🌳✨🌿🌎
Wishing all a beautiful Friday and weekend. ❤️🤗🎉🌷😘

Thank you, Liev Schreiber, for embracing your trans daughter Kai. “This is actually a community of people who don’t have great resources, who don’t have access to help, who aren’t being protected and looked after by their families," Schreiber said. people.com/liev-schreib...
Liev Schreiber is opening up about parenting his transgender daughter, Kai. The family will soon appear at a benefit gala to support homeless LGBTQ+ youth.
Fun project for friday evening. I am hosting some unmaintained web sites for a few friends and they help me to pay the hosting costs in return. Now I have found out I need php 7.4 for some of these and it's not readily available so building php 7.4.33 on up to date arch linux.
I am afraid this will no longer be possible in the future. How do you deal with this? Can I run PHP in some kind of lightweight container?

Have you ever wondered what happens in your database when #django does its thing? I loved this talk from Karen Jex, now in blog form... highly recommended: karenjex.blogspot.com/2025/05/…
TIL that sometimes #git repositories can have bad commits that don't fsck, but there's a workaround to let you clone them: gitlab.freedesktop.org/cairo/c…

would you like a pillow that says something like “curl is quality software and the maintainers work hard to make it so”? I understand the sentiment that you have many inappropriate demands on your time and attention, but I think your pillows should recognize the quality of your contributions.
So, I'm about to try Slint! Thanks to @JessDail for reminding me about it. Except this time I'm going to try it in a VM because I do not want a repeat of the Fedora incident from a week ago. Ugh.

New in Foobar2000 for Mac V2.25 preview: "Added keyboard shortcut mapping functionality."
Yeeees!!!! This is what I've been waiting for for ages. The Mac version received everything else I used, and behaves very similarly and runs just as quickly as the Windows version, but literal 0 support for hotkeys was a dealbreaker. It goes without saying that, like the Windows version you need to go in and set up the keys yourself and at least for this initial preview there is absolutely no default hotkeys defined where the Windows one at least has some menu items configured. It also currently doesn't support global shortcuts or hotkeys without a modifier so sadly still no space to play or pause for me. Even then this is a huge improvement and I can actually see myself using this as my default player now also on Mac. You can download from here
@Mew✨🥰 @Pitermach It cooperates fine with upmpdcli and bubble upnp from my limited testing so far. I like it verry much really. Peter, the Foobar 2000 developer is a genius. The fact he is working on these things 25 + years and is still passionate is more than amazing.

Did you see this? It's an artist's conception of how gravity from the tiny moon Daphnis creates ripples in Saturn's rings - created by Kevin Gill of NASA.
This image was pretty popular here, and elsewhere on the web - but people often don't come out and say from the start that it's not a photo. The actual photos are less beautiful but... hey, they're real! And the ripples look different in the photos. Let's take a look.
This 2005 photo, taken by the Cassini probe, was the first time anyone actually saw Saturn's moon Daphnis! It's only 8 kilometers across.
This gap in Saturn's A ring was first discovered by Voyager, and it was named the Keeler Gap. It's 35 kilometers wide. I guess this gap let people guess the existence of a moon, and later the ripples in the A ring let people guess where the moon must be! I don't really know the history here.

#PSA Heads up: Soundcloud will use your content to train AI
ETA: Lovely news! The change to SoundCloud's terms of service happened in February 2024; they've been stealing your intellectual property for a whole-ass year.
@manchicken not particularly in this context, no. Since a while back I do send out a monthly email on the libcurl mailing list titled "Help us out in the curl project!" which tend to mention different things. Here's the latest one I sent:
Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
Here’s a fun one… Microsoft added copilot features to sharepoint. The copilot system has its own set of access controls. The access controls let it see things that normal users might not be able to see. Normal users can then just ask copilot to tell them the contents of the files and pages that they can’t see themselves. Luckily, no business would ever put sensitive information in their sharepoint system, so this isn’t a realistic threat, haha.
Obviously Microsoft have significant resources to research and fix the security problems that LLM integration will bring with it. So much money. So many experts. Plenty of time to think about the issues since the first recall debacle.
TL;DR AI Assistants are becoming far more common Copilot for SharePoint is Microsoft’s answer to generative AI assistance on SharePoint Attackers will look to exploit anything they can get their hands on Your current controls and logging may be insuf…
