Hey, It’s super cold inside my appartment so I’m taking the opportunity to get my Christmas cards out and getting ready for the week! Lots to do! Staying warm, trying to stay healthy. Supposed to warm up Tuesday. 🥶 That reminds me I wanted to a survey for the best thermals. I’m supposed to order three pair of thermals ultralight ultra warm.
@AAKL it is perhaps a little known fact about me that when I was much younger, I was a gym rat. I was spending about five hours per day six or seven days a week in the gym split between early morning and afternoon sessions. I really miss that feeling.
I dont have a gym that is both close enough -and- affordable enough, that I could actually make it work. Inevitably the distance or the cost gets to me.
today was a little better than yesterday. Also, the gym didn’t feel nearly as crowded. I don’t know if that’s because today is a workday and it’s only us unemployed bums hanging out during the day.
Heute war ja der erste #diday und Teil der Idee ist es ja Leute ins #Fediverse zu bekommen. Wir wissen alle, dass das Fediverse groß, unübersichtlich und einschüchternd seit kann.
Eine hervorragende Reihe von Veranstaltungen auf denen man mal "dumme Fragen" stellen kann (keine Bange, die gibt es nicht) firmieren under dem Hashtag #FediTreff - gibt es über ganz Deutschland und die Welt verteilt. Dezentrale Stammtische um über das Fediverse zu schnacken.
Morgen ist es in #Berlin wieder so weit. Da treffen wir uns jeden 1. Montag im Monat auf der @c-base e.V. ab 19 Uhr. Kommt gerne vorbei wenn ihr #NeuHier seit oder jemanden kennt der noch Fragen zum Fediverse klären will, bevor der DiDay im Social Media Bereich angegangen wird.
Pediatric healthcare workers: "We can't wear masks because it's so, so, so important babies see our faces, even if it exposes them to dangerous viruses."
STUDY: "Findings suggest that masked and unmasked static faces equally attract newborns' attention and that surgical masks do not disrupt their face configuration processing."
Medical professionals need to start admitting they're just being selfish, not altruistic, by not masking around at-risk patients.
Ma no, l'esercito europeo non serve. E poi, vogliamo far guadagnare la lobby delle armi!? La soluzione è ascoltare le rimostranze dell'invasore e poi mettersi a 90 gradi. Per fortuna (quelli che hanno combattuto per la libertà tra) i nostri nonni non ci sono più
Con il mondo che va a rotoli perché l'umanità ha eletto (o lasciato arrivare) delle incommensurabili teste di C nei posti chiave, mi rifiuto di lasciarmi davvero prendere dallo sconforto. Ognuno resiste come può, tiene insieme i pezzi di quello che ha costruito di sé con la colla che ha e che reputa più adatta. La mia risposta è: progettare. Occupare la mente con qualcosa che ha ordine e funzione. Questo perché non ho potere. Ma ho occhi e coscienza.

I seem to have cornfused many people yesterday, so to clear the air:
Yes, I know that last year was the first time FIFA ever gave out this award
Yes, I am aware that it was invented and awarded by the head of FIFA to curry favor with Trump, who was still in shock that he was passed over for the Nobel Prize
Yes, I’m aware that the main thing this award represents is corruption.
And let's not neglect to mention Jesus's sparkling blue eyes and flowing golden curls, the awe-inspiring effect of which proved instrumental to soccer's original explosive popularity.
Ohio is too hilly for soccer. Soccer was invented by the Church of Latter Day Saints, literally in salt fly in the state of Utah, so LDS missionaries could use soccer to spread the word of Jesus to foreign countries.
Back when Twitter was still a thing there was this account named « Team premier degré » which humorously reacted to various things « at face value » (which is a loose translation of « premier degré »). It’s somehow not as funny when people do it unironically. Still kinda funny though.

Exploring Nintendo 64DD Code Remnants in Ocarina of Time
What if you took a Nintendo 64 cartridge-based game and allowed it to also use a large capacity magnetic disc format alongside it? This was the premise of the Nintendo 64DD peripheral, and the topic of a recent video by [Skawo] in which an archaeological code dig is performed to see what traces of the abandoned product may remain.
The 64DD slots into the bottom of the console where the peripheral connector is located, following which the console can read and write the magnetic discs of the 64DD. At 64 MB it matched the cartridge in storage capacity, while also being writable unlike cartridges or CDs. It followed on previous formats like the Famicom Disk System.
For 1998’s Game of the Year title The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time such a 64DD-based expansion was worked on for a while before being cancelled along with the 64DD. With this Zelda game now decompiled, its source code has shown to be still full of 64DD-related code that [Skawo] takes us through in the video.
The Nintendo 64DD discs resembled ZIP discs. (Credit: Evan-Amos, Wikimedia) As is typical for CD- and magnetic storage formats like these 64DD discs, their access times and transfer speeds are atrociously slow next to a cartridge’s mask ROM, which clearly left the developers scrambling to find some way to use the 64DD as an actual enhancement. Considering that the 64DD never was released outside of Japan and had a very short life, it would seem apparent that, barring PlayStation-level compromises, disc formats just weren’t a good match for the console.
The interface with the 64DD in the game’s code gives some idea of what the developers had in mind, which mostly consisted out of swapping on-cartridge resources like dungeon maps with different ones. Ultimately this content did make its way into a commercial release, in the form of the Master Quest option on the game’s re-release on the GameCube.
Although this doesn’t enable features once envisioned, such as tracking the player’s entire route and storing permanent map changes during gameplay, it at least gives us a glimpse of what the expansion game on the 64DD could have looked like.

Are We Ready for AR Smart Glasses Yet?
In a recent article from IEEE Spectrum, [Alfred Poor] asks the question what do consumers really want in smart glasses? And are you finally ready to hang a computer screen on your face?
[Alfred] says that since Google Glass was introduced in 2012, smart glasses haven’t yet found their compelling use-case. Apparently it looks like while virtual reality (VR) might be out, augmented reality (AR) might be in. And of course now we have higher levels of “AI” in the mix, whatever that means.
According to the article in the present day there are two competing visions of what smart glasses might be: we have One Pro from Xreal in Beijing, and AI Glasses from Halliday in Singapore, each representing different design concepts evolving in today’s market. The article goes into further detail. The video below the break is promotional material from Halliday showing people’s reactions to their AI Glasses product.
[Alfred] talks with Louis Rosenberg, CEO and chief scientist of Unanimous AI, who says he believes “that within five years, immersive AI-powered glasses will replace the smartphone as the primary mobile device in our digital lives.” Predicting the future is hard, but what do you think?

Non trascrivo nemmeno il link; dovrei citare youtube e qualche ritrosia ce l'ho...😎 Ma andatevi a cercare il discorso di Natalino Balasso in occasione del capodanno 2025/2026. Vale millemila pronunciamenti di vecchi tromboni e nuovi cittadini digitali elettrificati con la sindrome da AI e da pompa di calore (speriamo solo di calore).

Was mich ja fasziniert ist, dass in ERP-Systemen, wie z. B.

Nach kakaohaltiger Fettglasur kommt nun also kakaofreie Schokoladenalternative. Achtet da mal drauf falls euer nächstes Schokomüsli komisch schmecken sollte.
Im Gegensatz zu "Analogkäse" wird ChoViva eigentlich recht aktiv beworben als eine Schokoladenalternative, die einen geringeren CO2-Footprint hat. Dementsprechend denke ich nicht, dass da versucht wird, etwas billigeres unterzuschieben.
Bei Penny gibt es übrigens auch ChoViva-Tafeln, die recht ordentlich schmecken, finde ich.

There is a document you need to read to understand 20 years of secret warfare by the United States against Venezuela: this US diplomatic cable revealed by #JA and #WikiLeaks on the infiltration of civil society in #Venezuela is a must read:
Everyone should read this cable indeed, thanks for sharing it.
This type of interference, destabilization, regime change operations is a recurring part of the US playbook, yet most people ignore it, or dismiss it as conspiracy. This leak puts it black on white.
Back then (2006) the US funded NGOs to divide, discredit, destabilize, “re-educate”. Today they have immensely more powerful and terrifying tools: social media + big data.
I felt ashamed and deeply uncomfortable at the words of our Italian PM #Meloni, who legitimizes #Trump's coup in #Venezuela: not even #Nixon acted that way with the #CIA-aided coup in #Chile
same feeling in France. I hardly listen to the french news but even like this i heard that our président says like it is Ok, none of his concern. Like coward they think they'd better go in the wind of US. This is not politics as noble as it should. Nevertheless Dominic De Villepin made a statement i am more likely to support.
c'è un documento che dovete leggere per capire 20 anni di guerra segreta degli Stati Uniti contro il #Venezuela: questo cablo della diplomazia USA rivelato da #JA e #WikiLeaks sull'infiltrazione della società civile in funzione anti-#Chavez
ho provato vergogna e profondo disagio per le parole del nostro primo ministro #Meloni che legittima il colpo di Stato di #Trump in #Venezuela,colpo di stato condotto con una sfrontatezza che manco #Nixon con il #Cile
le parole usate per riferire fatti sono tutto: come fa notare la giornalista australiana Mary Kostakidis, #Maduro non è stato *catturato*,è stato RAPITO:quello contro il #Venezuela è un regime change,un colpo di stato con #rendition di un capo di stato
complimenti a #ReportRAI3 per scoop su intervento di ex operativi dei servizi segreti israeliani nel processo al miliardario #StephanSchmidheiny per la strage degli operai dell'amianto.
per me tutto era iniziato 10 anni fa,quando una fonte mi disse che in questo caso giudiziario di poveri #operai sterminati da un cancro terribile - il mesotelioma da #amianto della #Eternit di #StephanSchmidheiny - c'era un livello molto più alto

Non abbiamo cambiato quasi nulla, ma abbiamo piuttosto messo un po' di ordine; abbiamo solo aggiunto la regola di convivenza tra istanze:
Federazione: è vietato accusare o attaccare le altre istanze e i loro amministratori; se hai problemi con un'istanza parlane con il tuo amministratore, ma per il bene del Fediverso i rapporti tra le istanze devono essere risolti tra gli amministratori
Questo è dovuto al fatto che troppo spesso le polemiche prodotte dagli ex utenti di un'istanza possono diventare oltre che moleste, un punto di vulnerabilità per tutto il Fediverso.
Poliversity è una comunità dedicata alla ricerca scientifica e al giornalismo, all'università e all'istruzione ed è nata per promuovere il diritto alla conoscenza e la corretta informazione
Gli amministratori possono decidere il bando di un utente in qualsiasi momento e senza esplicitarne le motivazioni perché hanno il diritto e il dovere di tutelare sé stessi, la serenità dell'istanza e la felicità degli utenti.
Rispetto: il confronto tra utenti deve essere rispettoso e non sprezzante né ostile. Ricorda che esistono persone con sensibilità diverse dalla tua e che questa è una bacheca pubblica
Accessibilità: descrivi immagini e video con la funzione di testo alternativo: c'è chi non può vederle
Divieti: sono vietati fascismo, razzismo, sessismo, omofobia, transfobia, abilismo, trolling, body shaming, doxxing, impersonificazione, molestie, risposte criptiche o allusive, spam, vendite, fake news, propaganda di potenze straniere; messaggi disturbanti solo con CW attivato

Politica linguistica: poliversity è un'istanza italiana: se pensi di scrivere solo in lingue diverse dall'italiano e dall'esperanto, poliversity non è l'istanza che fa per te.
Politica sui link: non linkare i social commerciali né i siti con troppa pubblicità; non pubblicare post con link senza una descrizione della pagina linkata; limita i collegamenti abbreviati: bit.ly, goo.gl, lnkd.in, etc!
Politica sui bot: vogliamo interazioni vere; gli utenti che non si presentano saranno eliminati. Le pubblicazioni automatizzate sono accettate solo se presidiate. Gli utenti che non accedono a Poliversity da più di sei mesi potranno essere eliminati senza preavviso
Politica sull'età: il Fediverso è anonimo e noi non vogliamo sapere la tua età ma NON PUOI ISCRIVERTI A QUESTO SERVER SE NON HAI COMPIUTO I 16 ANNI e se a nostro insindacabile giudizio dimostri meno di 16 anni, sospenderemo il tuo account
