    Speaking of #BandcampFriday, make sure you check out &quot;Into the void&quot;, a gorgeous song Jillette Johnson wrote on the dark feelings many artists have in these era, having to compete with AI and all. In just two minutes of music, it doesn&#39;t only have poignant lyrics, but also just beautiful chord progressions and vocal lines that really took me by surprise https://jillettejohnson.bandcamp.com/track/into-the-void-solo-piano

    Hey, it&#39;s both #FairTradeMusicFriday *and* #BandcampFriday, today! Considering my birthday is just around the corner, in a couple of weeks (when I&#39;ll turn years old), what better gift for this tired old man than a listen and some feedback? If you&#39;re feeling generous, my albums are for sale too, but let&#39;s be honest, music is just a hobby for me, and all I really care about is reaching people with it, and know if my music did something for you or not 🙏 https://music.lminiero.it/...

    I wonder how many people among my German friends would tell me they voted (or will vote) AfD, if I asked them. This reminds me of the old Berlusconi days in Italy: no one ever admitted voting for him, and yet somehow he always won. Dark days ahead.

    Spent some time importing all my presentations to my slidef hosted instance, which I tweaked a bit to my liking (in terms of description, ugly SEO stuff and the like), and I ended up adding even decks I never posted to SlideShare in the first place. I have to say I&amp;#39;m quite happy with how it turned out! https://lminiero.it/talks/

    I firmly believe #AI will be the death of #opensource software. When everyone, instead of supporting the developers of #foss they profit from, chooses to ask #ChatGPT or #Claude for help, what do you expect will happen? Consulting and support is how mantainers put food on the table: it was tough before, it&amp;#39;s pretty much impossible now (and I&amp;#39;ve seen it happen already), and yes, projects WILL be abandoned. Is this what we want? Not sure if there&amp;#39;s a way back. Any way you...

    I literally don&amp;#39;t have room any more, but that didn&amp;#39;t stop me... a new baby&amp;#39;s in the house! A second-hand Cort G200DX, in beautiful natural wood 🧡 The guy that sold it to me made a lot of tweaks to it, including a couple of Seymour Duncan pickups, and it&amp;#39;s such a joy to play. I&amp;#39;m attaching a short video I recorded to give it a test, the beginning of the gorgeous &amp;quot;Lena&amp;quot; by Gamalon, a fusion band I really love #guitar #cort #gamalon #lena

    Hey, I almost missed #BandCampFriday this month... If you don&#39;t know that it is, it&#39;s a special day in the month where, if you purchase a track or an album, Bandcamp waives the fees it usually takes, which means more money for artists. If you&#39;re curious, you can find my new album &quot;Loser&quot;, along with a lot of other music, at the link below 🙏🏻 https://lminiero.bandcamp.com

    It&#39;s #BandcampFriday today, which means more money for artists if you purchase their music there. Yours truly has some music here too, including my latest album &quot;Loser&quot; *wink* *wink* *ca-ching* https://lminiero.bandcamp.com

    At the latest #IETF in Vienna, we decided to run a peculiar experiment... stream the #MoQ sessions using #MoQ itself! All using our existing #WebRTC infrastructure as the source for the media. If you want to learn more, this blog post is a detailed overview on how we made that happen. Feedback (and boosts) welcome! https://www.meetecho.com/blog/moq-ietf126/

    Dear #Fediverse, I wonder if you&amp;#39;ll be able to help me, since so far nobody else could. At about 1:54 in the video below, a beautiful waltz starts playing. I fell in love with it since the first time I heard those notes, but could never place it. I think it&amp;#39;s more likely to be a soundtrack, rather than classical music, but no idea where it could be from. I tried asking on Reddit (yuck) and no responses so far. Anyone can help find an answer? Please boost for reach! 🙏 https://...
