I tried some pencils which are water treatable - aqiarell in fact but pencil also, erasable - but just before applying water afterwards they are fix, you cannot erase them anymore.
once more it wasn't possible to stay monotechnique ;) I fetched the black ink to try the sky... that failed a bit...
further made me happy to recycle the old hindu.flags I kept storing for months planning 2 make some #art out of it.

Bello! Finalmente uno dei “Nodi” di Zona42 che mi è piaciuto! Un'unica nota: il titolo della versione originale “Sword & Spore” era più ficcante, anche se pure “MYCELIUM” non mi dispiace.

in one hand, I don't think this is a good idea but in the other hand, for countries like the UK the military was two times the solution of a problem. In Germany it was the root cause. The militarism of our forefathers was feared in Europe.
So, out stance toward military including our own is difficult as hell.

US pressure may break Iranian influence in Iraq
Washington is pressing Baghdad to dismantle pro-Iranian paramilitary groups. The move is risky, but it may pay off.Jasim Al-Azzawi (Al Jazeera)
If I ran Bluesky..
If I were running Bluesky I’d have a quiet project to make a lite Bluesky server that peers with the mother ship, highly factored, in a Node package, open source of course. Get this snake oil phase behind them, where they’re claiming to be decentralized, but aren’t.

i want to be able to build on whatever they ship, or bake it into one of my projects.
that suggests not doing docker, doing a package.
#Bluesky has muddied the waters to decentralization with how complicated they’ve made #ATproto.
A good ground-truth monitor is arewedecentralizedyet.online

Great point! The reason that #Bluesky doesn't make it easy to set up alternative fully independent instances is because it would undermine their hegemony over the protocol. They want their cake (claiming decentralization) and to to eat it to (effectively being centralized) because that is what is necessary for their valuation to attract investors.

As you say, they could easily set up showcase quasi-independent instances to prove the decentralizability of ATProto. They could package toolkits to make it easy for others to do so. The fact they don't do these things speaks volumes about their true intent.

Great point! Had not thought of this.
And a corollary... When your business model is collecting data on all of the users you are incentivised to collect it from as many users as possible. When you don't collect data, your incentive is simply to spread the cost as you point out.

It's a four-year-old app store that's still beta with best I can tell 33 apps on it.
I'm kind of impressed you've managed to get the amount of donations you have.

Technology reshared this.
I'll be honest, I used this store three months ago, and the most polite compliment I can provide is that it "technically works". It's extremely barebones in its current state. IE the bare minimum for a functional app store is the install button, and that does function. But that's pretty much all the thing it has, at least from a user point of view.
I mean, it's a shame that its future is in question, but you know... Spilled milk and all.
Hosts proprietary apps, no thank you, and does not allow for third party repositories, so if they are told to take down an app, there is no recourse.

My best guess for this one is a smoothleg hoverfly from the Heringia genus, more specifically Heringia heringi, the elm-gall smoothleg – I can't find a German name.

Indossa una lunga tunica nera con ricami dorati e un cappello con una piuma bianca. La persona tiene in mano un rotolo di pergamena, suggerendo un ruolo di autorità o un personaggio importante. La scena si svolge in un'area pavimentata con un'illuminazione focale che mette in risalto la figura centrale. Sullo sfondo, si vedono altre persone in abiti medievali, che sembrano essere parte dello stesso evento. La parete di pietra alle spalle della persona aggiunge un tocco storico all'ambiente.
