People angry about the recent changes in the frequent flyer program. It is a big disappointment, and only revenue driven.

«Donald Trump is a liar, a cheat and a fraud who doesn’t care a wit about you, or anyone else but himself. He’s a convicted felon. Every time he faces consequences for his own actions he claims it’s someone else’s fault. Whenever he loses that the process is rigged against. We all know that person. And we all know we can’t trust that person.»

Well, there goes your banking data.

"Santander staff and '30 million' customers hacked"

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c6ppv06e3n8o

So glad I pulled out of that shit-site a year ago. I had opened an account but gave it up a couple months later b/c their Web portal is so bad. Actually on my last transfer out it says "because your software is shit", but I'm confident nobody at Santander read that.

One of the surprisingly nice thing about is that there's no special treatment of speakers other than being guaranteed a ticket - no special badge, no special areas, no special dinners. It's just one big community where speaking is just one of the ways to contribute, and all the others are just as important.

ascherbaum,

@mjg59 Dunno, for conferences we get asked for a quiet speaker room (which really is open for everyone, but mostly used by speakers to prepare).

Badges differentiate between Staff, Speaker and Attendee - which helps finding speakers. It's not a large difference, but it helps.

Our conferences also don't make a profit, but they break even. Otherwise it's not sustainable. And after all, conference is not going to happen without talks and speakers.

ascherbaum,
@ascherbaum@mastodon.social avatar

@mjg59 We also recognize volunteers. Given our conferences don't have makers, they have sponsors. But sponsors are not handled differently than attendees.,

Depending on conference size it's between 20 and 80 people who help making it happen, one way or another.

Today, I had an alert on a self-hosted database running on with 1TB of RAM and 18TB of NVMe (in RAID10-like). 100% i/o write usage. 3k connections. Why on earth do we need that amount of resources? There must be something wrong in the design.

Die Begründung des , warum man den Abwassermonitoring Bericht jetzt nicht mehr direkt online einsehen kann, sondern nur noch als (HTML!) Download?

"Der Bericht ist mittlerweile sehr umfangreich, sodass wir das umstellen mussten. Wir suchen aber noch eine Lösung, damit man ihn nicht mehr herunterladen muss."

Oida. WTF.

I very occasionally check my formerly-known-as-Twitter account (because every few weeks, someone sends me a DM still).

I'm disheartened to see that there's still so much content over there I miss here, because so many accounts are only on X still - including friends, but also orgs like Amnesty Germany, local initiatives, etc posting different content to different channels, et al. I assume it's the same on BSky.

Don't get me wrong, I love the , but I hate missing out.

@larsmb Same, unfortunately. A good part of the tech community as well seems to be very comfortable there, no matter what's going on on the platform.

And do you still get new followers, with no activity on the profile?

Twelve years ago I was invited to present on #DNSSEC in Moscow. Quite the show actually: we had simulataneous translators (think: EU parliament) who translated my English to Russian and back for questions from the audience.

Imagine my surprise when I met @krisbuytaert there: he too had been invited to give a talk.

The stay was great: it allowed me to brush up on my Russian: I learned how to pronounce 'nyet'.

@jpmens @krisbuytaert Moscow is a nice city, all in all. Shame we won't go there for a long time.

As of now I rather see this UA conference happening which was canceled in 2020 :-(

Well, they have big changes! For "security reasons" soon I can't use a username for login anymore, or a phone number. Only email address.

Anyone has an idea why they are fixated on the "username" part of the login? Not that I'm using the platform ...

@Seirdy Honestly? Sounds complicated. Plus I need to be aware of any comments, only then they show up. So far Mastodon is friendly, and I just implemented the block list for when I need it. I rather have open discussions and don't need to rebuild it every time.
