Ah yes, the modern problem that has no name

Many people affected by the recent blocking of #Telegram in 🇪🇸 Spain are looking for alternatives - especially decentralized ones.

#Snikket is one of those alternatives, and fully open-source. However, our Spanish translations are lacking, which can lead to a poor experience for our #hispanohablante friends.

If you think you could help us with translation, please reach out 🙂

After a good 9-month gestation with Pedro Duarte, a birth assisted by the more benevolent and skilled team I could think of. Many thanks to CIRED researchers

I’ll let you in on a secret: I love sporadically updated weblogs. I subscribe to over 1200 feeds and most of them are sporadic or even technically “inactive”. Months often pass between updates

It means that every post published was important to the writer

Back in the days of snail mail, letters that began with “It’s been a while since I last wrote to you” were the ones people cherished the most

You don’t need to post every day or even every week to have a blog that matters

Biking will never be a transportation solution for everyone all the time. But what e-bikes (and especially e-cargo bikes) do is expand the range of bikeable situations, giving more people more options for an incredibly fun way to get around!

Seems needlessly cruel to award just one Oscar to Wes Anderson, rather than two placed very precisely on either side of him.

"It's not easy being an anti-DRM activist, especially heading into 2024. Not content with locking down software and streaming media, the massive corporations peddling this unjust technology have even extended their reach into the world's libraries. OverDrive is the worst of these offenders..." Read the full article about IDAD 2023: https://u.fsf.org/421 #LearnLibre #EndDRM #Libraries #ebooks #DayAgainstDRM

A late dinner—prepared on time but neglected in favor of a computer game—led my son to be victimized by the remark “Those who forget the pasta are condemned to reheat it”.

Honestly I’m surprised he hasn’t simply smothered me in my sleep by now.

I live in a suburban area in the USA. I don’t have a lot of space. I’m thinking of buying a foldable bike for both recreation & maybe even biking the mile or two to work occasionally.
What is the best deal for weight, size, durability, & price?

Sad to hear they're discontinuing work on the Apple car

Apple's trying to scuttle PWAs out of pique, blame regulators for their tantrum, and gaslight users, businesses, and developers about who is breaking their apps and why.

It's bullshit, and @owa is fighting back. Join them by signing the open letter:
