Gerne, hier ist eine Alt-Text-Beschreibung des Bildes:

Nahaufnahme eines schlafenden Hundes, der sich auf einem braunen, flauschigen Untergrund zusammengerollt hat. Man sieht die Pfote des Hundes, die hellbeige ist, und den Kopf des Hundes, der in braunen und goldenen Tönen gefärbt ist. Das Fell des Hundes ist lang und weich. Der Hund wirkt entspannt und friedlich im Schlaf.

I was having the same thoughts and thinking of the same solutions. Who can leave is better than they do it now, for people who can't, damage control is the best choice: every bit we can take from big tech is something less they can make money on. And if we all do it then in the end we will not use big tech products anymore.
in reply to zbrando

@zbrando Not using big tech products or services anymore is pure utopia, just as it is utopian to think that choices like mine will be followed by many. But if we reduce their impact on our daily lives, and there are still many of us, the market will certainly penalize them. It will be a harm that, in the long run, could hurt them.
in reply to Luigi Mozzillo

Someone should promote a no big tech day every Sunday, then maybe we could realize we can live without some services and abandon them altogether.
in reply to Luigi Mozzillo

It's the same for people who switch to dumb phones, a trend in under 30s: if you can give up smartphones, do it. If you can't, use damage control tactics like uninstalling apps, set app limits, focus mode, etc.


Here's a weird and unproven project. This is a tool length setter for my cheap CNC mill. I printed clamp collars for mill bits that butt against the spindle collet so all the bits will be known length that matches their respective entries in the mill tool table. This setter lets me preload them to the same length, by loosening the collar and pushing a piece of aluminum plate against the bit until the three screw ends stop it. Then I tighten the collar.

in reply to rag. Gustavino Bevilacqua

@GustavinoBevilacqua There are somewhat equivalent things for setting up shrunk tooling, and they're definitely over $100. However I bet they're also quite accurate and more durable. If this works well maybe I'll mill one.
in reply to smellsofbikes

@GustavinoBevilacqua What would you think of using a collar with opposed flat-tip set screws, for balance?


Linus merged the mm changes for #Linux 6.14 after some hiccups[1] have been resolved:

git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/9c59…

1/ Some highlights:

- "Uncached buffered IO" […] permits userspace to address issues with massive buildup of useless pagecache when reading/writing fast devices.

- "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" […] A speedup of 400% was demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel build time with swap-on-zram.

[1] fosstodon.org/@kernellogger/11… #kernel #LinuxKernel


Reminder, Linus sometimes rejects #LinuxKernel pull requests[1] – which is why I distrust #Linux news sites that write stories along the lines of "foo will be in #Kernel version bar" based on merge requests without mentioning that risk.

And why do that at all? There are often just a few hours or a day or two between the pull request and Linus merging it, so why not just wait a bit?

1/ And sure, often…

[1] this happened to the main MM updates from akpm for 6.14 today: lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=whdd…




The question isn’t “How do we fix the internet?” it’s “How do we become the kind of people who would build better things?”

And that’s a question as old as humanity itself.

Mit der Spionage-App mSpy überwachen Menschen heimlich die Handys ihrer Partner:innen. Das ist illegal. Jetzt gibt ein Leak Einblick in die Kommunikation mit Kund:innen. Die zeigt, wie skrupellos die Täter:innen ihre engsten Bezugspersonen ins Visier nehmen – auch in Deutschland. #mSpyLeak

In den vergangenen Monaten haben wir einen Datensatz mit Millionen von Nachrichten aus dem Kundensupport-System der Spionage-App mSpy durchsucht – gemeinsam mit Kolleg:innen vom SWR. Wir fanden Tausende Nutzer:innen und Interessent:innen mit einem Bezug zu Deutschland. Und Betroffene, die beim Kundendienst um Hilfe bitten.

@ckoever @yoshiXYZ Super Artikel! Habe vieles gelernt. Danke für eure tolle Recherche!

Zu den beiden genannten Tools zu Analyse auf verdächtigen Datenverkehr habe ich ein paar Anmerkungen/Infos:

- "spytrap-wifi": Laut Github wird das seit 5 Jahren nicht mehr gepflegt. Es ist fraglich, ob damit aktuelle Spyware entdeckt werden kann.

- "TinyCheck" (oder manchmal "Tiny-Check"): Diese Lösung von Kaspersky wurde vermutlich auch eingestellt. Der Link zu Github ist tot.

I’m proud that the banner picture for my profile was sourced from THE WORST MOVIE OF THE YEAR IT’S WORTH IT FOR AUBREY PLAZA OTHERWISE YOU MUST BE ON DRUGS TO UNDERSTAND WTF IS HAPPENING WITH THE PLOT.

It’s satisfying.

I did mention that I’m self-aware of being an absurd person, right?

I did think we already covered that 🤷🏻‍♂️

A still image from the movie Megalopolis, showing a man in a suit sitting at a large, dark wooden desk which is tipped onto its side, partially buried in sand. The desk is overflowing with papers. The room is large and opulent, with tall windows, floor-length curtains, and tall lamps in the corners. Sunlight streams in through the window, illuminating the scene. The text below the image says "'Megalopolis,' shot in Atlanta, gets six Razzie Award nominations".

Obscure Game(s) 6:

Brave Story New Traveler is a turn based RPG developed by Game Republic and published by Sony for the PSP in 2006.

It has solid combat, not so stretched out maps, amazing music and plot. I would say it is deceptively plot heavy for me, when I first played it. Also, it felt quite atmospheric too.

PSP is a treasure trove when it comes to hidden gems, and this game definitely fits to the definition. Quality title that did not receive the recognition it deserved.

I really like turn based RPGs, navigating throughout the not so stretched out open world and with a reasonable encounter rate the aforementioned genre can be quite therapeutic experience. That is how Brave Story felt for me. Immerse myself with the plot or just do some grinding.

The game is not grind heavy by the way.

Cast of characters are quite likeable, and they fit the worlds they inhabit quite effortlessly.

Sadly this game is not currently available on any official capacity. It is a shame though it is an amazing one.

This game definitely deserves your attention.

Avec Joseph Benamran, l’inarrêtable business du mal-logement

La Ville de Strasbourg et l'État ont lancé plusieurs procédures à l'encontre du multipropriétaire Joseph Benamran. Malgré tout, beaucoup de locataires continuent de vivre dans des conditions indignes. Des casseroles sont disposées sur le sol pour recueillir l'eau. Au-dessus, un chiffon humide est coincé dans une fenêtre rafistolée avec du plexiglas. Ce velux fait partie d'un mur fissuré et entièrement moisi.

Doesn’t surprise me that PC gaming has eclipsed console gaming.

PC gaming is more flexible whereas I feel Xbox and PS are stuck in the past. Every generation, it’s just an upgrade in specs.

Only Nintendo is pushing console innovation.

Here are my thoughts on handheld PC gaming after CES 2025. Does the PC industry *need* to challenge the Switch 2? Nah. But there's an opportunity they could seize — together. theverge.com/24351383/handheld…
in reply to Sean Hollister

I think the only way the Switch 2 competes is by being cheaper than the Steam Deck.
