When sharing to pretty much any other social media platform, we have a defined URL where we need to send to user to. But with Mastodon, everyone needs to be sent somewhere else...
We can't even ask the event organizer to set their preferred instance, since - for example - a share-button to pretix.social will do nothing for you since you're on infosec.exchange
So we would need to ask the sharing user to enter their home server URL...

Dear metalheads,
so that we can present our metalhead.club poster in a suitable format in clubs and bars, @bestiaexmachina@metalhead.club has set to work and brought the Wacken poster into DIN A2 format.
Da koennen und sollten jetzt noch in etwa eine trillionen Pfeile, Verbindnungen, Logos, Symbole und sonstiges eingefuegt werden.
Was zu sehen ist sind in etwa die Grundstruktur, eventuell koennte\muesste auch noch ein viertes Schema erstellt werden das dann into deep der Kommunikation zwischen den beiden Hauptprofilen und den verschiedenen Plattfrormen geht.
Die Neuronen auf dieser Seite brauchen jetzt aber erst mal einen zwangsweisen mehrstuendigen powernap ..
Das außergewöhnliche am #fediVerse ist @Cheatha, das es die Kapazität besitzt dir ein ums andere mal die Mind weg zu blowen.
Irgendwie kombiniert es semingless dezentral, verknüpft Blickwinkel mit Winkelblicken. Es erschafft am laufenden Band Ansichten die indirekt fast schon zwangsläufige Kreativität erzeugen.
Und damit nicht genug! In Wirklichkeit ist es noch viel schlimmer.
Die Diversität seiner international verzweigten #häckerSzene mit ihrem anarchistischen Charme produzieret einfach immer wieder neue Gedanken welche deine Lebenszeit in faszinierenden creative outbursts verschwenden. 🤷
TBF it's not a simple problem.. you lost the root drive, so linux dropped into a shell to give you a chance to fix it if you can (a lesser OS would simply have bluescreened).
If you're not able to fix it, then nothing linux could do could make that process more user friendly, you're probably looking at a minimum reinstall and possibly hardware replacement.

Obviously. I more meant that the game had all this buzz around it when it launched, then I feel like it went completely quiet, at least in the public eye.
GPD are being weird again - making a claim that the GPD WIN 5 is getting an "official" adaptation with Bazzite Linux but the Bazzite team say otherwise.
We're seeing excitement build up from the Vulkan API release 1.4.340, with a new extension that should eventually improve DirectX performance on Linux.
After cancelling the newer Nexus Mods app that had Linux support to refocus on the older Vortex, the Nexus Mods team now say Vortex will support SteamOS.

Valve have given their accessibility categories on Steam for discovering games a small overhaul, along with a big new Steam client update for everyone.
It has potential but is unfinished. The web app feels quite unintuitive. It has no CMYK support as far as I can see, so forget using it for print. That's a shame because otherwise it looks like it might be quite good when its finished. At the moment though I'd stick with Vectorpea and Photopea for online design apps that will be familiar to Adobe users, even though not fully open source.

“When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system’s game. The establishment will irritate you – pull your beard, flick your face – to make you fight. Because once they’ve got you violent, then they know how to handle you. The only thing they don’t know how to handle is non-violence and humor.” ― John Lennon Plan To Be Nonviolent Resistor Vic youtu.be/aRI7MSXrmOU
Soon after the emergence of COVID-19, the International Committee of the Fourth International made the correct analysis that the pandemic had to be understood as a trigger event in world history. It did not create a crisis in public health, but rather exposed and accelerated longstanding processes: the erosion of life expectancy, the dismantling of scientific institutions, and the subordination of human life to the profit requirements and military-strategic interests of the financial oligarchy.

Soon after the emergence of COVID-19, the International Committee of the Fourth International made the correct analysis that the pandemic had to be understood as a trigger event in world history. It did not create a crisis in public health, but rather exposed and accelerated longstanding processes: the erosion of life expectancy, the dismantling of scientific institutions, and the subordination of human life to the profit requirements and military-strategic interests of the financial oligarchy.
The world has now entered the seventh year of the COVID pandemic, with the United States facing the 12th major wave of infections. Conservative estimates place cumulative COVID deaths in the United States at over 1.2 million, while excess-mortality analyses indicate a substantially higher toll. Globally, excess-mortality modeling places the true pandemic death toll in the tens of millions, with central estimates near 27 million worldwide, far exceeding official counts. Transmission continues at high rates—presently at roughly 1 million infections per day, with more than 240 million infections recorded in 2025 alone. Reinfections are widespread, and Long COVID remains a mass disabling condition affecting millions.
What has ended is not the pandemic, but any acknowledgement by the political and media establishment that COVID-19 remains a major threat. There is zero political commitment to even the meager combination of mitigation, surveillance and data-gathering. This was not and is not an oversight. It is a decision to conceal the ongoing harm that is affecting the entire global population.
The systematic dismantling of public health services in the United States, including childhood vaccinations that have saved millions of lives, is a historic crime committed by the US ruling elite.
Almost all the masks I see are properly worn by people who either: Don't want to give you whatever disease they have. Who absolutely can't have whatever disease you might be carrying.
Oh gee. No wonder the fascists want to murder all us Minnesotans. ;P
I have worn a kn95 style mask since the beginning and so far, never knowingly caught covid. I also have yearly fit testing for hazmat respirators, so I know how to wear a mask like my life depends on it. After being in immediately lethal environments a few times, you become very aware masks save lives in total comfort.
Same @diana 🏳️⚧️🦋. I used to do fit testing so I'm well awareb of masking.
I think the whole respiratory protection thing was fumbled along with physical distancing. Instead of videos on wiping groceries there should have been shorts on masks and how to demonstrate effectiveness to yourself. And KN95 should have been the norm rather than the surgical style. No one wants something randomly touching your lips.

It is built with the Oscean static site engine written in Uxn by @neauoire, who along with @prahou and their respective websites, have inspired me to develop my own.
I have set a goal to write a long form essay once a month with my first being “The Stars in Your Eyes Are Stolen: Æon Flux and Decentralized Power Systems” found here: https://ominous.net/Æon_Flux.html
I hope folks enjoy my little corner of the internet. I intend to expand it often.
I have to write a separate block of code for the parser for each rss feed because they all look different. If you think you can automatize it, more power to you.
@aleph I really love that you included links to the other galleries.
I was considering adding this as a feature to my gallery tool, but then I thought it might be even cooler to have a public list hosted somewhere in a repo where people could add their gallery links via pull requests. I would add an option to the generator that pulls the list and adds it to the gallery every time a picture is added. This way, the list would automatically stay updated. Any thoughts?
Basically I need to pull out two things, a direct link to image/thumbnail, and date.
in the ideal world, the filenames would be in unix-epoch so I could only look for a single line per post. But I know this isn't ideal - I don't like it either, some people use semantic file names, or tags, which makes more sense for accessibility.
But! As long as the feed has <link>direct://url.to.image and <pubDate>(that's rss valid) That's fine.
Also if pubDate was in UTC-0, I wouldn't have to do magemathical formulas :')
@tml This is not my own writing, and I doubt this is what C. H. Ting is suggesting either(that was written prior to openfirmware), but keep pulling on that thread and it may lead to why this language was chosen as a front-end for users to interface with.
No, no, this book is like a .. early "Learning X for idiots", the author says you don't need to rely on a language's high priests to learn how to do any one thing, the language will enable the average cretin to get where they want to go.
@lritter Relative to 1984 it might be accurate, however. Like BASIC is not really that easy. It's easy to learn but that's not the same as it being easy to do things in.
@mcc the key is datalog. i saw an inkscape in there, a game engine, a database system, the important bit is flattened composition, and a visualizable approach. hard to explain. i go entirely by intuition.
I have both, but I meant to share this segment when the guest says none of the standard programming languages are appropriate for the end user, not even BASIC.
forth shares a weird attribute I also see in scheme: It allows for neat high level DSLs and very abstract code and it's clear that's the intention of the language, but the fundamentals are in some ways even lower level than C
it has "spatiality" which fires a part of my brain that only some 2D cellular automata do, which I find quite interesting from a UX perspective since it's usually not something that we content with in most programming languages.
⏰ If you’re heading to #FOSDEM2026 and feel like ending the day with good conversations and Belgian beer 🍻, we’re getting close to closing registrations.
Together with @nextcloud @openproject and @passbolt we’re hosting an informal evening in Brussels. No talks, no pitches — just people from the open-source ecosystem catching up after a long conference day.
