Great news everyone! I'm still alive and have dropped a post on my plans to violently knife as many software recruiters as possible, and also talk about how all the managers that seemed incompetent were, in fact, totally incompetent:

The DOJ and CFTC are going after a US soldier who allegedly used his access to confidential military information to profit more than $400,000 on Polymarket bets. They are not going after Polymarket, which is supposed to prohibit US bettors, and whose advisory board includes Donald Trump Jr.

“The whole world, unfortunately, has become somewhat of a casino,” said former casino tycoon and current President Trump.

“I don’t like it,” said the man whose own social media platform has announced plans to launch a crypto-based prediction market feature.

I don't know if this is really a thing on the Fediverse or not, but do people trade old books on here? Is there a book swap? Or even a digital little free library where all you pay is shipping?

I'm looking for some Kahlil Gibran books, particularly "Sand & Foam" and "The Madman." If you've got any old still-readable copies you don't need, please get in touch!

I will be voting in November, but I won’t be donating to campaigns I don’t believe in. I won’t be signing petitions I don’t really support. I won’t be filling out surveys. If people want my support, they will support working people.

what are some good translation apps/services that are either open or european?

I know DeepL, but looking for an alternative what with their AI layoffs and shitty app patterns

I just refreshed the #WSocial website and it's showing a MAJOR redesign... with a label at the top stating "built on the open AT-protocol."

This is the first time ever they acknowledge this – I know, as I've been visiting their website for MONTHS and also never heard about this in any interviews. So the claims in my exposé stand (the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine would confirm this).

Of note: they changed their URL from wsocial.eu to wsocial.news

BTW thanks for all your feedback ❤️

It has been in the works for months, but the recent increase of downtime has accelerated work. We've moved from Caddy to HAProxy for codeberg.org traffic.

Starting over with a new reverse proxy has enabled us to make choices that enable us to set up HAProxy to scale with our increasing traffic. For example, traffic is split (when possible, decided via heuristics) over several instances to balance load balancing.

We hope to share more details at a later time about this change.

We are able to follow up last year's success of financing important audio improvements in postmarketOS and the wider Linux Mobile ecosystem with another project this year, this time tackling q6voice(d).

Thanks to everybody who has been donating to postmarketOS, you made this possible!

This is the worst possible time for presidential records to be hidden from the public.

Use our action center to tell Congress: Presidential records are vital parts of the American story, and the Justice Department’s efforts to say otherwise are wrong.

I am worried that the Democrat Party leadership still doesn't understand that the reason they keep getting trounced is because nobody trusts them to improve material conditions of working people, and that they need to move farther to the left rather than placating the right.

Now that Trump has demonstrated that everything can be quickly and easily broken, I hope I'm not the only person wondering how we can leverage this new information to build a better world for everybody rather than simply rolling back to the prior version.
