@DerMolly das Programm ist in Folge eines Kreuzband-Abrisses abgestürzt und wird derzeit medizinisch versorgt.

@aral get well soon 🤕

@RLetot @lrhodes and like all tantrum forks, it's probably going to go really well.

As a next step, AI companies are now offering "their" browser (read: Chromium ever so slightly themed with some company bullshit built in)

In part, this is certainly done to have yet another way to crawl the web, but this time user-directed and indistinguishable from actual human requests.

@Codeberg AI companies crawl our websites.

We ask that they stop by using the industry standard robots.txt

AI companies ignore those rules.

We start blocking the companies themselves with conventional tools like IP rules.

AI companies start working around those blocks.

We invent ways to specifically make life harder for their crawlers (stuff like Anubis).

AI companies put considerable resources into circumventing that, too.

This industry seriously needs to implode. Fast.

@Merovius even before that, they were a weird trade off with a lot of dopamine for a very small amount of people (mayyyybe the top100?) and a lot of dread for everyone else.

I'm glad global leaderboard will not be a thing going forward.

Definiere #Autokultur: Umziehen: Für ein Kinderzimmer? Scheißegal. Für ein Arbeitszimmer? Wumpe. Für Ersparnis beim Fußweg? Haahaha lolnope. Um einen Angehörigen zu Hause zu versorgen? Alter! NEIN! Wegen einer Flutkatastrophe? Pech!

Oh, bei Zeitersparnis bei der AUTOSTRECKE, da dann kannst Du Umzugkosten über die Werbungskosten bei der Steuer absetzen.

@rozeboosje @aral 4. Actually enforce those laws.

@fleaz re: re: revert

@jascha recently I needed to give my phone number to a student.

They came back to me "your number doesn't work"

I double checked it, it was correct.

"I can't find you though?"

I am looking like a car in that moment, saying "what do you mean, you can't find me?"

They were typing my number directly into WhatsApp. It did not even occur to them that someon could just ... not use WhatsApp.

@aral @Codeberg My Github Profile now looks like this:

https://github.com/ccoenen/

Sometimes it really does help if a lot of people comment. The #ActivityPub issue was reopened by #Gitlab:

https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/11247#note_2603598572

#Gitlab just closed the issue about supporting #ActivityPub. Kai Armstrong says "our current focus isn't in this area".

This is very sad, I really think this could have been a pretty good match *espacially* for Gitlab. It could have been a puzzle piece in how to do federated open source coordination. You know, the problem with "not wanting to be on github, but kinda finding it convenient everyone has an account already".

Rendering to AV1 in @kdenlive only uses very little CPU at any given time (screenshotted 17% is the absolute maximum I've seen. It alternates between 7% and 17%). I wonder how long it will take to encode one hour of video this way. Not sure what the bottleneck is, here.

(edit: added a slightly better screenshot)

@Erdrandbewohner auch: Menschen, die eine Verbeamtung anstreben, sind nicht unbedingt Menschen, die eine Revolution anzetteln.

@kicad wtf?! X11 is barely on life support. All major distributions switched to Wayland as default *years* ago. Ubuntu will remove X11 in 25.10.

Kleines Detail für Firmen, Museen und sonstige Attraktionen: wenn ihr Adresse oder Anfahrt auf der Website habt (und ihr solltet das haben): packt doch ÖPNV **als erstes** rein und erst danach Autos/Parken/Autobahnen. #Autokorrektur

@aleksorsist @kicad this is not cool.

@obrhoff it is so revolutionary that even in #StarTrek itself they need it to not be perfect. Repeatedly, food from it gets mocked. It can't do some chemicals. It conveniently can't do weapons or whole starships. Lesser civilisations only get simpler versions that only do water...
Items that then get traded...

@aral it is historically accurate that in the french revolution not a single merge request was refused. Not one. It was simply unheard of.
