Oh, I need this for lots of things! Not just computers! Good start, though.

No More Parts Guesswork With iFixit’s Device Compatibility Checker



OpenAI is using Studio Ghibli-style memes as an ad hoc promotional campaign for its new image generator—despite Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki's famous hatred of AI. Sam Altman even made his X avatar a 'Ghiblified' portrait.

Disgracing Miyazaki is part of the point: It's more proof to the industry's biggest boosters that they have won—that they're free to use, appropriate, and commoditize art however they see fit.

So many things that don't get considered when writing fiction about time travel. I once wrote a story about the beginnings of time travel and how much computation would have to go into it so that you wouldn't end up blasted from landing partially in a wall, or alternatively dying from asphixiation in space. This video talks about the diseases you would have to contend with. Reminds me of the Connie Willis novel Doomsday Book.

La revolución del #SoftwareLibre en el arte digital

La película de animación «Flow» creada con #Blender es la punta del iceberg

#Flow y otras muchas obras audiovisuales

Sursiendo reshared this.

in reply to Sursiendo

Una pequeña incorrección: el software libre *no* es gratis. Suele serlo, pero no tiene porqué. Tenemos ejemplos como Ardour o los mismos plugins de Blender. Lo que no quita que sí sea cierto que no pagas por una «licencia de uso» porque realmente compras el progrema ejecutable.

Pffffeew. Had to read it a few times over to understand this is a ->preparation<- holiday and not the summit location itself.

Good to understand the summit is in Munich itself....

@voorstad @dan So Sorry for the confusion! We had our yearly Nextclouders off-site to plan the next year of all things Nextcloud - with the Summit as a focus! Looking back, it's clear our enthusiasm in the moment lead to a bit of confusion — sorry about that!

For added clarity: The Nextcloud Summit is June 5th 2025 Munich, Germany

in reply to It's FOSS

I'm going to suggest that these are great on a local terminal, but the original commands may be better when using a remote terminal (particularly with a low bandwidth connection) and all that's practical with low resource embedded devices.

By all means, use the new tools, just saying users should learn the old ones too.

Does make sense in a way... @brave is the only cross-platform #FOSS browser that comes with an #adblocker and non-Big Tech search engine out of the box. Defaults matter, @mozillaofficial : ) I still support the your good stuff, btw.

Hopefully, #Midori by @astian can be the second one especially as it's not based on Chromium.

I'm proudly self-hosting Nextcloud since 2018. In that time, I've upgraded continuously from Nextcloud 13 to 30, transitioning early on from SQLite to MariaDB, all thanks to @crits's fantastic guides and scripts. Along the way I've upgraded MariaDB and PHP as required. (I have another PHP upgrade scheduled before I upgrade to 31.)

I only have two daily users, but by now I have a high level of trust that Nextcloud will continue to serve our needs for file storage, address book, calendar (and more) into the future.

in reply to Amin Girasol

@fluidlogic @crits Wow, thank you for expressing how happy you've been with using Nextcloud for so long - with many more years to come!
in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

@fluidlogic @crits

Yeah, that would be cool if you did not start enshittification early with all the AI stuff you're doing.

We never get any response from you on these topics.

Looks like you only read positive comments.

Thats unfortunate. Things we dont like also allow one to improve.

in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

"stable" as in my desktop client keeps harrassing me about failed attempts to sync a .md file created with Nexcloud web UI. I mean, this is use case 001. And Nextcloud fails at it so badly I am considering migrating to something else entirely.
Just drop all of your AI bullshit and maybe get file sync to work flawlessly first?


1/ NIH-funded research has come under a new level of fiscal scrutiny under Trump, sending shock waves through biomedical research.

Trying to upgrade my recording setup. A Patronizer donated a really nice mic, but I need a space.

Moving to the bathroom reduced background noise, but made recordings sound hollow. I have zero cash for padding right now, but I do have a pressure bar and a tablecloth. We'll try that.

in reply to Michael W Lucas

What mic is that?

Also, given your environment you might benefit from something like this:

My at-home algal cultivation hobby is going well. I am surprised thst soil samples are the best for growing new green algae - more so than pond water.

in reply to Frank Aylward

oh that sounds fun, hope you'll find time to write up some notes online!

No carbon source is interesting - I wonder if you use defined media that means lower chance of contamination as well. That would be great for a teaching model too.

in reply to naturepoker

@naturepoker this is Bolds Basal Media - fairly standard. I buy it as a premixed powdet at phytotech. Some bacteria still grow, but not too much to swamp out the algal colonies
