*approaching stand-up mic*

There's a lot of things you're not allowed to joke about these days...

[nervous chuckles from crowd]

...they said I'm not allowed to joke about British food.

So I asked why? Why am I not allowed to joke about British food?

Apparently it's considered poor taste.




Ich bin wirklich gespannt, wie es morgen in #Berlin mit @Letzte Generation ausgehen wird. Ich befürchte massive Auseinandersetzungen zwischen allen Beteiligten mit hohem Verletzungspotential.

"In Germany, farmers used the exact same tactic, blocking roads with their tractors to protest a renewable energy policy...Not a single farmer was punched in the face or dragged off the road by their hair"

Meet the Shadowy Network Vilifying Climate Protestors

https://www.desmog.com/2023/09/12/atlas-network-vilifying-climate-protestors/

Earlier this year, news footage began making the rounds on social media of young activists from the German climate organization Letzte Generation (Last Generation) being assaulted by their fellow citizens as they obstructed streets in an effort to draw attention to the German government’s inaction on climate. A young woman, with her hand glued to a road was ripped off the road by her hair; a young man was run over by a truck driver; a passerby punched the protestors and was cheered on. A few months later, German police raided the homes of Last Generation activists and seized their bank accounts.

It all seemed like a gross overreaction to a pretty tame form of protest…

Wenn ein Volk von 84 Millionen Menschen nicht einmal 50.000 Unterschriften unter eine Petition bekommt, seine ohnehin absurd niedrigen Klimaschutzziele aufrechtzuerhalten, braucht sich hier wirklich niemand mehr zu beschweren, dass die Regierung diese auch weiterhin konsequent und mit Vollgas gegen die Wand fährt.

Ja. Ich bin auch frustriert und sauer.
Aber vielleicht ist das auch nur hier auf Mastodon kursiert und - ach, ich weiß es auch nicht.

Wie funktioniert dieses bookwyrm Ding? 😇

Du suchst Dir eine Instanz aus, meldest Dich an und kannst dann Deine bereits gelesenen Bücher eintragen oder auch von Goodreads importieren.

Die Datenbasis ist natürlich nicht so groß wie bei Goodreads, aber ich finde dennoch ab und an Empfehlungen dort. GR benutze ich zusätzlich zur Suche.

Ufff...

Vorab: ich mag die Bücher des Autors sehr, auch wenn ich ihn erst kürzlich entdeckt habe.

Der erste Band von "Paradox" gefiel mir gut, aber Teil 2 zieht sich gerade wie Kaugummi. Ich werde das Hörbuch erstmal nach hinten stellen und mich "Janus" widmen.

Web Dev Help needed, Fedi!

I've been running the same PHP-based web game for fifteen years and haven't updated the way it sends emails (to let folks now about other players messaging them etc). I just do mail(); because I'm old-school like that.

My new web host blocks the port that sendmail uses to, well, send mail, by default. Do I want to raise a support ticket with them to unblock that port and carry on just going lol mail(); or is there some kind of new fancy state-of-the-art doohickey that'll relieve me from having to fiddle with sendmail ever again?

I've been admin'ing my own server for years and years and while I *can* do it, I'm really bloody *tired* of doing it tbh, and would much rather spend my time making cool new game features. :)

I suspect your time would be better spent just... paying somebody to host mail for your domain. But I don't have any recommendations for a service that'd work best for what you're doing, sorry.

I love fastmail for my personal mail. And I do have bits and pieces that send automated mail via authenticated SMTP through them. But not sure if that's the best fit for you.

If your provider blocks outbound port 25 (SMTP), they should be providing an outbound relay for you - i.e. you send your mail to their mail server, and it takes care of sending it on to the rest of the world.

If they don't do this, and won't unblock you, you may be able to find a host that will act as this outbound relay but accepts mail on a non-blocked port - 587 and 465 are typical.

Mail guy here :)
