Germany’s AfD is so extreme it was kicked out of the far-right grouping in the European Parliament last month, but Elon Musk thinks their policies “don’t sound extremist.” That’s because he’s also a fascist.

I got so much weight the last few months. I need to refocus on myself, and get back to a healthier lifestyle. At least, now I know I can do it.

In this week’s Disconnect Roundup, Elon Musk has a grand (techno)fix for water shortages that includes desalination plants powered by solar with battery storage. But he forgot poor countries can’t afford it. Plus, recommended reads, labor updates, and more!

I think this is very mixed today. I don’t know who are exactly, but I probably know most of them (maybe all) in person. Best way to get to know is to show up in one of the meetups or conferences (GStreamer Conf or FOSDEM).

Indeed it would be nice. I don’t know myself. I might ask in the next GStreamer Hackfest (at the end of this month). Maybe there could be a talk in the next GStreamer Conference. I don’t know the history myself.

I’m not sure you are aware. The person who helped create GStreamer also created Pipewire.

Lots of AV1 codec goodness landing into GStreamer for the upcoming releases. I might have had some influence on that. 🙃

Yeah, started in January. I do mostly Java, but I also write some Rust, Javascript, and Golang. I work in the live streaming backend. Specifically on the systems for multimedia processing for live broadcast. 😊

TFW you ship a feature by default with no way to disable it in products and pay no attention to the impact it may have in, say, a therapy session when a gesture is misparsed and triggers balloons or party lasers.

The Butlerian Jihad against “thinking machines” happened 10,000 years before Dune: “This is the literal, narrative reason for the purging of any use of the machines: People in this world felt an overreliance on such technology that inevitably changed how society functioned for the worse.”

I don’t think every drop I let would break it. But there was a specific drop that happened last month… I think I would have to buy a new phone. 🫠

Good point, I will try that. I just got some fake covers now. I am sure I would need to have upgraded my phone if I didn’t use a cover a few times a year 😅😂

Where do people buy official Apple covers for their “old” iPhones (3 years old)? It’s disappointing that Apple itself doesn’t sell them anymore.

The real AI threat isn’t intelligent machines wanting to oppress us; it’s governments and companies rolling it out against us. In the Disconnect Roundup, I discuss a plan to do just that in the UK. Plus, recommended reads, labor updates, and other news you might have missed!

So you can open the app? I tried to install but I can’t even see it in the App Store (iOS).

I wrote a blog post about all the social media related projects I've been working on this year, for Twitter, Mastodon and Bluesky (most of which I've open sourced), and my thoughts about those. I have a few more blog posts planned next, specifically about Bluesky :) (user/developer guides)

Last Wednesday evening Kris Nova had a climbing accident and died. All of us that loved her are heart broken and stunned.  She was an amazing person that lived out loud and built connection and community wherever she went.  She will be horribly missed.
