Gerade eine Stunde geforscht, warum die Admin-Seite unter #Friendica nicht erreichbar war. Unterseiten wie /admin/tos liefen einwandfrei.

Ein paar Issues auf Github zeigten, dass andere das Problem schon hatten. Gab dort aber keine finale Lösung.

Als ich dann log/friendica.log angelegt und schreibbar gemacht habe, war die Admin-Seite wieder da.

Hach, wie ich solche Basteleien liebe.

The little red Chabo bird is fascinating.. No idea where he slept last night.. the other younger bird that sleeps up in the tree survived too.. maybe I can develop a breed that can survive in people's trees and avoid a lot if upkeep.. it think Fukuoka Masanobu had a bunch of JiDori birds living in one of his orchards.. I guess with enough birds you can still get eggs (ummm and other meals) even if foxes, weasles, martens, and Tanuki raccon dogs get a one every once in a while.

What Is Agency and What Is Depression?


[h2]What Is Agency and What Is Depression? [...][/h2]


Around two years ago I told a room full of students studying education that scientists developing new materials was perhaps a bigger niche than computer programming for them to be promoting to their future students.

Scientists Create Biodegradable Packaging Film That Matches Plastic Performance


Biodegradable packaging film represents a breakthrough in sustainable materials. Researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology developed a thin film using cellulose, chitosan, and citric acid. These natural ingredients come from plants, mushrooms, and food waste. The new material blocks moisture and oxygen as effectively as traditional plastic.

I like the "bio" bag and overall concept. I'm wondering if those sandwiches are as hermetically sealed as they look - or maybe there's tear strip. I've seen some packaging here which is easy to open, non-resealable. Looks promising.
in reply to Muse

Hmmm.... this is possibly just slightly more environmentally friendly sounding than what we already have: cellophane.


Mais uma cientista brasileira notável, Dra. Mariangela Hungria, microbióloga do centro de pesquisa de soja da #Embrapa, passou décadas estudando bactérias que retiram nitrogênio do ar e o alimentam até as plantas.

O resultado: o Brasil passou da importação de fertilizantes nitrogenados para se tornar o maior exportador de soja do mundo – usando micróbios em vez de produtos químicos.

Seu trabalho ganhou o Prêmio Mundial de Alimentação de 2025. Mas o prêmio real é a redução de 40% no uso de fertilizantes sintéticos em toda a agricultura brasileira.

Não se trata apenas de soja. Trata-se de um modelo diferente de agricultura: fazer parceria com a biologia em vez de dominá-la.

As mulheres do Sul Global tem muita coisa para ensinar ao mundo!

Interesting. 4K is mostly a lie.

@sundogplanets I've started watching his other stuff now, too. It's really interesting and insightful.

E.g., Elon Musks satellites interrupting telescopes on earth. Prof. Sam Lawler's presentations/writings have been about.

let’s not get started on screen size and viewing distance 🤫



Instead of defending the use of LLMs for polishing up your writing, we could be advocating for unpolished writing. Blog posts with spelling errors and awkwardly repeated words. Emails that sound a bit less warm and professional because you forgot the preamble of "Apologies for the late reply, hope you're well! Thanks for the thing last week".

If there's no budget for a human editor, why should the text meet a "professional" (middle class, formally educated) standard? Dyslexic people can just write how they write and people can deal with it. Autistic people can just say what they mean to say and not waste energy on the double empathy gap.

We can learn to read for a more inclusive world, instead of wasting the planet's diminishing resources masking our differences.

introducing…. gopher.tal!
codeberg.org/notchoc/gopher.ta…
it's a lightweight (~3.2kb) gopher client that tries to be as unsurprising as possible

features:

  • clickable and tab-focusable links
  • keyboard scroll and screen resize
  • support for gopher-search
  • special port numbers (still gotta speak gopher)

would you be better off using w3m/bopher? probably

is this still a web browser written in assembly? hell yeah!

Hallo Server Admins, ich habe mir bei Hetzner so eine Storage Box geholt. Darauf möchte ich tägliche Backups meiner MariaDB Datenbank machen. Die Frage ist nur, wie am besten? Je mehr ich im Netz zu diesem Thema suche, um so verwirrter bin ich.

Daher meine Frage an das Fediverse: Wie ist das beste Vorgehen bzw. welche Lösungen sind für einen Anfänger bei diesem Thema zu empfehlen?

@Friendica Admins #followerpower #askfedi #fragdasfediverse

in reply to ibims

Ich empfehle mariabackup, um eine Kopie einer Datenbank zu erstellen und dann scp, um die Kopie auf einen externen Server zu übertragen.
in reply to Michael 🇺🇦

Das neuere mariadb-backup (ein Percona Xtrabackup fork) ist in der Tat sehr viel mächtiger als mariadb-dump und insbesondere bei grossen Instanzen mit mehr als 100 GiB Daten sehr empfehlenswert, da es z.B. full-table-locks minimiert und so die Zeit reduziert in der die Instanz nicht geschrieben oder gelesen werden kann. Ich kann das auch nur empfehlen, wenn man sich ein neues MariaDB-Backup einrichtet.

Activismo adolescente y pedagogías feministas: pensar lo digital como territorio

Good morning.

Got a call from LBC in London asking if I could come on the radio in 20 mins to talk about the Tangerine Tyrant saying he's going to release all the US UFO files.

Reluctantly agreed, because it's yet another bullshit distraction from some other files.

Good news: presenter was the very sensible Matthew Wright & he agreed that it's all distraction & conspiracy theory wibble.

Better news: he effusively mentioned Space Rocks during the intro 🖖🙂🤘

No, opposing LLMs isn't "purity culture." I've seen this now from quite a few different people, and I disagree vehemently. It is good, actually, to have moral principles and hold to them, even when people with more money than you find said principles annoying.

It's the last of the #cats I've photographed last year, that looks more or less calm ('cos it's sleeping, or, at least, pretending). 😺 All of the rest look somewhat unamused or grumpy. 😾 Maybe I've caught them in inappropriate moment or they just were in bad mood that day. Anyways, it's #caturday, and some more to go, I guess. 🐈‍⬛

Music for today. The song that got Brandon Acker into Baroque music. "Music for a while" by Henry Purcell, with years 1659-1695 given. I guess those are the years he lived (he didn't live very long, did he?) so this piece was presumably written in that time frame. So at least 330 years old. Brandon Acker on the lute with Reginald Mobley on the vocals.

Muse reshared this.

in reply to Wayne Radinsky

I was wondering how contralto fit in there...

I've sung in a couple of community choirs, enough to appreciate good singing. I can more or less hold a tune.



Great cover of Bennie and the Jets!

in reply to Muse

And just one more. Carson McKee, who also sings with Josh Turner sometimes. Great voice!
in reply to Muse

I know! I love them all! I can't believe that it's been fifteen years since Josh Turner started putting up these videos. I found him through Allison Young who has also performed with Post Modern Jukebox. And if you keep going down the rabbit hole, many of my favourite music performers have performed with each other!


@pluralistic Could you say more about your editing workflow? I've been plotting something similar.

You talk about Ollama as an LLM, but it is just a server for running LLMs. I'm curious about which model(s) you've been using and how you set the context window and input for longer articles or books. Do you chunk the content first?

I am immensely grateful to the Fediverse for all the encouragement I got here to embark on a #selfhosting journey.

#YunoHost has empowered my digital life in immeasurable ways.

My way of giving back - and fighting the broligarchs of Big Tech - is to create a guide that demystifies the process. I have compiled all my posts so far in a single page:

If you're curious about self-hosting but you haven't taken the leap yet, I hope my articles will be helpful to you ❤️

This little Chabo chicken escaped from the car carry case somehow. I should be able to grab😨 him tonight for the pressure cooker tomorrow😨😱😰😭.. he's so beautiful, like art work... He was the boss of all the much bigger roosters at a friend's place.. Pear the solid silky will probably be getting a lot of exercise today. Funny to see the pubescent JiDokKo 🐓 roosters (?maybe?) Checking out the scrappy bantam chabo too. The chabo had a goofy voice, I like him... but my Pinoy Bini friends will want to eat him tomorrow..ohh the things we do for friendship and love.😂😃😨😰😱😂😃

exploration! One of the main things I love about Linux is how it empowers me to explore new ways of using my computer and learn new things. While it is possible to learn programming and learn how computers work on Windows or Mac, I've found the the experience much more enjoyable on Linux. On Windows and Mac, it always feels like the OS is trying to hide what is really going on from the user. They may give you a framework to build stuff, but the operating system is a black-box and it feels like the system goes out of it's way to prevent you from looking under the hood.
On Linux however, the system invites you to look under the hood and learn how it works. You can inspect the source code for the entire operating system, and there are plenty of resources for learning how any/all of it works.

We'll be giving a talk at the University Of Victoria on the 6th! Tell your friends at UVic 🐇

Exciting! Don't know if I can make it but I will send someone in my stead if not. A topic I have been thinking about a lot
Merv generally has a focus on sustainability and preservation which I really like as someone interested in archival work.
Anyway, very cool you are giving a talk there. Hope it goes well!
in reply to Harpy

@harpaleon I hope you can! We were thinking of spending the morning at UVic, the person in charge of the computing museum part of the college wanted to show us around, would you like to tag along if you're free?


Got dragged into interesting conversations today, I realized that a few people in my surroundings are at a loss when it comes to proofreading without complex toolchains, or an internet connection.

@rek has written an excellent little guide on how to install and use stardict! Give it a shot, it has been my go-to for years. The synonyms support is especially powerful.
