Viele andere Länder haben ausschließlich Zebrastreifen für Fußgänger, welche die Straße überqueren wollen. Das heißt, in diesen Staaten wird dem Fußgänger grundsätzlich die der Vortritt/die "Vorfahrt" eingeräumt. Einfach, und der schwächste Verkehrsteilnehmer bekommt am meisten Schutz.
In Deutschland muss man zu Fuß und auf dem Rad ständig zwischen einer Vielzahl an sich ständig abwechselnden Infrastrukturen mit unterschiedlichsten Regeln, die meist keiner kennt, navigieren. Das ist physisch gefährlich, aber auch beim Versicherungsschutz nach einem Unfall problematisch.
...dem Schutzstreifen hingegen wird er nie eingehalten. Wer schonmal hingeschaut hat, wie ultrakomplex deutsche Kreuzungen signalisiert sind und wie einfach aufgeräumt das in anderen Ländern funktioniert, versteht das Problem, dass von Verwaltung bis Regierung uns alle plagt.
Kein Autofahrer und kein Radfahrer können zwischen Schutzstreifen, durchgezogener Linie, Farbflächen in rot, grün und blau sowie weiteren Kuriositäten unterscheiden. Absurderweise soll eine durchgezogene Linie am meisten schützen, aber genau da gilt der 1,5-Meter-Abstand nicht mehr. Auf...
@DerKlimablog.de 🏳️🌈 Kleiner Exkurs... Das Posten von Threads funktioniert im Fediverse einfach nicht wirklich. Die Reihenfolge der Beiträge, wie sie mir hier angezeigt werden: 1, 4, 3, 2 dazwischen schon Kommentare... sinnvoll zu lesen ist das nicht.
Sucht euch doch BITTE eine Instanz, die mehr Zeichen erlaubt und postet das in einem einzigen Beitrag. Wenn es Mastodon sein muss, es gibt auch Mastodon-Instanzen die DEUTLICH mehr als 500 Zeichen erlauben... ihr braucht das. Wirklich!
1/3 Maybe your childhood inspiration was a movie star or an athlete. Mine was #Tom_Lehrer (1928-2025). I tracked down & studied the sheet music to his songs, memorized all of them (including "The Elements"), and started writing & performing my own satiric ditties. Lehrer could have done standup with the best lines he used in between his songs. Probably the best-known of his nonmusical quips: Satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. But there were others..
2/3 ...including the purest expression of elitism I've ever heard: "The reason folks songs are so atrocious is that they were written by the people." Or his mention of a doctor he knows who specializes in diseases of the rich.
I met Lehrer in the '70s & asked him why he hadn't written any songs about Watergate. He said he didn't find it amusing. What I thought (but didn't say): "Huh. You got three numbers out of nuclear war, and that's not a topic most people find inherently hilarious."
3/3 Lehrer inspired me not just by the precision of his lyrics (equaled only by Sondheim's) and his ability to parody a range of musical styles but by living a life that proved you didn't need to focus on only one thing. He taught classes on combinatorial mathematics...and the history of musical comedy.
4/3 When he was 53, Lehrer told a questioner how old he was but added that he preferred to think of it as 11 Celsius.
Another time, he summed up his bicoastal life by observing that on the West Coast you find yourself hugging people you don't even like, whereas on the East Coast you don't hug people you do like.
15 years ago, solar power was nearly four times the cost of fossil fuel alternatives. Now, according to two new UN reports, renewable energy has passed a “positive tipping point,” and solar power is now 41% cheaper than fossil fuels. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said, “The fossil fuel age is flailing and failing.” The reports also shared a 74% growth in electricity generated globally from wind, solar, and other green sources — just in the last year.

I am not really an expert in file system, so I am not really sure what is the first step or is this recoverable. Which mean I will need a lot of help from you guys. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
Surprisingly nothing. I mean I did do update with pacman -Syu today, but I did reboot after that and my system work fine. After the I reboot the second time and now my fstab disappears.
I hate these Grub/boot errors. They are a pain to fix, not that it is hard, but I always have to read-up on how to do it properly. I am guessing you probably did an update maybe that caused this? Do you have a backup system to restore? That is the easiest fix. If not, next time get one in place. Here is a helpful 'how to fix' the issue.
Hi, I update today when I just wake up(it is my routine at this point). I am using Linux 6.15.8-zen1-1-zen. My kernel is the same pre/post because there isn't kernel update today.
As many here know, I am co-founder and lead of OpenPrinting since 2001, known as the print guru for Linux and free software by many. I also got one of the 8 fellows of the Linux Foundation for this.
Up to now I was working at Canonical, hired back in 2006 just to run OpenPrinting and also to maintain printing-related Ubuntu packages.
OpenPrinting is an essential piece of the free software system infrastructure and it needs to be kept in its good shape in which it is currently, many people appreciating my work and sometimes even telling that for them printing works better than under Windows or macOS.
Any help is appreciated, including just boosting this thread.
and more than 30 Canonicalers have connected with me on LinkedIn.
Now I want to continue doing OpenPrinting for a living, and need a way to do so. I am currently working with the Linux Foundation to make OpenPrinting an organiation which can receive sponsor funding. So now I am looking for sponsors.
Even greater would be, if independent of this somebody could hire me to continue OpenPrinting ...
With the time, Canonical has grown and created internal structures as a big-tech, especially how employees are evaluated. With my mostly external work I got a victim of it and they laid me off. All my colleagues do not really understand why I got fired, as they consider my work really important. Got ~30 "I am really sad that you have to go, you do not deserve it, you are doing great work" answers to my good-bye e-mail

Sorry to hear this @till ... you have been doing very valuable work for a long time, and I remain optimistic that we all will collectively be able to band together and make sure it continues to be supported. 🚀 🖨️
Thank you for your work. As someone that has built their own career, I know it's hard. But I hope you end up setting up your own business instead of being a worker beholden to suites that don't know what they have.
It's easier if you identify who your primary users are. For me, it's artists, but I suspect for you it's distro makers, and they should *all* be contributing back funding into your open print business. Even the free ones.
I know that you're looking for actual sponsorships but have you considered opening a liberapay? Just to get some donations in. I have a small five person company that I really like being able to print on Linux so wouldn't mind donating a bit but the sponsorship here is just don't make sense for a company like mine
At Europe OpenSourceSummit 2024 in Wien Till Kamppeter had a talk. It's a complete overview of the project with the history since 2001 until now, the archivements, problems, ongoing and future work, and the community around the printing. He does very important work for printing in Open Source (and other) environments.

Two people are dead and four are wounded after a gunman opened fire outside a Nevada casino, according to reports.
Gunfire broke out at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno around 7:25 a.m. Monday, with the carnage focused around the casino’s valet parking area, according to the Reno Gazette Journal.
The gunman was shot by police and detained, and is among the wounded – some of whom are reportedly in critical condition.
This is for anyone that orders #Coke at #McDonald's...
Did you know that McDonald's is required by #CocaCola to keep their syrup and fountain drink water <45F? (The CO2 is already quite cold.)
This is to minimize any "head" (or frothing) when the drinks are poured and to provide a positive guest experience.
You do not need to order "ice" in your soft drinks. The liquid in your drink is already quite cold the moment it comes out of the machine.
The only thing ordering ice does is increase McDonald's profits since less volume of drink will be dispensed and you will still be charged the same amount of money.
Source: One of my good friends back when I lived in Atlanta worked for Coca Cola in IT, but regularly worked with the group that managed their strategic partnerships.
Also, it cost McDonald's (back in 2015) $0.012 per "large" (32 oz) drink of fountain Coke. This included the product and the cup (which Coca Cola subsidized McDonald's costs to have them have the "Coca Cola" branding on them.
Of course that was back in 2015. I'm sure they cost a little more now. But we're still talking maybe what? $0.05? $0.10? At most? Including cup + product?
Remember this the next time you see the price for a large fountain drink of Coke at McDonald's.
@All_bonesJones uk government responded to the petition to repeal the "online child safety act" which is the bill they just passed to require everyone to use their ids to use a shit ton of sites
in the long run they will hurt themselves with this the most more anyways because everybody will use a vpn which is a lot harder to block than just porn. US and UK ISPs glow like christmas trees anyways.
If you want your petition to accomplish anything it needs to come with the implicit threat of violence being performed on persons in government if it is ignored.
This is a HUGE part of why the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution exists and must be defended at all costs.
If they don't think you can hurt them, they will not consider your proposal. Especially when they believe what they're doing is righteous. @All_bonesJones
@xianc78 I disagree, most governments will gladly throw you in prison for non-compliance with law, they need more slave labor anyway. All you've done is given them a watchlist.
If they believe they'll receive bodily harm for crossing the line then they will carefully consider how many people are backing a petition.
They shit themselves when patriots took a stroll through "their" building in 2020 because they know they've been fucking people for decades and thought it finally came to bite them. Once they realized those people were unarmed and not there to murder them they enacted vengeance on them for over 4 years. From my point of view it looked like a threat, "We'll disappear you into inhumane treatment and slander you while we do it if you dare rise up against your masters"
@Beefki Civil disobedience has been shown to work. For example, there was a UK poll tax back in 1989 that ended because enough people refused to pay it. A lot of people did end up in jail, but they couldn't arrest everyone so they had to end it by 1990.
Reform have pledged to repeal the Online Safety Act and polling says they'd win a majority if an election ran tomorrow. I have predicted since last year, and I hold this prediction, that the 2029 election will result in a Labour minority government. After that it will be anyone's game between Reform and the Liberal Democrats as to who can win the election that will follow shortly after. That's my overall prediction, and actually falls in line with roughly what Lord Ashcroft predicted some years ago with a new "Party A" and "Party B" forming to replace the old parties.
J'ai testé l'application Busuu pour apprendre le néerlandais, c'est vraiment pas mal! Ça ressemble un peu à Duolingo mais en mieux fichu et en moins infantilisant.
Et puis y a une vraie logique d'apprentissage. Je veux dire là là avec Duolingo j'en suis au niveau 10: je sais dire jupe, chemise, sac, et plein d'autres noms de vêtement que je connais même pas en anglais mais je sais toujours pas dire bonjour!
Dans Busuu on commence par apprendre à dire bonjour et à se présenter!
Et puis dans Busuu, y a des explications grammaticales (alors qu'avec Duolingo c'est débrouille toi)
Et autre point: en tant que francophone je peux corriger certains travaux d'apprenants en français. Et des néerlandophones peuvent corriger mon travail et mettre des commentaires directement en néerlandais
Alors ça fait un peu travailler les utilisateurs à la place de l'entreprise mais bon c'est quand même cool de pouvoir échanger avec des natifs

You can't get booted off here! And honestly with the Bluesky bridge there really isn't a need to have a Bluesky account. Followers on Bluesky can follow your fedi account and interact with you just fine!
fed.brid.gy/docs Basically you follow @bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy in the fediverse. That account will then follow you back. Accept its follow to make sure your fediverse posts get sent the bridge and make it into Bluesky.
It does take a while for everything to get set up though so once you follow the bsky bridgy app it's good to wait a while. You can always search for your bsky profile after a little while to see if it's been all set up.
Once everything has been set up you can interact with your bluesky followers as if they were right here on the fediverse.
But they need to follow your bluesky profile, and that doesn't get set up immediately (or automatically). You have to follow @bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy FIRST and then you have to wait for it to creat your bsky profile to bridge the two realms.
That's just it. You can do this right now. This has nothing to do with bluesky! This sets up a wormhole between your toot.community account and bluesky. It creates a wormhole on bluesky that links bluesky back to your toot.community account.
There is no 72 hour waiting.
There is no logging into Bluesky.
This makes your current fedi profile (@otownKim@toot.community) accessible to people on bluesky where they can interact with you as if you were local to bluesky and the bluesky users were local here on the fediverse.
Looks like you have 13 followers on your Bluesky profile. I bet if you look at your Mastodon profile you'll see 13 followers with ap.brid.gy addresses. 😉
Erstaunlich ist dabei, wie einfach sich der erste Patch für CVE-2025-49706 umgehen ließ, woraus effektiv CVE-2025-53771 entstand. Der Exploit basiert auf einem Post-Request, bei dem die Kaspersky-Forscher lediglich einen Schrägstrich in der URL ergänzen mussten, um Microsofts Patch auszuhebeln. Danach funktionierte bei den Tests der Forscher die gesamte Toolshell-Angriffskette wieder – inklusive der Ausnutzung von CVE-2025-49704.

Hey Brad, thanks for the heads up. Managed to crash Hetzner’s console while attempting to fix the issue so I’m locked out until they fix the issue on their end. Hopefully will have it up again tomorrow. I’m planning on fixing the core issue towards the end of the week after I’m done with the updates to Kitten’s renderer. The joys of eating your own dog food and all 😀
A bunch of Boeing workers just rejected a deal for 20% wage increases over 4 years and a $5,000 bonus. What a bunch of spoiled faggots. Someone needs to make a reality show where some of these out of touch morons have to bust ass for $20 an hour or less for like 6 months and make ends meet
Predictably, what is deemed ‘sensitive’ and therefore censored goes well beyond pornography and obviously illegal or adult material. Already UK users of X have been blocked from viewing footage of an anti-asylum protest, a tweet calling for single-sex spaces and a video of a speech in parliament on the grooming-gangs scandal. Historical trivia, such as a thread on Richard the Lionheart, and classic artworks like Goya’s Saturn Devouring His Son have been shielded by the tech censors. A thread on X of examples of what has been censored under the Online Safety Act, collated by Benjamin Jones of the Free Speech Union, has itself been partially censored due to the Online Safety Act. Open, political debate online is now a thing of the past.
The Online Safety Act also creates a whole host of new criminal offences. Most alarming is Section 179 – the ‘false communications offence’ – which makes it a crime to say something you know to be false that causes ‘non-trivial psychological harm’. Breaking this anti-misinformation law can lead to a prison sentence of up to 51 weeks.
I would say that convincing a child that s/he can change sex could cause “non-trivial psychological harm”.
Έβλεπα μία εκπομπή στην ΕΡΤ με θέμα την εισβολή των Γερμανών στην Ρωσία & πως τους υποδέχονταν οι Ουκρανοί. Έλεγε ότι οι Γερμανοί δε φοβούνται τους δυνατούς που εναντιώνονται αλλά τους αδύναμους. Τόσες οι ομοιότητες με τους ισραηλινούς όπως φέρονται στους Παλαιστινίους δεκαετίες τώρα. & ποιος θα το περίμενε ότι αυτοί που έζησαν το ολοκαύτωμα & υπέστησαν τόση φρίκη σήμερα θα εκτελούσαν ακριβώς το ολοκαύτωμα υποστηριζόμενοι από εκείνους που το διέπραξαν μάλιστα
