  1. @shom I used #freesoftware to slice up and merge PDFs from various textbooks to produce reading packets. (#TeXLive's #pdfjam, also recommend @pdfarranger).

    Took the trouble to get them approved by the copyright compliance police in University Libraries. Been distributing them with a clear conscience and a light heart for many years.

    I hope I have students who will remember me the way you remember that teacher of yours.

  6. @shom Okay so I didn't want to post a pic of Handsome Hau b/c of privacy, so I took the first pic to gently suggest that he does not not look like that.

    An hour later he poses next to "a sculpture of my brother, look, we look so much alike!" so I guess I'm okay to post the second pic 😬

  11. I knew I wasn't taking advantage of the power of multi-path undo possibilities in Emacs but it never clicked with me, until I found vundo thanks to @sacha's recent post.

    This package visualizes the undo history as nodes that you can traverse and diff in a very familiar git branch paradigm. Quick post: https://shom.dev/posts/20250622_undo-finally-clicked-with-vundo/

  12. @shom I looked for it everywhere. I'm assuming it is at the nginx levlel, but I even looked through authelia's setting as well, just in case. I'm stumped. Unless is also looking at nginx files in different locations and I missed it? That's something I can look into.

  13. If you have been thinking about joining the System Crafters¹ webring but didn't have a site, now it should be pretty easy and I'm happy to help you integrate Craftering² (powered by Ringfairy³ from @kern, or start your own!).

    Actually, I probably should add a custom footer overlay example to the starter site*, already sliding down scope creep slope.

  19. I'm having another go at using #MastodonLists so I don't miss posts from people but I had a question and hoping someone knows...

    Is it possible to share lists with someone? For example - my Tech list, my News list - at the moment I've created one and named it 'ShomilasList - MastoTips, Tech, News, AI, Funny'.

    I can't find a way to do anything other than edit (title and add/remove people), delete list or pin it.

    It would be great if personal lists could be available to get started on the #Fediverse quicker. I've enjoyed finding people organically but it could be really useful to have ready made lists of people - made by people you know. Especially as who you follow makes so much difference to the experience. @admin - is the list functionality specific to our instance?

  20. @shom I've looked at the concepts and figured that the way #asm3 # is handling things is the most appealing to me - especially after the #topologicalnamingproblem isn't a problem anymore. You can find a comparison on the #asm3 #github repo: github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD
    I'm afraid you have to make up your mind on your own 🙃
    Besides realthunders the #github repo, this is a great resource regarding #asm3 tutorials: help-freecad-jpg87.fr/ 2/2

    Thanks for the welcome!

    > And despite popular beliefs you don't have to buy a to fit in with the cool kids

    Haha. Glad to see a lot of familiar folks here.

    > not sure if I'll be able to see the ones I didn't boost in the future, need to backup.

    This is the first time I am transferring to a new Mastodon instance. I'll need to figure out how to access my old posts once that instance is down.

  22. The Shompen are one of the most isolated tribes on Earth. They live on Great Nicobar Island in India, and most of them refuse all contact with outsiders.

    Numbering between 100 and 400, they are now at risk of being totally wiped out by a “mega-development” plan of the Indian government.

    Please tell India’s Tribal Affairs Minister that the project must be scrapped, or the Shompen will be wiped out. 🙏🏼🪷 #petition #indigenoustribe #Shompen #India #pleasesign

  23. Book review: **Dimitri Shomsky**. Did Zionism Seek to Establish a Nation-State? The Zionist Political Imagination from Pinsker to Ben-Gurion (1882-1948)

    Dimitri Shomsky's book challenges the conventional narrative of Zionist aspirations, arguing that before the Peel Commission's 1937 proposal to partition Palestine, the dominant Zionist vision wasn't necessarily a fully independent nation-state. Instead, Shomsky posits that many Zionist leaders favored a model of Jewish autonomy within existing empires, drawing parallels to similar aspirations of other nationalities within the Austro-Hungarian, Russian, and Ottoman empires.

    He examines the writings of key Zionist figures like #Herzl, #Jabotinsky, and Ben-Gurion, highlighting instances where their proposals suggested a degree of autonomy rather than outright independence.

    The book also explores the influence of the "Helsinki Program," a plan focusing on securing equal rights for Jews within the Russian Empire. Shomsky's work introduces previously unknown Russian-language materials, particularly concerning Jabotinsky's dual commitment to both Jewish nationalism and his deep-rooted connection to his Russian identity.

    The author ultimately presents an alternative historical perspective on Zionism, suggesting a path that could have been, but wasn't, taken.

    Review by Anita Shapira, Professor Emerita, Department of Jewish History, Tel Aviv University.

  24. 'Death Knell for Shompen People': Genocide Experts Urge President to Stop Great Nicobar Mega Project

    By changing the demography and allowing the population on the island to surge by 8,000%, the experts say, the proposal could prove detrimental to the Shompen people, who have lived on the island for thousands of years largely without contact with outsiders.

  25. Ōhara was the teaching centre of Tendai 'shōmyō' (声明), a style of Buddhist chant that employed the Yo scale (a pentatonic scale also used in gagaku 雅楽).

    The area's rivers were named after the ancient chromatic scale: Ro-gawa (呂川) after the 6 even-numbered notes (呂曲) and Ritsu-gawa (律川) after the 6 odd (律曲).
    Ōhara is also home to the beautiful 'Otonashi-no-taki' (音無の滝 'Silent Waterfall'), featured in The Tale of Genji.
