@_elena This is my version of a thing I saw a while ago. It's not the prettiest, but it works wonders 🙂
@ekari oh I really like your system! 🤩

@neurovagrant honestly.... the world is falling apart... these things used to be good for at least a decade in the good ol days
@_elena Oh yes 😊 ! Love that idea of using a dymo for that. Is this plastic bags to put them in
And navidrome is so good for music, but be warned: it only gets information regarding the music if *each* file has the right metadata directly in it. So, if it's not the case, you'll have to add/manage it yourself.
@nrdufour thank you for the heads-up Nicolas! Would you say that Jellyfin is better for music in this regard?
Question:
Fuer meinen heute erscheinenden #MeTacheles Artikel, wollte ich mal Feedback zu Laptops abholen.
Gerne teilen, danke!
Welche Features sind dir beim Laptop Kauf am wichtigsten?
No, the EU didn’t ban Apple from including a charger with the M5 MacBook Pro https://9to5mac.com/2025/10/16/no-the-eu-didnt-ban-apple-from-including-a-charger-with-the-m5-macbook-pro/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
@9to5Mac but you can leave it to big tech to blame GoVeRnMeNt ReGuLaTiOnS for just about anything
@nomadwarmachine thought of you when I saw this cover of Tom Gauld's latest collection of comics
@dogtrax That's wonderful - Cagney and Lacey say thank you!
The Free Software Foundation (NASDAQ: RMS) has announced the Free Software alternative to the evil, DRM-infested, locked-down, defective-by-design iPhone: the GNUPhone.
The key technical innovation of the GNUPhone is that it is completely operated from the command line. “What could be more intuitive than a bash prompt?” said seventeen-year-old Debian developer Hiram Nerdboy. “The ultimate one-dimensional desktop! Just type 'dial voice +1-555-1212 --ntwk verizon --prot lte --ssh-version 2 -a -l -q -9 -b -k -K 14 -x' and away you go! Simple and obvious!”
The phone will also serve as a versatile personal media player. “I can play any .au file or H.120 video with a single shell command! The iPod could never measure up to this powerful ease of use.” Video is rendered into ASCII art with aalib. “If blocky ASCII teletype softcore pinups were good enough for 1970s minicomputer operators, they’re good enough for you. Respect your elders.”
Actual successful voice calls are expected by 2030 to 2032. Regulatory approval is proving problematic in the corrupt, corporate-captured US environment. “The FCC said that if we dared switch on this, uh, ‘piece of shit’ in a built-up area in its present form, they’d break all our fingers with a fourteen-pound cluebat,” said Nerdboy. “They’re obviously shilling for Apple, Samsung and Google.”
The second version of the GNUPhone will run EMACS on the HURD kernel and be operated by writing eLisp macros on the fly. “It’s the clearest, most elegant and natural operating environment anyone could conceive of,” said Nerdboy. “Really, we’re not out to destroy Apple; that will just be a completely unintentional side effect.”

@davidgerard but does it run vim?

Bonjour Fedi friends!
I haven't been able to find the micro HDMI <-> HDMI cable for my #RaspberryPi, so I'm now on a mission to organize ALL my cables... Wish me luck!
Oh and once I find that cable I will install #YunoHost on my Pi, so that I can:
1) write about the process
2) install #Navidrome to set up my personal music streaming service 🤗
Update: I found the micro HDMI cable right away but now I feel I need to continue organizing my cables 😅

@_elena Oh yes 😊 ! Love that idea of using a dymo for that. Is this plastic bags to put them in

💅 New look! Users of https://cryptpad.fr will notice that all icons in CryptPad have been refreshed in our upcoming Autumn Release! We also redesigned the loading and creations screen to be much simpler.
These changes are available now on cryptpad.fr and will be released to everyone next week!
@CryptPad Very nice! I have the impression that it also loads faster!

🔒 Debian TC Overrules systemd Maintainers on /var/lock Permissions / @linuxiac
｢ The controversy started after a recent systemd update (version 258) made /var/lock writable only by the root user, breaking compatibility with some existing Debian software that still relies on it for system-wide locks ｣

Looking for alternatives to Israel owned or produced brands, probably your local cooperative or other worker-owned Social and Solidarity Economy has many options.
The catalan coop media Jornal.cat compiled an extensive list, and we're happy to see CommonsCloud.coop (in its catalan name: SomNúvol) in it. Besides the free software community, and various platform cooperatives like @sommobilitat @ecotxe and many locally relevant organisations.

Suited up for the first cold morning working in the backyard hammock.
A selfie of me in my hammock, working on my laptop, wearing my survival suit.
A mirror selfie in my living room. I'm wearing a green, fuzzy hooded survival suit my wife bought for me last Christmas, a pair of felted slippers, and fingerless gloves.
@pluralistic There's the next book jacket photo.
In questi tempi di guerra alla crittografia e di spinte legislative come Chat Control, mi sembra più che mai importante diffondere l'uso di XMPP.
Non solo tra noi scimmiatx, ma anche tra chi normalmente non fa caso a questi temi. Il pericolo è sentito e concreto. L'occasione è d'oro.
Per questo, ieri, su idea di @rico, ho registrato un video che spiega nel modo più semplice possibile di cosa si tratta.
Lo trovate su Peertube:
https://videoteca.kenobit.it/w/tT5nykUqHwkUyros4vng4R
@kenobit @rico il fatto è che affinché queste alternative trovino diffusione client/registrazioni ecc devono essere facili per l’utente medio (scaricati questa app, iscriviti, click click click e sei apposto, vai di foto di gattini…) . A me piace smanettare, ma ai più assolutamente no. Niente plugin, niente tremila addon e opzioni varie ecc. E un client solo, stessa icona e nome, multipiattaforma , se possibile . Se no le persone scappano…. Secondo me….
@CryptPad Is here a before and after?
@OliviaVespera not yet! We'll make one for our upcoming blog post. :)
