Surprise, surprise!

The economic damage wrought by climate change is six times worse than previously thought, with global heating set to shrink wealth at a rate consistent with the level of financial losses of a continuing permanent war, research has found.

Juggling With Eggs mastodon (AP)

The UK government is completely out of step with other European countries on Israel and Gaza.

France and Germany support the ICC in issuing an arrest warrant for Netanyahu.

Spain, Ireland and Norway will today announce they recognise Palestine as a state.

Meanwhile, Tory ministers seek to punish public bodies who don’t want to do business with a state that has killed 34,000+ people - mostly women and children.

Wanting to hold Netanyahu (and Hamas) accountable for war crimes is rational.

I would not characterise Germany’s position that way. Germany is, both as a government and the media, very much against any actions towards the Israeli government.

Be considerate about how much of yourself you feed into volunteering. Be aware when you are running out of energy, and allow yourself to stop or slow down before you realise you gave too much. You won’t get it back and if your last experience is painful, you may regret it all.

Be kind to yourself.

OK #Linux community, listen up.

MS have done it again and people are looking for a way out.

DON'T TREAT NEWBIES LIKE SHIT.

DON'T ATTACK PEOPLE FOR ASKING QUESTIONS.

DON'T ATTACK PEOPLE FOR HAVING PROBLEMS.

DON'T TELL PEOPLE TO "GOOGLE IT" WHEN THEY COULDN'T POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT TO SEARCH FOR, OR HOW TO INTERPRET THE RESULTS THEY'D FIND.

DON'T BE A DICK.

The fact that Microsoft's new Recall thing won't capture DRM content means the engineers do understand the risk of logging everything.
They just chose to preference the interests of corporates and money over people, deliberately.

So it appears this individual is taking credit for the inclusion of 'Recall' into Windows.

As I don't have an account on ..."X" I can't ask him the -very- pointed questions about why he chose to shepherd a project that creates an unsafe environment for domestic abuse victims into the OS that I want to.

But I would very much like to know why he found this to be acceptable and what his plans are for managing the harm that his project directly enables.

Robert Reich mastodon (AP)

When Trump openly and repeatedly exclaims that migrants are “poisoning the blood of our country,” or shares a video calling for a “unified Reich,” he is literally echoing the language of Hitler.

Trump is not a “populist.” He’s not a “strongman.” He is a fascist.

Use the word.

Ughhhhhh, am I being entirely stupid for thinking I could actually get something done in time for ConFuzzled this year? It's looking very much like it. :(

🙁 there's still, uh... one day...

Pippin friendica
@Durandal There are *so* *many* *things* I ought to be using this one remaining day for I could use it up a dozen times, I'm sure. (Don't worry, I'm sure I'll moan at you about a huge number of things over the next week! I'll try not to be too depressing… 😉)
Durandal mastodon (AP)

Oh I've got enough things to moan about myself too, yaay 😉

(I'll try to keep it at a minimum though, the whole point of Confuzzled is to live in a different universe for a bit)

I hope you manage to get some of them done at least.

1
Pippin friendica
@Durandal Thank you! I'm not sure how much I'll be able to avoid it - other than family I have pretty much no social contact outside of CFz these days, so I have a year's worth of infodumps and stuff to get out 😉

Pippin friendica

Okay, well it looks like I've actually managed to do at least *something*!

(If you can't see all 10 attached pictures, try opening it on the original instance.)

Without, in particular, a head, I'm unlikely to show this off in public at ConFuzzled, but I'll certainly bring it, so maybe in private? Hopefully after this burst of progress after literal years of having the zip half-sewn in, I'll make the time to do the head/tail/feet within the next few months and maybe bring it to a Londonfurs meet sometime. That would be good.

I think I have to admit defeat, I do not have the time to remake Jungle Fury Blue's neck. I will just have to live with it being slightly pink any time he appears at the con. A talking point, maybe? 🤷‍♂️

I've been getting too stressed and panicky about being ready by tomorrow, I need to *just* pack now, and not try to achieve anything else. Panic and stress are not desirable outcomes of going to ConFuzzled. Desirable outcomes are to see friends, hug anyone reading this who I don't know yet (please, if I haven't met you before and you're going, I'd like to meet you!), and wear stupid costumes! 😁

I am excited to hopefully see you and say hi and exchange hugs!

On 17 January 2024, the Czech government passed a resolution stating that on 6 June 2032 (20 years after the first IPv6 Day), it will end the provision of government services over IPv4. This talk will provide a brief overview of the topic (the official name of the resolution is "a restart the implementation of DNSSEC and IPv6 in public administration") and share some background information about the decision.

I'm starting to think that "too big to fail" is a synonym for "needs to fail", or at least "needs restructuring". Nothing and no-one should be too big to fail, there's always room to admit you were wrong and learn from it.

"too big to be held accountable" is more accurate

I went to the aquarium today and there was a guy in a wetsuit pushing a penguin around on a box, back and forth through the water

someone asked why and he says, "yeah, she kinda just really likes riding on the box"

I'm still not over it y'all

The knight struggled out of his armor then strode toward the dragon, "I need to be crushed immediately."

The dragon shifted his massive body, waiting for the knight to lay flat in his nest of furs and fabrics. Then he gently rolled some of his mass onto the knight's, worriedly asking, "Rough day?"

"Rough week," sighed the knight.

"It's Monday!"

There was no response, the knight had already dozed off under his favorite weighted-blanket.
