I just saw that Kentaro Miura, the creator of #Berserk has died. I never read his work myself but I've only heard great things about it.

Bruce Schneier coined "feudal security" to describe the dominant Big Tech security model, in which you surrender your autonomy by moving into a warlord's fortress (Google, Apple, Facebook, etc) and in return get protection from the bandits that roam the badlands without.

The historian Stephen Morillo pointed out that this is more like "manorialism" than "feudalism."

I just discovered librespeed.org which is a free and open source internet connection speed test service. Sorry speedtest.net, nothing personal but if it's #foss I just can't resist it. Bye!

Please stop spreading fud like Docker services using more resources and coming with a huge overhead.

It's not a virtual machine, it's really just a (fairly convenient) frontend to a bunch of kernel features, like namespaces & cgroups.

If you don't want a container-like abstraction on your system, that's totally fine, but please, don't make up silly arguments against it.

CDC sez you can ditch the mask if you're vaccinated. Being maskless can now be seen as a signal of having been vaccinated. Do republicucks:

A) Suddenly embrace masks as a symbol of defiance (again)

B) Get t-shirts and hats to remind *everyone* that they are, indeed, unvaccinated (because it was all about signalling in the first place)

Taking all bets!

@petros IMHO such a monitoring should be based directly on openstreetmap data where trees are already mapped. Existing tagging scheme can be eventually extended if needed: wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ta…
This will ensure that the data remains fully open and can be used anywhere osm data is used

I am now preparing a proof-of-concept installation for communities who want to monitor trees in their area.
The direct need that made me work on it is the situation now common in Poland, where local authorities, together with developers, cut down an enormous number of trees without or clearly against the consent of local communities.
All hints and helping hands/minds welcome.
