Day 2 with NetBSD is proving challenging, but now that the basic pieces are in place, I've been able to get the core applications I need and added some functionality.
I've got office software, e-mail, text editing, a music player (and volume control!), and I can restart/shutdown from within Xfce. It's been a busy day of getting things sorted, but I feel like it'll be easier from this point.

Uno dei miei rimpianti è di non essere mai entrato in un centro sociale. Non ho la più pallida idea di come fosse lì dentro.
Però ho letto e sentito cose, e un centro sociale me l'immagino come un ritrovo di gente un po' strana, con idee un po' strane, e la voglia di starsene lontana da un mondo di squali.
Persone strane, sì, ma che se si facesse come dicono loro alla fine in questo mondo staremmo tutti un po' meglio.

The video showcases a detailed process of flushing a transmission. It begins with a close-up view of a transmission pan placed on a workbench, with a gear shift lever positioned next to it. A hand is seen operating the gear shift, moving it through various positions. Water is being poured into the transmission pan from a red hose, creating a foamy mixture as it fills. The background features a textured wall with a light source casting a blue and yellow hue, and a workbench with tools and a control panel. The hand continues to manipulate the gear shift while water flows into the pan, indicating a thorough cleaning process. The video concludes with the transmission pan filled with water, and the gear shift lever in a neutral position, highlighting the completion of the flushing process.

La imagen muestra una mano con uñas pintadas de un color morado oscuro, siendo sometida a una luz ultravioleta en una unidosis de manicura. La mano está extendida sobre una superficie curva, típica de una unidosis, que emite una luz blanca y azul brillante. La luz ultravioleta se utiliza para endurecer el esmalte de uñas, asegurando que se seque y se adhiera correctamente. En la parte superior de la unidosis, se puede ver un panel digital que muestra un número, indicando el tiempo restante o la intensidad de la luz. La imagen está enfocada en la mano y la unidosis, con un fondo oscuro que resalta la luz y la mano.

They aren't even close.
That the majority of arm injuries would occur in youth players is a meaningless statistic.

The video depicts a nighttime scene in a residential area, captured in black and white, suggesting it was taken with a night vision camera. The setting includes a white van with the letters 'GK' on its side, parked near a fence, and a white car parked on the street. The area is illuminated by streetlights, casting a bright glow on the scene. A person, dressed in a light-colored shirt and dark pants, is seen walking towards the gate of a property, which is partially open. The person appears to be interacting with the gate, possibly opening or closing it. The background features houses with lit windows, indicating that the residents are likely inside. The scene remains static throughout the video, with no significant changes in the actions or positions of the individuals or objects. The video captures a moment of activity in a quiet residential setting, with the person's actions being the primary focus.

With all due respect to all my friends here that belong to that generation …

It’s like no one exists but them.
Every generation. For me it's folks who have put in ear buds and detached from meatspace.
But I'm very wary of anything that seems like "generation gap" thinking. As long as capital can keep the races and nations and sexes and generations fighting we can't work together to start the guillotines rolling. #eatherich

Last night the universe put a track from this album in my ears and I realized I hadn't actually listened to this album before so I bookmarked it to listen to later and then put on our next episode of Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown...and the episode turned out to be the Chicago one with Steve Albini, no joke. And now I'm finally listening to the album and, like, holy shit. Some things don't suck.

My frustrations in trying to find a small stuffed animal to clip to the backpack I use every day at school means I ended up buying a cheaper knockoff #Labubu from the vape shop. It is actually a nice light color which softens my backpack a bit and kind of cute so I'm glad I did, but just funny how much labubus and copies have spread.
How Turkmenistan turned censorship into a lucrative extortion scheme by intentionally restricting internet access in order to sell its own VPNs to citizens
::: spoiler Comments
- Hackernews.
:::
In July 2021, a sudden drop in Tor usage in Turkmenistan called our attention. Tor would come to understand that this marked the beginning of a new era of censorship and restriction in this post-Soviet country. But let's rewind...The Tor Community has long been defending internet freedom, running relays and providing bridges to combat internet censorship.
Over the years, the Tor Project has called for action to run more bridges, Snowflake proxies, while we've investigated and adapted our anti-censorship strategies, and shared information about online censorship in Turkmenistan.
Modern censorship circumvention systems are generally built around the concept of "collateral damage", where a censor cannot block access without blocking the entire internet or popular online services. However, in Turkmenistan, the censors' behavior has been strikingly different. They have openly blocked vast parts of the internet without concern for the collateral consequences, sparking curiosity: why do Turkmenistan's censors seem unbothered by the collateral damage their actions cause?

In Turkmenistan, one of the most isolated regimes in the world, internet censorship has evolved beyond surveillance and control.blog.torproject.org

Donald Trump may be running an authoritarian political project, but the big money that has been backing him has been running a cryptocurrency project at the expense of the dollar and your standard of living.

Arbeitsministerin Bas für weitere Nullrunde beim Bürgergeld
Nach der Nullrunde in diesem Jahr wird das Bürgergeld auch im kommenden Jahr wohl nicht erhöht. Das geht aus Plänen von Arbeitsministerin Bas hervor. Die SPD-Politikerin kündigte auch härtere Sanktionen an.
Sollte das nicht eine Sozialministerin sein?
Und mit dem was die Bürgergeldempfänger*innen dadurch WENIGER im Geldbeutel haben, werden die ganz sicher das Wirtschaftswachstum ordentlich ankurbeln, damit das BIP steigt und wieder mehr Firmen Leute einstellen. 😏

Listening to this interview of Rudy from #blacksky, I get the impression that there is no simplifying decentralization. You can either do it on the frontend like #mastodon does, or ask/expect people to decentralize later like #bluesky does. Either way, you will need to explain why it matters and help them make it happen.
[I'm unconvinced by arguments beyond #DemocracyOfReach so far. We don't need "decentralized social media" for community. Start a subreddit/discord.]
