Bah, I was just getting ready to make a refillable carbon filter for my #BambuLab printer, and now I read that the carbon must be acid free or it can corrode the machine... Good thing I didn't use it, but I have a whole liter of this stuff now 🤦‍♀️

Anyone know a good source in the EU?

The French city of #Lyon will also be replacing Microsoft for #opensource solutions. Really curious what #Linux distro they will choose 👀

Also featured; #Jitsi for video conferencing, #Nextcloud paired with #OnlyOffice for document sharing and co-editing, #Zimbra for email, #Chamilo for online training, and #Matrix for instant messaging. 🔥

French City of Lyon Kicks Out Microsoft

Microsoft faces growing rejection in Europe whereas open source software sees growing adaption.

It's FOSS News

I have been informed that you can earn rewards points by using Bing as your search engine, and 1000 points takes at least a month

so anyways, all of my PCs are now running Linux Mint and life is good :)

that feel when you don't have enough Microsoft Rewards points™️ to enroll in the Windows 10 Consumer Extended Security Updates™️ (ESU) program 😔😔😔

this is a nintendo wii. this does not emulate a nintendo wii, this is the motherboard of a nintendo wii shaved down about as far as you can do it, removing some parts and repositioning others, until it's 60mm square

The #stopkillinggames EU initiative has passed 1million signatures! But Ross from Accursed Farms has mentioned that a fair number can be fraudulent or done incorrectly, so to be safe, they need more! If you are from the EU, please go sign it! I've also made a video expressing my thoughts and support for it.

I saw a YouTube video about a physical media cartridge player made by The Stock Pot. 🔥

After a few small adjustments, I made my own. 🤓

The cartridges contain NFC chips that trigger automations when inserted into the player.

Play Apple TV+ or Netflix shows, start Apple Music playlists, activate home automation scenes, you name it!

@serpentroots I just wish piracy wasn't so effective at killing record industry profits. I could really go for some new music right now.

@cbleslie @serpentroots These days it’s mostly Spotify that’s killing the music industry.

@schrotthaufen @cbleslie @serpentroots 100% correct. The consumers need to realize supporting Spotify for convenience, is conveniently killing off any new musician, band or producer. Soon they will be hearing Spotify playlists of AI created music by AI created bands, and I guess no one will care about that either.

@cbleslie @serpentroots Is this tongue-in-cheek? I can't tell...

Just in case, it needs to be said aloud anyway: piracy never even put the tiniest dent in their profit margins. And they just suck solely on their own merits with no one but themselves and their own practices and choices to blame. All they ever cared about was maximizing profits, so every single choice -- including what sort of music to make and how to make it -- has been made by calculating what would produce maximum profits.

Sorry, it just really had to be said just in case someone somewhere takes that seriously.

@nazokiyoubinbou @cbleslie during the 80s there was a campaign by the record labels with the slogan "Home taping is killing the record industry". This tape is from the punk label Alternative Tentacles and they're making a joke of how ridiculous it was.

@serpentroots @cbleslie Yeah, I got the meaning of the OP. I just was uncertain about that post I responded to.

They're probably just being silly and playing along, but it's hard to tell. For every bad thing like major labels there are always people who believe all the rhetoric and stick up for them despite the horrible things they do.

C.B.Leslie 12h ago

@nazokiyoubinbou @serpentroots yes. Same with how the war on drugs was so effective you can't get drugs anymore.

@cbleslie @serpentroots Ok, just had to be sure.

There legit are people who will defend these companies with absolute seriousness, believing every word of it.

C.B.Leslie 12h ago

@nazokiyoubinbou @serpentroots sorry. Didn't mean to gaslight your.

@cbleslie @serpentroots 👍

@cbleslie @serpentroots I hate to tell you this, but the record industry hasn't made "records" in years. The record labels that most confused with the music industry, are just big marketing agencies. They don't fund recording studios, or bands, etc. unless they are under contract to do so, and that rarely happens unless the artist already has 10 mil TikTok followers. It is a stupid system, and why you only here the rotation of the "oldies” now.

C.B.Leslie 12h ago

@mylesw @serpentroots yes. I was making a bad joke.

@serpentroots I love The Dead Kennedys 😁

@serpentroots I didn't notice the tape over the record hole at first. Nice touch.

@serpentroots i have that fine recording. One of these days I will think of what to put on that side.

Troubled Clef 16h ago

@serpentroots Easy fix. Stream everything, pay $0.003 per stream to the top 10% of the streamers and screw the rest. Then swindle them by creating fake AI bands with fake AI music, and push that out as the preferred playlist. Musicians? Who needs those pesky musicians. There's your solution. What could possibly go wrong?
