En daarmee is de hele agenda van het privatiseren + het uitbreiden van politiebevoegdheden om zware criminaliteit aan te pakken bewezen een wassen neus en moeten we toch weer aan linkse hobbies als preventie en eisen aan zorgmedewerkers en vaste aanstellingen gaan doen. Het is niet anders. Rechts heeft gefaald tot op het bot. Experiment ten einde.

Interview met de gemeente Sittard-Geleen over hun digitale transformatie naar open source. Deze gemeente is lekker bezig! Sittard-Geleen is nu op zoek naar andere gemeenten of overheidsinstanties die mee willen helpen, mee willen doorontwikkelen, mee willen testen en mee willen financieren. https://opensourcewerken.nl/blog/view/2b82e1f0-85b0-4bc8-9277-0dc86105a835/geen-vendor-lock-in-voor-gemeente-sittard-geleen-wij-zitten-nu-aan-12000-per-jaar

Vanmorgen: een dame zet bij het stoplicht de auto per ongeluk in de achteruit en knalt zo een Harley met een woest uitziende kerel erop omver.

Vrouw stapt uit, duidelijk angstig voor de man… de motorrijder loopt op haar af, slaat zijn arm om haar heen en troost haar. Zo zie je maar: afgaan op het uiterlijk is niet het juiste uitgangspunt.

Dr. @CaribenxMarciaX, the creator of the fediblock hashtag, has written a personal history of the hashtag and it is MORE than worth your time.

The striking @NYTGuildTech have asked people not to play Wordle or other NYT games (https://www.polygon.com/news/474209/new-york-times-strike-wordle-connections). Instead, may I suggest #Metazooa? It's an animal guessing game where the clues are the taxonomic group containing both your guess and the animal of the day!

P. S. like Wordle, the sharing message includes a lot of emoji, so use a CW so you don't barrage screenreader users lol

I wrote down some thoughts on community moderation:

"Enablers of abuse in online communities" – https://piegames.de/dumps/enablers-of-abuse/

always fun to discover one of those forgotten interface pieces

NY Times tech union has asked users not to play Wordle or other Times games while they are on strike. It's a really easy way to support them. https://www.polygon.com/news/474209/new-york-times-strike-wordle-connections

I mean it about touching bikes being calming

There's something very reassuring about a machine that doesn't need petrol or electricity but can still take you 100km in a day

Got some spare tubes, a patching kit and some basic tools, maybe $20 worth, all fits in the bottom quarter of the saddlebags no problem leaving room for lots of snacks, and with that much it'll just Keep Going

As long as my legs work, this machine works, and there's enormous comfort in that.

Bikes make you aware of the power of your legs.

Weird gendered thing about the top versus bottom halves of your body: most women I know are aware of how strong their legs are, whereas when a bloke thinks about his strength, like he's gonna try and move something heavy, he tends to think of his arms and chest and back. I've seen many fresh new trans lads suddenly becoming more aware of their shoulders or biceps for example.

Which, like, even a really strong person's arms don't have nearly as much torque or endurance as the most thoroughly ordinary leg. So after a couple of times of looking down at my little ten-dollar Sunding speedo/odometer and seeing Just How Far I'd gone, I think it kinda altered my relationship with my legs? Like now, when I have to do something that needs a lot of strength, even like unscrewing a big rusted bolt, I keep thinking of how this would be much easier if I could let my legs do it instead of my arms? I move differently, I stand differently, I'm more aware of this whole half of my body I've been under-using

And I say this to the women and femme and AFAB people in my life and they're like ??? you didn't know??, and the not-bike-riding cis blokes I talk to about it go ??? oh huh yeah I guess, wild???

It's almost as if modern american carcentric life has hidden my whole entire legs from me lol

Soo, I fried my #framework motherboard.

I'm looking for a framework 13 motherboard, intel 12 or 13 gen.

DM me if you upgraded your laptop recently. I'll buy the old one from you.

Retoot appreciated.
