Exactly the thing one wants to happen, just minutes before leaving to catch the train to (not)

Studienidee:

Welchen Einfluss hatte die Verbreitung von Emoticons als neue Sprache zur leichteren Kommunikation von Emotion auf die Veränderung des öffentlichen Diskurs in den letzten 30 Jahren?

@Mazzo @xro This being the Internet, I expected something very different… 😅

Hab versucht in Graz heute ne Covid-Schutz-Auffrischungsimpfung zu bekommen.

Impfzentrum der Stadt: nope
Hausarzt: nope
Ärztezentrum: nope und nichts mehr geplant.

WTH?

Das Ding mutiert immer noch schneller als die Grippe und gegen Influenza lässt man sich auch 1 mal im Jahr impfen.

Schadet tut die Impfung nix, also könnte es helfen.

Die Logik der Ärzte erschließt sich mir daher nicht ganz. Fühlt sich bissi wie ein kollektives Verdrängen der Ärzteschaft an oder der Person welche Empfehlungen für Österreich schreibt.

@xro Ihr Argument war, dass die Mutation innerhalb der gleichen Gruppe(?) stattfindet und daher mein Immunsystem dagegen bereits ausgiebig schüzt.

Sie ist auch stark für Grippe-Impfung jedes Jahr mitte November. Also gegen Impfungen per se hat sie nix. Im Gegenteil - sie prüft das bei der Gesundenuntersuchtung jedes Mal sehr genau.

Ich werde aus ihr auch nicht so ganz schlau, da sie auch gegen Masken ist.

Dumme jetzt überall verbreitete Webseiten-Anmeldungs-UX wo erst e-Mail dann Pwd abgefragt wird, statt gleichzeitig.

Bei Booking.com ändert sich die zweite Webseite, abhängig davon ob die e-Mail in Booking's DB existiert oder nicht.

Das kann man natürlich überhaupt nicht missbrauchen um verteilt e-mails auf existenz sowie auf booking accounts zu testen. 🤔🤦

@xro Witziger Zufall. Wir waren heute bei der Derniere seines Programms.

Ich werde vielleicht darüber bloggen.

Vor der Wahl soll auch noch ein sehr wichtiges Video erscheinen.

How Sweden switched from left-driving to right-side-driving

  • because the infrastructure was already mostly there
  • because left-driving caused problems
  • because all neighbors used right-side standard
  • forward-looking policy making, before the 5x increase in traffic came which studies predicted
  • against public habit and vote, because it was the obvious thing to do, knowing that everybody would get used to it quickly and see the advantages afterward

I did it ... 😊 I could not leave it be...
I ordered custom printed from WASD for my customized showing the full layout. 😅 Plus the keyboards first FN-layer.

They arrived .. today 😀 and they are beautiful. Came out much nicer and less chaotic than I feared. Even though , chaosknot and fairydust-rocket are part of the design 😁

On top of that, I added o-rings for a softer key-press bottom-out.

keycap design, remix at will: https://github.com/btittelbach/custom_printed_keycaps/tree/main

The photo shows a angled closeup of xro's custom Chrumm Keyboard with newly added custom printed keycaps. The chaos knot is used as symbol for "Alt" and fairy-dust is used as symbol for "Enter" while a gamecontroller is used as symbol for "Ctrl"

"Uncle I've read the Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy.. and say... where is Betelgeuse?"

"It doesn't exist anymore"

https://earthsky.org/brightest-stars/betelgeuse-will-explode-someday/

Kind of amazing that we have recent popular literature which mentions a star and assumes it is a permanent fixture in the sky, when that star might explode within our lifetime. 🤯

Of course we also have star charts from the middle ages that show stars that can't be found in the sky today. 🤷🤔

What's the problem with #ads and #advertisement?

  • ads are information
  • ads are intentionally incorrect and misleading
  • ads are ubiquitous available information, to the point of being actively PUSHED onto every human reachable.
  • for many people who don't actively seek other sources, it is the main source of information.

That"s not a good basis for a #democracy where informed citizens are supposed to make good decisions.

@publicvoit

I was actually mainly thinking about TV ads, billboards, analog newspaper ads, mailbox leaflets or whole papers that pretend to be a newspaper but are in reality a big ad, 😅

since thanks to AdBlockers, WebAds have seized to be a problem for me.

But you are right, the WWW without AdBlockers is a dangerous and unusable mess. At least here on the Web we have a technical solution against ads.

#malware #advertisement #adblocker #NoScript #security #ads

@publicvoit@graz.social avatar

@xro I see.

Good point and I agree.

ad WWW: I presume that 99%+ aren't using any protection against ads/malware in their browser. Therefore, I consider this (also) a very important threat to the public.

Finally finished my second 😃 🎉

This version features -12° backwards tilt instead of -3° and is thus a bit higher.

It also features 20° split angle instead of 12°, which feels much better. On the MS Ergonomic keyboard, which seems to also have only 12°, I actually also used an wider arm angle so so that finger movement is more isometric over the diagonally arranged keys.

The body was printed with resin and the threading hole diameter needed to be increased for glueing.

The path to a better(?) parametrically generated is fraught with failed s. 😅

On the FFF side, 3 prints with 3 filaments failed, before I could pin down the reason for it (all our filaments needed drying)

On the resin side, 1 print had the wrong parameters and 2 prints with high clarity resin bent away from the support structure and thus assembling became inviable. Also I further destroyed one of those while trying to fit a threaded inset into it. 😅

Collage of failed resin print with black ABS like resin. Good thing it failed, because it also showed me that I would have to order new PCBs for these angles.
Collage of 3 failed FFF prints. Materials used were PETG, Meta PLA and GreenTecPro. All prints have a lot of stringing and uneven surfaces due to having drawn too much moisture from the air.

Built myself a last week in standard configuration. (chrumm is actually a very cool parametric STL and PCB keyboard generator)

The goal was to see how I would do with isometric aligned keys.

So far, my experience has been great. No problem with the rectilinear layout per se.

The main annoyances so far focused on the missing F-key-row, the two missing keys on the left half that I need regularly and having to type '6' with the right hand instead of the left.
