"We’re moving to a more modern, reliable way of storing your data, by using a cloud-based service that operates from Australia.

This change is happening across New Zealand - we're part of a national consortium of public libraries (with 41 other councils) called Kōtui, which is managed by the National Library of New Zealand, within the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA). All libraries that are part of Kōtui are making this change."

From an email sent by Hamilton City Libraries.

... would be to host it on dedicated server computers located at each library, operating together as a distributed server. With encrypted backups at an onshore datacentre. Hosting on a (presumably) US-owned datacentre in Australia is anything but.

Saying the quiet part out loud 📢
There must be real discussion about the possibility.

I bet Nikki makes a move for the nomination on the floor of the convention. She had to throw some support behind Trump for the cult to even consider it.

Alors on a de la place sur le réseau électrique pour connecter des projets renouvelables, nous dit Enedis, début 2024, 100 GW de capacité d’accueil.

Le problème c’est que cette capacité est essentiellement dans des endroits où vous ne pouvez pas développer de projets pour des questions réglementaires.

Mais on a la capacité d’accueil.

Tip of the day: when troubleshooting profiles, don't forget to reload the profile with apparmor_parser every time you make a change to the profile.

Not that I'm speaking from personal experience or anything...

Just understood the weird dryness in my right eye. We got kinda drunk Saturday. On Sunday morning I thought I had a kind of conjunctivitis.

I was starting to think the issue was really bad since drops didn’t help with the dryness even on Monday. Until this morning (Tuesday) coming out of the shower I looked at my stupid face close up in the mirror and saw a contact lens on my eye …forgotten for 3 nights.

Going to therapy now and it’s probably the first time my therapist will agree for once I am actual idiot. I mean seriously.

Quelle honte.

T'imagines, t'es l'une des voix starifiées de l'émission d'actualité de la radio phare du service public @franceinter
et ta vision du journalisme dont tu es fière, c'est le buzz, ou "le moment" (pour faire plus "pro" lol), au dépend de l'analyse journalistique.

Et la vidéo est titrée "J'étais sous les tours le 11 septembre à New York"

Tori Whanau's column in this weekend's Sunday Star-Times talked about introducing water meters and charging households for water.

Have we learned nothing from the privatisation of the publicly-funded electricity network? Which has led to households facing massive price hikes since the 1990s - a contributor to the rising cost of living - while effectively subsidising commercial users who can get power much cheaper on the spot market.

Wellington council are also looking at privatising what's left of the public's shareholding in the airport;

This is what happens when we don't have a progressive tax system that allows governments - local and central - to maintain public infrastructure without running huge budget deficits, and increasing public debt.

@andycarolan Can you move providers? Their track record doesn’t seem great.

@maique I have signed a new contract with another provider... so, hopefully by end of the week.
