Filming by itself isn’t illegal in Germany, but publishing the footage without consent of everyone in the video is. (“Recht am eigenen Bild”) Don’t know how this applies if the perpetrator is from the USA and publishes the recording there, though.
And even if - good luck in suing someone from the US while you’re still in Germany.
From the linked article:
Two things that aren’t changing: every Strava athlete can still access and download their data for free, at any time – and wearable and device integrations are not affected.
Tell that to some states in the US where there’s a thing called “one-party consent”, i.e. if one party knows about the recording (which the wearer obviously would), it’s legal.
There was a similar news article in Germany a few days ago. It was about a “pick-up artist/dating coach/influencer” named Erick Ronaldo secretly filming some girl at the Oktoberfest and posting it to his channel where that girl was ridiculed in the comments. (Fun fact: when the news media approached that guy and asked for a statement, he demanded $7,500 for an interview - which they, of course, didn’t pay)
For everyone else who’s deep into the Apple world: No iOS app and thus no sync to Apple Health.
Mine is sitting in a nearby delivery depot since Saturday 1am. And GLS doesn’t deliver on Saturdays. :(
Yeah, also thanks to scalpers. (Also, since when is it legal to offer an item on ebay you don’t even have in your possession?)
I’ve converted an old Kindle into a TRMNL and connected it to their Laravel server running in a Docker container.
It’s okay-ish, but the use is limited. Either it switches between different screens every few minutes and you never see the thing you’d like to see in the moment. Or, you can put 4 different things onto one screen but they’ll be tiny.
I seem to be more of a push-based kind of person who prefers information to come in the right moment via an alarm or notification.
What I did when starting out with Python: I’ve bought a book similar to the O’Reilly Pocket Reference and read it cover to cover to get an overview of the structure, syntax, and available objects and methods. Then started piecing my tools together by looking at other people’s code and copying the bits I could use. If you want some inspiration, have a look at my Python projects.
I’d use ImageMagick, but if you want to do it in plain* Python, here’s an example: https://stackoverflow.com/a/79683407
* Well, you’ll need pyAPNG.
Ligatures, slashed zeros, clearly distinguishable Il1/O0, not too big of a gap between lines, and maybe script-like italics. My current main monospace font is IosevkaTerm Nerd Font.
I also find the idea of using retro pixel fonts interesting, but so far couldn’t get myself to actually try some of the fonts mentioned here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47708411 .
Yes, besides Gopher and Gemini, “small web” usually includes traditionally coded HTML+simple CSS+handmade/small JS websites. I.e. websites that are not using a big JS framework or huge amounts of CSS.
There’s also XPenology - a hacked Synology software to run on non-Synology systems. Awesome when you’ve got it running, can be somewhat adventurous and/or nerve-wrecking when a major update is due.
“Do you have natural freckles or did you use that shoulder-mounted guided missile prototype again?”
The main problem here is persistance. Most users are on machines that get turned off.
This! It only works if you have a server that’s online 24/7. Can be a VPS in a data centre, can be some Raspberry Pi running at your home with a DNS name pointing to it.
If you are not a Gitea customer, you are not being informed of security updates in a timely manner
I don’t need a notification of issues, I need a notification of when there’s a new version to roll out. And that can be solved by using things like WatchTower or setting up release notifications on GitHub.
And, of course, a comparison hosted on ForgeJo’s webpage will make it out that they’re “the better choice”.
Also, ForgeJo was promising federation which is still a WIP several years later.
Oh no, it doesn’t do the big feature™. I guess it’s unusable now.
Well, that was the one big distinguishing thing between the two, back when ForgeJo was the new kid on the block. ForgeJo wanted to make it a priority to implement federation.
And I never said it’s unusable - it’s just that I, personally, don’t see any reason to switch from Gitea to ForgeJo.
I’m staying with Gitea. They’ve created the Ltd. so they can sell professional support as most businesses will want a proper invoice. I don’t see anything wrong with that. Also, ForgeJo was promising federation which is still a WIP several years later. And, the one time I’ve tried ForgeJo it shit itself when I’ve added an emoji to my username. For some reason Gitea didn’t have any problem with that.
Yeah, probably. But this doesn’t help much when the damage is already done, i.e. people have already commented bad things. And might even entice people (that might’ve downloaded it) to upload it again. Also, not sure whether this works as easy on e.g. TikTok.
