Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

So I was asking for some help with finding #CreativeCommons #graffiti art, and so far have not received help, but I decided to revisit an old project of mine where I actually created a blender Graffiti design and give it a refresh.
I know it is pretty rough, but hey, you can have it. I don't know how well protected @Blender s Suzanne is, but in terms of my original art, I consider this to be public domain, so CC-0

“A 404 Media reader has reformatted the Simple Sabotage Field Manual to be more legible as a PDF and shared it with us, so we’re going to share it with you.”
Something to keep a local copy of.

@joepie91 "capitalism is the most efficient system to allocate resources"
Yah, I bet it's efficient to just not allocate resources to the majority of people

Like, this one point basically defeats the *entirety* of the pro-capitalism talking points and rationales. "Efficiency", "beneficial self-interest", none of this crap works anymore the moment you realize that monopolies are the most efficient.
It defeats the ideological support structure for capitalism wholesale and leaves no viable remaining arguments. Zero.

Have you played a game in the creative management genre?
Examples: any game with "Sim", "Tycoon", "Planet", "Architect", or "Theme" in the title
The most efficient capitalist strategy is to construct a monopoly and honestly that is the point where literally any discussion on the 'merits of capitalism' and its ability to produce a functioning society should end
Regarding the Docker registry limiting its unauthenticated pulls...
If you're also using npm, you have a contingency plan for when that starts getting limited too, right? Right?
(It has grown with the exact same unsustainable commercial model)

Continuation of ereader battery replacement thread: I replaced the battery in my own ereader too (it's the same PRS-505 but in black), and I would like to remind you that we thought about batteries very differently back in 2007.
Did you forget that in 2007 you didn't have to plug your phone in every night? Remember the INDIGNITY you felt when you bought your first colour phone or even smartphone, and it sucked so much energy that you had to turn the screen off when you weren't using it?
Anyway, I put in a new battery and charged it five days ago, read for a couple of hours every day, and can report that last night the battery display dropped from four bars to three.
So that's probably three weeks between charges aye. On a 750mAh battery smaller than a box of tic-tacs.
Look what they've stolen from us. Demand better. We deserve better.
We zijn inmiddels 10 jaar verder en iedere discussie op Tweakers over piraterij is nog altijd een exacte kopie van de discussie van 10 jaar geleden, met dezelfde (non-)argumenten, dezelfde lege morele aantijgingen, dezelfde misvattingen, dezelfde dooddoeners, en vaak zelfs dezelfde mensen.
Moedeloos word je ervan. Geen enkele indicatie van zelfontwikkeling of uberhaupt serieus ingaan op de punten die er genoemd worden.

I’m looking for music reccomendations! 🎶🎧
Especially female vocalists like Neko Case, boygenius, Laura Veirs, Gillian Welch, The Secret Sisters.

Muis en Diederik komen niet bij.
De schuifdeur is open om de kamer te verwarmen (werkt nog niet echt), een vriendelijke koeienmestlucht waait door het huis.
Maar bovenal: schuifdeur! Open!
Dat betekent dat opeens door het dichte deel naar buiten kan worden gekeken (logisch). En dat EEN POOT door de schuifdeuropening kan worden gestoken zodat aan Terras, Takje, Blad, en Buitenlucht kan worden gevoeld.
Kat VD Buren 1 is door Diederik verjaagd door ernaar te kijken. Helpt. Nu Kat VD Buren 2 nog.

It feels almost bizarre to say, but at the end of this year almost all fossil fuel vehicles will have been eliminated from public transport in the four largest cities of the Netherlands. I remember when the large scale electrification of the bus vehicle fleet first started at the end of 2016, and that isn't even ten years ago!

Bumping this because I've once again come across Breadchain Cooperative in the wild. This is a reminder that it's not a cooperative because it operates on "one share/one vote" not "one member/one vote." It is a redwashing of a perfectly ordinary blockchain grift.

The trial period with the eCitaro at 
is going better than planned, starting Monday the eCitaro vehicles can be seen on all bus lines. This will also mean HTM is finally starting to retire the old CNG buses from 2009-2011 (these are considered old for Dutch standards).
From Monday 3 March, the articulated eCitaro will also be put on trial on line 24.

Tipp für Journalisten: Bevor du etwas über Züge schreibst, frage vielleicht jemanden, der sich mit Eisenbahnen auskennt, um einen Kommentar. So verhinderst du vielleicht, dass dein Artikel zwischen PR-Geschwafel und völligem Mist landet.
