Alright just got a stupid idea, here me out.

A digital guest book. QR code in the toilet to scan, if you are in the WiFi network a website opens up.

That website does list all entries done in the past as a readable list. Also you can click on a "+" icon to add one on your own. After entering a name and a message it's added to that list. The entry will save that together with the IP and date time to restrict entries to every 24h per IP-address.

GameStop's 'Trade Anything Day' has some employees bracing for the worst: 'We're probably going to have to reject some of the things because they're a biological hazard'

GameStop's latest promotion is a catastrophe in waiting, but some employees are encouraging customers to do something good with it instead.

Damn I like the whole css-or-bust approach to styling that #snac has. I mean I know many (most?) others do a bit of the same but this is just delightful.

So..TLS aside, what is the most lightweight reverse proxy I can use instead of nginx in front of this thing? You know, in case I would like to move the instance from this beefy PPro to, say, a #486 or a #Nintendo Wii running #NetBSD? :)

I have this crazy idea: every week, I'll showcase the most bizarre, awkward, ridiculous, or even dark Tor onion websites I come across. What do you think?

If I ever get round to having some sort of home assistant, I want to call it The Lone Ranger. Then when I need it to switch on the lights, or whatever, I can shout "Hi Ho Silver" followed by the command.

Also ich würde ja Gaskraftwerke auf Stirling-Motor-Basis empfehlen. Wenn schon Wasserstoff verbrennen dann doch so ineffizient wie möglich. #energiewende #stupididea

Energie - Bundesregierung einigt sich auf Kraftwerksstrategie

Die Bundesregierung hat sich auf eine Strategie zum Bau wasserstofffähiger Gaskraftwerke geeinigt. Wie das Wirtschaftsministerium mitteilte, beschlossen Bundeskanzler Scholz, Wirtschaftsminister Habeck und Finanzminister Lindner die wesentlichen Elemente einer Kraftwerksstrategie. Zunächst soll die Errichtung von bis zu zehn Gigawatt an Gas-Kraftwerksleistung ausgeschrieben werden.

This “break” is the most absurd thing I’ve heard lately. Diseases don’t EVER take a break. The main thing that a break in infectious disease research would accomplish is to decimate the pipeline of young scientists.
