I need to apologize for taking generalstrikeus.com/ seriously and encouraging people to sign up.
Discord is not praxis, and I can't take anybody seriously who doesn't understand that.
Discord's security is a joke, and they're only "free" in the sense of "if you're not the customer then you're the product," same as Meta.
These folks could have gone with a _truly_ free and secure platform such as Matrix. Opting for Discord and describing it as free and secure means they're clueless.
*sigh*

Look, if you put your resistance org on Discord, you're saying, "We don't mind if the government can access the entire chat history of everyone in our org and eavesdrop on us in real-time," because Discord is an American tech company, and there isn't a single American tech company that has shown any willingness to resist the Trump administration in any substantive way.
Any resistance org using Discord is either dangerously incompetent or a false flag.

The dynamic between G'Kar and Londo in #Babylon5 is a uniquely funny, and beautifuly tragic story that has few equals in the TV sci-fi genre. screenrant.com/babylon-5-londo…

"Top Commerce Dept official sent a blistering email to his former colleagues on his way out the door Sunday warning that #Trump admin is poised to unduly enrich #Musk’s satellite internet co. w $ for rural broadband.

“Stranding all or part of rural America w worse internet so that we can make the world’s richest man even richer is yet another in a long line of betrayals by Washington,” wrote Evan Feinman, who had directed the $42.5 bil broadband program for past 3 yrs"

It’s that time of year - people asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain what they’re up to.
Please #repost.
Every #queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce new queen #bees for next year!
So this is important to share.
Thank you.

..be harmful to #bumblebees. Usually once she takes on some sugars & heats up she’ll happily fly off. Don’t bring her indoors for long periods! If she has already established a nest and laid eggs she needs to get back to sit on them to keep them warm - yes just like a hen!

Thank you for reading and caring.
PLEASE #repost.
Don’t just like, #share.
The more informed, the more queens survive and the more #bumblebees we have.
Simple.
Our native wild #bees are in serious trouble and we need to be there for them every way we can.
Thanks again for helping!
For caring.
For sharing.
A little bit of good in a world that so needs it.

Hey @IzzyOnDroid, is there some documentation on how to opt into supplying custom build flavors to your repo and enabling reproducible builds? I'm working on a new release for Claw (github.com/msfjarvis/compose-l…) and wanted to prepare a Sentry-free build variant for users of your repo.
in reply to Harsh Shandilya

Apologies for the late reply! No idea why your toot didn't show up here (was just brought to my attention by a team member).

And yes, of course: either open an issue in our tracker (gitlab.com/IzzyOnDroid/repo/-/…) or just ping me from yours, and we'll look into it. Thanks!

Trošku jsem dneska ladil všemožně po intenretu obsah pro #VHSky, takže trochu promo:

Kim Robinson yoga banner
PolyKitSynth banner
Film archives banner

Zrovna teď válí Anonradio svůj živej setík #hudba

Přibyla výborně zpracovaná #jóga na rozhýbání těla i ducha od Kim Robinson

Archives od New Ellijay a films od @Fedi.Video jsou plný filmů, ke kterým skončily práva, takže pokud máte rádi #film z doby, kdy ještě nebyl masovka, určitě mrkněte

Pokud máte rádi hrabání v elektronice, objevil jsem pro vás PolyKitSynth

Snad se vám něco z toho bude líbit a pokud máte někdo nějakou vlastní tvorbu - v podstatě čehokoliv, určitě se o ní s náma na VHSkách podělte.

Hledal jsem nějaký vaření a to na Fedi snad nikdo nedělá. Díry na trhu jsou! :)

I moved the #Friendica Wiki to another server. I need some people to test it and see if all works. I will then solve the problems pointed out.

The initial setup was not done by me. It was still on a server with php 7.4 because it did not work with 8.x due to some plugins. I removed those plugins, apparently not maintained since 2014.

I also saw that it loads some js from some CDN, I don't like that either, so tips welcome on that. Maybe there is a plugin that stores such stuff locally?

Also can you suggest a free service to analyze your webpage, show problem, broken links and such?

I saw that the Avatar (only a systemwide standard avatar for all users) is not displayed in my Firefox, but looks fine on Chromium. May be a DNS issue, so local issue only, seems tailscale some how messes up my DNS resolution. But please have a look for any embedded stuff that does not load!

Send me screenshots if you like and/or links to the problem page.

The problem with defer is that all the code using g_auto* and friends will have to be rewritten, given the mismatch between the two. I don’t particularly like the fact that we’re deferring the execution of a block instead of tying it to a type declaration; it feels wrong and overly C-ish, in a bad way.

thephd.dev/c2y-the-defer-techn…

in reply to Emmanuele Bassi

hmm, yeah I know this style isn't without precedence but it does seem rather clunky, almost the the point it counters the convenience of g_auto.

It also comes at the cost of another keyword, something long avoided by C (pre-C23 anyway) which I'm not sure it merits especially as C23 gives us annotations, making something closer to cleanup quite appealing.

In fairness I've not read the full post yet, perhaps I'll be convinced otherwise!

So far it seems largely be a new footgun source…

The beginning of Mozilla, for those of you who haven't ever seen this before, it's a snapshot of a really interesting moment in the history of #opensource software.

We had a great time at #csunatc25! Thanks to everyone who came to our presentation, apologies to those who got turned away because it was full! Don't forget you can find all the info from the slides at nvaccess.org/csun

Have a safe trip home everyone!
