Ainda o #SIRESP :

https://www.publico.pt/2025/08/19/sociedade/noticia/alargado-ate-30-novembro-prazo-proposta-substituicao-urgente-siresp-2144330

TLDR:

  • Prazo adiado.
  • A culpa não é do governo, claro, é das “vicissitudes associadas à transição governativa”, porque a transição do governo anterior, que o governo deitou abaixo para convocar eleições e ser o agora actual governo deu tanto trabalho ao governo que o governo ficou, não por culpa sua, sem tempo para fazer o seu trabalho.

San Francisco Billboards - August 2025
Every time I take a Lyft from the San Francisco airport to downtown going up 101, I notice the billboards. The billboards on 101 are always such a good snapshot in time of the current peak of the Silicon Valley hype cycle. I’ve decided to capture photos of the billboards every time I am there, to see how this changes over time. ⌘ Read more

XMPP Providers: A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats

Providers Survey

In May 2025, we ran a small survey to gather feedback from XMPP server operators.
Our main concerns were XMPP Provider’s service and the project itself.
First of all, we would like to thank almost 60 people who participated in this survey.
While the XMPP Providers project currently lists a little more than 70 providers, this is a good turnout.

É preciso ser-se artista: a #AMA passa a #ARTE, a #FCT é extinta. A investigação passa para a ANI (que passa a chamar-se AI2). A substituição da AMA pela ARTE acontece “imediatamente”, mas a escolha do seu director é que não tem data prevista.

Since Fastly acquired and recently shut down glitch.com, some of my ancient webapps are no longer available, nor do I have any plans to make them available again - all had either zero, or very few monthly visits, used outdated libraries and would be a waste of money, to continue hosting and updating elsewhere.

All art archives remain unaffected and all projects shut down before 2025, were already permanently deleted, but if there’s someone out there, still relying on the recently discontinued projects, somehow - you can reach out and request their source code.

These requests will only be honoured, until the end of this year, when we plan to permanently delete, all of this data (both webapps and files only hosted on Amazons CDN).

37C3 and New Year’s Eve 2023
Another one from the vaults. The 37C3 conference took place in
December, 2023. This report was mostly written in January, 2024.

In-reply-to » I was drafting support for showing “application icons” in my window manager, i.e. the Firefox icon in the titlebar:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de According to this screenshot, KDE still shows good old application icons: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/94/KDE_Plasma_5.21_Breeze_Twilight_screenshot.png

And GNOME used to have them, too: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/Gnome-2-22_%284%29.png

I like the looks of your window manager. That’s using Wayland, right? The only thing on this screenshot to critique is all that wasted space of the windows not making use of the full screen!!!1 At least the file browser. 8-)

This drives me nuts when my workmates share their screens. I really don’t get it how people can work like that. You can’t even read the whole line in the IDE or log viewer with all the expanded side bars. And then there’s 200 pixels on the left and another 300 pixels on the right where the desktop wallpaper shows. Gnaa! There’s the other extreme end when somebody shares their ultra wide screen and I just have a “regularish” 16:10 monitor and don’t see shit, because it’s resized way too tiny to fit my width. Good times. :-D

Sorry for going off on a tangent here. :-) Back to your WM: It has the right mix of being subtle and still similar to motif. Probably close to the older Windowses. My memory doesn’t serve me well, but I think they actually got it fairly good in my opinion. Your purple active window title looks killer. It just fits so well. This brown one (https://www.uninformativ.de/blog/postings/2025-07-22/0/leafpads.png) gives me also classic vibes. Awww. We ran some similar brownish color scheme (don’t recall its name) on Win95 or Win98 for some time on the family computer. I remember other people visting us not liking these colors. :-D

The one at the top of the list I'm leaning towards os the SWAG SCT16 Family 4B Media #Camping #Campers

@bender@twtxt.net That was one of the inputs into my research 🧐 So that’s already factored in. We bought our new truck (2025 GWM Canon) recently to replace the ‘ol 2nd hand Nissan Navara we bought that just had too many things go wrong with it, and I don’t have time or energy to learn to be a diesel mechanic haha 🤣 – So yes, the SCT-16 has a Tare (unladen weight) of 2150Kg and a maximum legal (ATM) weight of 2,800Kg.

We saw four deer in the wild, three of which I managed to just ban on film, quality could be better, though. My camera produced a hell lot of defocused photos this time.

Ano passado não conseguimos fazer e este ano pretendemos retomar, só que usando outro nome: #Compoética. Vamos aos poucos divulgar mais sobre o encontro brasileiro de programação criativa em https://compoetica.github.io/CP2025/

  1. é citado um único estudo baseado em testemunhos de alunos (ficam de fora pais e profs), um estudo qualitativo por isso não generalizável. Mm assim, os autores do artigo copiam as conclusões do estudo, e o Público tb parece estar ok com artigos decalcados

  2. os autores do artigo são consultores que dão formação a pais e educadores sobre problemas do digital nas crianças, por isso basear opinião apenas num estudo q os ignora é ainda mais wtf

  3. argumento de q crianças têm acesso a dispositivos fora da escola é parvo - tb têm acesso a tabaco e álcool, por isso tb os devemos permitir na escola? come on

  4. e é muito conveniente clamar pela regulamentação das redes sociais sem especificar a forma (proibir anúncios? introduzir idades mínimas? não sabemos).

No final é o costume, os pais e profs que se desenmerdem, a responsabilidade é deles e não das empresas que criam mecanismos de viciação, claro

They were just fricking everywhere in the entire forest. I counted to one hundred and then stopped. The darker it got, the more fireflies came out and glowed around. :-) There were spots where in under ten seconds I counted 20 glowworms. Super sick. Soooo beautiful. <3

Heck yeah, I’ve been a firefly taxi again! \o/ One landed on my hiking boot and rode along a few meters. It then took off on its own without me having to help it. I saw easily a thousand glowing individuals tonight, bloody cool. :-)

Before I left I tried to call a mate to join me, who apparently wasn’t home yet, though, didn’t pick up. But in the very end I surprisingly met her in the forest and we were super happy to encounter all the fireflies. She also said that today was her first time this year to spot them. I’ll definitely check them out in the next days, too.

Apart from all the glowworms, I also came across some goats, two deer (one of which only the ears showing out of the grass), according to the sounds I sadly must have scared up four more, bucketloads of tadpoles, four big and very active anthills next to each other and three bats to finish the stroll off. I call that extremely successful.

I did a “lecture”/“workshop” about this at work today. 16-bit DOS, real mode. 💾 Pretty cool and the audience (devs and sysadmins) seemed quite interested. 🥳

  • People used the Intel docs to figure out the instruction encodings.
  • Then they wrote a little DOS program that exits with a return code and they used uhex in DOSBox to do that. Yes, we wrote a COM file manually, no Assembler involved. (Many of them had never used DOS before.)
  • DEBUG from FreeDOS was used to single-step through the program, showing what it does.
  • This gets tedious rather quickly, so we switched to SVED from SvarDOS for writing the rest of the program in Assembly language. nasm worked great for us.
  • At the end, we switched to BIOS calls instead of DOS syscalls to demonstrate that the same binary COM file works on another OS. Also a good opportunity to talk about bootloaders a little bit.
  • (I think they even understood the basics of segmentation in the end.)

The 8086 / 16-bit real-mode DOS is a great platform to explain a lot of the fundamentals without having to deal with OS semantics or executable file formats.

Now that was a lot of fun. 🥳 It’s very rare that we do something like this, sadly. I love doing this kind of low-level stuff.

It all started in New York in the early 1980s. Click, now 85, and his friends were sitting at the long bar of the New York Athletic club reading magazine articles about boxing, fencing, judo and wrestling. “One of my mates said, ‘Dude, we don’t do any of those things.’” They had to face it. They were dull. They decided to embrace their dullness.

As a joke, they started The Dull Men’s Club, which involved some very silly, dull activities. They chartered a tour bus but didn’t go anywhere. “We toured the bus. We walked around the outside of the bus a few times. And the driver explained the tyre pressures and turned on the windscreen wipers.”

Once again, I went on a hike onto my backyard mountain after calling it quits very late. This time I brought my cam along. The view was extremely hazy, but the setting sunlight resulted in cool colors. The freshly cut grass smelled wonderful.

I saw a flock of pidgeons circling around and some sort of rat or mouse quickly running over the road in front of me from one field into the next one with a giant nut in its mouth. Or so I at least believe, couldn’t really tell, it happened so fast.

A couple enjoyed the setting sun on a bench and stripped their shoes on this warm evening. Somebody forget their bottle of water on the summit, but it looked rather cool in the evening light:

Not sure what they’re doing, but they now set up scaffolding at the ruin. I heavily doubt it, but it would be cool if they rebuilt the castle. :-)
