Just out of curiosity. Can anyone recommend any tech video channels made by more diverse sets of people? With focus on e.g. Linux, *BSD, hardware, privacy-focused FLOSS phones/tablets? Also I'm interested in social aspects of computation & networking.
I'm sick of watching tech videos made by tech bros.

Ik word treurig van de berichten over overstromingen in België, Duitsland en Limburg.
Maar @nos, ik mis iets belangrijks. Ik mis een grote rode balk bovenaan de NOS-website die zegt dat we middenin de klimaatcrisis zitten. Dat we dit veel vaker gaan zien.
Ik mis een klimaatdashboard. Ik mis adviezen van het Climate Crisis Management Team.
Het Rode Kruis roept al jaren: De klimaatcrisis is een wereldwijde humanitaire crisis.
Na rampen slaan mensen op de vlucht. Maar er is maar één aarde...

What are some good OSM client for Linux? Offline map rendering, full map download and a good* search are important.
*bonus features: search only in the given view, generally do fuzzy searching, etc
I think it is hilarious when telemarketeers hang up on me in frustration when I refuse to give my birth date and mobile phone number.

De lijst met acceptatiecriteria van #knab bank is echt belachelijk.
Did some repairs on a #jaguar xkr convertible the last two days.
It has been a while and I forgot how much I love the smell in the workshop during car jobs.
It's a mix of grease, gasoline, leather, wax and probably loads of other things; yet very distinctive and recognizable
Finished the electronics bay wiring of the #voron today. All wiring from the top can be terminated on the ptfix connectors separately. So, that's next.

It's out!!
Well, a draft, at least. It took way longer than it should have to scrape up the information.
The big comparison of #Emacs #email clients, where I talk a bit about configuring MUA's such as:
#gnus
#rmail
#viewmail
#mhe
#mew
#wanderlust
#notmuch
#mu4e
and also add little notes & ideas about them.
The whole article is in sections; you're supposed to hop around to whatever you're into.
It'll probably take another week before it's good enough to be considered "done", but I'm proud enough that I wanted to push it out a bit early.

First power-on today for the #voron build (calibrating voltages).
Things didn't explode, so that is a good thing I guess.
(oh, and voltages were all good too)
