Episode 67 leads right into episode 68 as Dan takes on the theory and practice of underground librarianship, anarchivism, and shadow librarianship. Links No right to information at public libraries…Cyberpunk Librarian
@val Totally understand. It's not a useless degree, and it never has been. But after working with newly minted librarians year and year, from the Masters to the Doctorate... I've worked with so many people who didn't learn the things they needed to learn. And it's not their fault, that's on their schools. That's a problem with curriculum. I'm sure this isn't a problem with all of the library schools out there but...
I find that a lot of them are somewhat divorced from reality.
Also,… for the sake of honesty: I have been working as a public librarian myself for 11 years: adult section manager, ILS manager, cataloger, circulation desk, etc.
I do not have an actual library degree, either.
I have a master in history, & some administrative paper saying I have followed 2y out of 4 of evening librarian courses (burn out of studiying after 6yuni + these 2y), and I started working following a good internship before I got the paper.

Oh Eugen, ¿it was possible, that the owner of mastodon.social, will do the right thing for once?
Asking for the temporary close down of Jews museums, to separate themselves, from the #Israel #Zionist is a great idea. Many Jews are against israel.
Zionist killed 60000+ people and are #starving a couple of millions. Commiting #war #crimes and commiring a #genocide in #gaza and an #ethnic #cleansing, according to the #ICJ in #hague.
Stop programming for a few hours and read what the world says in mastodon. And don't pretend to be more clever or witty than the rest of the world and the ICJ judges.
Germany and germans are loosing this argument, big time, all over the world.
Israel are #criminals and #murderers since 1948. That is an historical fact as big as the Jewish Holocaust.

With respect, no he isn’t. He’s expressing an opinion that using an historical tragedy to mask abhorrent behavior now is unacceptable. He is entitled to his opinion, as are we all.
He is not suggesting that the offending museums should be closed or that their portfolios should be distributed elsewhere or erased.
The ‘different bar’ is a fair comment, but argue this point, not some other invented offence.

Ubuntu has been confusing me lately. They keep making sweeping changes that rework their entire distro away from the common standards. Yet they seem to be doing so based on extremely shallow reasoning? Why streamline? What bug are your trying to resolve? I know it ain't a size problem cause server isos are tiny. Are they bored?
TLDR; Why they streamlining and please tell me they have a default alias for wget to wcurl?
