At some point I need to sort of a self hosted way of pumping interesting web articles to my Kobo. I currently use the Pocket integration but it feels like something I should be able to do without a third party.

In know there are RSS reader mods for the Kobo, so that's probably the device side of the equation, but something needs to pull arbitrary article contents into the feed.

I've done no research. May be a solved problem...

Is there no self hostable vinyl records collection tools that can use discogs etc. as metadata source? I googled and found nothing. 🧐 #vinyl #selfhosted


Thinking that my employer’s ambiguous relationship with the Federal Government maybe puts us in the crosshairs. Wondering what else is out there.

Python, Go (several years out of date on the latter), and umpteen flavors of shell. Longtime #Linux and #Unix hack.

Cattle not pets, but you probably want to know why your cattle are dying. Containers, distributed systems, API design, documentation, coding for maintainability.

Most Jews deported by Nazi Germany to Auschwitz for extermination were given the illusion of resettlement & new life. They packed their suitcases with all the essential items. Hope became one of the most important weapons.

Many suitcases we preserve and display at the Memorial are unique personal documents as they carry the names of
their owners.

while viewing this photo without any context, it only took a couple seconds to deduce what it depicts, and that realization was followed by the nausea of familiarity with what's happening right now

it should be emphasised more that robbery plain and simple robbery was a key motive for keeping things going. Much more than any religious aspect.

The Weimar republic needed gold more than anything else since the Deutsch Mark was worth less than the paper it was printed on. And the gold was in the hands of the Jews, at least so the Nazis thought. So plundering and robbing was extremely important.

So what was in the suitcase?
Exactly! valuables.

This is the ultimate MAGA endgame fantasy. They get to send desperate people who come to the U.S. for refuge to an authoritarian president they all adore, where the migrants will be tortured and brutalized. Sending American citizen prisoners there too is just icing. It's all just so bleak.

I'm sorry, what? How do you deport a citizen? I feel like you ... can't?*

We’re turning the mic over to you: Do you have questions about the past and present of prison labor in the U.S. — how it began, how it grew, or how it operates today?

Send us your questions, and we’ll choose a batch for historian Robert Chase to answer:

I guess people in the #USA won't be able to #vote any more without ID.

And guess who is in charge of the systems that generate a lot of the ID - And knows your #race, #gender, prescription history and probably any political cause you have ever donated to in the past.

Légitimement, hein, certains ministères français ont essayé... ils ont eu des problèmes si je me souviens bien

@bortzmeyer et Google a été jusqu'à se payer un gTLD pour ça !
Juste pour ça ? Je ne sais pas répondre

.goog est utilisé pour d'autres services internes (pour ne pas dépendre de Verisign).

@bortzmeyer Encore plus important en fait: `pki.goog. 1d IN CAA 0 issue "pki.goog"` ce qui est TRES loin d'être le cas de toutes les AC, j'avais fait une étude rapide...

The most interesting thing about Conservative Gavin Dew’s Vancouver Sun column on Trump’s tariffs is what isn’t there, notes Tyee senior editor Paul Willcocks.

Dew blasts Premier Eby, but never criticizes Trump.
