    In Sachen Social Media bin ich jetzt nur noch im Fediverse aktiv.

      nlconnect.org/files/pages/2025
      (Looks like the same nonsensical "we need to protect someone from something, so limit digital freedom of everyone" mindset, as with the age verification crap...)
      (Yeah, just prevent regular users too from accessing the site who aren't even interested in that political crap. Good job, morons... What you'll do next? Block all decentralized platforms, because "freedom is dangerous to people", or what?)
      (I usually avoid including political things in these weekly news posts, but I thought it must be included, because it can potentially affect everyone in the EU. I'm not affected yet, because so far Vodafone seems to be the only one blocking the site, I use a different ISP, but since it's a law, other ISPs will probably be forced to comply too (unless it will be handled as GDPR that they don't actually care who complies). VPN will probably be a solution to get around the ban, hopefully they won't ban that too, like the UK wants...)

            I've created two new GRASS addons to facilitate the exchange of raster styles between QGIS and GRASS: r.colors.qml and `r.colors.toqml`.

            🎨 r.colors.qml: Apply QGIS QML style files directly to your GRASS rasters.
            🔄 r.colors.toqml: Export GRASS color tables and categories back to QML for use in QGIS.

                Yay, ist installiert. Ich bin jetzt seit zwei Stunden dabei und schon begeistert. Bis jetzt habe ich erst mal alle apps installiert und zwei, drei aus dem Aurora Store ohne Die Verbindung zur Nextcloud klappt wunderbar. Ich vermisse jedoch jetzt schon das Entsperren per Gesicht, aber man kann nicht alles haben :D Was mich aber irritiert, ist, dass nicht alle Menüpunkte komplett auf Deutsch übersetzt sind.w

                    I've been thinking that it's better to give money to rather than , once the former puts way more money into than the latter.

                    Anyone thinks differently?

                      Running Mastodon on FreeBSD? Stop using wrapper scripts that break service status.

                      I've refactored the init scripts for Sidekiq, Puma, and Streaming to be fully production-grade:

                      - Clean privilege dropping (no su wrappers)
                      - Native signal handling for log rotation
                      - Correct PID tracking & status reporting.

                      I published the scripts and the reasoning behind them in my Codeberg gists:

                      codeberg.org/Larvitz/gists/src

                      I use those to run a Mastodon instance and they're working great so far!
