Last night, the weather reported that temperatures in England could in the coming days get close to the May record set in 1952.
It’s weird to be in a context where temperatures can over the course of several days more than double (numerically) on where they have been – 14°C => 31°C – but also not reach a record set 74 years ago, 36 years before we officially warned ourselves of global heating.
It highlights how confounding what we are doing is
…We are so very limited in our ability to make sense of the complexity of billions of people pursuing self-terminating modes of living

Hey @ZDF ich haette da mal ne ganz pragmatische Loesung: anstatt eure Inhalte nur in den Mediatheken und auf Youtube zu veroeffentlichen:
a) #RSS
b) #Peertube
Das waere gemeinwohl-orientiert und ihr schafft damit einen digitalen Raum als Alternative zu kommerziellen Plattformen.
So und nun duerft ihr mir fuer dieses Hauruck-Consulting ein Monatsgehalt vom Erik ueberweisen, das ich dann an die UN-Fluechtlinghilfe spende!
@pallenberg @ZDF ehrlich gesagt, die Streamingfunktion von Peertube sehe ich in den #Mediatheken schon verwirklicht. Aber es braucht einen Aufhänger für Diskussionen, die nicht an Konzernmedien gebunden sind.
ich schrieb dazu in der letzten #zdfmitreden Umfrage:
Da ich mich weigere, mich bei Youtube/Google anzumelden und tracken zu lassen, steht mir der Kommentarbereich für Youtube-Videos nicht offen.
Deshalb und grundsätzlich zwecks digitaler Souveränität würde ich mir wünschen, dass alle von oder für #ÖRR-Anstalten produzierten Inhalte auch auf einer heimischen Plattform, z.B. den Mediatheken der Sender, bereitgestellt werden. Ich stelle mir vor, dass die Mediatheken selbst, wie Youtube, Kommentarfunktionen unter den Beiträgen anbieten, und diese mit dem Fediverse verzahnt sind, so dass ich mit meiner Fediverse-Präsenz dort kommentieren und interagieren kann.
Ich habe gehört, dass derartiges tatsächlich angedacht ist, das finde ich super, und hoffe darauf, dass es umgesetzt wird.
The #Fediverse population skews old - I think the median age is in the mid-40s.
So how can we, as older people who have presumably seen some shit, support younger people who are anxious about their personal future and the future of the world at large for entirely understandable reasons?
I mean, I definitely hit some rather low points in my life. But I now have a stable career, gotten out a debt hole, and even own an apartment where I have only 10 years left to pay off the mortgage.
In contrast, young people who need to enter the workforce to pay their bills are constantly told that AI will make their beginners' skills worthless, and there is a high chance that we will soon enter a new Great Depression once the #AIBubble bursts.
Oh, and fascists are taking over more and more countries while the global environment is collapsing more and more.
In other words, young people need all the help they can get. So how can we support them?
@juergen_hubert I mean, we could start by simply asking what they think and what they are looking for?
Das ist keine Übung. Der Vormarsch neofaschistischer Ideen und Parteien ist real. Warum Journalism-as-usual enden muss und Medien ohne klare, antifaschistische Ausrichtung Teil des Problems sind, haben @nadia_z und ich bei der #rp26 ausgeführt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dgKKrGmbkM
Mini excerpt from the livestream! Cardinal part, happy that I switched to this from vcv after dearest @mosgaard’s recommendation.
Where should I upload these things? Full version of the stream. I barely upload anything on youtube. find it extremely hard to keep up with video tools and platforms...
Well, it was so fun. I am so happy about the turnup and the lovely comments. Can’t thank you all enough!!!
Sorry for constant tagging but @meljoann and @thisoccasionalsociety - you are doing great running all this! Beyond the social media bullsh*t. Respect!! Happy I could be a part of it!
And big respect to Mutable Instruments, sadly discontinued but lovely to access this - as macro oscillator is one of my favourites, which you may have noticed in the final part!

@elifyalvac absolute pleasure, I’m a big fan!
@pallenberg Ich denke, das ist ein Light-Vented Bulbul (k.A. Ob der einen deutschen Namen auch hat; Chinesischer Bülbül?) die haben wir während der letzten Taiwan-Reise öfters mal gesehen.
Merlin eBird ist ziemlich gut für Vogel-ID; läuft offline mit downloadbaren regionalen Datenbanken, kennt auch einige Vogelgesänge und ist ein Projekt der Cornell University.
@pmdj uuuuuiiii danke dir
Fujitsu open-sourced their compiler test suite for C/C++/Fortran https://github.com/fujitsu/compiler-test-suite
Slide deck overview: https://llvm.org/devmtg/2025-06/slides/lightning-talk/kawashima-fujitsu.pdf
When was the last time you independently tested your compiler/interpreter?
i am listening to the blarf 'film scores for films that don't exist' album for the first time now, and i think eric andre has done something here that i haven't heard before, and the closest i can come to describing it is making music about what the act of relating experience to music is like, but as a joke, but as deadly serious as music always is https://blarf.bandcamp.com/album/film-scores-for-films-that-don-t-exist
it's also damn good as pure music, it is giving Ghosts I-IV
OH: I don't want to let us being slowed down by (being) a project
😨
I think that is a serious sing that you project management or your development process is in trouble.
They should help your development not hinder it
@pallenberg Faszinierend! Wie lange lebst Du schon in Taiwan?

How I sleep knowing I'm "being left behind" because I don't use AI
That's the best way to sleep, honestly. Not having to worry about the latest hype cycle sounds pretty peaceful.

Nach drei Tagen re:publica geht’s jetzt zu einer kleinen Recherchereise nach Hamburg. Und zwar exklusiv für @astro_geo. Seid gespannt. 😎
Filipínská vláda nařídila policii, aby zatkla senátora Ronalda dela Rosu, na kterého vydal Mezinárodní trestní soud zatykač, píše. Exšéf tamní policie čelí obviněním ze zločinů proti lidskosti.
