@sabik @hacks4pancakes It's hard to just when we already can't even.
"Nejdůležitější" novela zákona tohoto volebního období je tu.
Vládní koalice prosadila na program aktuální schůze Sněmovny novelu zákona o střetu zájmů. Úprava má radikálně uvolnit pravidla pro čerpání dotací a účast firem členů vlády ve veřejných zakázkách.

Monday again tomorrow fam
Decided to extract my original Star Wars card collection from its shoebox and put them in a binder. Unfortunately my best friend and I fought over cards as kids so our parents made us mark every card with a sharpie. So now I'm on a quest to re-source most of the cards. LMK if you know a good source.
@aaronsgiles@corteximplant.com What star wars card collection? Decipher?
@Floppy Joel Bakan?
@pauljrobinson that’s the one!

You’re still presenting it in a very dishonest and bad faith way imho.
I also don’t agree to a lot of the decisions of the main instance, the classification of meme communities as “low-quality”, blanket classifying 4chan screenshots as alt-right, or the vote limits. So it’s a good thing none of that is enforced in the source code, and that in the places where it previously might not have been an option Rimu has actually listened to feedback and made sure it’s configurable (and IIRC all except the defederation/domain blocks is disabled by default)
I have been nothing but factual in my claims of what the software does/did.
Fact is Rimu continuously does these things and only reverts course or makes it opt-in after the backlash. He doesn’t listen to feedback so much as he does damage control.
The very public thread with PugJesus shows what he is like. Even Snoopy one of the most vocal supporters of him has stepped down recently, which is telling in its own right. The project is suffering because of his personality and refusal to listen until it’s too late.
@flyingpenguin I think the article quite clearly explains the reasons that these fridges are online:
"Logistics companies are often required to demonstrate that food has stayed within a narrow temperature range while in their custody; the ability for a freezer to broadcast an alert if its temperature deviates from a set point at 2 a.m. is an extremely useful feature. Refrigeration units are always on—they have to run 24/7 by design—and a lot of today’s smartest devices provide the diagnostics that allow companies to perform predictive maintenance to preempt any potential issues. “The risk of loss is so high if the unit goes down,” Chris Gaffney, a supply-chain expert at Georgia Tech who previously ran logistics for Coca-Cola, told me.
The food that our fridges are protecting is extremely fragile; the machines themselves are quite complex; and qualified technicians are in short supply. A refrigerated warehouse, let alone a supermarket, won’t have a person with that kind of specialist skill set on-site, Gaffney said. But when connected to the internet, a scattered portfolio of freezers can be managed and sometimes even fixed remotely. And, as politicians push legislation to make food traceable, the entire supply chain is being digitized. “There are a lot of positives that come with that—ways to increase our food security and understanding where food is coming from,” Sara Stickler, the president of the Global Cold Chain Alliance, an industry trade group, told me. “But with digitization, there also comes risks.”
@flyingpenguin The headline is misleading for sure, because the article doesn't actually make the argument it implies.
@neil It often does. Along with food and a shower and fresh clothes.
@missnfranchised Very wise words!
A glass of water and a good sleep worked wonders.
Happy Monday - here we go again!

@Floppy oh I haven’t. But that sounds very much my wavelength. Who is the author?
@Floppy Joel Bakan?
This is an eloquent illustration of how the social contract is now broken in both civic and corporate life.
The only thing that matters is near term personal gain, the future is someone else’s problem.
@carnage4life The rational counterpart to refusing to invest in future generations is why should future generations pay debts passed on from past generations who lived it up on deficit spending?
the fediverse is a great way to see the genitals of various free software maintainers
including me if you're cool
@BestGirlGrace or in some cases the lack of genitals
I have nothing against the Amish, but let us acknowledge The Atlantic has lost its mind.
The bad idea was letting fridge vendors sell connections without basic connection safety.
You dont expect an article "maybe connecting pipes with water was a bad idea" after lead is discovered. Get the lead out, you nitwits.

@pauljrobinson did you ever read “The Corporation”? Good book that explores the same idea, particularly that corporations are obligate sociopaths.

can we shout out to the fediverse developers, for making the fediverse possible
shout out to the lemmy developers for not making us be stuck on the other site
shout out to mastodon devs for making us have a better life than on Twitter
shout out to the pixelfed devs for allowing a actual photography platform to exist
shout out to the peertube devs for helping us not be stuck on youtube until the end of time
ETA: Shout out to the server operators who make the stuff be done
@jwildeboer first of all, great article, enjoyed reading this. Regarding the opendkim `KeyTable` part of the setup, i have a small question: did you mean *signing* instead of *verifying* there? As verification should happen on the receiving side using sender's public key
@benediktas You are right! I fixed it just now. Thank you for the hint :)
I have seen some early sketches by @JenJen for this year's decoded.legal holiday card, and it looks *amazing*.
(And, no, it is not one of *those* JenJen drawings. Naughty.)
