A new main instance means a new #introduction:
I'm Loki, a neurospicy, anarchist artist, fan of buckwheat pancakes and who thinks he's a coypu, unless it's the other way round 
I do digital art, linocuts, cyanotypes and letterpress printing. It's very often with angry animals and questionable puns, always with anarchist and progressive themes and vintage aesthetics.
As I'm an anarchist, I give digital version of my creations away for free. And because I like to eat and have a roof over my head, I also sell prints 
You can find my portfolios, my free downloads, my shops and all my links at social.lokipropagand.art

GIMP 3.0 Stable Being Released As Long-Awaited Update To Adobe Photoshop Alternative
After some 13 years of writing about GIMP 3.0 development, today is finally the day: GIMP 3.0 has been tagged and is in the process of being released...

Nice!

Underappreciated benefits of giving blood include: the fact that if you're wildly depressed and generally despising yourself, you get 1 (one) day of feeling like your life had meaning and purpose.
You get free KitKats too, but everyone mentions those.
That's the dadgum truth, right there.

Since this got so much attention, I'd like to use this moment of sunshine to invite you all to read with us next week:
Agreed.
I don't think "disability advocacy" went wrong at all, this "differently abled" shit is from the 90s when wheelchair users had to crawl up the Capitol steps to get the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), when "nothing about us without us" became a slogan because it was such a common problem.
"Differently abled" and cripspiration came from abled people trying to manage their own fear of mortality and their own discomfort around the concept of disability.

"By establishing that data protection extends to gender identity and explicitly forbidding surgical requirements, the Court has created a powerful legal framework that transcends national barriers. This ruling provides both protection and recognition. It tells every trans person in the EU: your lived identity matters, and no government can erase it through bureaucratic obstacles."
Kohler added this is far from just a victory for refugees in Hungary - "it's a declaration that across Europe, your gender is yours to define, not the state's to dictate."

@fazalmajid It installs rbtlog and tools. That's what we use to verify whether apps can be built reproducible (i.e. byte-identical), thus confirming they were really built from the very source code they claim, with nothing added or taken away.
Apart from that, developers can also use this to just build their apps, ensuring they are always built from a clean tree at the specified commit, and thus making RB easier.
Proper documentation is still on our roadmap; until then: gitlab.com/IzzyOnDroid/repo/-/…

After a delicious dinner, we went for a digestive walk with the midnightsun and making some survey. Of course I used the Osmand app with Quick Action function, Streetcomplete and took pictures with Mapcomplete.

For our "automated builder setup", I've just prepared a PR adding support for RPM based systems. The PR is still marked WIP as I don't have any RPM test system at hand here – so I'm calling out for help:
Anybody willing to test the setup scripts on Fedora, RHEL, CentOS or the likes? 🙏
(more tests on Debian-based systems (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint …) are of course welcome, too)

A new version is out, with a new theme! Ever wanted to map all those little wayside shrines (such as maria statues along the road)?
Now you easily can: mapcomplete.org/wayside_shrine…?
Thanks to @gedankenstuecke for creating it!
Other improvements:
- Added a question if toilets are supervised and have handdrying facilities
- Many bug fixes (e.g. the charge for specific objects in vending-machines now works again)
This map shows shrines found on the side of roads and paths, and allows adding new onesmapcomplete.org
@april Under 'menu' -> 'download' there are various download options to further process the data; you can embed mapcomplete in an iFrame or create another mapcomplete theme which shows this layer together with other layers.
As usual, all the data is from/goes to #OpenStreetMap, so you are free to reuse the data.

About the last boost.
If you ever read the GNU Coding Standards, especially gnu.org/prep/standards/standar… where it says, "Avoid arbitrary limits on the length or number of any data structure, including file names, lines, files, and symbols, by allocating all data structures dynamically",
That document is from 1992, when that advice was okay. But that wasn't a time when every software may end up processing malicious data from the internet. So, we end up putting limits everywhere now, which is fine.

Good on Sebastian and on the companies that stepped up!
Also, recursion is often bad.
#oss
@lettosprey can we qualify this a bit more?
Unbounded recursion that causes attacker-controlled stack usage is bad. It can be easy or really friggin' hard to mitigate. You need to maintain a depth counter in your state somehow, and even then, it's hard to pick a limit when you don´t know how much stack is consumed per level.
Not all languages have tail recursion. Not all cases where you'd want to use recursion actually admit tail recursion.
(Rust would have the same issue here.)
