In-reply-to » It should be illegal for firealarms to sound a low battery after 10pm and before 8 am.

We had a neighbor that went away for a week, and his fire alarm beeped because of low battery all that time, and we could hear it pretty loud at our place…

I’ve been lost in my DAW for a week now. Making music – especially something along the lines of Metal with actual instruments, not just synthesizers – is so hard. 😩 Makes you appreciate the work of all those artists out there a lot more.

Kids are in bed, dog is sleeping, Marlyn is watching Tv, and I’m on the computer trying to figure out what to do for the rest of the night. Last week of vacation now, so I get more and more interrested in doing things on the computer. Played around a bit with my Risc-v SBC today (Mangopi), it runs debian, got everything updated and all that, thinking about setting up a webserver on it. It has 512mb ram, so it should be fine to host some static website on it.

Dino: Stateless File Sharing: Base implementation
The last few weeks were quite busy for me, but there was also a lot of progress.
I’m happy to say that the base of stateless file sharing is implemented and working.
Let’s explore some of the more interesting topics.

File Hashes

File hashes have some practical applications, such as file validation and duplication detection.
As such, they are part of the [metadata element](https://xmpp.org/extensio … ⌘ Read more

The heat lately and the heat in the coming weeks has been bugging me and getting to me so much that I bought a mobile air conditioner. It eats up a lot of electricity and will ruin my very low power consumption (< 800 kWh per year), but maybe it will help me sweat less. ⌘ Read more

My smartphone story
I’ve recently read a few posts where the authors have shared their smartphone stories. Then last week I got my hands on my very first smartphone again (I’m a bit of a hoarder when it comes to that and still own every single one of my smartphones) and figured why not blog about it? So here it is, my smartphone story. ⌘ Read more

**RT by @mind_booster: This week on my podcast, I read my @Medium column, “Apple’s Cement Overshoes,” about the cynical fuckery of Apple’s sabotage of #RightToRepair, which ensures its devices end up in overseas e-waste landfills rather than being fixed and kept in service.

We don’t have meaningful social connections anymore like our parents or their parents geeration had. We are so scattered, that I am unsure how many of my friends are actually friends and how many are just professional contacts. Everytime I switch job, almost 70% of my friends suddenly fall out of contact. Heck, I don’t even know the people who live in next apartments both left, right, up and down on the same building. Socializing with my friends mean, setting up an appointment weeks ahead to see if we can align on a free-slot and this often involves all of us commuting to somewhere and disbanding by 22:00 hours because family, work next morning, chores to do, doctor appointment and other human things.

JMP: Togethr: Soprani.ca Social
Last week we launched a sister product from the same team that brings you JMP: Togethr.  Why are we launching a second product?  Why now?  What does this have to do with the mission of JMP in particular, or the Sopranica project in general?

Togethr is a managed hosting platform for small Fediverse instances.  It is powered by the ActivityPub protocol that powers Mastodon, PeerTube, and so many others.  While there are sev … ⌘ Read more

Monal IM: Funding campaign: Mac Mini for faster Monal development

Update 15.02.2022 Thank you very much. We reached our target of 1000€ within less than a week. We will order our new Mac mini tonight. Stay tuned for a big development blog post.

Dear Monal Community,

as you know the Monal project is developed by volunteers and has no general funding so far.

To improve the development situation it would be of advantage to have a physical build server for the developers.

Peter Saint-Andre: Cultivating Curiosity
In my drive to hold fewer opinions (or at least hold them less strongly), for a while I tried to cultivate a healthy skepticism about things I believe - for instance, by attempting to question one opinion every week. This didn’t work, at least for me, because it felt too negative. Instead, now I’m working to cultivate curiosity. Here are a few thoughts on the process…. ⌘ Read more

Important notes for LARBS users
Two notes for LARBS users:

  1. Xorg went through some updates last week that changed how it calculates dots-per-inch (DPI) on screens. There’s a chance that you might update and find your font extra large or small. If so, you can just manually addxrandr --dpi 96 to the beginning of your xprofile to set the DPI to the typical 96 (or whatever number looks best).
  2. I have no switched new installs of LARBS from using Pulseaudio to Pipewire as an … ⌘ Read more

I’m getting back into running after a couple of weeks downtime. My left knee is not what it used to be, and I’ve decided to ease back into it. Mentally I’ve accepted that I’ll probably never run 10km in 37:42 again, but emotionally I fear getting slower… As if a slight decline, while saving myself from injuries, would be a defeat.

Important: LindyPress undergoing some updates
Although I haven’t announced in a video on the YouTube channel yet, I’m glad that there’s been a lot of interest in LindyPress.net. I haven’t done a video on it just because there are some details in the site coding we’re still figuring out, but books are already printing, shipping and arriving at some of your houses.
