I'm in need of a little Nerd-Pr0n... what little useful thing comes into your mind as tool of at the Linux command line? Not a super-nerdy command to sophisticated resolve a problem, but a tool for actual problems that would also be useful for n00bs to take their fear about using the CLI?
So curling wttr.in is a nice trick - but yesterday I discovered v2 of the service (probably around for a million years but new to me).
curl v2.wttr.in/Berlinyt-dlp and wget to fetch files from the Intenets without having to open a browser were on the list yesterday as well, but I'm eager to (re)discover some other nice tools.

I've never really thought about, where and when humans had begun using glass... This is a fascinating read about the origins of glass and the art it was used for.

It is documented at the beginning of the installation documentation in the prerequirement "(a) choose a domain (b) setup HTTPS for the domain". OTOH nobody ever reads documentations. -

Happy 29th Birthday, Linux!
It’s August 25th were I sit so grab a bottle of champagne or bake a cake because it is time to celebrate Linux, which now turns 29 years old since Linus Torvalds announced it to the world. Happy 29th birthday, Linux!

I've joined the Fediverse August 2008 as @Tobias Diekershoff, after a report in one of Germans IT-News portals. I never was on Twitter before, but had a, more or less dormant, Facebook account. Microblogging was fun, in contrast to organizing study groups at FB ;-) and when Laconica (the software that ran identi.ca back then) got a first release to host your own instance, I set mine up and became one of those early pioneers stepping into the void starting to form the bubble that today is called the Fediverse.
And maybe I should some grayish strands into my profile picture ;-)

And while Microblogging was fun, for me one thing missing were private postings. Postings I only shared with friends, or with the people from my study group or with family members. So when diaspora* got a first alpha version released I got really excited about the self-hosted alternative to FB. So, I tried to set-up diaspora* on my server at home and failed after two weekends struggling with the requirements and the stable version of Debian :-)
So I looked for an alternative to the alternative and found Mistpark. A small one-man project to build a social media platform with Facebook like features. And one big plus point, it was written in PHP, same as Laconica/StatusNet, and was installed within minutes on the Debian box. I don't know exactly when that was, but it should be around December of 2010.
The last ten years went by in the blink of an eye. Friendica was the 1st multi protocol project in the Fedivers & Federation, speaking with IMAP, RSS feeds and both the OStatus and the diaspora* world. (And picked up ActivityPub along the way at some point.) It got my central spot of personal communication streams.
I've met many great people, we got friends and mourned together when some of us passed away. We had our ypots collected and drank our cup of coffee together in the morning. We celebrated birthdays and child birth. We saw monoliths struggle and fall. Islands in the void growing. Slowly but steadily that what got the Fediverse of today was formed. A diverse bunch of projects with a diverse group of communities connected through space and time. Slowly at first but every now and then a wave of newcomers was washed ashore the banks of the Fediverse and Federation.
Today we can celebrate another birthday. Ten long years ago, @Mike Macgirvin did the initial commit to ~friendica . Thank you Mike cheers! I wish I could share a home-brew with you. Have a great party today--all of you, being new or old to the Fediverse. Keep your physical distance as appropriate but get more closer socially :-) -

@Aral Balkan has given some explaining speech for the EU parliamentarians about Mastodon, the Fediverse and surveillance capitalism as part of a panel about The future internet regulation organized by the Greens group in parliament. Thanks Aral!
From around 1:14 to 1:52 in the recording. I had no time to listen/watch the rest of the panel ;-)

Some years ago members of the #Cairo #Hackerspace visited the #OpenTechSummit in #Berlin. We had a nice chat about FLOSS at the #FSFE booth and one of their stickers is on my notebook since then.
I just fixed it with some clear adhesive foil as the adhesion of the sticker started to get loose.
I really like that dancing robot <3 www.cairohackerspace.org/ -

So, from the archives (aka bookmorks) - savannah.gnu.org/
- @boneidol pointed in the direction of git.coop/users/sign_in (you have to join the coop)
- if you are a member/supporter of FSFE git.fsfe.org would be an option, don't know if FSF offers something similar
- for the Chaos peer-group, there is chaos.expert/
And then the corporate backed services, gitlab.com and bitbucket.com
