We've just released version 3.4, which is all about efficiency:
🚀 Faster refreshing (of podcasts with 1k+ episodes)
🚀 Up to 10x faster podcast deletion
🚀 Restructuring of codebase to modernise it & make it ready for new contributors (wrapping up a 3-year effort)
🤐 Skip silence setting per podcast
🔙 Option to automatically backup the database
🔀 Ability to reorder home screen sections
… and more
@broz42
The revamp happened over several years, and changes were released (to our users) as they were ready. We now have concluded the effort and included the last bunch of structure changes in the 3.4 release.
My experiments going out with my CO2 monitor are discouraging. Tonight, with COVID in wastewater at its lowest in 11 months in my city, we went out to eat. We hoped for outdoor dining, but it rained, so we sat inside. CO2 readings:
4:30 pm: 50% crowd in a brewpub: 1548
5:45 pm: 75% crowd in a Mexican restaurant: 1341
7:45 pm: Long line at ice cream shop: 1896
I thought businesses upgraded air filtration & ventilation, but these readings encourage me to stay home. #COVID19 taught us nothing.
@zephyrleifrenner@TracyTThomas Do you have any links to the science of that, because that is not what studies I've seen indicate. Yes, there is no "safe" level of CO2--a single infectious person can infect others even with CO2 low. But, as CO2 rises, so does the amount of rebreathed air, and that raises risks. Every article I've seen says CO2 remains a proxy for viral risks in a crowded room.
@augieray Low CO2 no longer proxies safe, even though high ambient CO2 always proxies potential danger. That study you posted about airplane flights is an example of this. Even in the presence of filtration the virus is now efficiently transmitting at short, fast range. You can also look at the WHO’s calculator; it will show that ventilation or cleaned air do nothing to change the very high short range transmission rate. @TracyTThomas
Remember Collada? Yeah the format is pretty much dead at this point, but Blender still has it (because of Sketchup, Chief Architect, Bricklink Studio etc.). However it felt increasingly uncomfortable to continue using OpenCollada (that embeds old 3rd party libraries with several dozen known security issues). So here's a "cleanup fork" of OpenCollada that gets rid of the security issues part (but also gets rid of everything Blender does not need). https://github.com/aras-p/OpenCOLLADA
@BenRiceM@jelly note that you have to set the user-agent to edge manually because Google will try to use their proprietary stuff with a Chromium but that is only in Chrome. I start my Chromium from the shell thusly to make it a bit more convenient than messing with the dev tools every time: https://gist.github.com/janl/48ab70c51f604a4cb06cc0cea165ee4e
International Criminal Court, last Monday: seeks arrest warrants for Benjamin #Netanyahu and Yoav #Gallant for criminal responsibility in starvation of civilians and crimes against humanity.
International Court of Justice, Friday: “Israel must immediately halt its military offensive and any other action in Rafah which may inflict on the Palestinian group in #Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part”
@jimfuller I'm not sure I see the value in doing that. We're doing basically that automatically every day as daily snapshots (and we verify it in the CI). We know the scripted making of a release "just works".
It's amazing how publishers of school reading books really manage to produce works that capture young children's imagination and fuel a lifelong passion for reading. Just look at this gem I pulled out of MiniStrasse's book bag!
@HailsandAles As far as your Styx playlist goes, I have my buddy Jon, who is also an expert, working on his, and I will compare our two for your best possible experience... ;>)
@HailsandAles Well, I'll shut up at some point, but a site everyone interested in the sport should familiarize themselves with is Baseball Reference. This is your bible, mate...
