Behold, the oyster mushroom. This small colony grows just next to our terrace, eating the oakwood that frames the flowerbed. We do allow it, since oyster mushrooms can get real big, but remain firm and tasty.

Source-available proprietary software has been delivering its users look-but-don't-touch lock-in since at least 2004 when the Wikipedia page was written. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-a

It is only appearing popular now because so many businesses have succeeded leveraging open source and now have business pressure to progress to the end of the rights-ratchet. Relicensing old versions on a timer adds nothing if the code is actively developed.

Zginął żubr. Puszcza nie może być traktowana jak poligon wojskowy

"12 listopada w Puszczy Białowieskiej pędząca przez wieś wojskowa ciężarówka rozjechała żubra – gatunek ściśle chroniony i symbol Puszczy. To kwintesencja szkód, jakie wojsko wyrządziło w tym unikatowym ekosystemie w ciągu dwóch lat kryzysu migracyjnego na granicy z Białorusią"

When you put the wide angle lens on your camera you're practically guaranteed to see otters swimming close to you 🤨 . They were unhappy to see me but it likely saved the life of a small duck who took off before she saw the otters.
Heavily cropped.

Story from CBC news: "Why dozens of street lights on 2 major Calgary roads are turning blue (or purple)" cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/blu

This further reinforces my opinion that many or most politicians and city managers don't care about how effective lighting is or what light looks like, they only care about whether it is "on" or "off".

And it's a good time for a periodic reminder that highways in Germany are generally not illuminated.

Millions of UK households forced to unplug fridge or freezer amid rising bills

> Families resorting to ‘desperate measures’ and struggling with ‘frightening’ level of hardship amid cost of living crisis

When I was 11, we finally had enough money for a fridge.

At least the good times lasted 60 years. Now the rich have taken it all back.

Konto założyłem tutaj 7 listopada 2022, a równo rok temu w pamiętniczku zapisałem: "Kilka sensownych rozmów na Mastodonie, może coś z tego serwera będzie."

No i chyba jest.

Potrzebujemy więcej takich ludzi jak Sebastian Wiśniewski.

Polowanie blisko dużego osiedla, wśród spacerowiczów. Oczywiście w pełni legalne i bezpieczne.
Sorry, ale tragedia jest tylko kwestią czasu - szanowni myśliwi nie odróżniają rowerzysty od dzika

OBECNIE SPRAWDZAM JAKA JEST KARA UMOWNA, A WY MI NOWĄ UMOWĘ TRZY MIESIĄCE PO PRZEDŁUŻENIU OSTATNIEJ PROPONUJECIE? JAK WYSOKI JEST CHUJ, Z KTÓREGO WASI MARKETINGOWCY SPADLI, VARSO TOWER CZY JUŻ MUSIMY ROZPATRYWAĆ BUDOWLE W EMIRATACH?

Still perplexed about the large number of people from Germany and Austria who confuse "never again" with "never again but if this one country does it it's fine".

This is really personal for me having grown up in Austria (and having had actual Nazi grandparents) and I don't understand it.

Israeli politicians are using the exact same tone and language when talking about Palestinians as my grandfather did when talking about Jewish people. It's heartbreaking to have to hear this garbage again.
