Few "people are aware that mining for the energy transition also takes place within the European Union, which directly affects the Sámi: the Indigenous people of northern Scandinavia and the Kola Peninsula in Russia. Their territory is increasingly threatened by mineral mining and other extractive industries, which does not only endanger their way of life but also pose a significant risk to biodiversity."

The image depicts a serene seascape with a clear sky and calm ocean waters. In the foreground, the wake of a boat is visible, creating a frothy white trail that contrasts with the deep blue of the water. The sunlight reflects off the water's surface, creating a shimmering path that leads towards the horizon. In the background, several small islands or landmasses are visible, adding depth to the scene. The overall color palette consists of blues and whites, with the sun casting a bright light across the water. The image is taken from a perspective that suggests movement, as if the viewer is on the boat. The technical details of the image, including the camera model and settings, are visible in the bottom right corner.

Das Bild zeigt eine große Menschenmenge, die sich in einer Demonstration versammelt hat. Viele der Teilnehmer halten farbige Schilder hoch, die in Rot, Gelb und Grün gehalten sind. Ein Schild in der Menge trägt die Aufschrift "VETO" in großen, schwarzen Buchstaben. Im Hintergrund ist ein Gebäude mit einem Dach und einer Kuppel zu sehen, das an das Reichstagsgebäude in Berlin erinnert. Die Menschen scheinen sich aktiv zu beteiligen und die Demonstration zu unterstützen. Die Szene ist in einem skizzenhaften Stil dargestellt, wobei die Farben der Schilder hervorstechen.

Firefly III
Da qualche mese sto facendo un po' di self-hosting per alcune applicazioni visto che ho un server (con su Ubuntu) su cui gira una versione per i test di Lemmy che altrimenti prenderebbe quasi solo polvere.
Tra le applicazioni che ho installato una delle più carine secondo me è proprio Firefly III. Cercavo da tempo un'app per sostituire Ivy Wallet che ho sempre usato con estremo piacere ma che è stata definitivamente abbandonata e archiviata anche su GitHub.
Firefly III ha un sacco di funzionalità (ne uso un terzo) e si può usare sia tramite accesso web che tramite applicazioni di terze parti (io uso Waterfly III).
L'installazione sul server è stata piuttosto semplice e gira semplicemente dietro Docker quindi si fatto tutto in pochi minuti. Ho avuto solo mezzo problema all'inizio perché m'ero dimenticato di inserire nel file .env TRUSTED_PROXIES
e quindi non riuscivo a raggiungere il mio host ma era stato appunto una mia dimenticanza.
Per ora è stabile e non mi ha mai dato problemi, mi piace il fatto che che sia accessibile sia da web che da applicazione.
Altri usano Firefly III?

In ‘Big Bad Wolf,’ Sculptor Kendra Haste Contends with Conservation and Rewilding

Known for her use of galvanized wire to create life-size portraits of everything from calm elephants to alert deer to a family of boars, the British artist is fascinated by what she describes as the “essence and character” of each creature.

The image features a stylized illustration with a blue background. At the center, there are three figures depicted from a top-down perspective, each with a circular head and arms, engaged with an open newspaper. The newspaper has a white background with black text lines. The figure on the left has a beige body and gray pants, the figure in the middle has a black head and gray sleeves, and the figure on the right has a beige head and gray sleeves. The letter "V" is prominently displayed in the top right corner, likely representing "de Volkskrant." Below the figures, the text "de Volkskrant Elke Dag" is written in white and black, indicating the name of the newspaper and its frequency of publication.

Europe’s top human rights court delivered two rulings against Russia Wednesday, stating in the first ruling that Russia violated international law during the conflict in Ukraine, the first time an international court has found Moscow responsible for human rights abuses since the full-scale invasion in 2022.The court also ruled Russia was behind the downing of Flight #MH17, the first time Moscow was named by an international court as being responsible for the 2014 tragedy that claimed 298 lives.

Unknown parent • • •Nazo
Unknown parent • • •@AtanasE Np. I experimented around a lot with a number of different compressions over the years. (Yeah, lol, I even remember ACE, Lzha and others, lol.)
RAR used to be the best for the systems of many years ago, but these days with modern CPUs and most systems having plenty of RAM, you can probably get good enough out of LZMA2 to be worth it. Namely use the biggest dictionary size your system RAM can handle and with modern CPUs it will probably still compress fast enough that you don't feel constrained.
Being completely free really helps.
BTW, xz also offers LZMA2 as an option (should be the default these days,) though it offers less control over the actual compression parameters.

in reply to nixCraft 🐧 • • •Reminds me of when I was annoyed at people posting manga as PNG files compressed in ZIP files (cbz format) or RAR files (cbr format) - why people are taking compressed files and compressing them further?
So I took a manga and compressed it in many different ways. Sure, it wasn't a comprehensive research, I just took a single Oyasumi Punpun volume, but I found the results interesting.
This results table is in Portuguese but the important thing is the numbers: 7-Zip wins for lossy and lossless, but, weirdly, if you use BMP to store images, as it's uncompressed, it allows 7-Zip to work better and results on a smaller file than if you used PNG! It was 2017, lossless AVIF nor JPEG XL were a thing, and WebP hadn't that much support.
