Hi c/selfhosted,

I just released wanderer v0.17.0, which brings full federation support to the project.

E.g.: https://lemmy.world/u/demo@demo.wanderer.to

For anyone new to it: wanderer is a self-hosted platform for managing hiking, biking, or running trails. You can upload or draw GPS tracks, organize them into lists, add photos, metadata, waypoints, and summit logs. It’s open source and designed for people who want full control over their outdoor data, with a clean UI and no third-party dependencies.

What’s new in v0.17.0

This release adds support for ActivityPub, meaning instances of wanderer can now talk to each other—and to the wider fediverse. Here’s what that enables:

• Follow users across instances When you follow someone, any new trails or lists they upload will show up in your feed automatically.
• Like and comment on trails, even across servers.
• Mentions You can mention other users in trail descriptions, comments, or summit logs, and they’ll be notified—regardless of which instance they’re on.
• Summit logs from others Other users can now log their own visits to your public trails with GPS data and photos.
• Cross-instance trail sharing Public trails can be shared with users on other instances.

If you’re not interested in federation, that’s fine too. wanderer still works completely standalone—federation only kicks in when you start interacting with other instances.

This is my first job after graduating (last year; I’m currently pursuing a master’s). I’ve been working at this company since last autumn as an accountant. Technically, this guy isn’t my direct boss since the CFO runs our department, but he’s the CEO - the top executive - so I consider him everyone’s boss in a way. I only met him about two months ago by chance, and he struck up a conversation. Then we ran into each other again, and so on… Apparently, he enjoys my company, so we’ve been hanging out and talking outside of work over the past month. It’s been fun, but there’s obviously a power dynamic there.

José Padilla was convicted on charges of supporting al Qaeda after he was initially accused of planning a "dirty bomb" attack in the U.S. He was eventually sentenced to 21 years in prison.

JD Vance bashed Democrats at the state, local and national levels Friday during his visit to Los Angeles, accusing top California officials of encouraging violent protesters and Sen. Alex Padilla, whom he referred to as "José Padilla," of engaging in "political theater."

“I was hoping José Padilla would be here to ask a question. But, unfortunately, I guess he decided not to show up because there wasn’t the theater, and that’s all it is,” Vance said. “It’s pure political theater. These guys show up. They want to be captured on camera doing something.”

Vance's comments referred to an incident last week in which federal law enforcement agents handcuffed Padilla after he interrupted a news conference by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Padilla was forcibly removed from the event but not arrested.

They use stacked transparent color sensors, like Foveon camera sensors used to.

In numerous experiments, the researchers put the two prototypes, which differ in their readout technology, through their paces. Their results prove the advantages of perovskite: the sensors are more sensitive to light, more precise in color reproduction and can offer a significantly higher resolution than conventional silicon technology.

The fact that each pixel captures all the light also eliminates some of the artifacts of digital photography, such as demosaicing and the moiré effect.

The nuclear scientists were killed using a special weapon whose details were barred from publication, Channel 12 says.

The 10th nuclear scientist was killed shortly after the other nine, as part of the overnight Thursday-Friday Israeli operation, which included strikes on Iran’s ballistic missile program and the Natanz nuclear site, along with the elimination of top members of the Islamic Republic’s military leadership, the network says.

The nuclear scientists were all killed while they were sleeping in their beds, with Israel deciding to carry out the assassinations simultaneously so that there wouldn’t be time to tip off those being targeted.

The scientists apparently believed they were safe from such targeting in their homes, a senior Israeli official tells Channel 12, noting that previously assassinated nuclear scientists were killed while heading to their cars after work.

Israel had been tracking Iranian nuclear scientists for years and the ten killed last week were marked for assassination in November of last year, Channel 12 says.

Just when I feel like dystopian news can't really disturb me anymore...

Leaving this totally unrelated article about Palantir and Israel here for absolutely no reason at all...

How Israel Uses AI in Gaza—And What It Might Mean for the Future of Warfare:

 A program known as “The Gospel” generates suggestions for buildings and structures militants may be operating in. “Lavender” is programmed to identify suspected members of Hamas and other armed groups for assassination, from commanders all the way down to foot soldiers. “Where’s Daddy?” reportedly follows their movements by tracking their phones in order to target them—often to their homes, where their presence is regarded as confirmation of their identity. The air strike that follows might kill everyone in the target's family, if not everyone in the apartment building.

Abraham, whose report relies on conversations with six Israeli intelligence officers with first-hand experience in Gaza operations after Oct. 7, quoted targeting officers as saying they found themselves deferring to the Lavender program, despite knowing that it produces incorrect targeting suggestions in roughly 10% of cases.

I can't decide the best way to secure our front loading washing machine.

We have twins. They're fascinated by the washing machine. Lights, beeps, action... everything. One twin getting inside and their erstwhile companion starting the cycle is absolutely possible.

Obviously we keep the laundry door closed but in a way you just build up the appeal. One of them has figured out how to open doors by standing on his trike.

I could put some kind of stick-on toddler lock on the door but I worry it would be tough to establish the habit of closing the door and putting that lock on. Besides which surely it's nice to leave the door open to dry out between loads anyway?

The washing machine does have a toddler lock but that's only to prevent someone changing the settings during a cycle, it doesn't prevent starting a cycle.

My best idea thus far is a timer on the power outlet. So you turn on the power and set the timer to turn it off after however long the load takes.

The problem with this is that I haven't been able to find a count-down style timer that allows you to set periods longer than 2 hours. Most power outlet timer thingies do schedules, not count-down.

I know this maybe sounds like an easily solvable problem - just turn the power off when it's done - but that's just not how things roll in our house.

He actually said this 😲

In Portuguese, I find it funny that gato/gata could be someone attractive or a literal cat.
