I've just published a new page on my website documenting the last 3 months on an art residency exploring fire through the plant aiteann (gorse) and its relationship to sitka spruce: shanefinan.org/VAP/15_aiteann.…

This was part of the international research project investigating wildfires called FIRECULT. For the project, I created charcoal and made new drawings, made work with fire, and created two new video artworks.

@foaylward to shift all that manufacturing capability into the US? billions for sure, plus a multi-year lead time and significant yield losses in the first decade of operation, and likely a fairly significant loss of functionality / capability in the process. if you want to add upstream material supplies to the list, the cost rises sharply, as does the lead time. not to mention the likelihood of multiple private monopolies developing in the process, with knock-on cost issues.

@gsuberland oh for sure. I was musing about the cost of a single iphone if everything was made here. Assuming the transition was even possible (which I don't think is the case) they would run for ridiculously high prices.

This blog post doesn't mention Nextcloud Talk's "High-Performance Backend" at all, so it's a mixed message. Is the HPB needed, or not?

Also, when will this code be integrated with the default Nextcloud Talk app by default, so additional installation and maintenance is no longer needed for basic app functionality?

Another security tip: Don't use Debian or LTS distros. Those distributions constantly use outdated software and usually only fix security issues if they have a CVE number.

Ubuntu also does not guarantee any fix to "Universe" packages. Even well known software with critical security issues might not get fixes, if the package maintainer loses interest (this for example happend with Mozilla Seamonkey webbrowser in the past!)
