@lynnesbian@fedi.lynnesbian.spaceLynnesbian The theater company/Youtube group Team Starkid is a cult, according to 2013 Tumblr. Once you watch all of their musicals you get inducted into the cult.

9 years later, during a concert tour,
Jaime Lyn Beatty actually said "we're a cult" in reference to it.

Mailo 🇫🇷 is a French e-mail provider that has a version of its e-mail service specially designed for children. It is called Mailo Junior and it's a safe and educational email service for children aged 6-14. 🧒 👧

Parents are able to monitor their children's address books and children will only be able to exchange emails with their parent-approved correspondents.

No advertising, no tracking, no profiling - just like an email service should be for everyone!

Mailo Junior offers two different interfaces. The Mini is perfect for kids aged 6 to 9, with basic features. And for those aged 10 to 14, the Junior interface is the way to go, with more features such as a calendar and virtual disc.

Later, the child's account can be upgraded to the standard Mailo, so they can keep their own address.

And most importantly: kids can email Santa directly from Mailo! 🎅 How does it work? Parents receive their child's message to Santa Claus and then instruct Santa's helpers to create a personalised message just for their child. 🎄 (well, sadly this feature is currently only available in French 🇫🇷) (Conditions: https://perenoel.mailo.com/mailo/fr/bureau-du-pere-noel.php)

The data is stored in France, at Ecritel (https://www.ecritel.fr).

think the time has come that i will migrate my “big remote server” from netcup to hetzner and go back to a “slim custom gentoo host with containers” instead of the proxmox-lxc mess that it is right now

I've moved here from https://fosstodon.org/@alanc and before that at https://twitter.com/alanc - you can find my previous posts there.

I'm currently a Senior Software Architect working on the #Solaris operating system at Oracle. I came up through the X11 & Desktop teams, and am still involved with packaging X11 & GNOME for Solaris, along with our overall FOSS packaging efforts.

I've been a board member & release manager for the X.Org Foundation as well, and still do many of X.Org's package releases & co-lead its security team.

I also am the Security Assurance Lead for Solaris, overseeing our efforts to prevent & fix security bugs in our software.

My professional interests not surprisingly include software security and how to improve it, C programming (and how to do better at it when we can't move away), interoperability (including improvements to the C & POSIX standards), and working with open source communities.

All day every day with these guys.

The rapid collapse of freedoms in Hong Kong should be a warning for Taiwan, writes John Cheng

"Taiwan’s civil society is resilient — but resilience is not immunity. The only sure way to preserve democracy is this: Do not be taken over by the CCP."

Let’s be absolutely clear: the President of the United States just went on national television and said “I don’t know” when asked if he’s required to uphold the Constitution. That’s not a paraphrase. That’s a direct quote. The man who took the oath of office with a hand on the Bible and the other presumably on a Big Mac has now openly admitted he has no idea what that oath actually means. - Closer To The Edge

昨日は大阪市平野区の大念仏寺を訪ねました

大念仏寺では毎年5月1日から5日まで、万部おねりが行われます。おねり(練供養)とは、人間の死後に阿弥陀如来と二十五菩薩が西方浄土から迎えに来てくれる様子を、菩薩に扮した人が練り歩き立体的に再現してみせる行事です

今年は本堂改修中のため、屋外で簡易版の【六菩薩による伝供式】が行われました

My #EveOnline account is going to be old enough to vote in a few months...

one thing the internet has largely diminished is the abundance of completely baseless advice you used to get. your mum would tell you "wait an hour before swimming or you'll get cramps" or "if someone has the hiccups, shout 'boo!' and scare them to get rid of them" and you'd just believe it.

"hey dad, what do you do if you get a jellyfish sting?" "get someone to pee on it." "okay, thanks!" and then you just tuck that little nugget of wisdom away and repeat it when your friend asks you the same question seventeen years later.

do i still believe that the great wall of china is "the only man-made object visible from space?" of course not. does the phrase "visible from space" with no qualifications on distance or camera technology even mean anything? not really. but ask me to name things you can see from the moon and my immediate first instinct will always be to say the great wall of china.

I'm planning on hosting a discussion at PyCon US about the issues with the initial experience getting started with Python for brand new programmers, who may not intend to become programmers, but want to solve a problem with Python. I plan to discuss a few tools that may improve that experience, along with any gaps that still aren't addressed.

One of the tools I want to include is uv. I'm looking at the docs, and the sort of "getting started" bits of them are far more involved than I would want to provide in this situation. I'm unfamiliar with uv myself, so I'm unclear on what steps would make sense for the situation I've described. I'm hoping someone who is more familiar with it can help me with the specifics here. Basically, once installed, what basic steps are necessary to use uv to go from nothing, to having the latest Python installed, getting access to the REPL, writing my first basic Python script, and running that script?

I realise there are several "Getting started with uv" posts, but I'm looking for something vetted and reliable that speaks to the specific path I listed above. If you are knowledgeable here, and can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks so much!

#uv #python #learning

Note: Please do not send me a "getting started with uv" search link. My statement above covers why I'm not willing to rely on that with my limited knowledge.

I took a few sarcasm classes in high school and I can sort of follow along with a sarcastic movie without subtitles but no, I would not say I "speak fluent sarcasm"

Its a @pyconPyCon US 🎨 Day! Painting the ball python patterns on my wood carving (post wood hardener, pre walnut stain, & finish) and started carving my second.

Both carvings are available for auction at the #PyCon US PyLadies Auction.

What do you think the starting bid should be? 😉

@smallcircles🫧 socialcoding.. @jfredJonathan Frederickson @sandstorm Some of the big public grants are really interesting, but you also have to put a lot of work in just to get them, and they usually have tight expectations on how things are spent, how the work is laid out, deadlines, etc.

The biggest thing we got was the FundOSS thing that GitCoin and OSC did a few years back, but especially with the US being the US and Europe cutting back on some grant programs, I think the options are going to get worse, not better.

I DID IT!

@smallcircles🫧 socialcoding.. @jfredJonathan Frederickson @sandstorm It's really hard, in part because we need money and in part because everyone involved is also super busy and we need time. The upside is Sandstorm works really well with fairly little actual maintenance by design, but I die a little inside any time some project gets fifty times what we'd need to overhaul our whole platform despite being far more mediocre.
