I'm surprised you didn't mention rss bridging. You can rssify anything, actually.

My opinion is the best way to get Vitamin D is to from being outdoors in the sunshine...

I should take a walk right now. It's beautiful out there today.

Do you have any experience or recommendations on using the note taking method?

Yeah, I have no interest in Obsidian. I'm fine with using wiki style applications or for .

Not sure I'll commit to the discipline of Zettelkasten... but I've been aware of the concept for a while and it appeals to me.

This is the fix that I was looking for to mitigate the "PHP" glibc vulnerability in Ubuntu server:

Question on the PHP glibc vulnerability:

Does anyone know a blog post or other documentation for how to turn off the character set that allows the vulnerability in Ubuntu and Debian?

Here's a good blog post by Rocky Linux on the subject, but I'm not sure how to translate the instructions to Debian and Ubuntu.

@matthew There’s some information on the official @php website that might be helpful: https://www.php.net/archive/2024.php#2024-04-24-1

I just did this on my VPS running Ubuntu (focal) 20.04.6 LTS as follows...

sudo $EDITOR /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gconv/gconv-modules

search for "ISO2022CNEXT" and comment out lines per above instructions

sudo iconvconfig
iconv -l | grep -E 'CN-?EXT'

While working on a video, I found a way to do background noise filtering with ffmpeg.

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -af arnndn=lq.rnnn output.mkv

I found the information and link to download the rnnn filter file at https://www.amirsharif.com/using-ffmpeg-to-reduce-background-noise/

If you don't like what a company is doing... don't keep buying products and services from them.

Use your money (life force) to support what you want more of and stop the flow of resources to what you see as being harmful.

Good for them for standing their ground and not caving to pressure to sell.

Weird situation all around, as the ban really doesn't mean anything with over 200 days to appeal and no action taken to keep American people from using TikTok in the meantime.

I hate censorship as much as I hate Tiktok. Damn the government for making me side with Tiktok.

Side note EFF has been at the front of this fight forever & led the fight for HTTPS everywhere. Love them big time and best source for related details as well as privacy tools for everyone from basic users to 1337 infosec boffins! https://ssd.eff.org/ https://www.eff.org/pages/tools

So, anyone know how this ban is going to be enforced? Or attempted to be enforced?

I'm guessing government forced removal from mobile app stores, but then what about people who already have the app? Or who side-load it on their Android phones. Or use a web app?

Great firewall of the USA?

@matthew a US ban is better than a US purchase, though, for a perspective outside of the USA. Having the US control all the mainstream social media is not diversity...

Just over a week since I began cutting almost all plants out of my diet. I eat mostly beef and eggs, with some dairy.

I do still drink some coffee with cream, but cut out sweet (I used to add some maple syrup or sugar). I am noticing that I don't feel as much of a desire to drink coffee as before and I am probably drinking less than half of what I used to.

Since it has only been a week, it is tough to gauge the benefits.

One thing is that it is much easier for me to get up in the morning.

I feel more mentally alert, but my body is still a bit sluggish probably due to getting used to the change and much lower carbohydrate intake.
