Creating more copyrights won’t get artists paid for the same reason that giving your bullied kid extra lunch money won’t get them lunch. --Cory Doctorow @pluralistic
The answer to AI abuses is not stronger copyright, but stronger labor and privacy laws.
Na hranicích Chebska a Sokolovska se v sobotu nad ránem otřásala země. Zemětřesení bylo mírné. Nejsilnější otřesy byly po 06:00 a dosahovaly úrovně dva stupně. Epicentrum bylo východně od Lubů u Chebu.
Das Komoot an private equity verkauft wird ist wirklich schade. Komoot war immer mein goto tool zur Routenplanung fürs Wandern und Radfahren. 😢
Nach außen wirkte die Firma eigentlich immer ganz cool. Ich hab da sogar 1-2 mal in die Stellenausschreibungen geguckt weil ich mir vorstellen konnte da zu arbeiten.
@outofcreativity benutze seit Jahren TopoGPS, einfach weil es die beste Wahl für Schweden ist (Karten von Lantmäteriet). Ich mag das Planungstool, kenne aber Komoot gar nicht. Kann also leider nicht vergleichen.
@outofcreativity Aufgrund eurer Hinweise habe ich mir OsmAnd angeschaut. Der Hinweis im AppStore unter "Provider" schreckt mich ehrlich gesagt ab... wie seht ihr das?
Přemýšlím, že bych si postavil vlastní domácí NAS server (asi Owncloud Infinite Scale + Immich v dockeru na mini PC). Jenže nemám veřejnou IP (router je za NATem). ⚠️ Jak nejlépe a levně zajistit konektivitu na takový domácí server? 🛜 Levná VPS jen na WireGuard tunel nebo je nějaké lepší řešení? 💡 Nebo se na to vyprdnout a dál platit Google Disk? 💰
Je nějaký důvod, proč to chceš mít doma? Nextcloud jako službu s 1 TB dnes seženeš za pár korun. Když bys nad tím chtěl mít větší kontrolu, tak si můžeš rozjet levnou VPS a k tomu S3 object storage. Já mám vedle Nextcloudu doma ještě Synology a je to celkem mizerie. Stejně pro to musím mít zálohu někde mimo domov a přístup z venku je pomalý kvůli pomalému uploadu.
@Jiří Eischmann @Jakub Cabal Ahoj, Ja zatiaľ fičím kombináciu #vpsfree, contabo a domáci NAS. S tým ako na dobrý S3 storage pomer cena / výkon by som si tiež rád nechal poradiť.
Just last week, two people asked me if I could help them set up a #Nextcloud service and move their data off of the big US tech clouds. It may still be small, but the trend is real.✌️
@stooovie Hard to say. I don't cancel the accounts for them, but they usually pay for it and it wouldn't be very economical for them to keep it running.
@WoundClad @stooovie Getting it for free? Certainly not with the amount of data they have. I didn't mean Nextcloud installations on their premise. I do it for myself, but I don't think it's good every one, actually it isn't for most. By "setting up a Nextcloud service" I mean picking something like Hetzner Storage Share and setting it up the way it works for them like the old solution.
Looks first of all like a troet.cafe specific circunstance @bitpickup, what code is troet running?
The combination of two audio files might be problematic in general. Actually it's not possible over here to upload more than one video or audio and the replay of any of the two files displayed with timer might not work.

Voice of America’s White House bureau chief Patsy Widakuswara, other VOA reporters, RSF & three labor unions file a federal lawsuit against Kari Lake, Victor Morales and USAGM.
Today’s lawsuit filed by my colleagues alleges the U.S. government’s action to shut down the Voice of America is unlawful and unconstitutional, violates our freedom of speech and usurps Congressional control of the coffers. substack.com/home/post/p-15958…
Getting started with XMPP/Jabber and PGP for federated, encrypted messaging
This is a short thread where I explain how I started using the XMPP protocol and PGP encryption for secure messaging. I am not a security expert, but I am a mathematician and I am confortable with the Linux command line. This guide is for people who want to use PGP for secure messaging easily. You will need to be okay with typing commands into the Linux command line in order to do this, but I will tell you exactly what to enter.
Part 1: XMPP
Mastodon is like email, but for social media. You sign up for an account with a server, and then you can talk with any other accounts that are signed up on other servers, as long as your servers are getting along. (No one wants emails from the sketchy spam server, and we want to be able to choose between Yahoo, Gmail, etc.) XMPP (a.k.a. Jabber) is the same thing for text messaging.
Just like signing up for an email/Mastodon account, you need to sign up for an account. You can find a list of servers at list.jabber.at/ and will probably at least need to provide an email addess when making an account.
Once you have made an account, you need a client. On Linux, I've been having a good time using Dino (dino.im/). You can then enter your account name and password to log into your XMPP account and start chatting! There are both public rooms and you can also message directly with your friends.
I prefer the new xeps 0373 and 0374 "OpenPGP for XMPP" (OX) over the old xep 0027, but unfortunately no mobile client supports it yet. Afaik only #gajim and #profanity support it. #xmpp #pgp @caten@mathstodon.xyz

I hate VoiceOver so much that whenever I need to test some web or ARIA thing in Safari, I SSH in and launch the URL from Windows with the `open` command. I was very happy that it actually launched the window in my running UI session on the Mac.
@jscholes Hahaha, that's precisely why I needed to know how to do this. I have the unhappy misfortune of needing to support OSARA on both Windows and Mac, but I can't do actual development on the Mac, so I do it all via ssh. But I obviously can't test it via ssh. :)
@jscholes But after I discovered the "open" command, then I was annoyed that I couldn't get stdout so I could see my printfs in my ssh session. So I went looking and found that article.
There’s a joke about the Unix editor vi, that goes something like: I’ve been using vi for so long, because I can’t figure out how to get out of it. Vim, in my opinion isn’t …

There's a famous library on the border between Quebec and Vermont. The borderline runs right through the library. It's been this way for 100 years and it is symbolic of the closeness between Americans and Canadians. In Trump's Amerikkka wonderful is no longer allowed. So they closed access to Canadians today. Canadians aren't just angry at the insults and threats, we are also grieving the end of a great relationship. cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/us…
🌏 This Wednesday almost 40 mappers joined a mapathon in Prague. They added more than 2300 buildings into #OpenStreetMap in Bamyan province, Afghanistan, where #msf teams are supporting local communities. Big thank you to all the mappers and organizers for their contributions! 👏
In case it is unclear: libgen is good. Subverting copyright cartels is good. Authors getting paid for their work is also good, but copyright does not serve that role and is instead a weapon publishers use to retain control as obligate distribution passages and thus control over payment. Meta being able to vacuum up the commons (without even seeding) and launder it into a tool of mass informational disempowerment and control is bad. Meta being able to torrent while the rest of us can't is bad.
