  • Is there a way out?

  • I don't know if first authorship needs to go away. I've definitely been 2nd or 3rd author for a few days of work (as compared to months of work for the first author).

    You can give detailed attribution (many papers require them nowadays), but no-one ever reads them.

  • Bye bye Garmin, hello Polar (from Finland)

    Jump

  • Polar is not supported by Gadgetbridge (yet?), you can find the supported devices here.

    Normally I would advice Bangle.js, but it is not great for swimming.

  • Kagi search engine now has a Fediverse search option.

    Jump

  • In the order of 40000 people, so pretty tiny compared to the big search engines.

  • Very nice. I hope the cox realizes 5 is off-pace.

  • No beans, only dogs

    Jump

  • A candidate for genuinely Dutch hot dog-like food are maybe broodjes rookworst:

    Or maybe even worstenbroodjes, now that I think of it...

  • Poorly-named affliction

    Jump

  • The WHO discourages this because people will start associating the name with the disease. Which sucks if you happen to have this name. See Tourette's, or Chagas disease.

    You can read a bit about it here.

  • Volkswagen has been collecting geolocation data from their smart cars, which were accidentally made public

    Jump

  • Post your setup. no matter how uggo

    Jump

  • This is how I started in a tiny room. I am not proud, but maybe good to show between all the shiny things here.

  • tall, dark & handsome

    Jump

  • Unfortunately there are many counterexamples, large animals that live long in the wild tend to have shorter lives in zoos, like elephants, hippos, and monkeys.

  • E Ink faces growing competition in the "paper-like" display space - Liliputing

    Jump

  • It is nice, but not e-ink

  • Arch users trying to print files

    Jump

  • My personal printer works flawlessly on Linux, except that it cannot be convinced to print double-sided, no matter how deep I dig into the settings. Boils my blood.

  • Too many tourists?

    Jump

  • You may be surprised to learn that not all inhabitants of a city work in the tourism industry.

  • I'm connected to my new hotspot. What does this number 6 mean? This is the first time I've ever seen a number associated with any Wi-Fi notification.

    Jump

  • Most consumers are familiar with the 802.11 standards

    Lol, no. Not in any way.

  • "Pipe"

    Jump

  • Ceci n'est pas perdu

  • welp ...

    Jump

  • https://filebrowser.org/ just exposes a filesystem you point it at. Never had problems wit this. For syncing you can use syncthing.

  • Dutch privacy watchdog recommends government organisations stop using Facebook

  • Anyone have an recent example of FDC Willard being thanked in a paper? I couldn't find any, sadly

  • Public Broadcasters of Europe, Let's All Join Mastodon!

    Jump

  • It's October, soon we'll switch to winter time. Does anybody know what happened to the suggestion to remove it?

    Jump

  • Aweful idea: do you want to plan a meeting at 16:00 with colleagues in the US? It is very hard to tell if this makes sense without timezones. Is this in their working day? Or the equivalent of midnight? Or something else? There are no timezones, so there is no way of telling without looking at some shady website how many hours you are shifted - which is basically the concept of timezones anyway, but shittier.
