Hi! Great post, good research with sources, great initiative, thank you. 🙏

So, OK, I’m willing to learn: please show me good brands then.

They need to resist to mud (thick mud, the kind with a ton of suction that will keep your soles when you try and move), seawater, rocks and sand, and pretty dense vegetation.

They also need to have steel toe caps, good soles (vibram or equivalent if possible) that don’t slip, and that aren’t too hard (wet stone is enough of a female dog as it is), and to go higher than my ankle.

The best brand I tried so far was caterpillar, but they lasted only 3 years. That’s a far cry from “a decade or more”.

Exactly. Nah, we just gotta have man made monoculture everywhere, or a desert, right? So that, in the end, it just amounts to deserts anyway. Yay. 😶

That, plus all the obvious propaganda, dogmatic echo chambers, and people who misspell stuff voluntarily, or make extremely basic mistakes (“your wrong”, “its that”, “there logic”, etc) more than once.

Yeah so, the amount of meals is correct. But that’s about it. I mean, I can’t say about the taste, to each their own, but one kg of cow meat needs two dozen kg of grain.

That’s about as inefficient as it gets.

As for the leather, the industry doesn’t like products that last a decade, so it isn’t actually using the leather in such a way. Industrial leather boots last a year tops.

Finally, pet food is made out of discarded cuts of meat, the uglies, etc. But also lots of cereals, and vegetables.

So we could really afford eating less meat. It isn’t good for anything. Not for us, not for the other species (certainly not for the cows, that get often half assed butchered in a hasty way because of quotas and profit), and absolutely not for the ecosystem.

But I guess the taste is all that matters.

I saw the image first. But as I checked the username, I already knew it was you.

Quality meme, as always. 👌

Finally, a Scottish layout.

Also, could you please update the title of your fediverse post? The article now says 21k 🙂

So I was right. It is about the controller…

So, the reason why the URL doesn’t work is that the DNS record is deleted, and the httpd is no longer configured to serve this content (so the requests fail even if you spoof the DNS, especially since they use HSTS, with which most browsers won’t let users add a certificate exception).

This is because bibliogram is unmaintained (since end of 2022), and it is also unusable (blocked by meta) so even the instances that still have it can’t work.

There is another software that is meant as a frontend for Instagram (proxigram) but even if it isn’t discontinued, none of the instances I could find work (they all return '403 - blocked" at best).

The only info I could get from Instagram on this account was by using pixvox (another Instagram frontend, but this one is closed source, and seemingly rather dubious), and according to the information, the account is “on indefinite hiatus”.

However, I could also find a post on reddit, by u/king_ink777 where they posted the following image:

According to the image, you can reach the people behind that magazine at “exhale the ash magazine” (without the spaces) on gmail.

I mean, if the Europeans knew just how much of our taxes are sent straight to Microsoft by administrations, they would see tax hikes differently…

Usually people use Hugo.

But I would be very interested in a less contrived alternative.

Thanks for doing this.

It turns out that “Women Who Code Closing - Women Who Code” actually isn’t about Women that code a software called “Closing”, and Women that code in general.

In fact, what they meant to write was:

The End of an Era: “Women Who Code” Closing – Women Who Code.

I know I’m gonna get downvoted for this, but punctuation matters, and sadly, it has to be said. So here I go.

This is the way. And I might add, Unix desktop. Let’s not start bikeshedding between FOSS Unix distributions out of dogmatic reasons (I’m sure you didn’t mean to specifically single out “Linux” here, but I wish we would stop opposing “Linux” and other Unixes like BSD, Illumos, etc).

The point is, voting with your data for software that is defending your interests, and respecting your rights.

Edit: Dang, I didn’t expect to get so much slack for “Unix as opposed to Unix-Like”. I absolutely meant “Unix-Like”, but my point is that it shouldn’t matter. Most software is trying to be compatible, these days, and Linux isn’t (in spite of all that marketing material) an OS. It is a kernel. So semantics for semantics, can it even be compared to something it is not? I merely tried to be inclusive.

With a 52% percent mortality rate, this might well be the last such opportunity. One way or another. 😬

Her lawyers

That’s assuming she can hire any. Her case is far from clear cut, I’m not convinced anyone would take her case for a proportion of a potential settlement.

She probably has no recourse.

But use the widows version and the proton layer. The Linux version is horribly coded.

I personally don’t think we’re getting anything. I always saw the “it takes time” point as a way to duck the issue until the community would forget about it entirely.

So, all in all, if you really want to get some answers, maybe wait enough time to give LMG more than enough time to investigate; so much so that using the “this wasn’t a reasonable amount of time” defence strategy would be impossible, and then try to get the community to care again. And ask for answers. I personally do not see this happening, ever, but I hope I’m wrong.

Old 💀

Shit, this hurts.
