While DAVx⁵ is a client-server sync tool we often get questions if there is a possibility to sync in server to server. We had a nice talk today with the creator @whynothugo from pimsync who does work on a tool that does exactly that.

Check out the project here if you're interested:

pimsync.whynothugo.nl/

We also added it to our FAQ: davx5.com/faq/synchronization/…

#Digitalcourage, OG #München:
F-Droid und datenschutzfreundliche Apps

» In diesem Workshop zeigen wir Möglichkeiten, die Datensammlung auf #Android-#Smartphone|s einzuschränken. Neben allgemeinen Tipps (Abschalten der #Google Werbe-ID, Verwendung einer alternativen #Suchmaschine, Werbung über DNS- und/oder Firewall-Einstellungen reduzieren, …) wollen wir vor allem den #App-Store #FDroid vorstellen und uns über die dortigen Apps austauschen.

> Catima: [...] Aus Gründen der Datensparsamkeit sollten Sie – entgegen der Empfehlung der Entwickler.innen – natürlich keine Kund.innenkarten, Treueprogramme o. Ä. verwenden

Ich finde es auch ein gutes Idee, so wenig sollche Programmen wie möglich zu benutzen. Viele Leute haben aber nicht wirklich immer eine andere Option, weil Produkte oft teurer sind wenn mann diese Programmen nicht benutzt. Aber zumindestens trackt nur das Geschäft Sie denn, nicht auch der app :)

Lots happened in the #LibreOffice project in May! We had updates to the software, event reports, news about the upcoming conference and more: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl… #foss #OpenSource

@FreakyFwoof @Scott Well there was that one time ...

I got off the train in the rain. I must have been 10, 11 years old. No phone. No announcements of the stops, either, not on my local valleys line. I had to count stops and hope, as a rule. Clearly, as I plodded on and nothing felt familiar, I realised I'd miscounted on this occasion.

So the rain keeps blattering and blustering and I keep walking, there's fences and walls and I hope that soon I'll come to something vaguely familiar. I have 10p for a phone box if I can find one, or i'll just ask the next person I hear.
I pause.
I hear someone, maybe.
I walk a bit further on.
Yes, that does sound like breathing.
"Hello," I exclaim!
"I presume Caerphilly is back the other way? Could you tell me where I am, please?"

The answer was a nay, I could not be told.
I was talking to a horse.

General PSA: don’t apply for a job at Canonical. Do NOT apply for a job at Canonical. Treat the blatantly artificially enormous number of job openings they post as the mirages of trickster fae. They are unhinged. Mark Shuttleworth is unhinged. They will drag you through the mud, disrespect you and your time, and definitely not give you a job. This article I saw today is like the thirteenth of its kind that I personally have seen dustri.org/b/my-experience-wit…

Comparing #XMPP against #email protocols is too limited. What sets #deltachat apart is *vertical integration* and being driven by UI/UX considerations. Cross-platform Apps and Bots use the Rust core library which connects with #chatmail relays and classic email servers based on a higher level API -- abstracting over SMTP, MIME, #OpenPGP etc. See chatmail.at

#webxdc apps in turn use an even higher level stable API abstracting over email/xmpp/... see webxdc.org/docs/

Da beschränkt man sich wohl jetzt auf das Github Repo github.com/organicmaps/organic… – Danke für den Hinweis! Wir hatten die "Web" Version damals aufgenommen, als der PlayStore sie ausgesperrt hatte. Aber da unsere Badge dor nicht im Einsatz ist, ohnehin nie zu uns verlinkt wurde, die APK-Größe 2x unser per-App Limit ist, und die App ohnehin bei F-Droid verfügbar, ist jetzt wohl der Zeitpunkt zum Entfernen gekommen…

This past week, 99 years ago, Miles Dewey Davis III was born in Alton, Illinois.

On November 12, 1989, on 60 Minutes, Harry Reasoner asked him if Black musicians were better at jazz and blues because of slavery. The question could’ve gone sideways.

What Davis said—quietly, precisely—was about rhythm, memory, race, and the meaning of swing. #music #Jazz #Histodons #history #blackmastodon #photography #blackandwhite

Countries on the edge of the Sahara desert are reversing desertification by just digging half circles.

The ground in these places is too compact for water to soak in during wet season which leads to flooding but digging these holes gives the water a place to stop and soak in. And they’re pushing back the desert with this. By just digging holes.

In 1989 we participated in a "copy party" in Eskilstuna Sweden and our demo group Horizon won the demo competition. Triad came on second place.

This photo contains members of Horizon and Triad present at that party.

I'm the guy in middle of the lowest row with the McGyver look.

For you @bjoreman 😁

It's day 1 of #AudioMo! This one is short enough I can include the full transcript here. I'll be posting (hopefully at least daily) under this hashtag until July. Where the transcript is too long it's always in the ID3 tags of the audio itself.

[Gentle birdsong proceeds the closing of a door]
Good evening, Audio Mo. Welcome to the first of the month and the first of my recordings for this delightful thirty days or so of nonsense that I'll be spouting.
[Clicks of wall outlet switches.]
I am just standing in my home office and I'm about to turn on all the power for everything which has been
turned off for the week I've been on holiday.
[The famous Apple startup sound plays in the background]
That's the MacBook coming back to life. Other
plugs I need to turn on are over here and over here. Lovely. And I need to power up
the hard drive here. Brilliant. That means that the work laptop is ready. Yes, it has
a headset in it. Keyboard for phone control is there. Let's have a look.
[Keypresses.]
Yes, three flashing
lights means fully charged. Excellent. So the week holiday was spent in Rhodes, on Rhodes
I suppose, it's an island. And it was a lovely week. I had a very good time. I'll tell you
more about it in subsequent audio posts, of course. That hard drive doesn't sound very
healthy does it? And we'll also spend some time this Audio Mo talking about what's changed
since last year, of course. What's got better, what's got worse, what's different, what's
the same. And then we'll throw in a few surprises along the way,
[a light switch is turned off]
including some cookery.
[a door is opened]
Poetry. And all the other exciting things we can think of.
[the door is closed and we are now back in the garden]
So, enjoy day one. I've certainly enjoyed
some of the introductory posts that I've come across and other people's responses and things.
I look forward to flavouring your months with me over the next four weeks.
