Hello! It's my first post here (#newhere) and I have no idea what I'm doing.
I'm a musician from Eastern France, playing medieval instruments and recording pagan folk / neo folk music.
I've released two albums so far: Leaves Are Falling (full length, in 2020, feat. among others Michalina Malisz, ex-Eluveitie) and Prelude to Farewell (EP, 2024).
I'll upload some music videos here soon.
👋

Last talk of the day — and last formal talk of #guadec. Lightning talks part two:

- yours truly talking about the great work by some GSoC students in gnome crossword
- @zeenix talking about zlink -- a dbus replacement
- Tobias, Andreas, and Julian continued yesterday's talk about Local First. Curse of the real time demo struck. But having seen it work yesterday, it's pretty cool.
- Neil's presenting gnurd. Wild talk about tracking 💩. Very entertaining, but serious point at the end.

Lightning talks (2/2):
- @jimmac gave us a trip down memory lane of icons over the years

- Jordan covered all the great CI improvements
- Aryan talked about using extensions as a way to start contributing to #gnome
- Syazwan talked about open source from Malaysia. he helps run the gnome YouTube streams
- Pietro (age 12) talked about the programs he's written. Very cool, very inspirational.

The first privately developed U.S. nuclear enrichment facility is going to be built in Paducah, Kentucky at the site of a former nuclear fuel plant. The US government is now allowing a private citizen to enrich uranium, aka nuclear bombs. That private citizen is "destroy humanity" Peter Thiel.

The @gajim XMPP chat application has modernized quite a bit and evolved a lot compared to when I last used it 15 years ago!

Also, I made a simple enhancement UX request there, and it was fixed within a day. Pretty cool: dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/is…

"Tento způsob léta zdá se mi poněkud nešťastný." ... Dnes ráno když jsem procházel zahradu a snídal ostružiny, maliny a borůvky jsem tak nějak sečítal škody. Vzduch byl čerstvý akorát po dešti, obloha zatažená a slibující další déšť. Naše rodina je v zelenině dosti orientovaná na rajčata a okurky. Přesně ty plodiny, kterým tohle počasí vůbec nesvědčí. Včera jsem zlikvidoval první rostlinu rajčete se známkami plísně. Dnes jsem zhodnotil, že náznaky plísně má většina rajčat. Stříkat to nechci. Do dvou týdnu to budu nucen nejspíš všechno dát pryč. Dle dlouhodobých předpovědí ani nečekám, že by okurky nepotkal stejný osud. No. Každý rok nemůže být posvícení. Aspoň, že krajina se zelená. #zahrada
