Moin ins #fediverse

#Mastodon läuft gut. Ich (das FÖJ) arbeite nun an einem Vortrag darüber, den ich bei einem Vereinstreffen halten werde. Am Ende soll ich Menschen anleiten, auf Mastodon zu starten.

Ich würde - um Überforderung vorzubeugen - gerne eine App für's Handy empfehlen, nur welche? Usability ist sehr wichtig. Die Zielgruppe sind keine digital natives.

Bin auch dankbar für instanz vorschläge

Linux - Trucchetto shell

Poniamo che voglia leggere il contenuto di un directory il cui path è molto lungo:

$ ls /directory/dal/percorso/lungo/e/tortuoso

Se dopo aver visto il contenuto volessi andare in quella directory con cd dovrei riscrivere tutto quel percorso ?
No , l'argomento del comando precedente è rappresentabile con "$_"

Quindi basterà scrivere:

cd $_

#gardening tip:

You don't need expensive rain water barrels to start saving water.

When thunderstorms were forecast a month ago I just used whatever I had at hand to save water.

Storage bins.
They're like $40 for 50 gallons.

Is it prefect? No.

But during the heat wave last week I didn't have to use city water for my garden once.

And I had water left when it rained this morning! (they're now full again).

So go for it!

#HeatAdvisory #Tips #Summer

The one big tip I seldom if ever see in lists on how to beat the heat is ever about your clothing.

Wear only natural fibers like cotton & linen. Polyester is not going to breathe. 100% cotton is your friend during this time. The looser the weave the better. Plus keep as much skin exposed as you can.

Avoid anything that says 'moisture wicking'. It's code for 'this garment will make you sweat'. And no, I don't care if it's a golf shirt that they sell in the summer.

I just wrote a huge entry about the Fediverse here. It is a guide with all sorts of tips and explanations, and links to many useful pages. Please feel free to share it with anyone who may be interested in joining. Note, though, that I am not the type to care if you're on a mainstream platform or not. Thi sis just meant as a guide for those who may need it, not as a way of bashing those who use non-Fediverse platforms. As a side note, Dreamwidth is one of my favourite sites on the Internet, precisely because of its wonderful accessibility.

If you would rather read it on Reddit, here is the same post there.

Want to run the given command in the background as root or other user? Try:
```
sudo -b /path/to/job.py
sudo --background /path/to/foo.pl
sudo -u {user_name} -b /path/to/job.py
```
Please note that you can't use shell job control to manipulate background processes started by sudo which is both pro and con at a time.
