Wettertrend: Durchbruch der Frontalzone - Frühherbst nicht auszuschließen
Im September bleibt die Großwetterlage zunächst noch von einer blockierenden Konstellation geprägt. Zwischen einem atlantischen Tiefdrucksystem und einem osteuropäischen Hochdruckgebiet liegt Mitteleuropa zwischen den Fronten. Deutschland verharrt damit in einem Bereich, der abwechslungsreicher nicht sein könnte und zugleich eine Wetter- und Luftmassengrenze ermöglichen kann. Klar ist - geringfügige Veränderungen der Positionierung der Wettersysteme können zwischen Spätsommer und dem frühen Herbst entscheidend sein. Mit der Luftmassengrenze ist auch beides möglich. Spannender kann eine Wetterentwicklung kaum sein.
The best printer to buy is the one that works without you needing to think about it or subscribe to some nonsense ink refill thing. For most people, that’s the Brother HL-L2305W or something like the MFC-L2750DW that adds a scanner.

I'm experimenting with getting rid of Spotify for...several reasons, and trying out locally downloaded music instead. I bought a few of my favorite albums on Bandcamp and have a local player on my phone. So far so good, I just need to build out my library over time.
My question to folks who are doing similar, how do you discover new music? I'm trying to follow artists that I already like, but often that means I'm hearing about their new music (which is good) and not new artists.
Today, the US military blew up civilians on a boat in international waters. This is an illegal act of aggression as it was not in actual self-defense. Being suspected of carrying drugs or not stopping can't justify this. The US violated international law again and is bragging about it.
Calling people terrorists so you can blow them up doesn't make them terrorists and it will never make it justified or right or legal under international law to do this. Trump is joining a long line of American presidents who terrorize the world this way.
Israel's eradication of Gaza City, yesterday, obviously intended to inflict on the Palestinian People conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction. Intentionally demolishing residential high-rise buildings, make very many people homeless, shelter-less.
"In the past three days, the Israeli forces have accelerated their genocidal campaign and ethnic cleansing by expanding their military activity into Gaza City. In Gaza City there are bombings during the day and night, and the people are terrified and unsure of where to go or what to do. We’ve seen entire neighborhoods being destroyed and demolished, with practically no buildings left standing. [...]"

Autisme : les médecines alternatives ne démontrent aucune efficacité solide
(oui parce que les pourfendeurs de "Big Pharma" oublient souvent de vous dire que l'industrie du bien-être (6300 Mds) est 4x plus importante que l'industrie pharma (1600 Mds), et qu'en plus ça fonctionne pas)
Les médecines alternatives et complémentaires sont très utilisées dans la prise en charge du trouble du spectre autistique mais leur efficacité restait incertaine.
"nan mais c'est la fote aux vaccins..." Par contre je suis preneur de plus d'infos sur les 6300Mds de l'industrie du bien-être. ça englobe quoi ? C'est le CA ? Parce que le modèle de big pharma reste une belle merde dans ce que le capitalisme fait de pire et ça m'étonne que le bien-être arrive à faire le même genre de levées de fond (la recette de big pharma étant d'avoir un modèle éco passant par le remboursement des traitements, ce dont ne bénéficie pas la pseudo science bullshit)

Puh. 3h fahren sind ne Herausforderung für meine Blase... 🤭 Kurz vor Berlin in Oberkrämer laden wir den blauen Blitz bei #Ionity. Eigentlich hätte der #KiaEV9 die 40km noch geschafft. Aber das Navi sagt noch ne Stunde. Das schaffe ich nicht mehr. 😂 Und so müssen wir nicht teuer am Hotel laden. Und wir können was essen.

i am old enough to remember what Poliomyelitis does to children—a few of them went to my primary school.
Polio and other diseases that maim and kill are easily avoidable with childhood vaccination, so eliminating child vaccine mandates makes absolutely zero sense medically. stop these killer policymakers before we start needing many more small sized coffins!!
Funny when a recruiter ask you about a "gap in your resume" and you tell then that you had a child and moved to another part of the planet (with the kids).
I should add that line in LinkedIn: "Expert mover, caretaker across continents"
...and when you need hot chocolate, "worst I have ever had" is not likely to improve your mood. Sort of like when the top of your ice cream cone falls off onto the floor just as you're going out the door of the shop.
@moonrabbit I literally couldn’t drink it. It tasted… wrong, and left a greasy coating on the roof of my mouth. Obviously I am nowhere near assertive enough to have taken it back, so I just left it. Next time, remind me to just post £4 down the street drain, it would be more satisfying
@sindarina @moonrabbit oh the whole day has been full of annoyances. Wanted a toastie in M&S but they were physically inaccessible, so I ordered poached eggs on toast, only to be told they didn’t know where the eggs were. I tried to buy boots but the shop had hardly anything in my size. Then it started raining when it had been forecast to be sunny and I didn’t have a coat. Then two buses in a row on the route to campus were cancelled, so I ended up waiting around for half an hour. Then the disappointment of the hot chocolate.
bahhhhh to all of that. but hooray for the meetings! maybe it's one of those balance things? still, that seems like a lot of annoyance to get through 💜

土耳其军工企业Baykar的所有者、总统埃尔多安的女婿 Selçuk Bayraktar 基于 Mastodon 开发了社交媒体平台 Next Sosyal，埃尔多安本人和多个政府部门已经入驻。Next Sosyal 已经在 Google Play 上取得了超过100万次下载。平台起初未提及 Mastodon 的开源代码，但在接到 Mastodon 组织的请求后，已遵守 AGPL 许可，并在其“关于”页面声明其基于 Mastodon 且为开源平台。周报作者认为，像埃尔多安和特朗普这样的领导者更懂得如何利用社交媒体直接与支持者沟通并控制信息传播，而民主国家领导人在这方面却表现得缺乏兴趣。 （注：这里提到特朗普，很可能是因为其 Truth Social 也是基于 Mastodon 开发的）
Next Sosyal is a new Turkish social media platform that is based on Mastodon. The platform has not enabled federation, and is thus not accessible from the fediverse. Next Sosyal is endorsed by Turkish ruling party AKP, and president Erdogan recently made his first post on the platform. Erdoğan quoted a poem from a prominent Turkish poet, and posted “Are you ready?”, with the hashtag “We’re starting,” along with emojis of the Turkish flag, the Earth and a rocket.
Next Sosyal is developed by Selçuk Bayraktar, who owns military drone company Baykar and is the son-in-law of President Erdogan. The platform is branded as a “local and national” alternative to global platforms such as X and Facebook. Bayraktar describes the platform as a safer and cleaner space for constructive dialogue free from trolling, disinformation and Western platform algorithms.
The Nordic Monitor news site further reports: “Several ministries and public entities now maintain official Next Sosyal profiles. Staff in these offices report that social media guidance increasingly favors the platform. Press releases, bulletins and announcements are expected to appear on Next before being shared on global platforms. Some officials say internal memos suggested de-emphasizing X and Instagram entirely. In addition, some major corporations have reportedly started opening accounts on Next out of fear of government pressure.”
Bayraktar claims that the app now has over 1 million users. Since Next Sosyal is a slight reskin of Mastodon, it means that the same API also works. API calls to Next Sosyal on August 22nd showed an exact user count of 850.000, and as of September 2 the API claims a total of 1.100.000 accounts. Registering on the app requires a Turkish phone number, making it difficult for me to verify these numbers by looking at timeline activity, but the exact roundness of these numbers does raise some suspicions for me.
The platform was originally released without any reference to Mastodon’s source code. Mastodon is released under the AGPL license, which means that you can use, modify and distribute the software freely, as long as you publish the code under the same AGPL license. After some requests from the Mastodon organisation, Next Sosyal is now compliant with this, and explicitly mentions that “NSocial is an open source Mastodon-based social media platform developed by TEKNOFEST entrepreneurs.” on their About page.
We live in a world where authoritarian rulers seem to have a better grasp of current social media dynamics than many democratic leaders have. Both Trump and Erdogan understand the value of building a social media platform where they have a direct connection with their supporters, and can control message distribution. That both leaders use Mastodon for this, while democratic leadership shows little interest in building out their own social media distribution platforms on the open social web is painful.

Last week I wrote about SocialHub, a forum to discuss ActivityPub, and how it fits into a larger understanding of the ‘substrate’ layer of the fediverse. One of the points I made is that the communication layer underneath the fediverse (meaning places to discuss and collaborate on ActivityPub, for example) is fairly decentralised. The positive effect is that this creates a distribution of power, nobody can control all the conversations that happen about ActivityPub. This also means that coordination is more difficult, as developers are spread out over multiple places. There has been quite some movement this week in this space of “what are the places to talk about ActivityPub”:
The direct cause for writing the article was SocialHub potentially shutting down. A new administrator has been found, workers cooperative Pavillion. The cooperative was hired by forum software Discourse to create the ActivityPub plugin for the forum.
Activitypub.rocks is the ‘official’ website for the ActivityPub protocol, but it has not been updated for almost five years. Christine Lemmer-Webber, one of the co-authors of ActivityPub, has decided to hand over the website to the SocialCG, the community group for ActivityPub that is part of the W3C. A new initiative to work on the website from the SocialCG is led by Johannes Ernst, who also organises the FediForum conferences.
Activitypub.space is a new forum to discuss ActivityPub, created by NodeBB developer Julian Lam.
Fediverse software updates:
A blog by the WordPress ActivityPub team with more details on their latest updates, with expanded moderation tooling and improvements under the hood.
Piefed now has a build-in discovery tool to find new communities to subscribe to.
Blogging platform WriteFreely has further fediverse integrations with their latest update: it now displays ‘likes’ on WriteFreely blog posts made on other platforms. Other platforms such as Mastodon will now also show a preview or summary of a WriteFreely post, in addition to a link.
LemmyBridge is a new browser extension that connects you to Lemmy discussions for any website you visit.
Pixelfed releases the ‘Stories’ feature on their Android app.
And an overview of all fediverse software updates of the week.
And some more links:
WeDistribute writes about the Client-to-Server part of ActivityPub, a part of the protocol that is rarely used, and how the Social Web Foundation is working on promoting its use.

Samsung Galaxy S25 One UI 8 Beta 7 will be released soon!
While the beta recruitment was closed for the Galaxy S25, Samsung was working on the seventh beta of One UI 8. This suggests that further improvements are to be made before the final version of One UI 8 that will be released this September.
As spotted by a tipster, Tarun Vats, Samsung has just dropped a new beta build to the testing server of the Galaxy S25. This signifies that the seventh beta will make its way before the stable version, at which final improvements in those two versions must be made to ensure smooth experience. The testing build can be identified as ZYI3, but it may not be a final Beta 7 build. The seventh beta version will be released to those who are beta testers of One UI 8 on their Galaxy S25. After that, the stable release should be the next update.
We advise beta testers to check for all updates to ensure that you’re using the stable version of One UI 8 on your Galaxy S25 by the end of September. The company warns that if you didn’t update to the stable version after the beta program ends, you won’t be able to update to versions released after One UI 8.
To update to One UI 8 Beta 7 on your Galaxy S25 once it gets released, follow these steps:
Open Settings
Navigate to System Update
Tap Download and Install
You should see the One UI 8 Beta 7 build and its changelogs
Tap Update now
Let it download, install, and verify
Reboot the phone
Make sure that you have fully charged your battery before attempting to update to One UI 8 Beta 7. Never interrupt the update in any way, or issues may occur later. You’ll need to download the update via your Wi-Fi connection to avoid high mobile data fees.
Help Shanda and their queer household, who are Ukrainian refugees who fled to Georgia, flee again to Spain to escape georgia's increasingly anti-trans environment and government. They need your help to fund their move and take care of the legal stuff, the transportation and apartment rent. Georgia is slowly being overtaken by russia politically, and the ruling party has adopted the anti-LGBTQ+ narrative and has made transition illegal.
They plan to move out of Georgia around mid autumn, if things go according to plan.
Kennedy on a media tear to make it seem like he’s got widespread support. The anti-vaxx movement has been very very good at using social media to appear huge, when it has in fact been a small but vocal and well-organized minority with opinions way outside the mainstream. Unclear whether it’ll work.
