Hmmmmm, praktisch jede Unibibliothek bietet ja mittlerweile Angebote, instantly weltweit mit den eigenen Forschungsergebnissen gefunden zu werden: mit eigener DOI, per Google Scholar, quasi allen Bibliothekskatalogen weltweit... Diese Möglichkeit auszuschlagen UND zugleich auch etablierte Verlagsmarken - das lässt darauf schließen, dass die Beratung seitens der Unibibliothek in dem Fall nicht optimal verlaufen war.

@molly0xfff almost as if we have maximum salary and maximum net worth

@andypiper Eeyore as well 😔

@cstross
Yes, I meant frigates in the European sense.

The wedgetail is another case in point: the bombardier-swedish airborne radar, I expect, will become the mainstay now, because the US can't be trusted to complete/support programmes.

How are we supposed to remember the great lakes now? HAMES??? That's not a thing.

@JeffBishop Oo ouch, hope you get better soon.

ngl i did not have bill gates being more critical about ai than even linus torvalds on my 2026 bingo card.

When our health care gets sold off for parts, we pay more.

The push to privatization is a significant factor in the cost of living crisis crushing Canadians.

The government must enforce the Canada Health Act and stop the open privatization of health care across the country, especially in Alberta and Ontario.

But that’s the bare minimum. Canadians deserve more than just halting the enshittification of healthcare: we have to win the battle we’ve been fighting since 1962 and deliver head-to-toe health care for all.

Eyes, teeth, mental health and medicine: they’re all part of our health! They should all be part of our universal public health care system.

Well guys, I've gone and done it! New NVDA start and exist sounds from me via eleven labs, lets see what this thing goes and generates.

Join the team! We are looking for a Director of Technology to lead and shape the Sovereign Tech Agency’s technology and research strategy.

In this role, you will lead the development of our technology portfolio: how we identify critical fields of action, where we set priorities, and how our programs and investments complement each other.

@ajroach42 The playdate has been talked about plenty but the game and app library are properly huge now. The OS has been updated and now developers are putting more networking capabilities into apps and games.

I've also picked up an XTEink X4 pocket ereader that has a lot of open source community firmwares including some writing firmwares that support BT keyboards.

The X4 is nice because it's a pretty polished piece of hardware that works well and is available inexpensively but even more interesting is the Open Book Touch. Though I do wish it had physical buttons instead of touch.

Que faut-il retenir du débat entre candidats organisé par le Medef? Peut-être cet éclat de rire des patrons quand Mélenchon propose juste d'augmenter le smic pour les travailleurs. Le premier débat à la présidentielle a été organisé un lobby patronal...
