@waidler@bayerwald.socialKarin Kneissl, Ex-Außenministerin Österreichs, lebt seit 2023 in einem 400-Seelen-Dorf in der Region Rjasan. Im Interview beschreibt sie: In russischen Dörfern fehlt fast die gesamte Generation zwischen 15 und 50. Verbreiteter Alkoholismus, Mütter, die Schnaps statt Essen kaufen. Staatlicher Druck auf Frauen, mehr Kinder zu bekommen. Sie zählt die Folgen einzeln auf – über dem Sofa hängt Putins Porträt. Weggehen? Für sie „eine dumme Frage".

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.ioDidn't get to see a total eclipse yet since I picked up astrophotography, but here's the annular one in 2023, as seen from Roswell, New Mexico.
Very simple setup with a professional-grade telescope solar filter film (from Baader) and a small handheld Nikon J5 mirrorless camera.
I would recommend NOT to use those cardboard eclipse glasses for photography, it's way too easy to get it wrong and ruin your camera sensor (or worse, your eyesight if you look through e.g. a DSLR and it accidentally slips).
If you don't really know what you're doing it's much better to just enjoy an event like this directly with the eclipse glasses on your face. (It's safe to look directly during totality, and totality only.)
There will be plenty of pictures!

@sean@scoat.esI broke up with 1Password a little over 3 years ago.
It was clear to me that I should no longer trust them with the most intimate of my personal data. I was with them from 2008 to 2023 (15 years).
They got a LOT of investment very quickly, and started pushing their hosted service—HARD. I need to have agency over my own credentials data, not trust a service to stay up.
To me, this was the start of them showing us who they really are (and I even tolerated it for a bit).

@hikingdude@mastodon.socialYesterday I checked photos from 2023 and noticed some stacks of RAW photos including the pano shots or HDR DNGs ...
And just then I wondered: When I have the pano / hdr generated: Why exactly would I keep the RAWs? Would I really EVER need them again? unlikely. - Same for video clips that are shaky and with no memories connected ...
Got quite some spaced freed ...

@ErikJonker@mastodon.socialAI & water,
"Experts stress that, overall, data center water consumption pales in comparison to the usage by industries like agriculture and some kinds of manufacturing. Researchers have estimated that data center cooling systems consumed 66 billion liters of water in 2023, less than 1 percent of the nation’s total consumption."
