I have a multi ladder thing with smallish rungs leaned against the house in back. Last week I went out and one of my cats was on the roof meowing at me. Not sure if he could come back down so I went and got him.

I'm looking to degoogle but have learnt that none of the alternate phone OSs support samsung phones due to them being locked down pretty tightly. I can't afford a new phone.
If I stay with the stock android OS and change all of my google services to alternatives, can google still spy on those services (email, calendar, task lists)?
I've already disabled Gemini and most google services except email, calendar and tasks

Sailors travel to the Broken Islands for solitude, with the expectation that others will not anchor too closely. For the past 2 days boats have been anchoring very, and I mean very near us(Gulf Islands in August on a weekend kind of close). With a gale on no less.
Seems like Pino attracts both hummingbirds *and* boats.

MPV with yt-dlp lets you stream from all the same services. With yt-dlp, by itself, you can download from them. If Tor is running, you can even use Tor. You have to be careful to keep yt-dlp up to date. You shouldn't install the version in your distro. It's always going to be about 3 years old and mostly useless.
MinusBrowser (you already knew I was a user of it) has this built in. You can use the Gopher service IdiotBox to search YouTube, and just click on the links. You do have to have the dependencies installed: MPV, XTerm, and Zenity. You also need the plug-in script at codeberg.org/giXzkGsc/Minus-Pr… That plug-in script, yt.sh, will install and keep yt-dlp up to date.
I don't use a smartphone, so the phone app is useless to me. I only connect to the Internet with a PC running a Linux distro. I favor Mint, Linux Lite, and MX Linux. I sometimes use Tails, but I don't like using Gnome as my DE.

I'm sure they'll patch this out eventually. I've seen a few projects that are making pre-configured Windows installers that completely skip all the setup and just drop you into a desktop with a default user account and all the telemetry disabled,.
‼️ La Justicia gallega prohíbe a la Xunta habilitar nuevas macrogranjas en la comarca de A Limia
Así lo ordena el TS de Justicia de Galicia en la sentencia –a la que ha tenido acceso 'Climática'– que condena al Gobierno regional por la contaminación del embalse de As Conchas, en A Limia. Tampoco podrán ampliarse las explotaciones existentes. “Es una medida que no tiene ningún precedente y de enorme calado”, celebra uno de los abogados de los vecinos damnificados.
Europe, Asia, and the rest of the world need to wake up to the reality that America is gone, and it's not coming back. Not in our generation, maybe not in a few. The world needs to move on, take the hit, handle the recession, and admit we have a new hermit kingdom on Earth.
"But Quinn, you don't know how much that destroys the global economy and global systems!" Yeah I do, it's going to completely horrible. People will suffer and die, but they are doing that right now, and the rich world is ignoring it, because it's USAID for that? It's dead, it's gone, it's not coming back. If America does come back, it won't ever be the same.
It's broken, we're broken, we're breaking the world. If you refuse to acknowledge the situation, you can't cope with it. The king is mad, and Olympus is fallen, the the fortress is breached, whatever metaphor works for you.
What doesn't work is pretending things are normal, or that you can deal with America like it's a normal nation. It's a nuclear super power gone mad.
If you weren't raised in a dangerously abusive house navigating around a deranged and violent relative, well, now is your chance to learn how to do that.
In general it's to get away as much as you can, don't confront them, and slowly but surely cut them out of your life.
It took a few Scottish sci-fi authors to point this out, but it is the most obvious fact about the concept. Money is a technology for triaging scarcity. It is something you only need when you have to…
I’ve been thinking about this , too- and I agree with you. It’s not coming back. But we need to be thinking about where we want to go in the aftermath of this. There were endemic problems in the US prior to this- and we should aim to solve for those moving forward. I mean, it’s going to be bad for sure. But “getting it back” I think inadvertently implies “back” is someplace we should want to get to again. And given it led to where we are now, I’m not so sure.
Top church leaders in the Holy Land asserted Monday that Israeli authorities “facilitate and enable” the presence of Israeli settlers who have intensified attacks in recent weeks on the only entirely Christian Palestinian village remaining in the occupied West Bank.
Greek Orthodox Patriarch Theophilos III and Latin Patriarch Pierbattista Pizzaballa denounced an incident last week when settlers set fires near the community’s church.
The UK-wide protests on Saturday 12 July against the proscription of Palestine Action have exposed a stark divide in the policing response across different forces.
Raids and repression to different degrees across the country are indicative of the chaos the government has unleashed with its order that permits police to treat protestors holding cardboard signs as if they were terrorists.

Hani al-Dali explains to Al Mayadeen how the Palestinian Resistance's actions and conditions are shaping ceasefire talks and challenging "Israel's" plans in Gaza.
The #US has imposed sanctions on #UN Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur Francesca #Albanese for using her position to oppose the most thoroughly documented #genocide in #history.
At the same time, the US has removed #Syria’s Al Qaeda franchise #HTS from its list of designated terrorist organizations, because its leader successfully carried out the regime change in Damascus that the western empire had been chasing for years.
At the same time, the #UK has added nonviolent anti-genocide activism group #PalestineAction to its list of banned terrorist organizations for opposing the #Gaza holocaust.
At the same time, the Israeli prime minister who is carrying out that holocaust has nominated the American president who is helping him perpetrate genocidal atrocities for a Nobel Peace Prize.
At the same time, Israel has continued its ban on foreign journalists entering Gaza, while also arresting the Israeli journalist who helped expose the #IDF officials who cooked up fake atrocity propaganda about burnt babies on# October7.
At the same time, the #Trump administration has enraged its MAGA base by concluding that Jeffrey #Epstein had no client list for any kind of sexual blackmail operation and definitely committed suicide.
The western empire is one nonstop insult to our intelligence. The peace advocates are terrorists, the genocide architects deserve peace prizes, the journalists are dangerous, and Epstein was just a wealthy socialite who made a few mistakes.
They do everything they can to make us stupid via #propaganda, Silicon Valley information control, and indoctrination schooling systems, and then they treat us like we’re morons for the rest of our lives.
The empire depends on ignorance. The more stupid, racist, gullible, and easily distracted we become, the nastier agendas the empire can roll out. Now here we are watching a live-streamed genocide unfold right in front of our eyes for nearly two years while being tube fed a daily diet of the most ridiculous lies imaginable.
As Aaron Bushnell said, this is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.
ANYONE WONDER WHY ALL THE FLOODING IS HAPPENING IN PLACES' WHERE THE COUNTRY OR STATES IS NOT ALWAYS ALIGNING WITH HEGEMONY FROM WASHGINGTO DC AND NATO? DO YOUR RESEARCH!
The company I work at (a plumbing and heating merchant) is having a massive push on renewables - heat pumps, solar, full works. Great! Much sustainable, many aura points.
In the background, I've been informed last week that marketing copy for the products we sell is now going to be generated by AI, and one of my responsibilities going forwards is going to be checking it for accuracy. This is on top of having Gemini thrust upon me and every meeting watching everyone using that god-forsaken "summary" tool* instead of just taking notes with a pen like a normal fucking human being.
Like, ffs, guys, the environmental impact of AI is hardly unknown here.
*as a rational human being, this has incentivised me to up my previously natural *mild but non-zero* usage of cockney rhyming slang to the max.
Fuck you, I will have Google thinking we're a butchers shop based in Barnet selling loaves of bread and pork pies to Scooby-Doo and Pete Tong by the end of August.
Estamos aquí viendo con horror como cada vez se juntan más nazis en Torre Pacheco pero os voy a decir una cosa: si miráis los canales de Telegram donde se mueven los votantes de extrema derecha (no hablo de los nazis que se van allí a pegar palos a inmigrantes, hablo de votantes) como el canal de Alvise, por ejemplo, tienen montada tremenda máquina de realidad alternativa donde son los inmigrantes quienes se organizan y básicamente van matando por la calle con machetes a todos los españoles con los que se cruzan.
Ponen imágenes que no se corresponden con los sucesos, de otros países, de otros momentos, incluso de casos donde pintan a víctimas de agresiones homófobas por parte de la extrema derecha de víctimas de los malvados comandos magrebíes. Sin vergüenza ninguna.
¿Y sabéis qué? Da igual que les digas que esas imágenes no se corresponden con los sucesos, esas personas han elegido vivir en esa realidad alternativa y en eses canales están pidiendo: SANGRE.
@jozsi en las próximas elecciones generales esta gente va a sacar muchísimos votos, y precisamente porque estos años el "gobierno más progresista desde el pleistoceno" no ha hecho NADA por pararlos, y ahora su maquinaria de propaganda está incrustadísima en el tejido de la sociedad civil. Esto va a ir a peor antes de ponerse mejor.
@LostTransposon @jozsi si perrosanxe no se acobarda (cosa que no descarto) y convoca elecciones anticipadas aún nos quedan dos años antes de que pueda pasar eso. Dos años es un margen de tiempo suficiente como para que si hay voluntad política se pueda hacer algo, pero again, si hay voluntad, y yo del psoe me espero entre cero y nada, por no hablar de los socios de gobierno. Veremos qué pasa pero pintan bastos.
Pues espero que su mujer y Puente estén encima de él como la otra vez para hacerle resistir. Porque no quiero algo peor que el 2008, por mucho que pueda autoexiliarme un tiempo.
@jozsi no solo en las urnas. Con el rollo de la seguridad montan esos canales.
En mi pueblo natal ha crecido tanto el fascismo con el rollo de "para protegernos" que tienen un canal llamado "la patrulla". Y anda medio pueblo metido.
Van informando de gente sospechosa.
Me enteré en una comida y no daba crédito. Dicen que es "porque han crecido mucho los robos". Es falso, viven una irrealidad como comenta @Shine_McShine que no lleva a nada bueno para nadie.
@fanta @jozsi hoy me he levantado de la siesta y he visto que alguien (no sé quien) me había metido en un canal de telegram llamado "salvem Manresa". Era un canal de fascistas catalanistas (votantes de Sivia Orriols) y aquello era un hervidero de bulos, desinformación y xenofobia (y, qué cosas, sionismo). Me he enfadado mucho y he abandonado el grupo, pero me he quedado con un regusto horrible.
Y de nuevo: esto no es espontáneo, ni descentralizado, ni al azar. Hay grupos de personas coordinadas para esparcir esos bulos con una finalidad muy concreta.
Grupos que tienen material audiovisual a su disposición para lanzarlo en los canales adecuados y cosechar las tempestades de la indignación nazi.
Gente perfectamente consciente de que estas actuaciones que llevan a cabo pueden tener consecuencias horribles, y hablo de muertes, y aún así no van a dudar ni un segundo en hacerlo otra vez y las veces que hagan falta.
es una telaraña difícil de combatir porque hay mucha gente que ha decidido creerse conscientemente las mentiras que se difunden en esos basureros. No les importa en absoluto la verdad, ya tienen la suya y buscan legitimar su racismo cómo sea.
Y ya no hablo precisamente de los nazis que van a apalear inmigrantes, hablo de la gente que mantiene cierta connivencia o directamente disculpan su violencia.
el capitalismo tiene los mismos problemas que ha tenido siempre y otra vez, como los mismos problemas de hace siglos, la pobreza, el desempleo, la enorme desigualdad y más es siempre más fácil buscar un chivo expiatorio, que ponerse a dar una clase de historia, antropología o sociología la gente piensa es culpa de fulanito, porque el sistema es intocable y listo cuando reducis la compleja realidad social a un nosotros contra ellos, el fascismo avanza
y como siempre, muestra las limitaciones de los políticos, incluso de aquellos que dicen ser de izquierdas, que están encorsetados en la lógica del capital

You can't really understand the MAGA base's sense of betrayal on the Epstein Files without understanding "QAnon" and the long-held belief that Trump is secretly at war against a cabal of Democrat child abusers, writes CNN’s Brian Stelter. cnn.com/2025/07/14/media/trump…
One of the problems with vibe coding is that the hardest part of software engineering is not writing the code, rather it's *choosing* what to code, and designing the system (and, later on, maintaining the code/operations/etc)
The barriers and investment cost to writing code is itself a *desirable* aspect of software engineering because it forces you to make careful, good choices before you invest in building something
Because the majority of the time spent writing, say, curl, is not writing the original tool but rather maintaining it over time, it's important to make good choices from the beginning, and at every major version change
Early in my career, I built a system for a customer that made it easier for their university to automate sending invitations and login instructions for new users.
I missed some key differences in some user environments that weren't covered in my testing, and I ended up sending thousands of malformed login invitations... twice.
If I'd been forced to write separate login invitations manually for each segment of the user population, I would also have been forced to do more fine grained testing and take more care to ensure it works and think through the details.
But as a starryeyed new engineer, I was too excited by the idea of automating the whole thing in one go. I made it too easy to distribute the impact of my mistake, and I wasted the time of thousands of users.
Back in the waterfall days we reckoned about 40% design, 10% coding, 50% testing. Which did on occasion result in nervous clients who observed that we were a third of the way through the timescale and hadn't written any code yet ... but we did usually deliver to spec on time and on budget.
not too long ago, elsewhere, I read a post by someone who had vibe coded an app of 60k lines of code, and was looking for a professional developer to "fix the last bugs [they] couldn't fix with genAI". They had a couple hundred bucks to put on the table. I'd be surprised if their app could not be made with less than 10k locs...
I think it's an immature attitude borne out of people resigned to working within languages and frameworks that force a lot of 'boilerplate' on them, who haven't had a chance to develop the understanding that there are better approaches (more expressive *durable* abstractions, etc)
Proponents of the tool seem to extrapolate from the relative increase in ability of these tools in the past 6 months (mostly due to more cleverly wiring them up to the ability to use external tools and edit files) that in another 6 months they'll solve significant issues of design ... and I'm not seeing evidence of it
