Sci-fi koncept warp pohonu z Star Treku se díky fyzikům přibližuje realitě každým dnem

Před téměř 60 lety zažehl původní seriál Star Trek sen ve veřejné představivosti: že jednoho dne budou lidé cestovat galaxií v lodích poháněných nadsvětelnými „warp pohony".

From Facebook. The 15 Shouldn’ts of Friendship. You shouldn’t have to tiptoe. You shouldn’t have to quiet yourself. You shouldn’t have to hide. You shouldn’t have to dumb down your excitement, your passions or your successes. You shouldn’t have to endlessly work to prove your worth. You shouldn’t have to wonder and guess and make assumptions as to why they’re mad at you. You shouldn’t have to clean up their side of the street. You shouldn’t be made to feel like you’re disposable. You shouldn’t be held accountable for your reactions while they refuse to be accountable for theirs. You shouldn’t be made to feel like the bad guy because you finally walked away after being pushed out. You shouldn’t be the only one trying to fix things, working to communicate well, showing up, doing favors, reaching out or giving grace. You shouldn’t carry the weight of the friendship alone. You shouldn’t feel like you need to be anyone other than your full self. You shouldn’t feel bad about yourself when you’re around them. You shouldn’t give up on yourself, you’re worthy of good and healthy friendships.

Ich habe einen #Bot geschrieben, der jeden Sonntag ein zufällig ausgewähltes Muster der Mustersprache des #Commoning teilt: @mustersprache_bot

In der Sphäre der gemeinsamen Nutzung von Dingen und der von Freiwilligkeit geprägten gegenseitigen Hilfe tauchen immer wieder dieselben Herausforderungen auf. Diese Herausforderungen werden von den Commoning-Mustern adressiert. Dabei wurden die enthaltenen Lösungen nicht 'erfunden', sondern 'gefunden': Sie beschreiben die Essenz von gelingenden Lösungen, mit denen diese Herausforderung von den daran Beteiligten angegangen wurden.

Die 33 Muster sind das politische Vermächtnis der 2021 verunglückten Commons-Forscherin Silke #Helfrich. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn sich hier ein paar Menschen finden, die diese Muster gelegentlich teilen, damit die darin enthaltene Erfahrung im #Fediverse Verbreitung findet. Dankeschön! 🙏

Now free for all to read... Imagine a family living in 1980s Bulgaria. They're the Petrovi family: father Plamen, mother Elena, and son Boyan. I say "imagine", for the Petrovis aren't real; they're a fictional family created to illustrate life in 1980s Sofia, the Bulgarian capital - and they live in the so-called Red Flat:

NVDA keyboard help vs JAWS keyboard help.
When keyboard help is on in JAWS and I press media keys like Mute, VolumeUp and VolumeDown on the keyboard, JAWS announces the key names and functions but strangely performs the associated functions as well. So I may mute my machine with JAWS even in Keyboard help mode. NVDA also announces the key names and functions in Keyboard help mode, but doesn't perform those actions. I like NVDA's approach as it helps novices confidently master the media keys without worrying about accidentally muting the entire audio or altering the volume.

Nvidia’s Shocking Cutoff: GTX 1060 and Windows 10 Support Ends Soon!

The Beginning of the End for Beloved Graphics Cards and a Trusted OS In a move that signals the closing chapter for an entire era of gaming hardware and software, Nvidia has announced a critical update for Windows 10 users and owners of its GTX 10 and 900 series graphics cards. While there's a short-term reprieve, the long-term future looks uncertain for gamers who haven’t upgraded their GPU or OS.

Libervia CLI Tip 11:

Libervia automatically caches pubsub nodes you are subscribed to.

You can control it with the `li pubsub cache` commands.

The search capabilities are really powerful, with full-text search and many filters.

You can find items across profiles, within a time frame, or on any field of parsed data.

You can show whole items or specific data (e.g., title/author/tags of forum posts within a time frame).

It's a weirdly satisfying number, and I can't explain why, and I am glad it's just for fun and not about numbers and $$hit.

ЕЕЕЕЕЕ, недей така го пускай по надолнището, дай малко нагоре, че да има повече време за клипчета. Да, преди в ютуб имаше време според събовете, сега не знам как е с всичките им глупости. То и да не монетизираш клипове, пак пуска реклами, абе тъпотия. Но пък е готино да подкрепиш някой, все едно му даваш лайк и вече си фен. :) ;) Also, if you make that 59 I'll poke you, with a white cane, it hurts. :P

Intelligence truly is a weird thing, especially when it's super concentrated. I consider myself to be an at least fairly decent C++ and Rust programmer at this point, and I know many other programming languages as well to varying degrees. And yet, I struggle to spell words that many would consider basic in English, the one and only language I natively speak and grew up speaking. I do blame part of this on learning contracted Braille so young, as one example I didn't know how to spell "necessary" until I was like 13, but I also wonder how much of it is because I don't speak any other languages, and the part of my brain that I should be using for spelling English words is being used to remember all the syntax rules of C++ templates.

Respectfully, I disagree that it has anything to do with either intelligence or the brain, it's just a question of priorities. Spelling was a priority for people between, say, 1600 and 1990 because to spell well was to appear educated. Before 1600, people didn't need to spell in accordance with any specific rules. After 1990, people didn't need to know those rules because the computer would do it for them. It's just the end of a relatively short period in the history of the English language when spelling was a proxy for education. There are other proxies for education at the moment, spelling just isn't one of them, I'm trying to think of anything, other than a pen/pencil, which doesn't allow checking. Once the people who were educated before 1990 or so are no longer here, nobody will care about spelling. Even now, a badly spelled text is an example of carelessness, it means nothing about how well a person is educated or how knowledgeable he may be except if you want to argue that more educated people are more careful, I suppose, which you can, but which I don't think is obviously true.

【古琴Guqin】弦上有舟《欸乃》｜The guqin lets you appreciate the timeless beauty of Chinese rivers and mountains.

本曲以柳宗元“欸乃一声山水绿”为题，一叶扁舟，悠游隐逸于江湖，到有风波处寻无波。曲调清新隽永，静中有动，有脱尘寓江海河汉之游，物外烟霞之思。 渔翁 唐·柳宗元 渔翁夜傍西岩宿，晓汲清湘燃楚竹。 烟销日出不见人，欸乃一声山水绿。 回看天际下中流，岩上无心云相逐。 据《天闻阁琴谱》管平湖打谱 演奏：白无瑕...
