Edit: I already could see it, but especially after your post this morning: Your good people, Liam. I'm a huge fan of your approach, I'm sick to death of that insidious crap too. Keep that banhammer slick with blood!

It's KDE, you don't say "Kuh-deh", just like KWrite was just the letter K and the word Write
Some ones like Kate, Krita or Konqueror are one word but they were already a word in their own right, not a word with a K just plastered in front
in reply to Brodie Robertson

The K is pronounced almost like in German and the rest of the word English.
Remember KDE was founded in Germany.

“We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It's easy to say ‘It's not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.”

"Although evidence for the clinical importance of within-patient bacterial AMR evolution is rapidly growing, there is little cross-talk between the fields of microbial evolution and infection biology, which limits the translation of ecological, evolutionary and eco-evolutionary concepts into the clinic"

Another mRNA #vaccine win:

Scientists have developed a cancer vaccine that can deliver treatments more effectively in people who have brain cancer and teach their immune systems to fight back. They’ve tested it successfully in four people now, and are moving on to more testing.

Let me tell you about a people from #Indonesia!

The Bugis are Muslim, but their belief is strongly influenced by their ancestral #religion.

One #belief centres around the Monitor lizard. The animal is believed to have a human #soul & to be the twin of children. They are treated with respect.

Bugis also categorize people into 5 genders. Each is needed to keep the universe in balance.

Bissu, the #gender which is neither man nor woman, is the intermediary between humans & #gods.

I did an reverse image search on this but I cannot find an original source. I highly suspect the image is fake.

Douthat offers a depressing indication that contemporary conservatism might cohere only in the almost-exclusive presence of European descended men.

Even conservatism is more global than this.

@helpers I updated my OS from Debian 11 to 12 (finally) and when I did, apache2 broke. I've got it reinstalled, but I'm 99% certain it's missing required modules. (see: social.jlamothe.net for the error I'm encountering). Is anyone able to help me hunt down which modules I'm still missing?
in reply to Hypolite Petovan

@Hypolite Petovan @Jonathan Lamothe It's working!

Turns out I'd already fixed the problem, I just had to restart Apache.

It also fixed the problem with my Nextcloud instance!

in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

So far (208 days uptime since install) i've liked nextcloud more than any other similar product/service.

I think i'm using the turnkey version, even, which means i didn't have to do anything to get started, really.

We're using it as an offsite synology NAS replacement, mostly. phone backups and the like. I used the calendar extensively for a couple of months, as well, and the aria stuff works *fine*.

in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

Looks like the "News" app is still abandonware. It's such a good idea, but it's hard to trust Nextcloud when even its featured apps are neglected and destroyed by moving-target interfaces. It's like playing Russian Roulette: "if I upgrade my Nextcloud instance, which key features will magically stop working? How will Nextcloud destroy my workflow today?"

Extremely disappointing.
