@bortzmeyer is reporting in https://www.bortzmeyer.org/menaces-de-cloud-innovation.html that Cloud Innovation, the Chinese company that has paralyzed #AFRINIC with legal actions, is threatening people who share links to this article: https://medium.com/@emmanuelvitus/afrinic-hope-hijack-and-the-harsh-lessons-of-african-multistakeholderism-8e8378797101 .

I expect that the Streisand effect will manifest...

Donald Trump is visiting a couple of his golf course in Scotland in a 'semi-private' visit later this summer....

This will be in addition to any second state visit that is organised.

My guess is many people in Scotland might want to voice their (shall we say) displeasure at him rocking up in Scotland.....

And yes, you can expect the security costs to be astronomical!

@raymierussell Mine's a pull-behind variant, seems to have better suction than the previous one with bags had.
@cstross @johnefrancis We've had 23° in the morning, and it was so nice and cool :)

@raymierussell @vkc I've got both a Roomba S9+ and a bagless vacuum. Roomba runs daily while I'm at work, and I use the bagless vacuum for stairwell and two rooms that Roomba can't reach due to the step.

Every now and then Roomba does get caught on the frills one of the carpets has, but it's rare enough to not matter, and it cleans well enough for me (when my grandmother passed away, I put one of her carpets in my livingroom, and I thought I'd have to order a carpet cleaning service, since it was quite dusty and grey; but every day after Roomba made a pass, it was becoming visibly ligher, and after about 10 days it looked completely different, with very lively colours).

Hello fellow hackers!!!

I want to give away the Flock Safety camera and battery pack I tore down a few weeks ago. The Serial header has been soldered to and the back 7 pin connection has been cut to trace voltages and I2C busses.

Otherwise the android OS is factory-ish minus the install of magisk root to access the filesystem. I did not overwrite the boot loader, but can give you the root enabled boot loader to call from fastboot.

I want to pass on the camera to someone who can continue to dissect the OS and the APPS publicly. I don't want the camera to go to a CVE hunter.

Thoughts?

@munin unfortunately, i fear that they will only be removed from their positions after they succeed at bringing disaster

So. I've been on field manual labor crews where most of my coworkers were convicts.

I've also worked with a lot of tech companies on automating farms.

And this press conference is incredible. Rollins hasn't the foggiest clue what she's on about.

Petition: Legally enshrine the right of adults to physically transition using NHS services

Introduce a law to legally protect the right of those aged 18 and over to transition using NHS services. This should specifically cover physical transition, including hormone treatment and surgery, as otherwise I believe it could potentially be interpreted as including conversion therapy.

There is a new setting for server operators in #Mastodon 4.4, under Administration -> Server Settings -> Discovery, called "Allow external sites to see your Mastodon server as a traffic source". If you're running a server for a larger group of people there is no privacy downside to enabling this, and it will help make the fediverse more visible as a traffic source to the rest of the web.

Love this new sign on the Clyde Walkway, but it definitely falls into the Keep Glasgow Weird category. It's one of a number of signs inspired by Science Fiction movies around the city's Science Centre created by A Sign of Humour.

@thisismyglasgow I love that. Though I would mind the noise of Godzilla after 10 pm a lot.
Good timing. Lucky us!

@thisismyglasgow

And I thought "Godzillas" exists only in Japan.

Und ich dachte, "Godzillas" gibt es nur in Japan.

@thisismyglasgow on reflection, the most subversive thing about this is the idea that there might be more than one godzilla.
@fishidwardrobe @thisismyglasgow
"Godzilla" probably isn't the right word - its all explained by John Scalzi in "The Kaiju Preservation Society"
@thisismyglasgow so you have to get up early or stay up late to see Godzillas, as we know they sleep in on sundays.
@thisismyglasgow That sign can't stop Godzilla, because he can't read.
@thisismyglasgow I've spotted this on the newest Astonishing Glasgow video:
