I believe you also have noticed that rubberized tools can get very sticky if not used for a while. Recent exemples from my life is a computer mouse and radio nobs, not used for a couple of years. Any trick to get rid of it? When it is in daily usage this does not happen, is it because I rob it off with my hand and fingers all the time?
ActivityPub Starter Kits update:
I'm making exceptional progress and am wrapping up a few things before I prepare to launch this exciting new service!
ICYMI: I'm building an open source/self-hostable Starter Kit service that will allow fediverse users to safely build kits and share/use them with ease.
An excellent layperson's breakdown of how Bluesky works, beneath the hood ...
... specifically, what's decentralized about it (content storage, for now) and what, for now, isn't (the part that queries for updates in user's posts, and then assembles it into a feed)

Nu är jag bara en tidningsläsare och inte en tidningsmakare, men jag tycker artikelrubriken som kom för en halvtimme sedan är för dyster. Eller vad tycker du?

DigiKam 8.5.0 is released! Professional Photo Management with the Power of Open Source.
Available for Windows, macOS and Linux. For Linux, I recommend to use the AppImage from the team, see their download page.
I use digiKam as my photo catalog manager and for other photo tasks. I also use some other photo tools, but digiKam is the center for my digital photo management.

I samband med att jag gick mänskliga rättighetskursen Integritet, teknik och övervakning såg jag den tyska filmen De andras liv.
Filmen utspelar sig i DDR (Östtyskland) 1984 och handlar om övervakningssamhället genom Stasi.
En jobbig film som jag tycker är mycket bra. Den finns på SVT Play nu.

Jag tänker på när Botkyrkabyggen hade bioreklam om att hyra hos dem. Och i tidsperioeden då de kunde plugga igen en trea till en tvåa, jag tror det gällde Albydelen av beståndet, som man sedan kunde öppna om man ville ha större. En tid när det var så många tomma lägenheter hos Botkyrkabyggen. Jag tror det var något efter jag började hyra hos Botkyrkabyggen dvs mitten av 80-talet, en opluggad två. Apropå Norra B, så är det nu 30 år sedan Välkommen till förorten kom ut, förtäljde Kulturnyheterna.
Big News
Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) has just launched its own dedicated Mastodon server, social.freedom.press: https://freedom.press/about/announcements/our-new-home-on-the-fediverse/
Now all FPF-related activity on Mastodon is now accessible from a single Fediverse server: @securedrop @dangerzone @foiafeed
Hopefully this move will be an example to other organizations. "The Fediverse is nonalgorithmic and community-driven, without the potential algorithmic distortions or content suppression imposed by centralized platforms."

Now I was close to use Google translate again, but I stopped myself in time to instead open my paper book dictionary to look up the translation. #books #offline #dictionary
Without notice or explanation, Apple reportedly pulls Russians' access to podcasts by independent journalists at The Insider, Echo of Moscow, and BBC Russian. Not a good look, fruit company. https://zona.media/news/2024/11/14/nopodcast
