BRICS PAY

「 BRICS PAY will feature a decentralized Cross-border messaging system (DCMS), developed by scientists of the Center of Saint-Petersburg State University of Russia. DCMS operates, transparently, without any central owner or hub. Participants manage their own nodes, allegedly making the system resistant to external abuse, control or interference 」

Yet another flooding in central Italy. Red alert close to Arno, schools+shops shut. It isn't bad weather, it's climate change! It's not a new normal, it's something that will get worse & worse until we stop our dependence from fossil fuels+deforestation. Watch here:

How can I say that? Because we know that as temperatures increase extreme weather events will also increase in frequency/intensity and will do so non-linearly. And we know that fossil fuels+deforestation are the main causes of temperature rise. Source: ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/downloa… @IPCC_CH

Laws against stripping DRM from an audiobook to listen to it privately via different software is “another example of how anti-circumvention laws interfere with consumers’ rights of ownership over the things they buy," EFF’s @mitchstoltz told @arstechnica. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/0…

@mitchstoltz @arstechnica

The problem I see is that most consumers either do not know better or maybe don't care.

In case customers would boycott DRM infected stuff - we might see this issue mostly go away...

we're a bit behind from where I'd like to be (if you don't plan your mental health break, your mental health will plan one for you) but I do hope to have a nicely revamped version of FreeCAD Parametric Web Viewer up in the next 2-3 weeks. we're not going for perfect but incremental improvements while I still have the money to pay for help.
