A friend of mine is starting her own music band "Eyes Awaiting", a metal duo that "tell stories about human emotions, day-to-day struggles, the mysteries, the deep traumas and the joys of life"

See details on
eyesawaiting.com/ including their very first music video! 🎉

Very happy for her, so want to share the news on the fediverse side.
Boosts appreciated, share the love and appreciate some nice music!

@win8linux This is really sad to see, opensource projects using proprietary platforms with awful ToS and privacy policies for communication really should not be a thing...

It is an unofficial channel at least, so the main Haiku devs still have some good sense. But whoever runs this Haiku mastodon account does not.

@unfa congrats! do you know if there is going to be a linux release?

@unfa this is an odd video format... is the guy just reading a blog post? correct me if I am wrong but that seems to be it..

@sampo ah very cool! maybe we should try an updated plugin version at some point too

This is an absolutely metal business decision made by OpenDNS (Cisco).

Court orders in France and Portugal are requiring the big open DNS resolvers (Google, OpenDNS, CloudFlare, etc.) to block resolution of a small list of domains for anyone in those countries.

OpenDNS seems to have decided to not implement the blocklist, and instead will just not answer any DNS queries from inside those countries.

Change implemented on a Friday evening, for maximum surprise.

A very cozy office 😅

It is mostly all unpacked and already usable now.
And yes, we need all 3 fans.

Doing an office + house move in the middle of warm humid weather is really something... 😓

Not sure if any energy remains for assembly now, who needs a kitchen anyway.

'He added that finding developers who know vanilla JavaScript and not just the frameworks was an “unexpected difficulty.”'

From an excellent piece by @ricmac on one company's transition from React to native DOM APIs and vanilla JS

@dvzrv around Lichtenberg station, 10m or so walking.
Reachable by U5, S5, S7 and S75, plus a few tram lines too.
So quite a good location.

After months looking finally getting a place for myself! 🎉

Exciting times ahead, but first a whole bunch of packing, moving, unpacking and assembly... in between a trip to Portugal and then Finland again.

It is going to be a while until life stabilizes again, but there is potential for great things.

@sampo I think I meant stuff like buildroot or yocto.

I use buildroot for work and like it, but yocto is more popular.

@dvzrv to be fair I had the same when using waf too and needed a "waf install -j 1" to fix.

but it shouldnt be a failure that the build system allows of course

Did you know that #XScreenSaver (yes, the collection of screensavers for X11) is available on Android?

And that #Google requires it to have a privacy policy in order to be available in the Play Store?

And that the maintainer chose to crowd-source a privacy policy where every item starts with "Unlike Google"?

It's become a great list of all the privacy violations Google did and still does. And I thought that it's gonna be long, but it's even longer than I imagined.

@sampo was indeed very nice! I order that special Finnish gin drink the next day :)

for the CM5 it is intentionally barebones, you are supposed to get the devkit first for validation, then do your own hardware/board.

these "compute modules" are meant to go in custom boards for being able to do custom IO.

radxa has other more generic all-in-one products too based on the same cpu.
