Anyway, if there is anyone working on alternative mapping systems to avoid relying on the us government for data or something like that definitely let me know, I have worked to move from ESRI products to QGIS and other open source tools in multiple jobs. Happy to give some time or assistance to anyone mapping for a good cause

Iedereen (nogmaals) bedankt voor boosten en meedenken!!! ❤️

Edit 2. Sorry voor de overlast hoor, maar de wens is heel groot: ik probeer het nog één keer! ⬇️

Ik ben op zoek naar dit #boek van #FloraWaycott. Overal uitverkocht. Iemand die het in zijn boekenkast heeft staan en er niets mee doet en er van af wil?
Of iemand die het toch ergens te koop weet (in Europa)? #dtv

Edit: Ik zoek de Nederlandse versie.

Valve won't let me transfer ownership of Ben Lubar (Steamworks partner group) from Ben Lubar (account created because you can't make a partner group while being in a partner group) to Ben Lubar (normal account) unless I print out a letter explaining why I need to do this on company letterhead and get the CEO to sign it, then scan it in

which is hard because I don't have letterhead or a CEO

🌠 Never underestimate the power of a job half done. Really, doing *some* dishes makes doing the rest of the dishes later that much easier. You don't need to completely finish the thing, just do the next step and come back to it when you can.

How many characters must one type on a keyboard to make a heart?

Less than three.

@nyquildotorg @joepie91 You can read this post from one of the authors, I've linked it below, but TL;DR; it's a debug MMIO register region seemingly belonging to the GPU, and the "secret hash" is 0xC5ACCE55 - it's part of official ARM documentation.

I find it a stretch to call it a "hardware backdoor", a big fuckup, sure, but it doesn't seem deliberate.

A mobile pop up library/hammock stand? Yes please!

Everyone is talking about Apple trying to resist the UK's demand to put backdoors in their software, but hardly anyone is talking about the backdoor they actually put in their hardware.

"Kaspersky’s researchers affirmatively and without question found a deliberately concealed, never documented, deliberately locked but unlockable with a secret hash, hardware backdoor which was designed into all Apple devices starting with the A12, A13, A14, A15 and A16"

just noting down for the NRW BDSM bubble that DifferentEvents/Sadasia Dortmund defines "woman" as "no penis" in their events.

Dit is gaaf, 55 minuten lang meekijken met diverse technische werkzaamheden in VIRM in de NS-werkplaats Haarlem.

Real talk: Google, Meta, X and Amazon have been stifling innovation in the tech space, for decades at this point, by eliminating competition via buying or burying them. They're at the top of the pile not because they're the best companies, but because they're the most ruthless.

All known human languages display a surprising pattern: the most frequent word in a #language is twice as frequent as the second most frequent, three times as frequent as the third, and so on.

The same pattern is universally found across human languages bit also occurs in #whale song.

This complex signaling system, like human language, is culturally learned by each individual from others.

I wrote up some notes about #DBus, how it works (to my knowledge), and how to use it - that hopefully are more understandable than most articles on the topic: https://wiki.slightly.tech/books/miscellaneous-notes/page/working-with-dbus
