Eine originelle Rezension zu meinem Linux-Buch 🙂

@emoryr not a parent, but Ada and Zangemann seems like a good read: https://nostarch.com/ada-zangemann

@grillchen yeah, that's sad. The police are still pushing for mass surveillance at every given opportunity; it's so tiringm

@grillchen always has been.

@decathorpe o.O Well it still is only available in experimental, and still blocked on other stuff. Most notably the time_t transition in Debian. With gtk3 removed it'll be hopefully become less involved to update all packages.

@brainblasted digitally and legally ? Unlikely. I would get either a library card or buy the disks themselves so you can make copies.

... and GTK3-rs is (almost) removed from the #Debian archive. Since only two programs use that I opted for vendoring it in for those, though I really despise vendoring.
Another blocker for GTK-rs 0.8 cleared.

man resigned from MS just to become a farmer

Me: Ah, I have this part from my electronic parts collection I can use for this project. Surely #KiCad has a matching footprint/symbol for it.
Result: Part not in #KiCad, spend 3 hours and two MRs to add the part.
Note to self: Expect the unexpected.

I had fun though, it's been some time since I had to create a footprint from scratch.

Also hopefully others can make use of my contribution.

I'm a sucker for Haida and Coastal Salish design styles so this is the best manhole cover I've seen

A manhole cover in a sidewalk. It looks like a Haida or Coastal Salish design, with stylized animals. I see at least two heads, maybe a big fish and a small fish, but I'm not entirely sure. It is worn with the passage of many feet. At the bottom are the woods "SEATTLE CITY LIGHT"

@MikeDunnAuthor There is a good German book about it, unfortunately not available in English afaik.

Today in labor history April 29, 1919: From April 29 to May 2, government forces in Munich violently crushed the Republic of the Councils of Bavaria. Workers, socialists, anarchists, and sympathizers bravely resisted. However, the Freikorps and the White Guards of Capitalism prevailed. They killed hundreds in the fighting and executed over 1,000 anarchists and communists in the aftermath.

Black-and-white photo of her, young woman with braids, and a very intense expression on her face. Zinaida Portnova, known for having taken the lives of more than 100 Nazis by poisoning their food at just 16 years of age. She was captured by the Gestapo and while being interrogated, she disarmed the Nazi detective and shot him in the head. In her attempt to escape, she executed 2 more Nazis.

Is the approaching a tipping point?
