You're on a ship hurtling through space and your crew's best engineers report that critical sub-systems - from water filtration, through to HVAC and food pods - are all failing. Evidence of sabotage. What do you do?

"Governments failed to reach a consensus [...] Many were forced to leave the talks early to catch flights, and negotiations were suspended at 8.30am when fewer than half of the countries were present"

The concern here is that old search engines can give you links and you can go into them to verify the content. AI taking over our search engines hides the sources of information, forcing us to blindly trust the AI and wherever it got its information from.

Happy 53rd birthday, Unix! 🥳

I tried it with Talkback/Google Chrome, and it's much less nice there.
I got one of those for Christmas a few years ago, and was disappointed to discover that it is not a true synth anymore like the originals. It now plays tiny little samples and has aliasing. BOOOOOO!

Almost done preparing the @loops Android APK!
While we'll target the Google Play Store for Android users, I would love to also support F-Droid with the goal to get into @IzzyOnDroid
That means I'll have to open source the mobile app, but that is already a goal
Laugh all you want, there are few open source TikTok alternatives because few see beyond monetization and when removed, you are left with pure creativity and community-driven content.
Excited to see what we'll build together!
The APK is currently 34MB, but I can slim that down further.
It was over 160MB earlier this evening 😅
Grass is pretty amazing.
I was out at the farm, doing the regular fall chores and prepping beds for garlic, when my glasses lens fell out. The screw is, of course, gone. But I need my glasses to drive. Enter a natural material that's abundant, strong, flexible and able to hold a knot.
It got me home. Thanks, grass.

#eyegrasses Day 4 update
(To be read in the voice of German filmmaker Werner Hertzog)
At first, I found the blade of grass to be a simple solution to a problem. A satisfying answer to a question asked by circumstance. Then it became, I admit, something of an amusement. That was a fool's error. Now it is not me who laughs at the grass, but the grass which laughs cruelly at me. It sees me, and by extension all of humanity, stripped of our modern contrivances, naked before it, and it mocks us.
The end of an era. On September 24, I used a blade of fresh grass to temporarily mend my glasses after one of the screws fell out in a hay field. I just hoped it would last the day.
Today, 39 days later, it finally started to slip, and I put a metal screw back into the hole. Thank you, blade of grass. You served me incredibly well. Amazing stuff, grass.

Soul Searching is an offline music application for Android 8 and above. It's a rework of the native mobile application Sweet Music using Jetpack Compose.
This was quite a journey fighting compression algorithms (Fedora using zlib-ng instead of zlib), but thanks to joint efforts and hard work of the author (thanks entername74!), it was finally made RB 
Btw: 313 apps / 26% now 😉

When you visit somewhere exotic, is there a standard souvenir that you try to buy, to remind you of that place? Stickers, lapel pins, spoons, beer mats, tea towels, postcard books?
For me it's dictionaries. This turned out to be not so wise a choice when I visited six European countries in 2015.
