The very fact we have to say “vote against fascism” is a damning indictment of the failure of our democratic institutions and the rule of law. You shouldn’t be able to vote FOR fascism. Democracies that lack constitutional safeguards against fascism will, eventually, stop being democracies. When? At the last election. The one that elected the fascists. Democracy cannot tolerate fascism. Tolerance cannot tolerate intolerance. I’m afraid this is a lesson we will learn the hard way. Again.
The main way to store #LGBTQ+ aspect in #OpenStreetMap is with the lgbtq tag. 🏳️🌈
lgbtq=primary is for locations which cater to an exclusively or predominantly LGBTQ+ audience, either by the managers running it that way, or by overwhelming convention. Subtags (lgbtq:*=*) can be used for finer details.
This is a friendly warning and reminder that if you had started looking on ways to move away from #Microsoft and/or #Adobe for their latest shenanigans, do NOT stop now. Make the effort to move away NOW if at all possible even if they pretend to have backtracked. Because WHEN (not IF, but WHEN) they'll pull the same shit again, it will be HARDER, not EASIER, to get out of their prison.
Like Kitten itself, it’s a baby but will be evolving quickly as they approach API version 1 together.
Enjoy!

PS. Of course it’s written in Kitten itself. It doesn’t do anything fancy but here’s the source code if you’re interested: https://codeberg.org/kitten/site
Help us test DNF 5.2 in Fedora Rawhide! In these test days we're focusing on the ability to do a system upgrade, so it's very important to catch any bugs.
Quick heads up: Kitten’s installer/downloads will be offline for a few minutes as I recreate kittens.small-web.org (the site that new Kittens are deployed to when they’re born) as it was originally on Ubuntu and sites deployed by Domain are now using AlmaLinux. Also, I am setting Kitten’s API version to 0 (it was initially set to 1) to signal that it is prerelease. When the version is back to 1 it will be because API version 1 is stable.

Tutto il mondo usa Windows, ma una minoranza sa che l'opzione migliore è Linux, tutto il mondo vuole risolvere i problemi con la guerra, ma una minoranza sa che la guerra crea problemi nuovi senza risolvere i vecchi, tutto il mondo vuole risolvere la crisi climatica senza troppi scossoni ma una minoranza sa che bisogna cambiare stili di vita e modelli di sviluppo, tutto il mondo si rinchiude nelle false sicurezze della politica ma una minoranza sa che i cambiamenti sono innanzitutto culturali.
We launched https://mietencheck.de today. Once I have some oxygen again I’ll blog about the process and tech.
If you’re renting in Berlin, give it a look! Feedback very welcome
In this villa near Florence, Italy, Galileo Galilei spent the last decade or so of his life under house arrest. I was there this weekend on the panel of a science outreach event, here's the video recording in Italian:
Mi son svegliato canticchiando "Ho visto un re" di Jannacci (testo di Fo) e, tutto considerato, forse resta sempre la miglior descrizione del capitalismo all'italiana messa in musica
Ecco un dato riportato ieri alla Festa dei Popoli. Quanto servirebbe per eradicare la #fame dal mondo? ChatGPT 4o (la versione più avanzata attualmente disponibile di Intelligenza Artificiale generativa) ha scandagliato i database disponibili in rete per fare un calcolo attendibile. Il risultato che emerge è sconvolgente: basta lo 0,94% delle spese militari del #G7. Basterebbe rinunciare a meno dell'uno per cento della spesa militare dei grandi della Terra che si incontreranno in Puglia!
