Thanks to @…, I'm now the owner of a Steam Deck! 🤯 Just loaded 100 games on it from the collection, and now the true test, as many are older indies - only a few of the ones I loaded are sure to work. 😂 But testing them all and finding out will be interesting.

"The Pentagon is pushing four AI companies to let the military use their tools for "all lawful purposes," including in areas of weapons development, intelligence collection and battlefield operations, but Anthropic has not agreed to those terms and the Pentagon is getting fed up after months of negotiations, according to the Axios report."
Anthropic is not ruthless enough, apparently.
Over the past few days and weeks, I’ve decided to downsize my digital and tech collection. I own so many computers, laptops, smartphones, smartwatches, accessories, and so on—I can never really use it all. I bought a lot of it just to own the latest “hot stuff.”
That’s why I’ve gotten rid of most of it—either giving it away or selling it for very little. And I’ve kept only the bare essentials. Often not even the newest or best.
For example: I now only use my Peladn Mini-PC with …

Since the university library got rid of late fees and began automatically renewing loans instead, my house has become something of a minor branch. I figure my colleagues and I are providing storage, in the process helping to maintain the collection from which books would otherwise have to be purged.

Just finished "Macunado: Welcome to Elsewhere" by Liniers, which is apparently a collection of newspaper comics. It's excellent and reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes, Minus, and Azumanga Daioh or Nichijou.

Bielefeld exists, a 7 unit strong fleet of hydrogen refuse collection trucks (for 7 million €), even a H2 refuelling station exists across the road.
But the trucks need to drive 40 km one way to refuel. And soon, maybe even 90.

today, 25 years later, you can put a thing in your pocket that needs Wi-Fi or 5G to access your entire music collection that's stored in a datacenter the size of several city blocks and you must pay rent to your cell phone provider and to your music datacenter landlord to access it!
now that's called progress!
services.radicale.git.enable=true now makes nicer commit messages, for events and contacts it will list the name and even describe renames. Proof of concept, written in bash/awk. It'll be hard to write a diff-parser that covers all kinds of changes, I guess having a local LLM could do it, but it'd slow down radicale significantly.

– denounced the auction as “blasphemy”, saying the scroll belonged in a library, not a private collection.
"Jack loved public libraries,” she said at the time, adding:
