Yep. I saved hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month just from switching from Substack to self-hosted Ghost.

I pay a roughly flat $85/month now (~$75 for mailsending, $10 for hosting), vs. 10% of all my subscription income.

Here’s some napkin math for how expensive Substack is compared to its competitors, assuming that roughly 7% of all subscribers will pay for their subscriptions, and that subscriptions cost $5/month.

Ich halte es für komplett verantwortungslos angesichts der leider sehr realen Gefahr einer möglichen zukünftigen AfD-Regierungsbeteiligung Maßnahmen wie die Vorratsdatenspeicherung auch nur in Erwägung zu ziehen. Ihr liefert damit ohne Not einen schlüsselfertigen Überwachungsstaat frei Haus.

The EU initiative Going Dark has now been launched by the EU Commission. They call it ProtectEU.

It’s a rebranding of Chat Control. New name. Same old propaganda.

The EU Commission’s goal is to “access encrypted data in a lawful manner, safeguarding cybersecurity and fundamental rights.”

Yesterday, I took part in a press conference to talk about the urgency of the climate crisis.

It was at the invitation of @JoergAltSJ , a Jesuit priest and author who is a life-long campaigner for human rights, justice and those in need.

Today, he entered a prison in Bavaria to serve a 25-day sentence. His crime? To have disrupted, for a short while, the flow of traffic. He did it to highlight the lack of sufficient climate action. He refused to pay the fine - so now, jail.

concept: a show like ramsay's kitchen nightmares, but about software instead

"i'm at spunkchute, a SaaS company that owes $2 million to AWS and is on the brink of closure”

"oh my [bleep] god. the main database server is running Ubuntu 8.04 and has two backdoors and a coin miner. SHUT. IT. DOWN.”

maybe it's social media, maybe it's being kicked in the head by a horse, but i feel the need to prefix every blog post with

Putting out a bounty on the person who implemented this infuriating lift display.

S-Bahn-Netz Rheinland: Zwischen Köln und Düsseldorf stoßen die beiden Verkehrsverbünde VRR und VRS aneinander, und ebenso die Zuständigkeiten der Aufgabenträger Zweckverband VRR und go.Rheinland. Neben mehreren Regionalzuglinien gibt es mit S6 und S11 zwei durchgehende S-Bahn-Linien; weitere Verknüpfungen der beiden S-Bahn-Teilnetze sind geplant. go.Rheinland hat nun eine Machbarkeitsstudie für eine Linie S17 von Bonn über Köln nach Opladen vorgestellt.

Oracle are denying a breach to @BleepingComputer, but the threat actor has provided an archived URL which suggests they somehow uploaded a file to the Oracle Access Manager (SaaS solution) frontend.

Wüsste gern von SPD und CDUCSU, wo in ihrem Koalitionsvorhaben die Millionen Menschen vorkommen, die gegen den Rechtsextremismus auf den Straßen waren.

Und von den Medien wüsste ich gern, wieso so oft der Eindruck entsteht, dass es diese Ängste und Sorgen gar nicht gäbe.

My name is Rose LaCroix. I am a published author from the USA currently in Leverkusen Germany. If you have work for a native English speaker anywhere in the EU, I am available immediately.

I would be excellent as a proofreader for manuscripts, articles, or academic papers in English.

I could also proofread legal documents, assist English teachers, and much more.

I have a BA in social science from Portland State University and a German certificate of equivalency.

This is what fascism looks like.

As someone arrested at a campus protest last spring, I have major qualms with how the Biden administration handled campus dissent. But it was nothing compared to what we are in for now.

Our reaction to this statement will help decide if Trump's regeime is able to consolidate power to form the strong-man dictatorship he envisions. Our reaction should be to protest in force across every campus while wearing MASKS.
