A friend is attending #GPN for the first time and he is trying to get started in the IT support industry in France.
Do you maybe have some tips for him or know cool queer friendly companies who are looking for people?
He isn't on fedi so he can't ask directly, I'll forward replies.
For all the video nerds out there who watched the #ESC and wondered how die video encoders of the TV stations handled the demoshow level visuals of the Swedish act at the beginning of the #esc2024, here a comparison:
Picture EBU feed from Malmö to the TV-Stations via DVB-S2 (1080i50 422 35mbit/s h264)
Picture ARD received via DVB-T2 (1080p50 6mbit/s h265)
Picture ORF1 HD received via DVB-S2 (720p50 10mbit/s h264)
Picture FM4 via ORF TV-Thek (720p25 2.8mbit/s h264)
@HackyScientress Was 1080i50 the actual production format, or is that already a downscaled version? I would have expected the world's largest live show to be produced in 2160p50 with some kind of HDR in 2024 ...
@tony@HackyScientress The source signal that was used for providing the German satellite signal ("Das Erste", broadcast in 720p50 because of reasons, don't get me started about that ...) was definitely 1080i. You could see the deinterlacing artifacts.
Weiß jemand vom wem diese Patches sind?
Den Patch hab ich im Chaosdorf in der Stickerbox gefunden letztes Jahr.
Ich hätte das Design gerne als Sticker. Ich kann's nachbauen aber falls jemand weiß von wem es ist wäre cool. Auch zum danke sagen für die coolen Patches.
I installed a fresh installation of Windows Server 2022, and right on the first boot it gives me an error that 6 Services are unable to start. Like WTF how is this a product they ship.
I almost exclusively work with Linux servers these days and I almost forgot how much of a shit show Microsoft is.
@HackyScientress
Congrats.
After seeing the tickets evaporate in the first two rounds I decided against it. Too many for too few tickets. I am sure you will have an awesome time tho!
I hate how widespread shitty DRM like iLok is in the music industry. I own a whole bunch of software that sadly uses iLok and when I think about how much money all of that software is worth at regular retail prices this shitty USB stick is probably worth more than its weight in gold.
But then can I even say that I own that software given that is uses DRM?
Don't buy anything from Haier or their subsidiaries Casarte, Leader, GE Appliances, Fisher & Paykel, Aqua and Candy.
They just hit the developer of the home assistant integration for their smart devices with a take down notice and are threatening legal action against them.
Wow Strg_F hat sich ja komplett disqualifiziert was jegliche Glaubwürdigkeit oder Seriosität angeht. Alter das was die da abgezogen haben und ihr Video wo sie sich "erklären", uff...
Das ist nicht nur unsauber recherchiert, das ist literally gezielte Falschinformationen.
@byteborg@HackyScientress@DerConsigliere ich hätte auch erwartet, dass da irgendeine Intendantin einschreitet und eine interne Untersuchung stattfindet. Nach (meinem) dem jetzigen Kenntnisstand ist StrgF dahingehend anscheinend autark
Well my #37c3 got cut short this year. Woke up stomach cramps and can't keep any food down. I can't sit or stay on my feet for longer than a couple minutes without getting nauseous. And on top of that I have really bad back pain since I had to vomit in the morning.
I sadly don't think that it will be much better tomorrow so that makes yesterday (day 2) my last day at congress.
Getting back home will be interesting.
Todos für morgen: Eigens f-droid repo für @c3nav bauen. Mal schauen ob ich es schaffe das komplette fertig und online zu haben noch bevor f-droid unsere App geupdated hat ^^ #37c3
Imagine you are working with someone who has a computer science degree. Said person one day adds a private-key without a passphrase to a git repo and a container. That key is used to access sensitiv data.
How do you explain to that person how shitty of an idea this is.
@HackyScientress "You know that the git history has your name for all eternity? You know the DPO, CTO, and CEO will know who leaked the access key? Are you sure you want to do that?"
