A team of researchers from the University of California San Diego and Northeastern University found security vulnerabilities in Shimano wireless gear-shift systems.
You'd think so, and I sure did, but the wireless shifting systems have some pretty compelling arguments in their favor, including "you can shift gears under the heaviest loads you can put on it" and "you can _stand on the derailleur_ and it will take that abuse without misaligning or even flinching."
Sram introduced their new Transmission drivetrain earlier this year, and I finally have it installed on one of my bikes. In this video I'll explain why every...

This post includes recommendations for teams that are procuring websites, and I think they can be summed up as: *buy simpler problems*.
Every feature that gets added via JavaScript is more complex, more expensive, and harder to improve. That means that when things go wrong, they're treble costly to fix. This is because JavaScript is the _"f-it! we'll do it live!"_ of web tech; JS disables or routes around all the ways the browsers try to help.
JavaScript overindulgence remains an affirmative choice, no matter how hard industry 'thought leaders' gaslight us. Better is possible, but we must want it enough to put users ahead of our own interests.
@jamesbelchamber the 2024-2025 calendar says exams should end Friday Feb 1st, and the next semester starts Mon Feb 10th, so still a bit up for grabs perhaps? In 2024 it was the weekend at the end of exams (would be Feb 2+3 2025); and usually it's the first weekend of Feb, but I've also been there around Feb 24th (ok, that was 2008...archive.fosdem.org/2008/) -- and in 2016 it was the last weekend of January vub.be/en/about-vub/key-data-v…

Hi everyone, I am organising LOCO 2024, 1st International Workshop on Low Carbon Computing It's hybrid and will be held 3 Dec 2024, in Glasgow (Scotland) and on line.

I took time off work this afternoon and went through the @gnome european event/swag boxes to take inventory and recycle items that are no longer relevant.
Funny that these days I have been part of some work in GNOME Settings to expose laptop battery health, charging thresholds, etc... While these power extension cords remind me of a time when conferences and hackfests were full of arrangements for power access. 😂
There's also a bigger one folded up that I won't dare to unfold. I can tell is the colorful squared one we used in GUADEC 2013 because I have a photo of me and @federicomena standing in front of it back then. This was in VUT Brno, Czech Republic.
Remember when Montréal was a cosmopolitan city? Yeah, not anymore.
Remember when anglophones believed they had nothing to fear from the CAQ? Yeah, not anymore.
There is something fundamentally wrong with a city that will erase Bonjour-Hi, Bonjour-Woof, Bonjour-Meow, etc. before it deals with OTHER graffiti... OR OTHER THINGS LIKE TRANSPORTATION, TRAFFIC, HOUSING, ETC.
The Bonjour-Hi artwork that blanketed much of NDG last month, to the delight of many residents but the chagrin of the city and borough, is becoming a hot commodity.
Trojnásobný mistr světa, kapitán Československa. Zahrál si za Vancouver, trénoval Pittsburgh. Na olympiádě bral jako hráč stříbro, jako trenér zlatou medaili. Na Ivana Hlinku se ale vzpomíná především proto, jaký byl člověk, kamarád a parťák.

We've been hearing an increasing number of reports of trans people's GPs refusing to prescribe their HRT to them - even if they have a letter from an NHS gender clinic requesting that they do. That's why we're created our new My GP is Refusing to Prescribe My HRT resource: transactual.org.uk/medical-tra…
What we thought to be non-RB turned out to be just non-deterministic. Luckily we know how to deal with that in most cases, though we'd prefer Google fixing the underlying issue 😉 (and yes, there is an issue open with them)
