Doing some software archaeology with @jimmac today, looking at webOS on the Touchpad and Palm Pre.

It's very cool to see how far ahead of its time this was, and also how many elements from it survived in GNOME in some form! And of course, the multitasking is still unmatched by any more recent mobile platform :)

Imagine you’re the most valuable company on Earth. Billions of dollars of cash on hand. Best engineers in the world. You could legitimately leave an impact on anything you work on. And one of the primary things you choose to focus on is stubbornly policing fucking game emulators. Like forget about whether it’s good or bad, it is just so unbelievably small minded. An Apple running on all 8 cylinders wouldn’t have time to give a shit about stuff like this.

Jsou emigranti z twitteru a chtějí být na sebe hodní. „Uživatelů Bluesky je málo,“ hodnotí Koubský

> Bluesky zatím nedosahuje popularity své zavedenější konkurence. Zatím má asi 22 milionů uživatelů. Konkurenční X přitom měsíčně aspoň jednou navštíví přes 600 milionů lidí.

December 1st! You know what that means. Show off your advent calendars! Or other non-denominational calendars full of stuff. I wanna see them!

Here is mine. Hubby filled it with #HazbinHotel cards. Also, one of my best friends made a personlized selection of 24 small surprise items. Can't wait 😊

(Hubby's getting #MtG cards. Kiddo is getting #Pokemon cards. We are a nerd family.)

Next Generation Internet projects adotta Mastodon e PeerTube come principali canali di comunicazione

@Che succede nel Fediverso?

Dopo il recente abbandono di Twitter da parte di NGI, ben sedici progetti Next Generation Internet (NGI) sono lieti di annunciare la transizione a @Mastodon e @PeerTube (sul nuovo canale @Next Generation Internet che raccoglierà i rispettivi materiali video), due piattaforme open source europee, per le loro esigenze di comunicazione e condivisione di contenuti. Questa mossa strategica è in linea con l'impegno di NGI nel promuovere un Internet che incarni i valori europei di fiducia, sicurezza e inclusione.

L'utilizzo di piattaforme sviluppate in Europa come Mastodon e PeerTube rafforza la sovranità digitale, assicurando che l'infrastruttura digitale europea sia basata su valori di apertura, collaborazione e rispetto dei diritti fondamentali. Questa transizione segna un passo significativo verso un Internet più incentrato sull'uomo, riflettendo la visione di NGI per un futuro digitale affidabile, aperto e inclusivo.

Ecco quali sono i 16 progetti

It seems like our joint stand with @forgejo at #FOSDEM2025 has been accepted, thank you @fosdem!

For those of you that don't know, #FOSDEM is an annual conference for free and open source software taking place in Brussels. We'll be there throughout the event to exchange words and/or stickers with some of you.

See you in February!

Za mě naprostá pecka 👍 Mimo pár scén, dle mě poněkud přitažených za vlasy to bylo nabušené od první minuty do poslední. Bylo to silné, odvážné, smutné a lidské.

#introduction

As I just joined social.coop, it may be a good time to re-introduce myself.

I studied architecture and organization development, and work now at tangente.coop supporting community-led and non-speculative #cooperative #cohousing projects in #Spain.

Also experienced in sustainable and people-centered urban develoment, and urban #cycling #mobility.

I love and support #FLOSS #freesoftware, digital autonomy and libre culture in general.

Musk could use the ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ for self-enrichment

He’s said $42.45bn spent by the US for rural internet isn’t efficient. His Starlink company stands to benefit if he reduces that investment

^{George Chidi (The Guardian)}

To reduce having to search the web each time, I added a bunch of frequently asked questions about #systemd such as using journalctl and systemctl in a more efficient way.

Are you using #linux and systemd to its fullest? Have a look at linux-audit.com/systemd/faq/ to see. Anything missing?

Feedback and boosts much appreciated to make this section even better 🤠 💪🏻

As there seems to have been another uptick in participation here, a quick summary #introduction (fuller one is pinned). I'm a UK-based (Londoner now living on #isleofwight) folklorist. Started off interested in #folksong, spread to wider interest in #folk #folklore.

Did an MA, liked it, so did a PhD on Contemporary Belief in #Ghosts - uhra.herts.ac.uk/handle/2299/7….

Currently on the Council of the Folklore Society, Associate Editor of its journal Folklore, & on the editorial board of #FolkMusic Journal. Until end of year I'm Research Fellow on #FolkloreWithoutBorders research network on EDI in British folkloristics.

I've written on #ghostlore, folklore about #rats, #cannibalism at sea, tongue twisters, popular representation of folkloristics. Increasingly working on folklore's history. Shiny research profile here: researchprofiles.herts.ac.uk/e…

Hi Mastodon. I'm Mick, a wildlife guide based in Granada region of #Spain. I'm looking forward to connect with fellow birders, botanists & entomologists throughout the Fediverse.

Regularly out in the countryside of Andalucia & further afield posting info & images about my adventures & encounters with the natural world.

Here's a photo of a close encounter with Iberian Lynx I took a few years ago.

I've come to understand what's happening in frontend's decade-long failure to deliver decent user experiences as a sort of epistemic closure. I'm calling it "frameworkism", and the epicenter is now React.

Here's a lot of words on why we should all reject it, and what the post-React world should look like:

infrequently.org/2024/11/if-no…

If Not React, Then What?

Frameworkism is now the dominant creed of today's frontend discourse, and it's bullshit. We owe it to ourselves and to our users to reject dogma and embrace engineering as a discipline that strives to serve users first and foremost.

Nigel Farage suggests MPs should debate rolling back abortion limit

Reform UK leader says it would be ‘worthy’ discussion and parliament should get more time ‘to debate things people talk about at home’

^{Ben Quinn (The Guardian)}

This is making the rounds on Finnish social media.

A large association for Finnish construction companies, #Rakennusteollisuus, decided that they needed an English version of their website but apparently they didn't want to pay an actual #translator so just used some free #LLM with hilarious results.

They've fixed it now, but for a short while there was some comedy gold to be found.

P.s. I didn't find these, I've no idea who did.

Oggi alle 10.45 c'è l'evento IGF Italia Giovani per dare voce a software libero, fediverso, educazione!

P. #Blanár najprv na ministerstvo nabral 146 novych ludi a hned na to¹ ide inych 40 prepustit. Zdovodnuje to potrebou setrit, o ktorej v zasade tusili/vedeli uz aj pred volbami a urcite vedeli pocas naberania tych novych.

Blanár rozbehol čistky, vyhadzuje aj elitných diplomatov

Minister zahraničných vecí Juraj Blanár (Smer) rozbehol jedno z najväčších hromadných prepúšťaní v porevolučných dejinách tohto rezortu. O prácu prišli diplomati s veľkými skúsenosťami, ktorí mali dvadsať- a viacročnú prax v pozíciách veľvyslancov.

Amazing what €750 million can accomplish. How much donations are going to rebuilding South-Lebanon?

I wonder.

Here it is: the Finnish Parliament has sided against #ChatControl !

I am overjoyed that in their statement, they have outlined exactly what this proposal would entail: mass surveillance in Europe.

From their statement (translation by me):

"..the suggested model would, in fact, lead to the mass surveillance of communication and would weaken the integrity of communication in the EU."
