Use a mask, use Tor.

Today we’re launching our year-end campaign centered on the ways we can care for ourselves and our community: by masking up and using Tor. Anonymity loves company, after all.

Help resist the surveillance pandemic. #UseAMaskUseTor

@freemo Checked Piwigo and it also doesn't support HEIF formats :(

@freemo Thanks!

I don't have a complex use-case, I just need a photo/video storage/organizer. I have the files in personal NextCloud instance, but their Photos application doesn't really work (it's not detecting picture, very limited on how I can organize media).

My 6yo son yesterday during family boardgame time:
"Dad are we in my brain?"
"What do you mean son?"
"What if I'm sleeping and dreaming all of you? What if you are sleeping and I'm just one of your dreams?"

Woah, I wasn't prepared to discuss this so early, but we had a great time.

Looking for an EPUB reader for my tablet with a single use case: reading EPUB books.
No analytics. No crash reports. No sync. No cloud access.
Let me read my book, alone.

@2ck In the article I noticed how the focus was more on the workflow, but the criticism was focused on the plain text nature of the workflow.

And I might be getting too old to handle pure criticism from someone without putting their skin in the game. If the plain text is the issue, maintain a service which converts to plain text and offer it to newcomers. If the tools are the issue, then write better ones. Example, Linus writing git because BitKeeper had its issues.

Without good proposals and skin in the game, the criticism in received a lot more like disrespect (for what has worked for so long) and looks like a power-grab move.

@2ck Apparently this is a requirement by law to provide such report yearly.

Yes, near Zürich. What about you?

My energy provider sent me this nice report with the source type breakdown. More information for better decision making.

Lunduke's argument should cause some discomfort:

if you're out there defending the replacement of master/slave terminology because it *reminds* people of slavery, but at the same time use a MacBook, an iPad or an iPhone, which are produced by slave-like labor, you should rethink some choices.

First recommendation for today's playlist.
Come on YouTube, why do you want to see me cry this early in the morning?

For those who celebrate (or demand) a political stand from companies, media channels, celebrities, a poet once said:

"Your friendship is a fog
That disappears when the wind redirects"

I always pronounced Gemini as "Gem-uh-knee" and today a friend pronounced as "Gem-uh-nigh" so I went to check on the dictionary and it had the latter as the correct one. WHAT?!

I was pretty sure all the documentaries I watched used "knee" - I went back and watched some again, there it is.

Then I found this posted by the NYT.

I'm assuming the protocol is also pronounced with a "knee" given it's name was inspired by the space program.

My maternal grandmother would have been 93 today.
I miss her.

This excellent debate is coming up at (you can watch live via video stream):
