Ich hab mir jetzt nen #Pixelfed-Account angelegt und auch nen #Friendica-Account. Und jetzt? Ich hab mal was gehört, dass ich beides mit #Mastodon und mit meinem #Blog verpopeln kann. Stimmt das? Und wie mache ich das?

Jaja, ich bin einfältig. Aber wer weiß, vielleicht mache ich doch mehr im #Fediverse? Niemand kann in die Zukunft gucken.

Remembering Usenet — The OG Social Network that Existed Even Before the World Wide Web


Screenshot of the Pan application for Usenet. It shows a list of groups on the left, with various topic subjects in a selected group, to the right. The user has right-clicked ona group, and a popup menu shows an option selected to get new group headers and bodies.
Before Reddit, before GitHub, and even before the World Wide Web went online, there was Usenet.

This decentralized network of discussion groups was a main line of communication of the early internet — ideas were exchanged, debates raged, research conducted, and friendships formed.

Usenet is one of the oldest computer network communications systems still in widespread use. It went online in 1980, at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University.

Linux was officially announced on a Usenet newsgroup.

Usenet’s use may have declined over the years, but it is still quite active. It is good to see that although the masses may often only know about Reddit, Facebook, etc, there are many of the older social networks still running, with thousands of daily users. Another such example is IRC (I post to my own IRC group daily).

Despite new social networks, there is still plenty of space and use on the older networks. Not everyone just flocks to the newer, flashy websites. I suppose it also means that the users on Usenet and IRC are also likely to have a slightly different focus on how they communicate. I also doubt you’ll find many Gen Z etc users on those older networks.

Whilst the original Usenet is paid access, If you want to ‘lurk’ on Usenet groups you can also try out the free Eternal September service. I use a client app called Pan to read Usenet groups.

Bike Index — Over $28,937,727 Worth of Bikes Recovered Globally Through Crowdsourcing


Groups of cyclists of diverse ages, ranging from young adults to middle-aged individuals, in photos with different backgrounds such as a city, the widerness, etc. Attire varies from casual t-shirts and shorts to more athletic cycling gear. One individual is shown wearing glasses and a plaid shirt.
It’s simple. Submit your name, bike manufacturer, serial number, and component information to enter your bike into the most widely used bike registry on the planet.

If your bike goes missing, mark it as lost or stolen to notify the entire Bike Index community and its partners. A user or partner encounters your bike, uses Bike Index to identify it, and contacts you.

With the help of the Bike Index community and its partners, you have the information necessary to recover your lost or stolen bike at no cost to you.

It is great when technology can be harnessed to protect someone’s investments. This is a perfect way of harnessing the power of crowd collaboration.

Decidí expandir un poco mi opinión sobre el porqué nunca he sido fan de esto y también hablo un poco sobre Wafrn y algo que realmente me gusta de ese proyecto.

Escribir me ayudó a relajarme, así que bueno, aquí el post:

One year and I'm still here. I mean in/with this blog. my self-talk "George" tried to get me off track of course, more than once.
I guess he didn't want me to learn all his tricks.

George, my stream of thoughts is basically like a web forum. And you, dear old friend, are its troll.
So I guess this means open rebellion.

Warning for people buying electronics in South Africa


A man with short hair, wearing a dark blue t-shirt, a grey cardigan, and a backpack. He appears to be in his late twenties or early thirties. He is standing in an electronics store, with his right hand outstretched towards a box with headphones in, which are hanging on the wall.
South Africa’s electrical and electronic goods market is awash with products that are fake, counterfeit, and don’t comply with local safety standards and other regulations.

Aside from non-compliant and illegal consumer electronics, CBI-electric engineering executive Andrew Dickson revealed last year that South Africa was seeing an influx of counterfeit electrical goods from the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and Asia.

These include knock-off circuit breakers, light switches, and other common electrical items people install in their homes.

The biggest problem really with many of these goods are, they don’t carry the necessary regulatory standards approvals. These standards are actually quite important as they relate to safety (especially fire and electrical insulation against shocks) as well as radio interference. There are countless frequencies of radio transmission in every house, and it is important that these stay within their approved frequencies and power levels, otherwise they generate noise and interference for other devices. These disturbances can often reach as far as neighbouring homes. Sometimes it is just annoying hums on speakers, but it can both block and trigger other devices nearby, like opening a garage door.

Radio communications are also sensitive to noise and these often happens on harmonics, so noise on one frequency is picked up on a number of other frequencies. It can interfere with not only your own Wi-Fi but also emergency radios etc.

This is why all radio equipment is approved for use in a country. The importer is usually responsible to ensure compliance (whether with a local standard, or with a locally accepted international standard). So if you import your own electronics, you’d want to be sure they are compliant. Apart from facing a R20,000 ICASA fine, there may also be medical or insurance liabilities if such devices cause damage to property or human life.

It’s true that many smaller devices may not have the potential to cause such problems, but certainly inverters of many types do (including electric fences), and I’ve also seen a robot vacuum cleaner causing a lot of disturbance.

📊 Struggling with matrix creation in R? You're not alone! In my latest post, I break down the steps to create empty matrices and avoid common pitfalls.

Dive in at https://www.spsanderson.com/steveondata/posts/2025-01-09/ and let me know your experiences!

Code snippet showing how to create empty matrices in R. The first example creates a 3x4 matrix using matrix(NA, nrow = 3, ncol = 4). The second example creates a 2x2 matrix using matrix(NA, 2, 2). Both matrices are printed afterward.
A surreal, green-tinted cityscape inspired by "The Matrix." A large glowing green "R" dominates the background, surrounded by falling binary code. In the foreground, a figure in a black trench coat and sunglasses, resembling Neo, stands on a high ledge overlooking the city. The scene is atmospheric, blending digital and physical elements seamlessly.

🇬🇧 I just finished the #electrical installation in my new house. All that's left is to install the sockets and switch once it's painted, but the wires in the boxes are already connected and the #Shelly 1PM/2PM Gen3 smart modułem (the ones that support #Matter ) are also installed. Will there be any takers for a #blog post describing the whole process of installing this?

🇵🇱 Właśnie skończyłem instalację elektryczną w moim nowym domu. Zostało tylko zamontować gniazdka i włączniki na gotowo, gdy będzie już pomalowane, ale przewody w puszkach są już połączone i zainstalowane są też inteligentne moduły #Shelly 1PM/2PM Gen3 (te wspierające #Matter ). Czy znajdą się chętni na wpis na blogu opisujący cały proces instalacji tego?
