Hi @badger, I’ve got a question: what’s your opinion on providing statically built curl binaries on your curl Releases page: github.com/curl/curl/releases ?

I know it’s customary to provide sources and leave building binaries to packagers but IMO curl is a special kind of tool that people usually need once for some constrained environments.

I’ve seen that there are already such repos: github.com/moparisthebest/stat… (that I used myself for armv7!) but I guess it'd be nice to have them in a more “official” way and your CI probably already builds it for various architectures.

Thanks for your time! 👋

I'm aware (and will try to point it out there). 😄

I was commenting to clarify, that there are issues with the build script and people seeing this here would run into problems trying to build/install the package.

Curl being so centric for the distribution and people installing it from other sources (and potentially breaking their systems) eventually ends up being a support case 🙃
The more people are aware of any issues, the better (in my book).

Umberto Eco Makes a List of the 14 Common Features of Fascism

.6 Appeal to social frustration. “One of the most typical features of the historical fascism was the appeal to a frustrated middle class, a class suffering from an economic crisis or feelings of political humiliation, and frightened by the pressure of lower social groups.”

These two paragraphs from Wil Wheaton's latest blog post really sum up how I feel about #BannedBooks and #libraries. It’s a lengthy post, but really quite worth the time.

Unsere Abschiedsbotschaft gibt es bereits jetzt: bubu1.eu/cctg/goodbye/de.html

Computers used to be so easy. The screen would give you a menu of options; you picked one using the keyboard. But then graphical interfaces came along and made things more complicated, especially for screen reader users.

What if any modern e-commerce website could be accessed using a simple menu interface? This is the dream of researcher David Cane.

One of the main challenges for new servers on here is discovering content to interact with.

Relays speed up the discovery process, and allow even a single user server to automatically see a large part of the Fediverse.

There's a new relay service by @astro­@c3d2.social called FediBuzz Relay:

➡️ relay.fedi.buzz

It allows servers to subscribe to custom relays based on tags or instances. (If you use this, can you let us know your experiences in the replies?)

In response to their anti-library lawsuit against the Internet Archive (blog.archive.org/2023/03/25/th…), here is my tiny stand.

As of now, I will never buy a new book published by Hachette, HarperCollins, Wiley, and Penguin Random House. I will source second-hand copies or borrow them from libraries, but never again pay for a new book that will put money into the hands of these content-hoarding corporations.

Úřady práce jako součást boje vlivových oligarchů a jejich dobře placených politiků

"Lhali jsme ráno, lhali jsme večer. Bylo úplně jasné, že to, co říkáme, není pravda. Přitom jsme čtyři roky nedělali vůbec nic. Nic. Nedokážete mi říci jediné podstatné vládní opatření, na které bychom mohli být hrdí." (Bývalý maďarský premié...

16,200 Ukrainian children are known to have been deported by Russia.

Their abduction is a horrible reminder of the darkest time of our history, war crimes.

With #Ukraine and #Poland, we want to help find them by:

- Holding a conference to take all measures needed to establish their whereabouts

- Assisting UN bodies and international organisations in collecting information, including on children adopted by Russian foster families

These children must return to Ukraine.

Rád bych vyzval uživatele, kteří píšou česky a nemají nastavený jazyk příspěvků na češtinu.

Ostatní uživatelé si mohou filtrovat příspěvky na federované ose podle jazyka příspěvků, a podle toho sbírat a poznávat nové uživatele. Pokud budou mít nastavený filtr na češtinu, a vy nebudete mít jazyk příspěvků nastavený na češtinu, vaše příspěvky tak neuvidí. :)

Jazyk příspěvku můžete dočasně měnit i u políčka pro přidávání příspěvků. Je to čtvrtá ikonka se zkratkou jazyka (EN/CS/...)

Děkuji. :)
