Dani is heading off on a test flight to SPACE! And all kinds of things go wrong! Can the Rescue Bots help her before she crashes into the MOON? Can Blades get a grip on his attachment issues and accept her taking a full-time test pilot job? And when did Kade get so weird? Join us this week for "To Infinity... And Back"!
"Paris has closed more than 100 streets to motor vehicles, tripled parking fees for SUVs, removed roughly 50,000 parking spots, and constructed more than 1,300 kilometers of bike lanes since Mayor Anne Hidalgo took office in 2014. Those changes have contributed to a 40% decline in air pollution..."
J'ai dévoré d'une traite ce #podcast sur la place des femmes chez les chef-fes d'orchestre... Ça m'a rappelé quand j'apprenais la trompette ado et qu'un des profs du conservatoire "refusait les filles dans son cours" sans avoir à donner d'explications.
Injustices: Le Bémol 1/5 : Circulez, y’a rien à voir
Any other let’s plays that also publish their work as a podcast so I don’t have to hack a method of turning YouTube channels into podcasts? I know about gorillas play through but I’m looking for others. I turn all YouTube channels into podcasts anyway to avoid the ads and other cruff, but anything on #PeerTube? #Gaming#Games#YouTube#Podcasts#Podcast
Canadian legend Jann Arden loves Flipboard! Here's a clip of her talking on her podcast about how she's using it to plan her mudlarking trip to the U.K.
Big thanks to @aetataureate for putting me onto Primer! First season is covering #CityPop and I’m already loving it. I’m not super deep in the genre so it’s nice to have yet another source to learn of some songs and artists from.
A brief news segment with mostly good stuff from Mozilla and KDE. Plus some great discoveries including downloading YouTube and other videos, processing data and CSV files on the command line, controlling cycling workout gear and graphing your progress, and a top tip for following Mastodon accounts in a normal RSS feed reader.
Social media allow you to find thousands of friends, many more than evolution has equipped us for. What are the consequences of being in touch with more people than you can hope to meet? It’s “Post Social Media” on Big Picture Science.
💾 NEW PODCAST! 💾 We had a look at Empire, originally developed by Walter Bright in the 1970s for the PDP-10, and later released for various systems, including MS-DOS with 1987's Empire: Wargame of the Century, and 1993's Empire: Deluxe.
This is a very early example of a turn-based strategy wargame, and one that would have a big influence on the genre. Sid Meier among others has mentioned Empire is a big inspiration for Civilization.
Samsung is facing a labor strike for the first time ever. Apple is union busting. The FCC cancelled its affordable internet program. AI is all the rage with investors, but no one is using it.
Android trackers are FINALLY here! And, we should chat announcements at Computex!
There are a lot of companies and ideas competing for space on the post-Twitter internet, and Jay makes a convincing argument that decentralization — the idea that you should be able to take your username and following to different servers as you wish — is the future. It’s a powerful concept that’s been kicking around for a long time, but now it feels closer to reality than ever before. You’ve heard us talk about it a lot on Decoder: the core idea is that no single company — or individual billionaire — can amass too much power and control over our social networks and the conversations that happen on them.
There are quite some reasons that leave me very cautious about Bluesky, one being for sure the fact there's one commercial entity currently backing this service / protocol, especially one that has risen from the same ecosystem that caused a lot of the trouble we do experience with current social media platforms. But, I've then and now been at odds with ActivityPub as a protocol, which gets worse the more I dig into it, and from that perspective, it seems the AT crowd gets a lot of things right, considered a lot of things that don't just seem obvious at least in the 2010s but actually surprising to see them missing from ActivityPub, a spec that has been established at roughly the same time: Full account portability (the idea of comparing personal data, conversations, comments, posts, ... to a github repository which "of course" you want to easily be able to take, backup, move around, ... seems both stunning and painfully trivial), support of custom domains for users (which Tumblr has already been supporting for years now), distributed curation and moderation (because most obviously community structures will be different to server or domain structures and not necessarily live on one instance exclusively) - in a way I really do hope they "show don't tell" by submitting that protocol to some standardization body anytime soon. Maybe this, too, could provide a good option for the "open" fediverse to counter the problems that might arise the very moment platforms like Meta / Threads fully embrace ActivityPub. (I also found it rather interesting to listen to what she had to say about why Meta might be more into ActivityPub than AT - being "server-centric" rather than "user-centric" - but that might just be a loose end of things.)
I'm not a podcast person but if I was, I would totally be listening to ADHD: Women Exploring the Neuroverse by Rachael Massey. The podcast specifically focuses on late diagnosed women and they have some spectacular guests too.
Diese ganzen mehrstündigen Laberpodcasts, hört die tatsächlich jemand? Mich macht es ja wahnsinnig so ein paar Menschen zuzuhören die sich für wahnsinnig witzig und toll halten und sich null auf das Thema vorbereitet haben, sich dafür permanent gegenseitig ins Wort fallen und Anekdoten erzählen die nichts mit dem Thema zu tun haben.
Der letzte große Reinfall war "SWR1 Meilensteine - Alben, die Geschichte machten. Ich interessiere mich ja schon für Musik und habe mir gedacht, das ist bestimmt interessant mal etwas zu den Hintergründen einiger Musikalben zu hören ... selten so einen Mist von selbstverliebten Schnackern gehört, besonders der Kerl ist kaum zu ertragen ...
Aber da ich ja nicht nur nörgeln möchte, hier mal die Liste mit #Podcast die mir gefallen:
#Sternengeschichten von @astrodicticum, ein Podcast von jemandem der sich auskennt und vorbereitet hat, mit Episoden die maximal 15 Minuten dauern. Eine absolute Empfehlung
Geschichten aus der Geschichte - selten länger als eine Stunde, die beiden haben sich gut vorbereitet und es sind interessante Geschichten.
Das Universum - Gut, es wird auch gelabert und eigentlich ist er mir zu lang, aber sie wissen wovon sie sprechen und haben sich vorbereitet (wirkt zumindest meist so :wink: )
Das Klima - Für mich auch ein bisschen zu lange Episoden aber auch kein belangloses gelaber.
Nachgefragt
Antritt - Der Fahrradpodcast: Meist interessante Themen die mich interessieren. Höre ich aber nicht regelmäßig.
Früher habe ich ja auch #Hoaxilla regelmäßig gehört, aber irgendwie haben die auch nachgelassen, zumindest mir gefällt es nicht mehr.
We look at OpenShift from an external perspective, including how it works in a multi-cloud environment, how it abstracts cloud resources, when administrators and developers still need to understand what is happening beneath the abstraction, combining OpenShift with cloud-managed services, some of the downsides of OpenShift, and where people should start if they want to learn.
