🌍 Země už není bezpečným místem pro život, člověk boří další limity. Tvrdí to mezinárodní tým vědců a svou studii prohlašuje za budíček pro lidstvo. Zbývá čas planetu uzdravit? Ptá se @mskalick, odpoví klimatický zpravodaj Jan Kaliba. #Vinohradska12

Před čtyřiceti lety oznámil americký programátor Richard Matthew Stallman zahájení projektu GNU. To se dnes pokládá za oficiální vznik hnutí svobodného softwaru.…
“Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.”

#Codeberg currently suffers from high load, and we are having a hard time to stay ahead of the scaling issues.
If you mostly test our software or sync your small private projects, consider using https://next.forgejo.org for the time being.
Benefits include:
- it runs on the same hardware and stack managed by Codeberg
- you can make use of the latest features
- better performance
- dogfooding helps the Forgejo developers (please report problems!)
- it reduces the load on Codeberg

A reminder:
If your religion requires you to make sacrifices to follow its precepts - like, say quit a job that wants you to do something your religion objects to - fine, I'll defend your right to practice that religion.
If your religion requires other people to make sacrifices to satisfy your lust for power over them - like banning books or making birth control illegal - then fuck you and your "religion" to the nether regions of the planet.
Your beliefs should not make other people suffer.

Díky podpoře @edri odstartovala dnes na Alarmu série článků s názvem "Nemám co skrývat".
V té představíme důvody, proč si hlídat soukromí a hlavně tipy & triky, jak tak prakticky učinit. Začínáme návrhem Evropské komise, známého jako #ChatControl:

If you have been using #Unity and you wanna jump ship to the nearest competitor, #GodotEngine is gonna be your best bet. The structure of a project isn't exactly the same, but it's similar enough that it won't take long to adjust.
Below, I'll give a few tips and talk about pain points you might run into, to help you try it out properly, and make an evaluation. #GameDev
It's days like today that expose the income inequality. I recently gave a 14-year-old ThinkPad to a family who were happy because they couldn't afford a $300 low-end laptop for their kids to do homework on. Today the Internet is full of people who can't wait to drop $2000 on a phone that is marginally better than what they already have in their pocket. 🤯
PSA: To avoid dooring or killing cyclists when you exit a vehicle, please consider adopting "the Dutch Reach," which is using your hand farthest from the door to open it. This forces you into a position that allows a better view of bicycles approaching from behind. And, of course, first look, *then* open door. Teach your kids, too. #cycling #safety #driving #cars #psa https://www.fraserhealth.ca/news/2021/Sep/do-the-dutch-reach-to-protect-cyclists-and-other-road-users
Life is short. Use the fancy soaps or bath bombs you've been saving for a "special occasion". Drink the good bottle of wine. Burn the decorative candles. That special occasion is today. You made it through everything life has thrown at you and you're still here, god damn it. That's a good reason to celebrate.
Thirty years ago, we thought this only would happen when hell freezes over.
15 years later I spoke to Sam Ramj, then head of MS OSS labs, he told me it would take some time. I thought they were faster in Redmond. :-).
That was 2007. 16 years ago.
Here's the news:
Microsoft open sources MS-DOS. Repeat: The source code of MS-DOS is now #opensource
#msdos 1 and 2, that is. Well, it's a start.
(they handed over the code in 2013, the repo is 5 years old)

Discovered by modder ‘Silent’, the Steam version of Midnight Club 2 is actually the version that the scene group “Razor 1911” cracked back in 2003. Let me repeat that. Rockstar was selling on Steam a cracked copy of its game.
Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap. https://www.businessinsider.com/tech-broken-promises-streaming-ride-hailing-cloud-computing-2023-8
