Apparently @Tutanota, has also been hit by similar attacks by the same group:

https://www.reddit.com/r/tutanota/comments/8ue539/looks_like_tutanota_is_down/

What their motive could be I don't know, but they seem to be picking targets that respect user privacy.

Do not eat the rich. All the toxins aggregate in the predators at the top of the food chain. Responsibly compost the rich

Please keep the bug reports and feedback coming so we can release a solid #Tusky 2.0 soon!

There are some really good public domain #eBooks out there, so I've done a simple little search page for finding them:

https://switching.social/public-domain-ebooks-search/

Give it a go if you're a fan of classic #literature or #historical #texts.

Feedback welcome.

You can see the list of sources on the search results page, let me know if there's a source you think should be added.

I've tried to focus on books, especially literature, rather than academic papers or general archives.

those slaves that work in mines then, they might have been working for your electronic device.

Someone keeps stealing from the workers

@WelshPixie Swamp coolers are useful, too, if you can afford the humidity. Put ice cubes in a bowl, set a fan to blow over the top of the bowl. Take advantage of water's high vaporization enthalpy. :)

(Cont) If you can, take a brief cold shower every few hours and really focus on those 'hot' zones to cool them down.

There have been days where I've had to spend two hours in a cold bath with a book to keep cool enough to not get a migraine. Drought & water restrictions here mean baths are out of the question now so I've had to ramp up all the other things.

Ooh, also, suck on ice cubes. :)

I hear there's a bit of a heatwave in the UK right now. As someone from the UK who's been living in South Africa for almost a decade, some things I do to deal with the heat:

* Feet in a bowl of cold water
* Ice pack wrapped in a damp tea towel (especially good under your feet in bed at night)
* Damp tea towel around neck
* Spray bottle to spritz self with water

Keep your 'hot' zones cool; armpits, under boobs, crotch, back of knees. Having cool feet and neck helps immensely too.

Comment threads live-update is ready! Couple of things still to be done and the v0.1.0 will be finally released! 🎉

If you know anyone working on an ActivityPub project and they need any advice/feedback/help or want to spread the word, tell them to DM me! I am more than willing to help or spread awareness! #activitypub #fediverse

The #bookshop kobo.com sells lots of non-DRM eBooks!

However, they also sell lots of DRM eBooks, all mixed together with the non-DRM, and no filter to sort them out

This makes it very difficult to look for non-DRM books on #Kobo.

So, to solve this problem switching.social presents the Unofficial Kobo Search page, which lets you find non-DRM books available on your country's Kobo site:

https://switching.social/unofficial-kobo-search/

Any feedback very welcome.

Thanks everyone who bought Neofeud this sale! This has gone a long way to help treat our tannin and microbe-filled tap water, and supports my life decision to not become a hi-frequency trading AI programmer for a TBTF bank. :) Faith in sentient-kind's ability to run a post-capitalist society at scale ++.

Still 50% off for the next few days on Itch: https://silverspook.itch.io/neofeud

It's really very good.

I made a thing...

For #electronic #music lovers, I've been working on a new track called Battlestar Dreams (it's just a quick preview)...

Starting to see how important community is. @ChrisTalleras made me realize how important it is to create a friendly environment for people to gather around art that we like and share with each other. We are the creators, we are the creatives. It's our duty to create these places for others and us.

It's #FollowFriday! Here are some #alternatives to follow:

@cloutstream CloutStream: An open source federated alternative to LinkedIn, just launched its new website

@Chocobozzz Chocobozzz: Lead developer of #PeerTube, the ethical alternative to YouTube

@Purism Purism: Makers of privacy-oriented computers and the upcoming Librem5 smartphone

@fdroidorg F-Droid: The open source alternative to Google Play

@krita Krita: Open source painting software aimed at artists and illustrators
