Okay, guys: this wonderful fan-made series I've been following for years is complete now. It has witty writing, some of my fave Twelfth episodes (including the TV series), great acting, and wonderful arcs for the characters. Lots of references and Easter eggs for die-hard fans too. Give it a go if you haven't already!! #doctorwho #twelfthdoctorfanaudios #TheTwelfthDoctor #PeterCapaldi
Ancora sul caso #Romania. Far emergere il problema della mancanza di una sfera pubblica non proprietaria in un paese corrotto solo quando vince il candidato "sbagliato" suggerisce che la questione che sta a cuore non sia il pluralismo della sfera pubblica, ma la vittoria del candidato "sbagliato".
Sembra che gli sponsor scommettano sul fatto che il sostegno di Elon Musk potrebbe far pendere la bilancia verso il traguardo
"Guidati da X, i nuovi cambiamenti apportati al Kids Online Safety Act rafforzano il disegno di legge, salvaguardando al contempo la libertà di parola online e assicurando che non venga utilizzata per soffocare l'espressione", hanno affermato i senatori repubblicani Blumenthal e Blackburn in una dichiarazione congiunta
X helped make changes to the Kids Online Safety Act during a final push to pass the legislation before Congress adjourns, in an apparent bid to persuade Republican leaders.
Da venerdì alle 14 non sono più visibili Cusano Italia TV e Cusano News 7, i due canali televisivi dell’università telematica Niccolò Cusano, anche nota come Unicusano, il cui amministratore delegato è il sindaco di Terni Stefano Bandecchi. La chiusura dei due canali è stata decisa nell’ambito dell’indagine che la procura di Roma sta portando avanti contro l’ateneo con accuse di evasione fiscale: tra gli indagati ci sono lo stesso Bandecchi e l’ex rettore di Unicusano Giovanni Puoti. Cusano Italia TV e Cusano News 7 erano visibili finora sui canali 122 e 234 del digitale terrestre: l’università ha commentato la loro chiusura dicendo che comporterà la perdita del posto di lavoro per 250 persone. Resterà invece attiva l’emittente radiofonica Radio Cusano Campus.
noo nie ten je spravne.. kolegyn(ňin/nin) mobil, mala hw problém a dala ho do Telekomu, pravdepodobne to opravili a jej sa nechcelo čakať na transfer z jej druhého telefónu do toho opraveného, tak išla do neautorizovaného servisu, pár hodín ten telefón používala a potom zrazu keď chce odomknúť obrazovku je toto... to je všetko čo viem zatiaľ, mne sa nechce ísť zase do mesta sa na to pozrieť ale ešte som sa s týmto asi nestretol... neviem či je to napísané zrozumiteľne
Gemeinsam mit Dr. Annette Jantzen sprechen wir in diesem Advent in vier Folgen darüber, wie die Geschichte von dem Kind in der Krippe damals von den ersten Christ*innen erzählt worden ist und blicken in dieser Woche besonders auf die Rolle, welche da…
A recent discussion on social media about the fact that I enjoy doing #Tactile (#Braille) #puzzles on #paper prompted a thought about producing them to share more widely. #Crosswords, #wordsearches, #Sudoku and so forth.
If anyone is interested, please feel free to fill and share my expression of interest form below.
Also, there was this British magazine called Conundrum. It was in Braille and had all these puzzles you had to solve from crosswords to word searches and quizzes. Pretty cool stuff, just didn't have the space to keep up with the issues.
We were watching a programme about the Winter of 1947 (UK) yesterday. War exhausted Britain, food rations, no central heating, 55 days of constant snow, 20 foot snow drifts, minus 21 temperature, coal shortages, electricity cuts,. Then the worst floods ever as the snow melted, then high damaging winds.
I wonder how we would cope with that. I hope we never have to find out.
I'd never seen the 2009 film Nativity. It was on the BBC last week so we caught up with it on Friday.
I really enjoyed it, the songs were catchy. It was young and predictable and all the rest of it, but the audio-description was my preferred type, less being more and with well-timed updates avoiding cutting through any unheard song lyrics. Old now, but one to enjoy over the festive period.
OK, testers needed. Thanks to @masonasons@fwoof.space reminding me to do so, and the fact that I want to show it to Jake, I brought my AudioQuake server back online. Yes, it's time for an old throwback. Fancy having a go? Download from 3.onj.me/programs/AudioQuake20…
#Dnes3DTisknu rozkvétací lampu pro @Onqa6 a zatím se úplně nedaří. Postavec je v pohodě, ale květ je dost jemný a vysoký, takže se špičky listů při tisku trochu ohýbají a na výsledku je to bohužel vidět. Ještě jsem lehce změnil parametry na poslední pokus a uvidíme, co to udělá. makerworld.com/en/models/13144…
The Blossoming Lamp is an awesome lampshade consisting of 14 interlocking pieces printed at once. Print in place and supportless to boot! When you pull up on the top the flower opens allowing more light out.
My first potential office job was a call centre. Walking around at interview, they were all so proud of the shared space, the open nature, etc etc. All I thought was how sorry I felt for the people on the other end of the phones fighting through all that background noise, and secondarily worried how I'd find my own spot as a blind person in this massive open space.
Michael Sheen v roli prince Andrewa v seriálu A Very Royal Scandal (2024) o odkrývání princových vazeb na obchodníka s pedofilií Jeffrey Epsteina a o jeho fatálním televizním interview na BBC (2019). Tentýž Michael Sheen v roli Davida Frosta ve filmu Frost/Nixon (2008) o fatálních televizních interview (1977), které vedly k rezignaci prezidenta Richarda Nixona. Casting jako součást kompozice filmového díla.
@Alper_Celik similar to previous ones. It talks about potential problems with functions but the actual code has the necessary checks and when I ask follow-ups it is super pollite and continues to ramble without pointing out specifics. I'm getting better at spotting the pattern.
"This experience has unfortunately made me reconsider my support for curl"
I'm sorry you feel that way, but you need to realize your own role here. We receive AI slop like this regularly and at volume. You contribute to unnecessary load of curl maintainers and I refuse to take that lightly and I am determined to act swiftly against it. Now and going forward.
You submitted what seems to be an obvious AI slop "report" where you say there is a security problem, probably because an AI tricked you into believing this. You then waste our time by not telling us that an AI did this for you and you then continue the discussion with even more crap responses - seemingly also generated by AI.
By all means, use AI to learn things and to figure out potential problems, but when you just blindly assume that a silly tool is automatically right just because it sounds plausible, then you're doing us all (the curl project, the world, the open source community) a huge disservice. You should have studied the claim and verified it before you reported it. You should have told us an AI reported this to you.
I'm sorry you feel less enthusiastic about curl now because of this. I hope you after some time in a future will come to reassess what happened here and maybe even understand why we act the way we do.
and (without following this specific encounter) the obvious: The way the reporter allegedly changed their opinion on curl should have been a change of opinion on LLMs and "AI".
Yes, there was disappointment and as a result frustration. But please, attribute it to the actual source, namely the tool having generated the slop report and not to the messenger or even the expert, telling you the report is slop.
@nils_ballmann sure, but I think it is completely human to feel a bit hurt when being shut down like that. Even if they brought it on themselves so to speak. I did my best.
It's IMHO also normal, that it's really hard to redirect this disappointment/frustration/pain towards the actual source. Both as the person friendly and cautiously doing it, as well as the person (forcefully) having to re-evaluate their choices.
And usually, denial is the easiest way out. I just hope that one day, it will get better and people start face their own mistakes.
This is something that I admire with the people around curl: Trying to cultivate a culture in which it's okay that mistakes happen, must be fixed and can be learned from.
@NeoFox @kyle_pegasus apparently I can't disclose them after I mark them spam, which is a bit of a bummer. But it follows the pattern closely of the previous AI report we got that I disclosed: hackerone.com/reports/2871792
## Summary:
The vulnerability in the program arises from a classic buffer overflow, triggered by the unsafe use of the strcpy() function without bounds checking. The program copies data from a...
@kyle_pegasus Gotcha, no worries Daniel, this is educational enough, thanks!
Also, thanks for all of the work you've done on curl! I genuinely had no idea it was maintained by such a small team before; really reminds me of that XKCD where 90% of the internet relies on some open source project that someone has been thanklessly maintaining, haha.

In a previous post on GoodEreaders titled "Embracing Diversity in Literature: E-Readers and Audiobooks," we discussed the Canute braille system. Currently, Canute is one of the best available technologies to assist blind individuals with reading.
1994… Debacle because of the Compuserve GIF format uncertainties regarding Unisys and LZW Patent enforcement… I remember trying to understand in Web agencies if we should convert our GIFs to JPEG.
iirc a bunch of CompuServe-adjacent graphics nerds created PNG, and then the W3C endorsed it. I was circling the POV-Ray forums back then and they did need a 24-bit lossless format.
