Volunteered at our local repair cafe today. I fixed an RC car and an amplifer, and helped diagnose an LED christmas tree.

Couldn't take pictures of the whole space, but here's my little workstation with my tools. There were 8 volunteers and about twice as many visitors, so it wasn't too stressful.

I definitely plan to volunteer again, once the organizer gets the next date picked out!

Court séjour prévu au Royaume-Uni d'ici juin, je dois demander un #passeport. C'est une première demande. Vous savez quels sont les délais pour ce genre de document ?

Running out of meds, put off some scans. US medical is a racket + the out of pocket is steep. Help me stay functional, please. 220 more for meds, 200 for scans.

I am looking for an #alternative to MS 365 email. Partner support is required. The data can be in the cloud, but it must be compatible with the desktop client. In addition, the client must be Linux. Which provider can I consider with over 1200 users? Next is to replace Teams and Office and switch to a Linux desktop

The whole thing is planned as a test first. A small introduction should be possible with the solution
Which provider should I contact?

Oye gente que usa Bookwyrm, he importado mis libros desde Goodreads y ahora me marca uno de los libros que he leído repetido en el reto de lectura, por lo que me marca uno más de lo que he leído realmente

He ido manualmente a quitar la edición que sobraba (en teoría), pero no se va y no sé por qué

He quitado la edición que sobraba de mi biblioteca y todo

I wake up to find the default App Center disappeared from my Ubuntu 24.10 installation and was replaced by the "old" Ubuntu Snap Store. Anyone else? How to fix this?

I can't deal with this weirdly artificial 500 character limit any more, so sadly, I am going to have to move instances.

Recommendations for a new server, and what should I watch out for doing the move over?

I just got this in my notifications after posting a link to YouTube (now deleted)

Dans ma commune, un chouette groupe de personnes a un projet encore plus chouette : ouvrir un magasin de producteurs. Autant vous dire que nous avons trop hâte !
Pour constituer leur dossier, avancer sur leur prévisionnel ou se projeter sur des demandes de financement... ils cherchent des données démographiques pertinentes. Conso, revenus, peut-être mobilités. Ça vous fait penser à des jeux de données en particulier ? Envoyez-moi ça ! Merci d'avance pour eux (et pour nous, quoi)

Hi , need advice! #help /H

Python or ...

I'm looking for a customizable #tool for "massive" #linguistic #searches on the #Internet capable of #generating #lexical #associations.
eg:
#INPUT (me): Musk
#OUTPUT (tool): Elon, Tesla, DOGE, Space X, X, Swasticar, Fellony, ...
in #trees #DB and giving the #frequency / #Stats of #use for #web #publication and future #referencing.

#Python you might say... but I'm not a #computer #scientist.

Is anyone else struggling with the following severe and dangerous dilemma:

Precedent:

People have treated me like crap my whole life

Result:

I don't do anything to support People... no protests, no climate change research, mostly no charity, etc.

I am not trying to sound like an asshat, but I feel as though I need a better perspective.

Why?

Because intentially keeping your talents away from problems feels dark, terminally cynical.

Decided to *try* to install #linuxmint on my laptop to replace windows 10. I've hit a wall and I need #help.
Any kind souls care to help me #troubleshoot this?

I'm currently working on 2 investigations, focusing on water issues. One in Brittany, the other in North and North-East Syria.

Broadly speaking, this consists of two key strands:
- R&D of tools and methodologies
- Fieldwork, interviews, data, publications

everything is under free licence. This should take between ~ 6 and 12 months of work.

I'm in financial difficulties.

I have 2 options:
- To receive your donations in money (just to illustrate: 3000 € would allow me to work 2 months and a bit more)

current: 23.16 € per week
minimum Goal: 81.00 € per week

(If you work on the board of a charity foundation, we can also have a chat.)

OR second option,
I'm leaving these 2 investigations aside, probably in the archives and abandoned. And I go back to the factory to do food work.

I've got to make a decision this week.

Update: I received one single donation 20 €

sto smanettando con #yunohost e il #selfhosting (per hobby, niente di chissà che) ma ho due problemi che non riesco a risolvere per cui, se ci fosse qualche anima pia che volesse darmi una mano sarà ricompensato da tanto karma positivo nella vita.

- mi serve un SMTP relay per aggirare il problema del blocco dell'ISP;
- vorrei installare un container docker che però non è compreso nello "store" di yunohost e di cui non ho l'indirizzo git ma solo quello del container...

How to do CPR if you witness a cardiac arrest.

If possible, call an ambulance first.

Yet another step in my #degoogle path where I need some #help: Android TV.

Use case: I have a non-smart TV that I plan to use but not as my main TV. I want to make it smart, but as budget as possible*.

Any Android TV stick that is not Google nor Amazon, is cheap and works nicely**?

I basically want to use two apps: Plex and SmartTube.

*Searching I only find big boxes over 200eur, not what I would like.

**No need top perfomance, but I have seen some WebOS in top TVs being sooooo slow... I'd just like something that does not put me on my nerves :D
