At least we tried? #tfr
What are you talking about. Everyone knows polls are the best way to determine what is or is not a myth. That’s why that TV show Mythbusters failed so miserably and is off the air now. Too much fiddly experimentation and sciency mumbojumbo, and not nearly enough polls. It really helps if the polls ask pointed questions about hot button issues with little to no context also… So people aren’t confused or have to think too much (which also is a form of dishonesty when you think (but not too much) about it). Pretty sure there is a poll out there somewhere that confirms this.
Interesting perspective, but I’d tend to argue that the technologies such as WiFi have massively increased inclusiveness and accessibility for magnitudes more people than it has raised issues for.
WiFi, for example, allows libraries to offer servises 24 hours a day without the need to physically enter the building. Wirh such openness comes some security and resource sharing challenges, and metimrs addressed by throttling or overly aggressive firewalls. But for nearly everyone the expanded accessibility has been fantastic.
I am also concerned with outsourcing. But worried about cloudflare are pretty far down the list. Adobe controlled DRM on most ebooks, and even third party cloud based catalogues, are way more concerning. But unfortunately these happen to be the most cost effective way the limited funding of libraries can manage in many cases. I hate these circumstances but it seems to me the compromise is providing more access to more resources for more people, not less.
This is not to discourage always better ways and more freedom and efficiency. But overall I just can’t see how the issues you cite are excluding people more than helping include more people.
Lets face it, the half dozen people per million (if that) who care about the FLOSS status of thier WiFi hardware’s firmware, probably are technically capable enough to find a way to access library resources securely more than most people!

As a person who ages ago created and single letter (before the @) email address thinking myself clever and efficient… I’m amazed and distressed how many forms have insisted that my email address is invalid.
The wealthy NEED the airports to keep running so not to interfere with their vacation plan. Starving kids on the other hand can simply be rewoven as doormats by any good capitalist.
And yet their makeup is impeccable. Article says “young people”, but curiously only cute women in the pictures.
“It looks cute, and yet, you don’t lose that feeling of sexiness.” Ah, the all important feeling of sexiness in the office that women strive for.
Ai Weiwei lived in China most of his life, and was openly critical of the government there. He has been imprisoned before. In his family history, one of his parents was internally exiled. This is a brave person who knows a few things from personal experience and deserves some respect and consideration, even if you disagree.
I haven’t tried it but I’ve been thinking about it… Since NextCloud supports s3 storage it would seem its photo apps, such as Memories should work that way?

Seems like a tacit admission at very least that to anyone without access to these internal documents the accusation of genocide is reasonable. Interesting.
Thanks for the link. Yeah, my server is old. COPS is old, but still works great for me. .
Calibre has built in server, but while running server (last I checked) it locks the db so you can’t do much with the Gui, can’t add books etc. Also I’m already running a a web server with php so it’s more efficient just to slap the COPS web app there rather than run yet another server.
Ask why. Then probably work on subversion… because it is seriously doubtful they’ve come back for any good reason.
Similarly I use COPS (php calibre front-end)… But with no users or auth. If you can guess the URL you are in! Exciting.
I don’t actually know anything. But casually to me it looked like a choice between 160% chance of it getting worse and a 300% chance of getting worse. And it’s not very surprising at all in these circumstances many go for the latter for all sorts of reasons (and delusions). But I don’t actually know anything.
Works well with nextcloud also.
Note at top of developer web site:
Distribution of Enhancer for YouTube™ temporarily stopped! Due to the countless changes that the YouTube developers have made, Enhancer for YouTube™ is now completely broken for Firefox (partially works for Chromium based browsers) so I had to pause its distribution.
So far I’ve found the Improve YouTube extension does many (but not all) of the things Enhancer did.
AppStream makes machine-readable software metadata easily accessible. It is a foundational block for modern Linux software centers, offering a seamless way to retrieve information about available software, no matter the repository it is contained in. It can provide data about available applications as well as available firmware, drivers, fonts and other components. This project it part of freedesktop.org.
If just annotating, I’d also suggest Okular. It’s pretty good at notes, highlighting, etc.
The free version of MasterPDF (as available via AUR) is fully functional, but it will add watermark if you modify any PDF page contents (and maybe other conditions).
Ha ha, maybe. The article is pretty short. However, the actual paper linked at the bottom of the article is titled “Hamiltonian cycles on Ammann-Beenker Tilings” (unfortunately I can only see the abstract), so the original authors are also responsible!
It’s my thinking that the key point of thr Hamiltonian cycle in this context is it visits nodes only once thereby creating a unique path. The trick here seems to be then joining those paths for a collection of subgraphs? I’m really not sure. It’s a bit beyond me, but I find it interesting to think about.
