I've added support for the fediverse:creator tag to our articles (github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p…) so hopefully it will work going forward.

Don't particularly like the idea that only those approved by each server admin get to show up, so it might work and might not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ guess it depends if your server admin likes us or not but I've added it in.

@realcelticgamer I've read that and don't really care either way, it feels like people again moaning at Mastodon because they're the biggest - and this is a *good* tag idea to have that other fediverse platforms should adopt anyway so why try to force it to be just for Mastodon, that seems backwards to me

in reply to NASA

Wilsonville, Oregon-based ESS Inc. built on NASA’s early work as the company developed its own flow batteries using only iron, salt, and water.

ESS flow batteries are designed for power grids that are increasingly powered by intermittent wind and solar generation. The company’s systems store up to 12 hours of energy and are used to provide backup power to critical community facilities.

“Buh, Aral, #Fedora is a volunteer project… you a nasty bum-bum criticising us for shipping an operating system without a functional screen reader by default for EIGHT YEARS…”

Meanwhile, in reality: “The Fedora Project is not a separate legal entity or organization; Red Hat retains liability for its actions.”

Who owns Red Hat?

#IBM.

What is IBM? A 150 billion-dollar corporation.

Cut the “we’re volunteers” bullshit, acknowledge your ableist culture, and do better.

DRM lease protocol support finally merged for GNOME Wayland - great for VR fans gamingonlinux.com/2024/06/drm-…

#VR #Linux #GNOME #FOSS

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

if anyone is confused: in the context of Linux, "DRM" stands for "Direct Rendering Manager" and has nothing to do with copyright enforcement.

I've been gaming on Linux since the days when "DRM" meant "that thing that crashes every other day," and I still do a double-take sometimes.

It's wild how much value you get out of an indie title sometimes. "Sometimes" really feels like a bit of an understatement.


Some one asked in DM how to identify ants. So here is my method:

The best resource online is

inaturalist.org/

This is an effectively peer-reviewed database of correctly identified photos of insects.

To identify an ant search for "ants" then set your region to the location where you saw the ant. Look through the photos until you see a match.

Great news everyone! I finally talk about AI hype. Someone finally mentioned LLMs one time too many, and the reckoning is upon us:

We are about to have the longest night of the year in Australia. We don't get so much of the snow that people in the North get during their winters, but we have been experiencing sub-zero weather here in Hurstbridge VIC Australia. I'm having a hard time functioning BUT it's all more light from here on in! WOOHOO!

About two years ago I went to a presentation here in Santa Cruz by the daughter of Drake of the Drake Equation and the near head of NASA's (I could see him in the background in the control center when the JWST was launched.)

Anyway, they were describing how the coefficients of the Drake equation have increased because of the recognition that there are more planetary systems than originally thought and that the moons in those systems may be better places for life to form or exist than the planets themselves.

(BTW, I only belatedly realized that back in the 1970s that I worked at SDC for the person who headed the Apollo moon program. He thought I was a troublemaker. 😉

i keep them for hauling shopping (the smaller ones are soaked to a pulp and made into art paper). One box (pink-striped) drew comment from a cashier "ooh you have a lovely box!" at which i blushed and giggled "Yes i do". The floosy has commented on my box ever since ;)
in reply to Muse

CBC Radio has a national call--in radio program and the topic one Sunday was "what do you collect?" A art professor from the college I was intending got on the show. She collected boxes, she said. "What do you put in them?: "Nothing. I just like boxes."
