Finally, Firefox stops warning me about my warranty.

Can someone teach me or point me to the source of the minimum amount of information I would need to successfully use https://github.com/jantic/DeOldify on video?

The readme relies on a bunch of assumptions of foreknowledge that I don't have.

I'd like to use the above on a couple of films and see what it looks like, and I'm struggling to find the loose thread that I need to untangle the knot.

I know there are some Neural Net folks around here, though, so I'm hoping one of you will be willing to help.

I've been a long-time, and happy, jrnl user. However, recently I've been finding it was getting slower and slower.

jrnl is a commandline journal application, that supports encryption. It also has lots of nice features, and best of all, your notes are stored in plain text.

I upgraded to the latest version (2.01 via pip) and also switched from Py2 to Py3. Running jrnl after this did an auto update of the format, now it is super fast.

Malicious Python libraries stealing OpenPGP and SSH keys:

https://www.zdnet.com/article/two-malicious-python-libraries-removed-from-pypi/

– Look for python3-dateutil, and jeIlyfish.
– Both modules try to exfiltrate SSH/OpenPGP keys and send them to an IP address.
– This is the third time the PyPI team intervenes to remove typo-squatted malicious Python libraries from the official repository.

Hello Fediverse, and and especially PeerTube's admins.

After finding Neo-Nazi content on the instance I was using, I realized that far-right groups have created PeerTube instances or use unmoderated instances to share their videos.

This content federates on other instances.

I've created this account to list somewhere theses instances, making it easier to isolate them and their content and protect us.

The list : https://cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/view/VYembCGMfcWQjDTYmKLVIOkdFg0Z3ApcwIaRIgyPbeY/

---

You can help by reporting instances to this account.

You can follow this account to get update about this list (theses will be under a content warning).

( Inspired by @isolategab )

le compte @PeerTube_Isolation propose de repérer et lister sur un pad les instances de #peerTube qui ne sont pas modérées et hébergent des vidéos d’extrêmes-droites diverses de manière à les dé-fédérer.
Cette initiative peut être fort utile aux admins d’instance comme à tout le monde d’ailleurs.

Django 3.0 Released

So... anarchist communities don't really participate in the larger economy, right? Or at least, work to participate as little as possible in the economy, by reducing dependency on purchaseable goods and services as much as possible.

And anarchist communities make spaces for people who would otherwise be extremely marginalized and utterly dependent (or excluded).

So, seeding anarchist communities is in itself a way to combat capitalism.

Did I get this right?

Reaching for carbon neutral by using food waste to generate electricity: https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2019/11/30/783001327/chew-on-this-farmers-are-using-food-waste-to-make-electricity

Efforts like this are useful so long as the trim around the edges of existing waste, but they have a way of creating pocket industries that profit by producing waste. For example, European biofuel consumption has resulted in Georgia timber companies logging specifically to make the wood pellets that were initially chosen because they were a byproduct.

Whoever updated this meme, the scalies and avians of the world are in your debt. She's beautiful!
