"Nuremberg trial records made available online after painstaking 25-year project
Launch of digitisation project marks 80th anniversary of start of legal effort to bring Nazi leaders to justice
A fully digitised collection of the records of the Nuremberg trials is being launched online to mark the 80th anniversary of the start of the groundbreaking legal effort to bring Nazi leaders to justice.
Open access to every official document from the trial, held by the Harvard law school library, will be available to all researchers, whether amateur or professional, for the first time from Thursday after a 25-year endeavour by a 30-strong team of historians, metadata curators and librarians.
It began in 1998 with the removal of staples and paperclips from the delicate documents so they could be scanned."
(via the Guardian) 👉
"Search thousands of historical documents from the Nuremberg trials.
Examine trial transcripts, briefs, document books, evidence files, and other papers from the trials of military and political leaders of Nazi Germany."

Starting from a bit of the sound check, time for two and a half hours of live music. Tonight being Bob's actual birthday, here's the music from his party!

Known risks when running and using #curl and libcurl
> When there is a remote attacker already present in the server, curl cannot protect its operations against mischief.
Does that mean that if I wanted to fetch an URL from a malicious server and write the response to stdout, but the server managed to trick curl into saving it to a file with server-controlled filename, despite the commandline options, that would not be a vulnerability in curl?
Heeeyyy Fedi!!! I have a question that I *know* a bunch of you are going to be able to answer.
For the past couple decades I've wanted an electric guitar, but my ex always shot it down. So, now that I've escaped that abusive relationship, and with it nearing the holidays again, I've decided I'm going to finally get one.
Last time I played guitar was in middleschool (and some bass in highschool), so I'm starting from scratch.
My constraints:
- 6 string electric guitar
- under $200
- used/hand me down is great
- pink would be awesome
- probably right-handed (because that's what I learned on)
Does anyone have a recommendation (or better yet, an old guitar near Seattle that could use the sweet, sweet love of a new owner?)
I looked at Amazon (🤢) and found something that seems like it fits my needs, but I hate supporting them, *and* I have no idea if it's garbage or not.

Happy Birthday, Bob Sarnowski! Today, on his actual birthday, At 7 PM EST, HKC Radio is pleased to have Bob's Birthday jam, recorded on November 14 at his party.
Look, we can all complain about religion all we want, but the Protestant Church in the Netherlands in the city of Kampen who have been holding an uninterrupted mass for over a year to protect a family of two parents and five kids (21, 15, 11, and 4) from deportation are fucking heroes. This family has been in The Netherlands for 12 years, so these kids know nothing of the place they came from (hell, two of them were born here and have never seen their parents' home country), and deporting them would be insanely cruel.
Why the long mass, though? Well, according to Dutch law, law enforcement is not allowed to enter a church (or other house of worship) as long as a mass/service/etc. is underway. As such, members of this church take turns holding mass, and 2000 of them have been keeping this up for over a year. The family has its own little area in the church, but they can't leave the building. The kids are taught by local teachers inside the church, and the 21-year old does odd jobs in the building. So yeah, they've been inside for over a year.
Turns out this "church asylum" thing has actually been attempted over 50 times since 1978, and it's been successful at times.
I almost bought a house in Kampen a few years before meeting my now-wife and moving to Sweden. Had that not happened, and I managed to buy a house in Kampen, I would've joined this church in a heartbeat to help out.

This feels exclusionary to me though, deaf-blind users should not have to pay for the right to consume your episodes. Living Blindfully had some of the best transcripts out there during its time, it would be incredible if whatever technology was used there could be incorporated here too.

Notebook sticker situation update! We have now reached maximum capacity.
I realised I put the W3C sticker (featuring the new logo, too!) upside down. 
Most of the new stickers came from B-Side Label Japan.
And thank you for the repair sticker, @mgifford!
World governments are trying to ban AI. Here's a comment I just saw that I agree with:
"Advanced AI is the most truly democratizing force the world has ever known, and that is why it is being attacked by so many privileged people (all of whom are quite happy with the status quo thank you very much). Suddenly, as a result of advanced AI, all their connections and their expensive degrees—advantages they and their kids leveraged of to cut ahead of the poor and marginalized and help themselves to the best educations and housing and medical care and food and and cushyest jobs—DO NOT MATTER ANY MORE. Any dirt poor kid with a third-hand laptop or even smartphone can learn anything, build any kind of software, make amazing films and screen them worldwide. The words the elite hate to hear more than any other are, "WE ARE DOING THIS WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION". And they hate it most of all when it's coming from people they had convinced themselves were powerless to disturb their privilege. AI, AGI, and yes, super-intelligence, are for *us*; the people. We are not giving it up so they can leave us to die in a ditch while they sashay smugly back to their yachts and leafy retreats."
I'd like to know who wrote that comment you reposted. In other words, please cite your source.
While some critics of AI probably do fit the description in that comment, IMO the best criticisms focus on how AI actually further concentrates wealth and power, in the hands of the companies who own the AI models, as well as the companies who will use AI to replace labor (or at least try very hard to do so, whether it actually works or not).
