A Canadian goes to the world #QGIS User conferences in Sweden." I was pleased by the warmth and passion of the QGIS community." I note the number of European government agencies which are all into QGIS. https://gogeomatics.ca/advancing-open-source-gis-qgis-user-conference-2024-recap/

Firefox tab groups have genuinely improved the way I work with my browser, as someone who usually has ~100 tabs open across a dozen windows at any given point in time (about half related to history research)

You asked, we built it: Firefox tab groups are here  | The Mozilla Blog

What happens when 4,500 people ask for the same feature? At Firefox, we build it. Tab groups have long been the most requested idea on Mozilla Connect –

@arks_org @colby It's still a 404, and just as my interest was peaking with ark! This is a bad look.

There are many reasons to prefer #ARKs to #DOIs. But until now I hadn't seen a systematic case for them combined with good implementation detail. Recommended, esp to those unfamiliar with ARKs.

More on ARKs themselves.

@feliks Careful, or the media companies will start investing into giant rolling boulders and poison dart traps, and things will get real very quickly. :)

@feliks @quinn This, yes. IP protection should only apply to things that are legally available for purchase for reasonable price. Same goes for newly released stuff: staggered releases make no sense whatsoever in the age of digital delivery.

@feliks I consider this even worse. Media that is not offered on my streming service is worth downloading.
Oh you want me to pay for the movie?
Well I do with my streming subscription.
You want to sell me your streming service?
No thanks just make your movie available on the platform I have. *clicks download button*

@feliks Anyone “pirating” goods from a merchantman, while the original goods remain in place untouched, is no pirate. They are a multiplication magician, like Jesus.

@feliks @breizh 💯 Years ago, I searched an old tv serie of 1964 (black & white)… I couldn’t found it (even by buying it), was a pain to search, but finally found it on T411…

100% archaeology.

In France there is the case of the movie "le Grand détournement : la classe américaine". It was a command from Warner for the paid TV channel canal+. It was only broadcast once, and the Warner refused to have it rebroadcast or sold on DVDs.
It is made of snippets from various Warner movies stitched together with comedic dialogue added.
Digitised versions of VHS recording circulated for a while on P2P, and then one guy went looking for each and every scene on 1/2

DVDs of the original material and remade all the video editing with high res images, keeping the dialogues from VHS. This is what you can find now quite easily in french torrent sites.
No official copy exists, but the movie still lives, and that is great!

Seems Warner was not happy with the team's sense of humour, so they didn't want this film to exist.
