A scenic landscape photo shows a vibrant blue sea with clear blue sky, on the right is a white blooming cherry tree.

View from a cliff looking down over calm blue water, with pine trees and a white-blossoming tree in the foreground. A boat leaves is visable trail and is seen in between the trees.

Several jellyfish floating near the surface of the sea.

Summer preview and some nice seaside vibes - always clears my head.

The Death of Spotify: Why Streaming is Minutes Away From Being Obsolete Jimmy Iovine just called the Death of Spotify. He might be right.

Amazing points here. As a music collector, I can only say that hunting for vinyl and browsing new releases on Bandcamp can bring magic back to music discovery. Artists also get far more than on those streaming platforms. Win‑win.

Decided to spin up #Linux ( #Fedora #KDE) on my wife's old Mac. It's a #MacBook Pro 15 from 2014. It was abandoned by Apple, getting no updates and was running super slow. But an i7 and 16GB of RAM sounded plenty to me. Turns out, it now runs and feels snappier than my MacBook Pro from 2019. 🚀

Signal Configuration and Hardening Guide This guide details actions you can take to configure and harden Signal in accordance with your threat model.

A thorough (though slightly dated) article on hardening Signal and adjusting phone settings by @privacyguides.org (www.privacyguides.org/articles/202...) can be an excellent starting point. They also mention an enhanced fork of Signal, Molly (molly.im), which some people might find useful. #privacy

During the AWS outage, Eight Sleep mattresses went rogue 🛌

They woke people up with flashing lights, cranked heat to high levels, and locked into upright positions.

Welcome to 2025, where your subscription mattress freaks out because servers went down.

Open Innovation & Open Source @ Schleswig-Holstein YouTube video by Siemens Knowledge Hub

Schleswig‑Holstein’s digital minister reveals why open‑source migration matters: vendor lock‑in threatens security, change‑management—not tech—is the real hurdle, budgets shift from licences to dev/training, and open standards like ODF trump any single app. #OpenSource
