earthdatalogin by Carl Boettiger streamlines the process of accessing NASA data from the Earth Data cloud program.
It also has a few vignettes explaining "Data Cubes with STAC", "Cloud-Native Access", and even shows how to read some data from a 31 Terrabyte Zarr.

"Winter Song" is my new #painting about those bright winter days of lemon and pink skies, when the air is clear and cold, and the #birdsong rings louder than ever.
As well as the little robin belting out his sweet song, I've included other winter birds: fieldfare, waxwing, redwing, and (my favourites) starlings.
Thanks for looking. 🙏

Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS cartridges use NAND flash for storage , not mask ROMs. Like all Flash memory, they "leak" charge over time and eventually lose data.
The Switch and 3DS card reader tells game cards to "refresh" themselves periodically. gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-s…
But, some users are reporting cartridges already dying, especially ones they haven't used for years. I wonder which of mine already don't work.
Just a reminder that you don't own any data you can't back up. Buying physical cartridges and game cards isn't enough if they're using technology that inevitably deteriorates over time.

I've seen multiple posts through the internet about people worried that their cartridges could die anytime in the future due, and given I have a significant collection, I decided to stop guessing...socram8888 (GBAtemp.net - The Independent Video Game Community)

Hello @Gargron I'm Marton and I run the YouTube channel TechAltar (youtube.com/techaltar) where I plan to make a video about all things Mastodon, the Fediverse & ActivityPub.
Would you be up for an interview? As a fellow Berliner, I'd love to invite you to our studio to shoot it with a proper set or digitally would work too. If yes, please let me know how I can contact you in private or send me an email to techaltar@gmail.com
Wow, what a story.
"Charles Robert Jenkins was growing increasingly uneasy about leading aggressive military patrols near the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), a misnomer for the dividing line between South Korea and North Korea, two nations still technically at war today. Terrified by rumors that his division was being sent to fight in the bloody conflict in Vietnam, the 24-year-old American sergeant made a decision that wrought decades of hardship and regret—and led to an improbable love story."

During his time in the repressive country, Charles Robert Jenkins married a Japanese abductee, taught English at a school and appeared in propaganda filmsFrancine Uenuma (Smithsonian Magazine)

And this leaves me with a dilemma. As a free software advocate, I do not want people using Windows. As an engineer, I want to provide accurate information. My things are Linux and BSD. I last tested this many years ago and was very happy that Windows did *not* boot.
I could gloss/fudge over it and not mention it. Or mention it and say not to use it (because it's non-free). In any case, mentioning it means promoting it.
Thoughts?

Fun stuff: x11-misc/albert used to be licensed #GPL. Then the maintainer decided to arbitrarily make it proprietary with a custom license ("freeware, i.e. proprietary and source available", with a limited right to redistribute binaries for specific Linux distributions). Except that the project has received some pretty large contributions before that, and the authors of these contributions hold the copyright to them. Since the contributions were made under the GPL, they cannot be incorporated into a proprietary project.
On top of everything, the maintainer has *deleted* the issue discussing the license issues, in particular the GPL violation.

in reply to Brodie Robertson • • •No project that actually wants community contributions should be doing this. Honestly, I feel like this developer might just want to artificially inflate his GitHub stars so they can put it on a resume or something. that or they just want free internet points
Either way it does not inspire much confidence that this developer is taking the project seriously.
