I've heard good things about the food bank, and demand is especially high right now

It sounds like such a silly scenario, but the story is a bit sad

A Tennessee woman said she was feeding her cats when she was nearly attacked by a different animal: a monkey.

The incident occurred on Thursday as the anonymous woman was giving her pets food when a monkey — wearing a leash — tried to attack her, News Channel 9 reported. Police don’t know where the monkey came from or who it belonged to.

Startled, the woman grabbed a shotgun and struck the vervet monkey.

The severely injured creature was taken to the Chattanooga Zoo, where veterinarians tried in vain to save it.

Jake Cash, Director of Marketing and Communications at Chattanooga Zoo, told the outlet: “Every animal care professional we spoke to, and that was in the room, decided that the best, obvious course of action was just a humane euthanasia, due to the severity of the animals injuries.”

I loved the translucent things (or even pure transparent)

Found an article with a few more

I think this is the step between supporting the experienced people around you, and feeling that you're ready to take it on yourself

Fine, I'll do it myself

I was remembering a different video, but this one was also funny:

Jump to 2:55 for the bit that the title is referring to

Hmm, from the article it sounds like it would be a good thing for the residents if the council were to purchase it?

Id like to put my lab servers to work archiving US federal data thats likely to get pulled - climate and biomed data seems mostly likely. The most obvious strategy to me seems like setting up mirror torrents on academictorrents. Anyone compiling a list of at-risk data yet?

Bitwarden isn't going proprietary after all. The company has changed its license terms once again – but this time, it has switched the license of its software development kit from its own homegrown one to version three of the GPL instead.

The move comes just weeks after we reported that it wasn't strictly FOSS any more. At the time, the company claimed that this was just a mistake in how it packaged up its software, saying on Twitter:

It seems like a packaging bug was misunderstood as something more, and the team plans to resolve it. Bitwarden remains committed to the open source licensing model in place for years, along with retaining a fully featured free version for individual users.

Now it's followed through on this. A GitHub commit entitled "Improve licensing language" changes the licensing on the company's SDK from its own license to the unmodified GPL3.

Previously, if you removed the internal SDK, it was no longer possible to build the publicly available source code without errors. Now the publicly available SDK is GPL3 and you can get and build the whole thing.
