Hey, Goog, I don't have a TV. I don't know what you're displaying where, but it's not mine. *taps one of the numbers randomly and it happens to be the right one*
A friend of mine was recently traveling in europe.
She got back to the US this week, and sees a LinkedIn invite from someone who she doesn’t know (not unusual) but lives in the area she just visited (more unusual).
Further investigation revealed it was the border control guy who checked her passport at the airport.
@Bri Sometimes, @NoiseBox just gets it so right. Whenever I've imagined a Seeing AI plastic spoke being eaten under a concrete shelter in the past, it's sounded exactly like that in my head.
Development on External Data Checker had been paused for quite some time after one of the maintainers became inactive on GitHub, and I suspect that Endless no longer uses it extensively, internally.
Over the past 8-9 months, I’ve tried to revive some of it by adding some new features, fixing some old bugs, and merging people's PRs that went stale for years. It currently means I'm effectively "maintaining" / "helping" (whatever) yet another thing but hopefully it invites some more contributions.
In the latest iteration of things, we should soon (TM) get support for updating git submodules in it (maybe even runtimes).
This is only loosely part of manifest IOW it's tracked externally, then included into manfiest. It would be great to have it automatically updated as well though to make sure everyone gets to benef...
Thanks for that. BTW do you know what would be the best way to download YouTube videos with this? When I do quick convert it works, but it names the file with something from the Youtube URL, I think. Do you know of a way to fix that? Or am I doing it wrong.
You can convert videos with better file names using converter presets. To access the preset dialog, go to the convert menu and press period (.). In the dialog, there will be a list of presets with names like [default] and [last used]. To create a new preset, for example for YouTube, select an existing one such as [default], then right click it and select duplicate, then you can select the duplicated preset and press f2 to rename it. After that, click the load button and you'll be editing the preset. The most important thing for YouTube is to make sure the destination is File name pattern: %title%.

One of the questions I answered on a vendor security questionnaire this week was “do you have a formal software bill of materials?” so naturally I answered “yes, but since its formal we call it a software william of materials”
I like how the accordionist plays an obvious wrong note at 7:26, but they were about two-thirds of the way through the song at that point, and studio time and recording tape were expensive, so they decided to just keep going. That kind of "happy little accident" would never be allowed in today's highly-edited music. youtube.com/watch?v=NgR5wF_NMB…

just putting a quick feeler out...are you a product person who's interested in helping out with some open source stuff? Specifically, foss designed to help artists/creatives/etc? I'm not doing a full call for folks rn but I'm wondering if I've got moots or other folks this might reach who are like 👀
I know i can turn this off, but how is it useful for Windows Defender to periodically send me a notification saying that "no threats were found"? Does it want a pat on the back or something? Like... shouldn't this be a "no news is good news" situation? And doesn't this encourage people to ignore Defender notifications?
Well I'm detail oriented and weird like that so maybe they're not to most people but I do not mind them. And hi lovely to see ya out here. I hope you have a great day. 😁
maybe it's a security program thing to like attention. My Android phone regularly gives me notifications saying that permissions were removed from 5 apps which hadn't been used recently (the number varies) - that seems useful, except for the fact there is NO way to find out what apps those actually were. Was it that app I downloaded three months ago and never got to looking at? It was it the app which notifies me of nearby asteroid strikes everyday but for which the notification gives enough detail so I never actually need to open the app but I really want to keep getting notifications? No idea!
@Quentin That one at least seems like it provides potentially actionable info (aside from not telling you which apps). "Hey, we removed some permissions from some apps. If you're still using them, you might want to revert that. [We'll leave figuring out which apps as an exercise to the reader.]" In contrast, the Defender one is like... "we did what we normally do continually in the background and didn't find anything. Nope, still didn't find anything. Still nothing. Yup, you got it, still nothing." But one person did reply saying they find them useful, so it seems some people do like the reassurance, which at least makes me feel like they're not completely pointless.
It does confirm that Defender is still running, though yes, nothing actionable. Although I feel mine is worse because mine MAY require some action from me - if it's disabled my app which warns of nearby packs of marauding drop bears and I don't know - maybe I just didn't get any notifications lately because there simply haven't been any drop bear attacks in my area? Or maybe my neighbour just got eaten, and I don't know because my phone disabled the alert I specifically setup the app to give me?

Great, not only does this notification not work like I expect it should - but it broke something in an alternate universe! Why do they keep adding "features" nobody (in this timeline) asked for?!?

@alatiera "I think there is hope, but it demands more voices in tech spaces to speak up about how having empathy for others, or valuing diversity is not some grand conspiracy but rather enrichment to our lives and spaces. This comes hand in hand with firmly shutting down concern trolling and ridiculous “extreme centrist” takes where someone is expected to find common ground with others advocating for their extermination."

Getting closer to Thundermail, Thunderbird Appointment and Thunderbird Send (all dubbed Thunderbird Pro) landing in a wider set of users' hands. It has been a long journey, going from strictly making email clients to offering services (all open source, of course).
I'm excited for the next phase: making the Thunderbird suite of tools, based on open source software and using open standards, capable of replacing the big tech stacks (Microsoft O365 and Gmail/Workspace).

I'm gonna take a wild guess that PFS and PQC didn't help them
Mamdani won young men. He won lower and middle income people. He won non-white voters. All the demographics Democrats say are so important. He won.
But the Democrats backed the old rich white guy, who led with rich white people and nobody else. And they're still mad about it. So what does that tell you about the Democrats?
Australia has so much extra electricity during daylight hours (due to solar) that they're considering offering their citizens basically free electricity during the day.
Imagine living in a country that has the ability to offer free electricity to its own citizens, instead of one that shuts down funding for solar projects.
Australia is an awesome forward-thinking, future-proofing country.
Nie sądziłem, że tego doczekam, to jedna z najważniejszych zmian na polskim rynku nieruchomości.
Prezydent podpisał ustawę o uwolnieniu dostępu do Rejestru Cen Nieruchomości. A to oznacza, że będzie można sprawdzać transakcyjne ceny konkretnych mieszkań.
Do tej pory te rejestry były głównie zakiszone dla pośredników, co znacząco zwiększało asymetrię informacyjną, bo sprzedający czy kupujący de facto nie wiedzieli, po ile chodzą mieszkania czy domy w okolicy.
Zawsze zastanawiałem się, jak to jest, że w UK mogę wejść na jeden z portali, wpisać adres domu i zobaczyć wszystkie jego transakcje z ostatnich kilkudziesięciu lat - daty i ceny.
Nie wiem jak to będzie wdrożone, ale mam nadzieję, że podobnie i u nas. :)
Na razie jest np. taki portal freercn.pl/ - będzie napełniony danymi, jak w lutym ustawa wejdzie w życie.
Przy naszej manii JDG (a co za tym idzie, publicznych adresach zamieszkaniach dla sporej części upper middle class), nie wiem czy to do końca taki dobry pomysł.
@miki A to jest inny problem. Chociaż dla chcącego, te dane i tak były dostępne. Podobnie jak możliwość znalezienia numeru księgi wieczystej (i pesela) po adresie.
