@nixCraft wow, the Sovereign Tech Fund is awesome! Germany leads the way, other countries should follow.

Turns out that my Librerapay account was misconfigured for a while and couldn't accept any payments. I've fixed that now, so if you ever tried to support my FLOSS work through there and bounced off, I guess now is a good time to try again 😅

It would be very interesting to hear from some #monero folks what they think about parallel chains (connected via "tickets" as outlined in my paper or some other way) as a way to increase transaction rates to handle Visa/Mastecard level of transaction volumes, ping @Monerotopia @MoneroTalk @hyc @vinibarbosa
I just wrote this paper:
"Ticket-based multi-strand method for increased efficiency in proof-of-work based blockchains": https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.09531
What do you think?
@hehemrin toppen, tack!
@hehemrin om du är där och kan skriva till henne, hälsa gärna Annie Lööf från mig att hon borde publicera det hon har att säga på en riktig webbsida/blogg eller annan öppen plattform istället för på Fb.
@DefendDemocracy is that available somewhere other than youtube (Google)?
@clacke I see what you mean, but I was not here a decade ago. For me, to find myself a decade ago I would need to go into platforms that shall not be named and where I now refuse to go. It's like I kind of lost touch with my historic self. "Oh him, he's so weird, we don't talk anymore" 🙂
@Karinkvittrar mm kanske till och med segla iväg mot horisonten, som Hattifnattarna? 🙂
@lilithsaintcrow I agree, it's terrible.
For me, when a text or an image is shown to me, if I read it or look at it then I do that because I believe it's a communication from another human being. If I believe it's made by a machine then I'm not interested in reading it or looking at it, I'm, just disgusted and offended that someone would push that crap at me, it's a waste of my time at best.. It's all fraud, trying to fake human communication. I think what's happening is really dangerous.
@BengtBivrin jag hoppas att fler väljare börjar komma ihåg varför "sjuklövern" funnits från början: därför att man samarbetar inte med nazister.
@landetannien snyggt!
> bagatellisering av nazism.
> Från ett riksdagsparti
Från ett parti som självt har rötter i nazism.
@stofferoo @marcusosterberg hoppas inte för mycket nu, tänk på att Uffe hittills varit mycket konsekvent med att aldrig någonsin visa tecken på att ha någon ryggrad. Det verkar vara som någon sorts gelé där ryggraden skulle ha suttit.
@dos thanks, that's indeed much better!
How did you do this? Could you show the commands and options to use?
@dos here are the original files, jpg and dng: https://eliasrudberg.se/tmp-photos/
I should say then that the file I posted here earlier was a smaller one, I had taken the jpg from the L5 and opened it with the gimp program and exported with lower quality, to reduce the file size before posting it here. The zombies.jpg file is the original one from the L5. I also threw in a "birds.jpg" and .dng if you want to play with that one also, it would be nice to get higher resolution jpg for that one if possible.
"Mobile-zombie-free zone" sign spotted at a playground in #Rålambshovsparken in #Stockholm recently.
Ironically that made me pick up my own phone to take this photo, acting like another of those infamous zombies. In my defense I did not actually enter the playground, so strictly speaking I did not violate the sanctity of the mobile-zombie-free zone. Also, the phone (#Librem5 yay!) was back in pocket directly without further zombie-like behaviour. 🙂 #ShotOnLibrem5
