Udelal jsem si infrastrukturni vikend a nasadil dalsi cast stacku Unreleased na Scaleway.

- poridil jsem dedicated server
- pohral si s bezpecnosti serveru, dockeru a kamalu
- pekne potunil kamal deployment

Musim rict, ze jsem z toho procesu vic a vic nadseny. Procesujeme uploadovane audio/video v epickem pomeru cas/delka ve vysoke kvalite. A tak nam odpada stiznost #1: "Co je to .flac a kde to najdu?". Uploadnout uz se da cokoli nad minimalni kvalitu.

Trosku me u toho mrzi, ze se do toho nemuzu ponorit na opravdu expertni urovni (treba pres kamalmanual.com/handbook/) a tim padem o tom ani nikde verejne mluvit (experti by se mi vysmali, jak to delam fakticky na koleni).

Ale rozhodne to vidim jako cestu k vybornemu pomeru skalovani a provozni ceny. Za cenu provozu Volebni Kalkulacky na Vercelu (naprosty odstrasujici bizar) mam cely stack bezpecne v EU datacentrech. Nehrozi mi tam zadna hokejka. A vydrzi to jakoukoli spicku od umelcu.

I'm going to introduce a new to me concept: #enfascisisation, to rhyme, rather bitterly, with @pluralistic's #enshittification.

Enfascisisation is the process of making a society more vulnerable to #fascism, especially by spreading the belief that the triumph of fascism is inevitable. Thus when the #BBC asks Starmer whether he's happy for his daughter to walk past an asylum hostel, one could say "the BBC is engaged in enfascisisation".

Jj já jsem Tutu taky zaplatil na rok. Zkoušel jsem i Proton, ale pro mě zbytečně drahý a přeplácaný. Tak jsem se rozhodoval mezi mailbox.org a Tutou. Zatím vyhral mailbox, ten nový vzhled se jim povedl.

Fellow instance admins: if you go to instance.tld/admin/username_bl… you can set rules that will strait up block registrations by a certain username. Use this to your advantage with r, j, JimmyTruth, Jimmy_Truth, ramon95, etc. Note that rules are case insensitive, so a rule for JimmyTruth (capital J and capital T) will also apply to jimmytruth (lowercase j and lowercase t). If someone tries to sign up on your instance with a blocked username, they'll get an error saying it's reserved. #MastoAdmin #FediAdmin #ProtectTheFediverse #TheFediverseIsOurs #FightForTheFedi

Niekedy, ked sa vrtam v statnom IT, sa citim ako zakaznik slovenskeho gastra v podobe, ako ju "ospevuju" Haf&Beyuz v skladbe "Gastrobrekeke":

"Este nikto sa mi tu tak ako ty nestazoval,
daj si prosim otocku a niekam inam otravovat odpal!"

"To sa neda nablokovat, co si sa zblaznil?!"

Joshua Rogers sent us a *massive* list of potential issues in #curl that he found using his set of AI assisted tools. Code analyzer style nits all over. Mostly smaller bugs, but still bugs and there could be one or two actual security flaws in there. Actually truly awesome findings.

I have already landed 22(!) bugfixes thanks to this, and I have over twice that amount of issues left to go through. Wade through perhaps.

UnifiedPush (Datenspuren 2025)


Push-Benachrichtigungen auf Android-Handys ohne Google. Dezentralisiert und Open Source.

Mit Open Source Tools wie microG bekommt man zwar erfolgreich proprietäre Google Software von seinem Android-Handy verbannt; die eigentlichen Benachrichtigungen werden aber dennoch über Google Server verschickt (Firebase Cloud Messaging).

UnifiedPush ist ein Framework, mit dem Push-Benachrichtigungen dezentral bzw über selbst betriebene Server zugestellt werden können. Zahlreiche Open Source Android Apps unterstützen bereits UnifiedPush. Unter anderem: Tusky, Fedilab, DAVx⁵, Fennec, Element (mit Einschränkungen) und viele mehr.

Dieser Vortrag erklärt, wie Push-Benachrichtigungen im Allgemeinen funktionieren und warum sie trotz ihres eventuell schlechten Rufes eleganter sind, als jede App eine eigene Serververbindung aufbauen zu lassen.

Des Weiteren werden mögliche Privacy-Probleme erörtert die mit der Benutzung von Google Push Servern einhergehen.

Anschließend wird die Architektur von UnifiedPush erklärt.

Der Vortrag endet mit einer praktischen Anleitung wie man UnifiedPush auf einem Android-Handy benutzt.

I’m tickled to report that I’ve just learned I will be the recipient of a Canada Council Research and Development Grant! My first ever grant award! Along with a colleague I’ll be researching two late 18th century Blind musicians, Maria Theresia Von Paradis and Friedrich Dulon. We will be visiting austria, France and Germany in March. She will be researching notated musical works available only there. I will be researching places and ideas as a historical fiction writer/storyteller. Our goal is to create a performance and podcast including their music, some of which has been unheard for centuries, alongside historical fiction stories based on what I can learn of their lives and experience. My quest is to find real live folk in Ostrea, France and Germany with an interest in any of these topics, or just an interest in meeting and playing tour guide to some inquisitive Canadians. I’d love to connect. Please feel free to boost for reach, or to suggest contacts or hashtags. @CanadaCouncil #BringingTheArtsToLife

It's why limiting your exposure to wrong and harmful points of view is healthy. It's enough to confront an idea and understand why it's wrong without immersing yourself in it.

You don't need to go swimming in toxic waste to know it's bad for you.

Right-wingers and their liberal allies want you debating this garbage constantly because they know that has a cognitive and social normalizing effect. It's why refusing to engage and deplatforming them works best.

#SkyShowtime nefunguje na #Linux. Zjistil jsem to po zaplacení měsíční subscription. Tak jsem si pokecal s jejich podporou skrze překladač (nebo nepřiznali, že je to chatbot).

Nejprve mi doporučil, ať užívám chytrý telefon nebo TV, pak mi navrhl, ať si koupím novou smart telku. Tak jsem se mu vysmál a zeptal se, jestli na tu telku dostanu od SkyShowtime nějakou dotaci.

Pak začal mluvit racionálně a tvrdí, že mi refundují prachy.

Y’all. This is a known spammer who is picking up momentum. We’re seeing LOTS of accounts using the same name and avatar. But the bio varies from instance to instance. And a minority of them don’t have an avatar, but still use the name.

If you see these accounts, please report them. We’re trying to wipe them out, but we can’t until we know about them.

Thanks for the teamwork! 🤝

I have now interviewed over a dozen people about shutting down research projects and software projects. All but two have been deliberate closures (long enough timescale to reflect and correct course while winding down). I would be grateful if people who have been through abrupt closure (little or no warning, very short timescale) would share their experiences. I'm gvwilson@third-bit.com and all interviews will be confidential. Thanks in advance - Greg

THIS IS THE RIGHT KIND OF CANCEL CULTURE.
So Disney is offering massive discounts for 6 months if you try to cancel your subscription. For those who weren’t cancelling bc their young kids, it’s worth at least trying to cancel and take the discount they offer to keep you. Then cancel before the promotion period ends.

They are also spending a fortune on ads to get people back. The boycott is working. Soooo many people are fighting back.

While places like Germany (Grafenrheinfeld) and the USA (Hartsville) are tearing down clean energy infrastructure, China releases this montage about building the world's largest wet cooling tower at the Lianjiang Nuclear Power Plant.

Sorry, it is hard to not be sarcastic after dealing with the same one-sided question for years.

Nuclear waste is currently recycled through the PUREX process, where spent nuclear fuel rods are cut down in smaller pieces and then chemically treated to keep the uranium and plutonium (read: the fuel) to create new fuel rods with them, which is called MOX fuel (Mixed OXide).

This is possible because spent nuclear fuel, after having been in a reactor core for four or five years, still have up to 96% of the fuel available. It is just too contaminated with fission products to remain high efficiency at that point.

The fission products, which are a wide group of short lived isotopes, are separated via the PUREX procedure and put in glass granulates. This vitrified stuff is chemically inert and highly radioactive for around 300 years. In the Netherlands we store around 1.5 cubic meters of it each year in an above-ground facility called the HABOG building at the COVRA facility (see below picture). I had a tour there last year, which was really fascinating.

The disadvantage of the PUREX route is threefold: 1. It separates out the plutonium, creating a potential proliferation concern; 2. it's somewhat costly, so only few countries do it (the Netherlands does it via France's Orano facility in La Hague); 3. it's not that efficient in burning up all potential fuel.

There is an alternative in the works via pyroprocessing (yes, by high temperatures), which leaves the plutonium mixed with the uranium. This route in combination with another type of reactor, called a fast breeder reactor, can be used to create a better way to gain a 100x efficiency gain in fuel efficiency. This leaves essentially the short lived fission products.

Then there's another development going on via molten salt reactors. This way opens the possibility of isolating specific isotopes from that 'soup' of fission products, which then can be used for a plethora of industrial and healthcare use cases. If we develop this the coming decades, there is a potential to actually more or less completely recycle all of the waste.

Fast breeder reactors and molten salt reactors get online in the coming decade. China already got one online recently. I expect a lot more developments in this regard in the next few decades.

But again, compared to all other energy sources, nuclear energy has by far the lowest waste stream in absolute volume and the best maintained one by regulation. If for example the solar industry was expected to be on the same level of care, it would go bankrupt overnight. The nuclear industry can only maintain this double standard because of the amazing energy density of uranium.

Hope this helps!

if the C-Suite positions are so important and well-paid, then clearly we must know a great deal about them, and can automate it.

I think some of them like Finance and HR are very much "follow the complicated rules, in a timely manner, and don't LIE".

Seems like that would be easier than automating a CEO, who might have to do "inspire the workforce so they don't quit and so we can pay them less"

Maybe a bit out there as an idea, but the @frameworkcomputer fingerprint reader works perfectly with Linux Mint and it can be purchased independently: frame.work/ca/en/marketplace/p…

I'm not sure how insane it would be to attach it to an existing laptop.

Maybe the kind folks at Framework could provide you with a free laptop since you're a distro maintainer 🤞
