  1. 7.0.4+deb14-amd64

    I'm very happy with the #Linux 7 kernel that I've been rolling with on #Debian 14 the past couple of weeks.

    Oh my! Yes, and some folks even tried to navigate while underway, taking their eyes off the road to flip pages. I think I still have at least one collecting dust on a bookshelf but they were indeed indispensable back when :)

    Nowadays I'm trying to wean myself from Google Maps and love this newer application that simplifies what #OSMAnd provides. And it's surprisingly simple.

    #CoMaps is available at F-Droid and for iPhone users too HERE. I try to use it about 50% of the time and it doesn't disappoint.

    Hey Todd, got you covered, although I wouldn't call it an alternative. It's the whole kitten-kabootle, complete ERP. It's not my bread & butter, but it is my butter, offering it as a managed SaaS solution for many customers serious about their CFO's having the very best to run their companies, including cash or accrual, AR/AP, Inventory, payroll, reporting, multi-national taxation, and any kind of chart of accounts that tickles your fancy.

    As an engineer, most of it is beyond my total comprehension and way above my pay grade, not surprising, since I had to get a dedicated girlfriend in college just to pass a required accounting course, but I keep their machines running smoothly and they all tell me how grateful they are for insisting they at least kick the tires and take it around the block, instead of all those proprietary psuedo-alternatives they wanted me to install, some of those clients almost two decades now.

    Lemme know how you like it, k?

  6. NOTE: This is a repost from the Fediverse-City Matrix Room.

    I meant to post on the progress that @toddsundsted has been making on kristec.

    You can also checkout this ambitious project itself at:

    https://github.com/toddsundsted/ktistec

    I've been thoroughly impressed with all of the publishing features of his Fediverse server.

    Some of the shortcomings, if that's how you choose to view them, might be that it's essentially a smolweb server leveraging noSQL and an accounts database that trusts all users as literal admins.

    But if you're looking to self-host, and your primary interest is in publishing your own material on the #Fediverse, then this may be just the thing you've been looking for.

    I cannot atest to the veracity of his claims because I haven't actually installed or tested its capabilities, but it's indeed a laundry list of features I've been hoping to see - leaving that Twitter style cloning of communications in the past, like I've been hoping for.

    So for those interested, if you're impressed with the capabilities that #PieFed and #Mitra and #Socialhome bring to the table then here's a fourth initiative that is both visionary and inciteful in it's ambitions.

    Your thoughts, observations?

  9. @tedu

    Yup. And some time ago too, I might add. The ability to take what works so well and complicate it to the point of absurdity never ceases to amaze.

    #Margaret_Hamilton put two men on the moon with 4K of memory. 8K if you're counting the additional RAM on the Columbia's #AGC.

    Well if you ever figure out how to lookup your NIC-HANDLE, as they're officially called (or rather, were), I'm BT-74 👋🤠

    Yeah, that goes back to the days of "Direct Assignment" when #SRI also operated under the auspices of NIC.DDN.MIL.

    Yeah.... Them powerful rich folk get a bit hot under the collar when you make their money go missing.

    Maybe he should have been a liquor store strong armed robber instead, coz he'd be outta jail by now.

    And his conversion to being a Crystal Methodist didn't help things much either.

  16. New Bitchen' Timestamps in Mitra!

    Short, i.e., 3m, 4h, Apr 14, 5d, and Dec 16, 2022. Need the full timestamp? No Prob! Just hover w/your mouse. That last post, for example, would display "December 16, 2022 at 3:23 AM PST" (If you're sitting in my seat right now).

    Yeah, that's from a real post of mine, which is HERE.

    Enjoy!

    Jason what time of day (the dew) did you snap that pic? Or did you mist it before taking the photo? Nasturtium, I'll have to lookup that Genus.

    Regardless, it's a beautiful shot. Thanks for sharing!

  18. Liable "only if it intended that the provided service be used for infringement"

    8 years in the making, The US Supreme Court affirms that a provider is merely... a provider, and not complicit in the illegal acts that some of it's subscribers engage in.

    You would think that this was a matter of common sense, but where deep pockets are involved... Well, Read on young Grasshoppa*, and while you're at it, *try to snatch the pebble from my hand. That's the lay version in common sense language.

    For what it's worth, I say, Boom Shakalaka BOOM 💥 Mic Drop 🎤

    #tallship #SCOTUS #justice #piracy #ISP

  19. Two weeks ago Cindy Cohn, the lawyer made famous in 1993 for Bernstein v. Department of Justice, held a Book Release party w/Corey Doctorow and has now announced that she's stepping down on 01 June, to be replaced by Nicole Ozer.

    It will be interesting to see how the new skipper pilots that vessel, and especially in regards to the atrocious volley of legislation like California's AB 1043, that already has people preparing to disenfranchise Californians through changes in their licenses or AUP/ToS - forbidding people residing in California from using services seems to many as a sensible solution to the antics of an insane, despotic legislature; To others, it is a knee-jerk reaction to something that may never come to pass.

    Anyway, here's the scoop on that announcement:

    #tallship #Cindy_Cohn #Nicole_Ozer #FOSS #KYC #Industrial_Surveillance #Privacy #Identity

  20. I just left Cindy Cohn's Presentation and book release party via remote stream.

    Cindy is the Executive director of the EFF, and came to prominence regarding the Bernstein case against the prohibition of "strong encryption" a few years back during the Clinton administration.

    Today, the industrial surveillance special interests are being aided again by socialist governments in the form of California_Digital_Age_Assurance_Act (AB 1043), and I was fortunate enough to have her directly address my question about just what we're going to do to defeat this and other criminal lawfare against our identity and privacy.

    My question was the first question asked (and answered, sort of), and long before the Q&A that is supposed to wrap up the presentation, but I must say that I was a bit disappointed in that she really had nothing to offer other than to say we need to fight this.

    Yes, of course we do. From my point of view, as part of my terms of service for a few years now, I've done what #Midnight_BSD has done by prohibiting Californians from using their OS by changes to the licensing - perhaps this is the way to go for all of us? Letting California (and Colorado) descend into the socialist abyss of third world dystopian decay; unable to compete and compute in a world that has left them behind and turned its back on them.

    It's certainly worked out well for me. Due to the #GDPR and #CCPA I prohibit all residents of the #EU and #California, respectively, from using any online services that I provide or host - even though all of my services are actually GDPR and CCPA compliant.

    I'll post a follow up here once I get the URL for the on-demand recording of Cindy (and Corey Doctorow), so that you can follow along and hear what they're prepared to do about AB 1043 (and similar legislation in Colorado)... unfortunately, she didn't actually impress me with any sort of game plan to protect the FOSS community from this latest implementation of dystopian socialist surveillance.
