Fediverse

I have a new app coming out next week.: https://blog.terrygodier.com/2026/07/30/i-have-a-new-app.html

River Bank have filed an 8-K with the SEC to say they’ve paid a threat actor to help cover up up their incident. https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1641601/000119312526325324/ck0001641601-20260619.htm

@neil I was on Jury Duty in April. Week 1 - Day 1: On a panel, not chosen. Day 2-4 Sat in waiting room playing Monkey Island. Friday, asked not to go in. Week 2 - Day 1: Sat in waiting room again. WK2 - D2: On a panel, not chosen. Email that night, I am released. So for jury duty I finished Monkey Island and read Project Hail Mary.

I cancelled my yearly donation of €60 to #Makertube ... and switched to the Community Plan, €5 /month, 100 GB Storage as @MakerTube is now moving to a subscription based model :)

I guess I will have to make new videos and upload them so I can continue to embarrass myself in front of the Fediverse ;)

@emc I have, and I did prototype one for a few months, but in the end, I don't have an interesting enough take on podcasts to make something work.

Ukraine’s courage is unshakeable. So is our support.

We have disbursed a further €3.47 billion to Ukraine to meet its urgent defence needs.

This funding, under the defence window of the €90 billion Ukraine Support Loan, will help delivers vital equipment to protect Ukrainian airspace:

🔹 Jet-powered long-range drones
🔹 Air defence systems and missiles
🔹 Gripen fighter jets

By ensuring Ukraine can defend its people, we are securing Europe's future.

In America, you're allowed air condition. You don't even need a note from your doctor 😂

@emc correct!

Yes, "the situation is developing". I'm sure those are words of comfort to the Spaniards currently hosting the "invaders" (again, your word).

"LinkedIn, a social network awash with long AI-generated posts from executives and other corporate workers, has introduced a new button that users can click to flag if a post “seems like AI slop,” according to [@404mediaco's] own tests."

@stml
Huh, now that's got me thinking about practical alternatives. I bet you could make something work with a bungee system and an oversized panel that would work. You'd have to design it in from scratch, though, because zippers make door panels a part of the structure of the tent under wind loads that this wouldn't.

@SeattleSanchez improving the public transport options is a work in progress. Including more PT modes and adding better route planning based on PT schedules: https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps/projects/36008

@LukaszHorodecki tuba being one of the few *android* clients that support quotes and collections...

@artkavanagh Probably so. So many things could change, it’s hard to predict.

Had fun last night hacking on a new gadget project with my son. Still a long way to go… Hoping to take apart this iPod and 3D print new guts for it. It might not work! Next step is soldering the microphone to test.
