In the late 1980s, Radio Belgrade 202 was sending software over radio for download.
Back in the 80s, devices such as C64, the ZX Spectrum, and the Yugoslav self-built Galaksija were using cassette tapes for storing data and programs.
In Yugoslavia, there was a radio program that would play such a cassette on air, people would record it at home with a cassette, and then they would have a new game or other program that they could load into their computer.

Good Morning #Canada
December 15th, 1964, the Canadian House of Commons votes 163 to 78 to approve the red Maple Leaf flag. The vote put an end to years of conflict over the Liberals proposing a new flag, and gave Canada a new symbol for its upcoming 100th birthday celebration. In 1960, Lester B. Pearson, then Leader of the Opposition, declared that he was determined to solve what he called “the flag problem.” To Pearson, this issue was critical to defining Canada as a unified, independent country. As the newly elected Prime Minister in 1963, Pearson promised to resolve the question of a new national flag in time for Canada’s centennial celebrations in 1967. Traditionalists fought for their beloved Union Jack while a younger generation wanted a new modern design to represent Canada. Thousands of designs, some truly ugly, were considered and rejected, including Pearson's preferred flag. I think we did OK in the end.

Good Morning #Canada
I finished my breakfast this morning only to discover that it's National Maple Syrup Day. A missed opportunity but at least I can share some important facts about Canada's sweet and sticky sauce.
- Indigenous People taught early Canadians how to harvest maple sap and boil it down into a sugary liquid.
- A maple tree can yield sap for up to 100 years, but the trees must be roughly 45 years old before it’s first tapped for syrup making.
- It takes roughly 40 gallons (150 litres) of tree sap to produce 1 gallon (3.8 litres) of syrup.
- Quebec produces 72% of the world’s maple syrup. In 2021, that equaled 133M lbs from Quebec.
- The big bottle of Costco Maple Syrup is from Quebec.
- Maple Syrup only has 1 ingredient. Sap.
- Maple Syrup has an indefinite shelf life but should be frozen if storing for more than 2 years.
And regarding the great Maple Syrup heist, this is still the best report on that famous crime.

So, the last two days of ripping/encoding went well, very happy with the new encoder module and the overall results. The `svt-av1-psyex` encoder did awesome work, and there's nothing like seeing a 6.5GB file get reduced down to 190MB without a noticeable loss of quality.
The last show took about 1.5 to 2 hours to encode per episode, thankful that I had more than one encoder running at the same time. Gonna call everything a success.

Ever since I learned about the confirmation bias I keep seeing it everywhere:

Sensible human: Nimm 09:38!
Mein Gehirn: WARUM SIND DA KEINE ZÜGE ZWISCHEN 10 und 14 UHR ????????

My initial thoughts as I read through the Canadian summary:
- While it mentions a political revolution in the U.S., with Trump removing or ignoring controls on his powers, it doesn't talk about how critical their midterms are.
- If the Democrats fail to take control of the House and Senate, then 2027 and beyond will be worse. Trump, senile and aging badly, will be a puppet for the worst elements in the U.S government.
- There's a real possibility that midterms could get canceled outright as Trump seeks absolute power.
- Smaller risks, in terms of impact, are food and health safety.
- The U.S. is removing all restrictions on profit in their food chain. Inspection agencies are being dismantled and legislation eliminated. Yet we continue to import goods from them.
- The anti-vaccine strategy at the very top is leading to surges in COVID, flu, measles and more. How long until that spills over our border.

Good Morning #Canada
Supreme Court Justice Sheilah Martin announced her retirement effective May 30th, opening up a vacancy on bench. It's a good time to review the process on how a Canadian #SupremeCourt Justice is chosen, and why we mostly avoid controversy and politicalization of the process. Mostly...
Supreme Court judges are shortlisted by an independent advisory board process, emphasizing candidates who are highly skilled, functionally bilingual, a judge of 10 years on their regional court system, and specific regional representation (3 from Quebec, 3 from Ontario, 2 from West and North, 1 from Atlantic). The PM then recommends 1 of the candidates to the Governor-in-Council for formal appointment.
The new process and legislation was introduced by PM Martin in 2004 and PM Harper attempted to ignore it (surprise). PM Trudeau strengthened the process in 2016 but also tried to alter it for Quebec. But mostly little controversy.

Part 3 - Moving forward
One of Mastodon's strengths is its decentralized structure. That also means no centralized marketing or development strategy focused on growth, particularly in Canada. Perhaps a volunteer group could take on that development plan and grow the Canadian user base.
- A vision of what an ideal future state would look like would benefit the planning and action steps. Collecting input from Canadian admins is recommended.
- We shouldn't burden existing admins beyond their current responsibilities. Volunteers would take actions like reaching out to politicians or government agencies.
Potential next steps:
1) Host a web meeting with interested Canadian admins to collect input on a shared vision for this project.
2) Collect volunteers who would be interested in reaching out to politicians or government agencies about creating a presence on Mastodon.
3) Select members of the group to be part of a steering committee.
4) Create a unique hashtag for this project for reporting and followers.

Es gibt mehrere Schlachtfelder:
1. Leuten die ins Fediverse wollen helfen. Hier passt der dezentrale #diday super.
aber vertrackt ist die Lage an der zweiten Front:
2. Leute aus ihrer Abhängigkeit von toxischen Plattformen rausholen. Jeder hat doch irgendwie die KiTa-Elterngruppe auf WhatsApp, oder guckt zur Entspannung Abends 3-4h TikTok oder so. Diese Leute kriegen wir mit dem 39C3-Talk nicht direkt überzeugt, so gut er auch sein mag.

So, decided to make the `sisyphus-client` Docker image a multi-stage build because it was a really large image. Ended up taking it from 1.3GB to 708MB which isn't too shabby. Unfortunately, that's about as small as I'm gonna be able to get it with all of the encoding binaries/libraries that I have to install.
Still, pretty solid reduction in container size.

Good Morning #Canada
If you are tuning in for Canadian trivia and bad puns.... prepare to be disappointed. I'm once again hijacking my morning post to ask all Canadian Mastodonians for input.
Question for all MastoCanucks - how would you convince a politician or government dept/agency to join Mastodon? What are the key points that should be made to motivate our government accounts to make a move?
There will be lots of repetitive answers but feel free to expand on those. Also chime in on what questions or resources government accounts might need to successfully launch a Mastodon account (overcoming resistance). If you volunteer to help contact government individuals, what resources do you need to help support your efforts (enabling scale and shared purpose)?
Respond to this post and please boost for reach into all corners of Canada. Follow #MastoCanadaGOV for future updates. Remember, there are no bad ideas, just bad puns by yours truly.

Im Kampf gegen die falschen Narrative der KI-Firmen sollten wir und als Uni zurückbesinnen was nur wir bieten können: Lernen im sozialen Kontext, Lernen von Mensch zu Mensch, Lernen für soziale Wesen die eine Gesellschaft gestalten.
Natürlich kann dieses Lernen auch digital passieren, es geht mehr darum, wer den Prozess strukturiert und wie.

Good Morning #Canada
A lot of Canadians make fun of the public transit systems in their cities. Putting aside the fact that Toronto (actually the Ontario Government) took 16 years to build a few kilometers of light rail transit, Canadian cities rank in the top 10 of systems based on ridership metrics. We, North America, lag behind Europe and some Asian cities, but in general we have a lot to be proud of.
Now if only the government gave public transit the same funding that we threw at highways, that would be amazing. Or to really attack #Affordable commuting, make public transit systems free.

Cédric Weissert, chef de groupe UDC, «c’est l’apothéose»: «On se sent abandonnés. Nous avons soutenu ce gouvernement par fidélité et il nous lâche au dernier moment. Nous sommes frustrés et en colère. La gauche n’a pas besoin de retrouver la majorité en 2027, c’est déjŠ elle qui dirige ce canton. Ce Conseil d’Etat avait pour une fois l’occasion de montrer qu’il avait du cran. Eh bien c’est raté et ça nous donne une bonne raison de refuser ce budget.»

#WissPodWeihnacht bringt 24 Folgen mit max 24 Minuten, also höchstens 576 Minuten. Eine @… hat normalerweise ca. 200-300 Min und nächsten Montag kommt wohl schon wieder eine neue (besondere!).
Es staut sich in der #Overcast-Queue... ich muss irgendwo mehr Hörzeit mobilisieren.

Good Morning #Canada
Apparently the earth moved last night but I didn't feel a thing. An earthquake, a magnitude 3.7 to 4.1 depending on different reports, was reported in my neighbourhood near Orilla Ontario last night. The epicenter was across Lake Simcoe, approximately 35km away from my home and 5km deep. Maybe the lake reduced the impact and we do have a pretty good mattress.
There are 4,000 ish earthquakes measured in Canada annually but most are minor. Perhaps 40 might be large enough or not remote, and people will feel the ground shaking. That's about 1 every 8 days. Most of our earthquakes occur along the West Coast, the High Arctic, and lower frequency along the eastern seaboard. Earthquakes are monitored by the National Seismograph Network with approximately 100 seismographs distributed across Canada.
I know you're wondering about the 10 largest earthquakes ever felt in Canada. I got you covered...

I have the Christmas decoration to prove it.

Home assistant is too unreliable. I run it on the Raspberry Pi4B with an external HDD for storage and every now and then it just stops responding or does not boot after an update or does not update or ... Sometimes a restart helps, sometimes I need to reinstall and get everything from the backup. Now today I ran into the "missing shutdown button":
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/shutdown-option-removed/715359/15 Such a diva. I'm done with home assistant for now.

Die Unterteilung aller Probleme in der #Mathematik in lineare und nicht-lineare ist wie die Unterteilung aller Dinge im Universum in Bananen und Nicht-Bananen.
Hochschullehrer bspw. sind Nicht-Bananen.

Ich bin immer super genervt von "Alle Folgen hört ihr jetzt schon in der ARD Audiothek", weil ich für Podcasts keine andere, schlechtere App nutzen will als Overcast, aber hier erscheint es mir doch sinnvoll. Ich habe noch eine Diskrete Mathematik Vorlesung (unbearbeitet) sowie Lineare Algebra in petto.
Die könnte ich komplett auf PeerTube senden und dann nur die Teaser mit reichweitenstarken Suchbegriffen auf YT.

Dans un arrêt rendu le 19 novembre, le TAF vient d’en faire la démonstration en prenant position sur un recours contre la loi fédérale sur le renseignement (LRens), qui autorise de facto le SRC Š espionner massivement les Suisses, sans limite ni contrôle. Afin de respecter les droits fondamentaux ainsi bafoués, le parlement fédéral est invité, dans un délai de cinq ans, Š réviser sa copie, approuvée Š 65,5% par la population lors d’un référendum en 2017.

Good Morning #Canada
A bit late this morning as we went out for a big family breakfast. I think I'll chip away at my #CanadianCapitals series by sharing some tidbits about one of our older cities. Halifax, because of its large natural harbour, served as an important military base for British ships in North America. Founded in 1749 and incorporated as a city in 1842, it is known for a number of 1sts. Halifax had the 1st public school in Canada as well as the first law school and art college. Canada’s 1st newspaper, the Halifax Gazette, was established in 1752, and the city had the first all electric city lighting grid in North America. The harbour was also the site for the world's largest man-made explosion in #WWI when a munitions transport collided with another ship. Awesome place to visit but try not to jump when they fire the traditional noon cannon.

Ich könnte noch ein #39c3ticket brauchen.

If Gauß had had an electronic calculator, would he have proved better and more theorems or weaker and fewer?
It would have spared him days and days of rote calculation but maybe this calculation was prerequisite for insight?
#math

Neuer Blog-Post - Ich habe #peertube ausprobiert.
tl;dr:
- Unis müssen souveräner auftreten und einfach machen, statt die Marketingsprüche von Meta und Co nachzuplappern (nur da gibt's die ominöse Reichweite yadda yadda)
- UX kann noch besser werden.
- Warum wird #fediverse Entwicklung nicht aus dem Militäretat bezahlt? Das ist die Verteidigungslinie im Info-War!
- 1 Schuss IRIS-T kostet 249.854 oder ca. 31.231,75 Monate PeerTube Hosting.

If you are stuck on a problem, don't just sit there and think about it; start working!
Trifft auf Mathe und Leben zu.
Ich installiere auch gerade #Debian auf meinem alten iMac und denke nach, was es für meine Produktivität bedeuten würde, wenn Apple gleichgeschaltet wird. Das wird nicht schön.

Noch ein guter Punkt aus "The subtle Art ..." von Manson. Die Leute denken es geht so:
Motivation -> Handlung -> Inspiration -> Motivation -> ...
Bei mir:
Handlung -> Inspiration -> Motivation (manchmal) -> Handlung -> ...
Oder wie Woody Allen sagte: 80% of success is showing up.
