Ugh. One of the worst apps on my phone (which I use because the door controls are even worse), which controls the appliance that I *ALREADY* overpaid for, is switching to a subscription model.
I get to maintain "free" access… for now.
I'd hate this less If this app wasn't so terrible.
"But maintaining an app costs money!" you say.
Of course it does, but they need to do that to sell new ovens, anyway, and this is a secondary offering. They sold me the appliance, not the app (but now both…).
This is the #Anova Precision Oven, btw. They have a new version. Despite how much I use the v1 oven, I don't think I can recommend the v2, given this cash grab.
Two weeks ago I had to tear into this thing to fix a wire that wore through, inside the door, prematurely. I fixed it by soldering, shrink-tubing, kapton taping. This is not normal "I bought an appliance less than 5 years ago" stuff.
If I didn't actually *use* this thing so much, I'd pretty seriously look into replacing the firmware.
Qualified no as the university I went to is currently engaged in actions I disagree with strongly so I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore.
I'm a qualified yes. As long as the fediverse is relatively marginal, I would hesitate to spend energy having several context-specific accounts. But my ideal would be to have as many accounts as there are significant contexts in my life.
I would probably use it for the Game Development Club, which I'm hoping to revive. Until my university starts their own server, my own is pretty adequate for that task
I would not create an account on it, as I already have one. But I would be happy if my previous universities even just had their own account to follow, regardless of server.
Qualified no as I don't need yet another Mastodon account. If it's not Mastodon I would move my personal one to it, though if I have to migrate out of my personal account unexpectedly I would probably take the Mastodon anyway.
projecting from when i went: i didn't use the email address i got from them so i wouldn't use my account. but i would happily engage with those that do, especially staff
a server only for students would probably result in the most unbearably smug and patronising atmosphere imaginable xD And I say this as a student myself.
@uastronomer Option 5 (a variation of option 2): “Yes, I'd join the 5 other nerds on there, but I would definitely still keep most of my socializing on the student Slack/Discord, where 99% of the other kids will be.” 😂
This morning we saw the first ever tornado warning issued for San Francisco. Seeing many reports of wind and water damage around NorCal today.
A tornado may not have actually touched down in SF but, with the direction the climate is going, I'm glad to know our alerting systems work.
Take it from those of us in fire country and who have friends and family who've lost houses, loved ones, and more to delayed alerts: it's far better to err on the side of caution.
Does anyone see "More from" below my last two link posts? I feel like I have everything right but I don't see it locally. Might also be under the post from my test account at @vees@sharkey.dmv.pub

Pardon everyone, please. The continuation of forced labor in America has been sickening to watch. I know that many are in denial that we still have slavery, but even if you don’t care about the slaves directly, know that it still hurts you.
The US president commuted the house arrest sentences of hundreds of people and pardoned dozens convicted of non-violent crimes. The move comes after his controversial decision to pardon his son Hunter.
I hope we solve things like fascism and climate change soon so we can get down to the really important work: Designing coasters that don't stick to the bottom of my 🤬 glass.

Every major corporation budgets for product-liability settlements. They know it is often cheaper to settle a claim than to fight it and win. Worse for them, fighting and losing means not only paying the damage award, it means correcting the flaw in their product. By settling the claims, they can keep selling products that hurt people.
Paying people their product hurt so they can sell the product again is just a cost of doing business.

How about a nice #sudoku game for #plasmamobile, nice with #kirigami ui, using your plasma theme? It is of course very much in prototyping stage, everything is qml - no backend - but it is actually possible to play it even if there is no checking - let alone fanphares - if you finsh a game ... Next step is adding support for pencilmarks, which is likey tricky.
I'm fully focused on mobile behavior, but it can of course be made to work nicely in desktop as well ...
You know ‘the time’ has come: you must wake up now: our salvation is even nearer than it was when we were converted. The night is almost over, it will be daylight soon – let us give up all the things we prefer to do under cover of the dark; let us arm ourselves and appear in the light.
One of the advantages of deploying Kitten sites/apps is that you can set up a webhook URL in your source code repository so that every time you push to your main branch, you app automatically updates.
(This is a feature for developers. For everyday people who use technology as an everyday thing, Kitten sites deployed via Domain will automatically update based on a versioning system that ensures API stability between the app and Kitten so that sites don’t break. Kitten itself also auto-updates.)
On the Codeberg/Forgejo side, they use git hooks to make a HTTPS request to the webhook URL whenever there’s a push (in this case, only to the main branch).
On the Kitten side, Kitten deploys apps from their git repositories so all it has to do is pull in the latest changes.
This is the webhook code on the Kitten side of things:

@metacurity@infosec.exchange A-men! And what do those 550 employees actually *do*? And as someone that has worked in IT for over 30 years (at all levels) you damn well better know it doesn't cost anywhere NEAR the amount of money that Wikipedia says they spend on infrastructure and hosting costs annually. Smells more like a money laundering operation for Jimmy Wales than anything else.
If you actually want to advocate for Long COVID, you have to tell the story of the 90% of Long COVID cases that look like something else.
Did you suddenly get diabetes type I after a COVID case? Probably caused by COVID. Did you suddenly get high blood pressure after never having it before? Probably COVID. Did your ADHD get so much worse you had to completely change and increase your medication? COVID. Did you fall into a deep depression? Did you find yourself having a temper? COVID COVID.
Alcohol intolerance? COVID. Caffeine intolerance? COVID. Arthritis at 30? COVID. Interstitial cystitis, esp in men? Absolutely COVID.
Sudden IBS/IBD after a lifetime of no gut problems? That's COVID. Celiac's disease at mid-life? Probably COVID.
The destruction of health by tiny degrees, by hammer blows of infection, each of which knock something else just a little out of alignment. It's gonna flower soon, and all of a sudden.
Your friend who is SURE that they "would have heard about it" if COVID was causing all this stuff, passes a billboard that says
Can't drink alcohol anymore? Looks like Long COVID.
and comes up to you and says "you know how alcohol has been hitting me super hard lately and making me feel really sick for days? Do you think that could be a form of Long COVID?"
Boom. Step one to reversing the gaslighting of America.
My cousins 36 yr old son died from strep throat a year ago. He had huge polyps in his throat that were down so far the doctor couldn’t see them. He was at home & they burst, drowning him. Did I mention he was an antivaxxer who believed COVID was just a cold?
If conservatives would do this towards the woke lefts businesses, we could bankrupt them within months. But you all just won’t do it. I just can’t understand why you won’t.

Justice is coming to thousands upon thousands for their corruption, crimes against humanity, treason, child & sex trafficking, drug trafficking, & other heinous crimes, it is best we get our terminology right.
Jail & prison are often used interchangeably as places of confinement. If you want to be specific jail can be used to describe a place for those awaiting trial or held for minor crimes, whereas prison describes a place for criminals convicted of serious crimes.
as a sysadmin this so much. It’s one thing to say "oopsie something went wrong" and provide a button for the professionals to see where it went wrong and it’s another to just not provide any diagnostic information so I get to debug a black box.

The non-profit, free certificate authority Let's Encrypt shared some news from their executive director as they approach their 10th anniversary in 2025:

Liebe Spenderinnen und Spender, liebe Freundinnen und Freunde,
Millionen Syrerinnen und Syrer wagten nicht mehr davon zu träumen und nun ist es innerhalb weniger Tage geschehen: Das verhasste, barbarische Assad-Regime ist wie ein Kartenhaus in sich zusammengestürzt. Wir blicken in die strahlenden Gesichter der syrischen Familien, die es noch immer kaum glauben können. „Das ist der schönste Moment in meinem Leben!" sagt Mo. „Nach langen Jahren der Erniedrigung, Angst, Unterdrückung, Hunger und Vertreibung hat das syrische Volk endlich seine Freiheit erlangt. Ich hoffe, dass die kommenden Tage Stabilität und Hoffnung für die kommenden Generationen bringen", wünscht sich Asmaa.
In die große Freude über den Sturz Assads mischt sich allerdings schon jetzt Sorge - vor allem bei denen, die ethnischen oder religiösen Minderheiten angehören: „Hoffentlich wird das Kommende besser!" schreibt Rana, die Angst um ihre christlichen Verwandten hat, aber auch unter den Menschen kurdischer Herkunft ist die Sorge um ihre Verwandten groß. Alle Hoffnungen richten sich nun darauf, dass es den unterschiedlichen politischen und religiösen Kräften im Land gelingt, nicht nur für Stabilität zu sorgen, sondern auch ein freies, gerechtes und gleichberechtigtes Syrien aufzubauen. Das Fenster in eine solche Zukunft ist nun zumindest aufgestoßen. Es bleibt abzuwarten, was sich daraus entwickelt, denn kaum ein Land im Nahen Osten ist durch eine vergleichbare Vielfältigkeit an verschiedenen Gruppen geprägt. Die unterschiedlichen Interessen und Kriegserfahrungen in einer umsichtigen Politik zu bündeln, ist eine Herkulesaufgabe mit ungewissem Ausgang.
Für uns Flüchtlingspaten bedeutet die momentane Lage in #Syrien ebenfalls erst einmal abzuwarten und zu schauen, wie sich die Situation - besonders in humanitärer Hinsicht - entwickelt. Aber auch die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen für unsere Arbeit hier in Deutschland stehen auf der Kippe: Nachdem das Bundesamt für Migration und Flüchtlinge (BAMF) überraschend schnell mitgeteilt hat, die Entscheidung über alle ausstehenden Asylanträge von Menschen aus Syrien auszusetzen, steht zu befürchten, dass auch das Landesaufnahmeprogramm Berlin, auf dessen rechtlicher Basis wir arbeiten, nicht verlängert wird. Ab dem 1. Januar 2025 würde dann die Rechtsgrundlage für den Familiennachzug über Verpflichtungserklärungen fehlen.
Unsere Arbeit hat sich mit Assads Sturz alles andere als erledigt. Wer uns kennt, weiß, dass wir mit jeder Verpflichtungserklärung finanzielle Verantwortung übernehmen. Die letzten Familiennachzüge haben wir im Februar 2024 zugesagt. Bis heute sind diese Menschen noch nicht in Berlin angekommen, da das Verfahren immer weiter in die Länge zieht. Für insgesamt 70 Menschen tragen wir daher weiterhin die Verantwortung. Sie endet erst nach Ablauf der jeweiligen Verpflichtungserklärung 5 Jahre nach der Einreise.
Eindringlich möchten wir deshalb dafür werben, die Spenden an unseren Verein nicht einzustellen. Denn unsere finanzielle Verantwortung tragen wir natürlich weiter!
Gerade mit Blick auf einen möglichen Wiederaufbau in Syrien erscheint es perspektivisch wichtig, die Menschen hier in ihren Qualifikationsbemühungen zu unterstützen und diejenigen, die sich hier eingelebt haben fit für den Arbeitsmarkt zu machen. Auch diese Aufgaben bleiben von der augenblicklichen Lage in Syrien erst einmal unberührt.
Darüber, wie es ab dem kommenden Jahr weitergeht, werden wir informieren, sobald die Lage mehr Klarheit zulässt.
Nun aber nehmen wir die augenblickliche Freude über das Ende der tyrannischen Herrschaft und die Chance auf ein freies Syrien mit. Wann gab es zuletzt ein solch positives weltpolitisches Ereignis?!
Vielleicht mag die Eine oder der Andere unseren untenstehenden Spendenlink in der Weihnachtszeit mit Freundinnen und Freunden teilen. Für uns wäre das ein großes Geschenk, um diejenigen Kündigungen von Spenden, die uns in den letzten Tagen erreichten, auszugleichen.
In diesem Sinne wünschen wir Ihnen und Euch friedliche und erholsame Weihnachtstage und alles, alles Gute für das neue Jahr.
Ihre / Eure Katrin Albrecht, Tina Mede, Remo Klinger, Charlotte Dreyer Flüchtlingspaten Syrien e.V. - fluechtlingspaten-syrien.de/
@pna@fed.dyne.org Imagine all the extra energy and electricity that's going to use as millions of clients have to process those requests (generating new private keys and submitting the CSRs via ACME to Let's Encrypt.) Not to mention all the extra energy in the extra data and banwidth that needs to be process and deliver all those requests and transactions. Then there's the added electricity and bandwidth Let's Encrypt's own PKI infrastructure needs to process and issue all those certificates. They are talking about a 1400% increase in traffic and requests. It probably means a whole lot more servers, HSMs, networking, etc. All consuming electricity. Here we are worried about the environmental impact of AI, but there is a tangible environmental impact to certificates with 6 day life cycles, too.

"EU Commission tried to influence political views in the Netherlands. In the contentious fight over the heavily criticized chat control regulation (a proposed EU law that could undermine all encrypted online communication to allow authorities to read online chats), the European Commission has identified the Netherlands as a Member State that they wanted to influence politically. In an attempt to "flip" the views in the Netherlands, the Commission went to X/Twitter and made postings indirectly promoting this Regulation."

Spontaneous #KDE sprint in @carl's kitchen yesterday. Last time we did that it started the work on the per-trip timeline view of Itinerary.

Isn't it funny how it's a felony to open physical mail before it's delivered, but it's perfectly fine for #Google #Yahoo #Microsoft etc to scan your mail for advertising profiling? A public #nonprofit free #email service is greatly needed. Even one that could run partially on donations like public radio/television. All email clients with a smidge of #privacy cost money that a lot of people can't afford right now. The #Proton free tier seems too restrictive for most. Email is mandatory nowadays
😆 The no virus crew is working hard to stay relevant.
Niel Oliver points out it's much more important to focus on what they did in the name of the virus than whether one exists or where it came from.
I mean... What's more important? Whether a special molecule with special properties exists or not or the response to the idea that it exists which caused a lot of deaths (by murder)? 🤔
So they inject David Icke to refocus again on the importance of whether the virus exists but not on why it matters. 🤔
Anyhow probably only worth skimming (like what I did).
We are left to discover all these things we should have known. It robs us of both surprise and intelligence. In other words: don’t feel brilliant you dumbass. That is what I feel awaits us…
