Fevereiro 2023 - Os deputados finalmente perceberam que o problema é complicado, europeu, e não adianta alterar a Constituição.
Estamos assim em condições de nos juntarmos ao debate que acontece um pouco por toda a UE desde 2016.

How I archive my favorite TV show to get rid of Amazon Prime
I’m a fan of the German TV series “Notruf Hafenkante”, which is shown on the public broadcaster ZDF and is also available on their website. New episodes are released weekly, and older episodes are also made available on a regular basis. After a few months, however, they are no longer available for free. At the moment I have to buy an extra subscription for a Prime Video Channel to be able to watch all the old episodes. But that makes me dependent on Amazon, and I d … ⌘ Read more

La discrète et coûteuse quasi-nationalisation d’Orpea
La nouvelle ne surprendra que les plus naïfs : la Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations va devenir l’actionnaire majoritaire du groupe Orpea, qui s’occupe de maisons de retraite et connaît d’importantes difficultés financières depuis plus d’un an.

Time Domain Audio Compression at 3.2 bits per Sample
Audio formats typically fall into one of three categories: “lossless”,
“complicated” or “bad”. After developing a
simple image format
last year, I tried to come up with an audio format that fits neither of these
categories.
In other words: a format that is lossy, simple and quite ok.
Naturally, it’s called QOA — the Quite OK Audio Format.
