Rolled back to a previous backup of my containers that run Mastodon, so lost a few followers. Apologies to anyone who I've followed again who I may have added previously. The joys of figuring out #selfhosting... I've split some services out so I shouldn't have to do this again!
I keep meaning to deploy a hugo blog and start writing about my #mastodon adventures. Relays, #fedibuzz and hashtags will feature heavily. It's been a lot of fun so far!
IBM 5155 – Il primo portatile IBM (1984) Questo “trasportabile” derivato dal PC/XT IBM pesava 13 kg e offriva un monitor da 9", due floppy e fino a 640 KB di RAM.

Sick of my voice yet? Got one more interview, this time with some predictions as to what we will see in the future (hint: it might not be more drone incursions).

The image shows a soccer field with a goalpost in the center. In the background, there is a large red banner with white text that reads "WER ANTIFA VERBietet, DER WILL FASCHISMUS! MAKE ANTI FA GREAT AGAIN! SCHICKLAU MÜNCHEN." The banner is held by fans in the stands. The field is green with white lines marking the boundaries and the goal area. There are two security personnel in yellow vests near the goalpost. Advertisements for "meine Volksbank Raiffeisenbank eG" and "rb.de/fan-bar" are visible on the advertising boards around the field. The atmosphere appears to be charged with political messages, as indicated by the banner's content.

Income isn’t supposed to play a role in how much housing assistance FEMA gives families.
But in some N.C. counties, the highest-income homeowners received two to three times as much money after Hurricane Helene as those with lower incomes. propublica.org/article/fema-ai…
An analysis by ProPublica and The Assembly of the more rural counties in North Carolina hardest hit by Helene shows that the households that got the most aid tended to have the highest incomes.
We want to hear from North Carolinians whose homes were damaged or destroyed to better understand how well the state housing recovery program, RenewNC, is working for those who need it.
In 1964, Sōka Gakkai founded Kōmeitō as its political arm. The new party claimed to represent ordinary citizens, especially those outside Japan’s traditional elite. Over time, it became known for pacifism, social welfare, and education reform.
Bolzano, proposta di tassa di 100 euro per i proprietari di cani a fronte delle spese sostenute per pulire quanto lasciato dagli incivili padroni. Le proteste: "così si incentiva l'abbandono"
@d_von_bern si vero; a prescindere dalle ragioni io resto contro l'adozione di nuove tasse tese a colpire indiscriminatamente tutti, con il rischio (vero) che anche quelli che si comportano civilmente poi si sentano autorizzati a non esserlo più.
Last few hours to spend with my parents today before they travel back home this evening. Too bad it's been so intense at work while they were here, I feel a bit guilty for my sense of relief that they are leaving and I get more time back.
Try not to feel guilty, u think most adults find their parents staying a bit stressful, and when that’s combine with busy (and possibly also stressful) times at work it’s all a bit much. I think you are having a very proportionate feeling 💜
@purplepadma thank you Charlotte, that was good to hear. 💚 It was also not to say that part of me isn't sad to see them go. We just said our goodbyes and I also felt emotional and cried a little.

It's been a while since I've tried any of the Android apps for Mastodon. I've been using the WebUI which was fine, but they've now changed the layout, and I'm not a fan - the 'toolbar' down the right with 'home', 'notifications', 'pending follows', etc has moved to the bottom, with fewer options, making it harder to use.
So which apps are people happy with these days?
Update: I just tried Tusky, and that's not bad, but doesn't seem to auto-refresh, and also Megalodon, which looks pretty much identical to the WebUI! Any other good ones I should look at?

Seit wenigstens 8 Monaten wissen Unternehmen und die Politik, dass das Thema Zölle das bestimmende Thema sein wird. Und es wirkt so, als wären sie alle vollkommen Ratlos, wie sie damit umgehen sollen.
In nur 8 Monaten wurde, unter Rot-Grüner-... Regierungszeit, die Energieversorgung vollständig vom russischen Gas entkoppelt und die Energiewende eingeleitet.
"In nur 8 Monaten wurde, unter Rot-Grüner-… Regierungszeit, die Energieversorgung vollständig vom russischen Gas entkoppelt und die Energiewende eingeleitet."
Im Prinzip - ja. Die Energiewende nach deutscher Art stellt sich jedoch immer mehr als Sackgasse heraus.
Persönlich bin ich schon seit längerer Zeit mißtrauisch gegenüber den Zukunftsverheißungen der Energiewende - billiger Strom & Wasserstoff im Überfluß; nun gibt es immer mehr Stimmen, die zu einer kritischen Haltung wechseln. Darunter auch Zeitgenossen, die bis vor Kurzem noch leidenschaftlich die Energiewende propagandierten.
Möglich, daß angesichts der veränderter politischen Lage ein gewisser Opportunismus zu dem Umschwung beiträgt, oder daß die Leute angesichts der konjunkturellen Misäre anfangen die Nerven zu verlieren.
Ein Blick in die kürzlich erschienene Studie von EWI schärft den Blick:
"Energiewende. Effizient. Machen. Monitoringbericht zum Start der 21. Legislaturperiode", (EWI & BET, 2025)
Die Studie ist als eher staatsfromm einzustufen. Es ist kaum etwas Kritisches darin zu finden. Erschreckend ist vielmehr aus meiner Sicht die Zukunftsperspektve zur Rettung / zum Gelingen der Energiewende dort formuliert wird:
Ein Dickicht an Förder-, Anreiz-, Befreiungs-, Kostenbelastungsmaßnahmen. Anscheinend in der Tradition des überkomplexen deutschen Steuersystems,
mit dem Anspruch der "Flexibilisierung" umfassende Datenerhebungen bei Stromverbrauchern und -Erzeugern, die letztlich zwangsläufig tief in die soziale Sphäre eingreifen,
mit der "Flexibilisierung" der Anspruch auf zentrale Steuermöglichkeiten, allerdings fern von marktwirtschaftlichen Mechanismen, sondern vielmehr dem Ziel verfpflichtet, irgendwie das System am Funktionieren zu halten. Könnte man vielleicht mit der Planwirtschaft der späten DDR vergleichen,
ein Wust von Regeln, die auf unterschiedliche Weise die Akteure des Stromsystems addressieren: Solar-Hausdach, Solar-Freifläche, Wind-onshore, Wind-offshore, Speicher, Elekrolyseure, Wärmepumpen & eAutos, private Verbraucher, industrielle Verbraucher, industrielle Großverbraucher, Kapazitätsmarkt, Reservekraftwerke,, redispatch...
mit der sich anbahnenden ausufernden Komplexität des Stromsystems wird das System intransparent und damit anfällig für Klientelpolitik und Korruption,
mit der wachsenden Komplexität eines Systems ist typischerweise eine wachsende Fehleranfälligkeit verbunden, sowie wachsende Verwaltungs-, Überwachungs- und Instandhaltungskosten.
Gegenwärtig entzündet sich die Kritik an der deutschen Energiewende an den Kosten [die meiner Meinung vergleichbar sind mit Atomstrom]. Die obige Auflisltung läßt vermuten, daß damit nur ein kleiner Teil der Energiewende beleuchtet wird.
