Ich glaube mir folgen hier nicht so viele aus der Gegend, aber:

unsere Konzert von Trio LDL am Mittwoch und Jessica Moss am Donnerstag (beides in der Säule, Duisburg) haben nicht so viele Tickets im VVK verkauft. Viele andere Veranstalter sagen die Konzerte deswegen ab. Wir haben uns scheinbar entschlossen die Konzerte auf freier Eintritt zu ändern, Spenden wären trotzdem gut.

speaking of bands, do you know any bands from Germany (or even world wide) which play interesting variations of doom metal (ideally: not a lineup full of men)? asking for a smaller doom metal festival.

I've gathered some regional and outside of this region, but I'm happy for new recommendations (also I just love listening to new music)

I added a first way to process zig.build.zon files (for zig packages with dependencies) for pkgsrc, it works for zls (regardless of chroot'ed installs of zig being broken right now in pkgsrc).
To be solved: website independent, no name field other than "$foo = .{ .... }," where "$foo" is the name, so no easy way to extract a name for a distfile to save in distfiles - doubtful if it works in a chroot.

printers used to be terrible shit 10-20 years ago with CUPS. can someone tell me if the HP LaserJet MFP M140w works with recent cups (Linux, BSD. don't really have to ask about macOS as it probably just works)

"Dear Berlin friends, I’m looking for a full time job!
I’m a musician and I’m looking for a video game audio job for a video game company as my first choice!
But also I can do construction and building with my hands and tools, I can drive and do deliveries, I can also make coffee and work in service, retail etc!
I’m not getting any luck with my applications but I’m sure if you introduced me I can make an impression. Thanks for your time ❤️"

Maybe someone in the Berlin crowd knows people...?

do actual good guitarrack stands which can hold accoustic guitars, electric basses, and electric guitars exist, or am I doomed to buy single stands? Any recommendations in brands?

So, pin post and whatever: I mainly work on NetBSD these days, where I'm responsible for:
- porting and updating various software in pkgsrc (which (in)directly leads to contributions in a variety of open source projects)
- maintaining lua

If you want to contribute to this work financially, contributions will mainly be used to keep me alive and happy and go to monthly expenses.

Via Duisburger Stadttauben:
Irgendwie ist es kaum zu glauben.
Aktuell ist ein kleines Taubenhaus in der Innenstadt in greifbare Nähe gerückt.

Es ist ein Pilotprojekt, welches unter Umständen den Weg für weitere Häuser bereitet.
Egal ob ihr Tauben mögt oder nicht, am Ende sitzen wir im gleichen Boot.
Die einen möchten keine nervigen Tauben sehen oder das sie ihre Autos, Gebäude und Balkone vollkoten. Während die anderen ihnen ein Zuhause geben und die Population regulieren möchten.
Beide Bedürfnisse kann man mit einem Taubenhaus lösen.

Jetzt zählt für uns jeder Euro.

Teilt und liked diesen Beitrag soviel ihr könnt und unterstützt unsere Kampagne.

Vielen lieben Dank
❤️🕊️
