@utzer latest news was last Sunday. The Quitter.se admins can be reached at @quitter, and you can read on that profile everything that has happened. I think it's just a question of time that Quitter.se will be back.
Hi @donaervilha :-) you won't be able to read me directly from Diaspora… but maybe @utzer could kindly repeat my post from Friendica… :-) -

@ao @ilpianista you could also check Tim Pritlove's #CRE podcasts. https://cre.fm/ I think they are good for learners of German as they are well structured, audio is excellent and #Pritlove speaks very clearly and not too fast. The topics are always very interesting. -

@timttmy @ghostdancer @cyberkiller @moonman @ckeen Test results with DVD player and a tube tv:
#DeVeDe: the video quality was not to my satisfation with the default settings… weird "interlace artefacts of moving objects". With #DVDStyler the DVD video quality was very good.
Actually DVDStyle kept the original codec & frame rate and used the "copy" method. DeVeDe OTOH decided to do time-consuming converting, maybe tried to compress more than actually needed. Probably DeVeDe can create pleasing video quality too but DVDStyler came up with a very acceptable result without having to change any options.
I looked up but skipped PiTiVi b/c it's focus seems rather on video editing so it may rather suit the more advanced user -

@moonman @ckeen @cyberkiller @timttmy @ghostdancer Reporting back…
I tried both #DVDStyler and #DeVeDe. I ended up using DVDStyler which let me add my 35 MPG files all together using drag&drop. With DeVeDe adding 35 MPG files was a bit too tedius (35x a lot of clicks). DeVeDe seems to offer a lot more properties options for each added file (subtitles, etc.) but I don't need that now.
DVDStyler is helpful for creating a pleasing-looking dvd menu with selectable background images and you can also do some text positioning and add some cliparts. → -

@mmn maybe, as seen from mastodon.xyz, the WholeKnownNetwork looks a lot more non-techie, anime and loli-like than expected.
Mastodon instances hide the public timeline so people can't see what's going on inside *before* creating an account there. -

I noticed a new !GNUsocial instance with zero posts on the public timeline, but: there already have a #followbot following 3500 remote accounts.
I wonder if the #professional behaviour of some #Mastodon instances now comes to mainland !GNUsocial? https://quitter.no/attachment/1172505 https://quitter.no/attachment/1172508 -

the process #Kswapd on my #BananaPi uses ~ 100% cpu in Top.
Other than that the system is running fine and I don't see much performance impact (it's a dual core machine anyway).
I do not use a swap partition nor a swap file. Also there is still free memory left. So what's happening with kswapd here? Any idea?

@hannes2peer Awesome! Btw: it would great to have #FederatedUserSearch some time. So, when a #newuser1 has registered at #instance1 and #newuser2 has registered at #instance2, they can find each other via the Search box, even though they are both new and don't have any followers anywhere.
So the Search on #instance1 should query all remote instances (that are known to the local instance because of a remote following) via a protocol extension "hey #instance2, do you happen to have #someusername?" The search query could be sent out to the other instances in parallel.
I had that idea after having a short look on that very stupid Mashable article about Mastodon, where William Shatner seems to have tried Mastodon.social and immediately tried to find some other guy who had just registered on another Mastodon instance, and failed. I think this is one valid point of that otherwise really stupid article. -

@micahflee on many !gnusocial nodes (like quitter.se, gnusocial.de) you can connect your Twitter account to your GNUsocial profile and enable cross-posting. So what you post on GNUsocial will automatically posted from your Twitter account to your Twitter followers, too.
GNUsocial can also do #bidirectional Twitterbridge, so replies from Twitter users would appear in your GNUsocial timeline, so you could interact with Twitter accounts transparently. (Just because this bidirectional feature tends to impose heavy load it's usually not enabled on larger public GS instances. It's also kind-of against some Twitter term-of-use. But maybe you can find an instance that has it enabled, or create your own instance and enable that plugin.) @moonman @lambadalambda -

@benediktg als Milliardär ist Trump denke ich gewohnt, dass er ruhig ein paar Fehlversuche haben kann, aber sich irgendwann doch durchsetzt.
Übrigens: Wenn sein Kandidat Gorsuch als oberster Richter reinkommt, dann sind dort die "konservativen" Richter in der Mehrheit und dann kriegt Trump möglicherweise jeden Scheiß durch oberste Gericht. -

"The President's official tweets are now written by a man who regularly promotes #fake stories on Twitter
…
Mr Scavino has used his own Twitter page to publish a number of untrue posts, including one of a video he said showed Syrian #refugees in Germany holding a rally in support of #Isis.
The event was actually a protest against a German #far-right group."

@67 ich bezweifle aktuell, ob "Regieren nach dem #Willen der #Bürger" (=Demokratie) immer zu _gutem Regieren_ führen wird.
Was ist, wenn die Mehrheit der Bürger (die sich am Abstimmen beteiligt) einen objektiv unmoralischen, unsolidarischen #Willen hat? z.B. "wir lassen keine Moslems rein" oder "Hauptsache uns gehts gut, andere wollen wir nicht unterstützen".
In manchen Regionen (Freital...) ist das der "Wille der Bürger" (lokale Wahlergebnisse). Sollen wir die regieren lassen, auch wenn sie die Mehrheit haben? -

@67 @67 … und die noch linkeren Parteien wie #DKP & #MLPD fassen gar nicht richtig Fuß. Die hätten auf jeden Fall mehr % bei Wahlen verdient – allein schon weil mehr Opposition gebraucht wird.
Aber die sind den Wählern glaub ich zu kompliziert mit ihren Argumenten (quasi das Gegenteil von populistisch).
Und die werden ja auch nie in Talkshows eingeladen, also wissen die meisten Wähler gar nicht, dass es diese Parteien überhaupt gibt. -

@67 die Linkspartei ist ja auch nicht mehr wirklich "Links" sondern eher sozialdemokratisch, während die SPD selber nach rechts geshiftet ist.
Sicher haben die Verarmten und Ausgrenzten auch von der SPD die Nase gestrichen voll – mit Recht, denn die ist an dem Elend die ganze ZEit mit Schuld. Dieser schlechte Ruf mag auf die Linkspartei mit abgefärbt haben. -

@67 die rechten, Pegida, AfD, usw. sind sehr "laut" und offensiv (auf ihren Veranstaltungen und in Talkshows) und versprechen den sozial Ausgegrenzten alles mögliche (dabei sind sie in Wirklichkeit ultra-neoliberal, das sagen sie aber nur im kleineren Kreis).
Und populistische Äußerungen wie "wählt uns, wir räumen dann mal richtig auf" kommen besser an, als die leisen vorsichtig agierenden Linken, z.B. Linkspartei, die wissen und sagen, dass es keine ganz einfachen schnellen Lösungen gibt .
