Does anyone remember the Lingerie Football League?
It launched in 2009 as a women’s American football league built around scantily clad athletes and barely any protective gear. Controversial is putting it mildly.
After the novelty faded, most people assumed it vanished. But here’s the twist: the league never actually died.
It rebranded as the Legends Football League. Then, after another overhaul, it became the X League—not to be confused with the XFL.
The lingerie is gone because it was unsafe—but also demeaning. The athletes now wear proper, if still form-fitting, uniforms, and the league plays a hybrid of tackle and flag football on a 70-yard field.
They’ve tried to bury the old marketing and now frame themselves around “empowerment through sport.”
Even more surprising, they’ve expanded with domestic leagues in Canada and Australia.
I genuinely did not expect that kind of longevity. What a wild history.

@4ntonio_R verissimo!
Bisognerebbe lasciarle tutte (Meta, ecc.) ma da qualcosa bisogna pur cominciare.

Ciao, FediMeteo!
In the past few days FediMeteo seemed to be having some performance trouble. I dug into it and only found minor issues, until I realised the VM itself had fallen off a cliff. After several reboots it became clear that both bandwidth and I/O latency had dropped to absurd levels. I suspect the provider slapped a cap on it.
So I took the chance to move everything to another VM and provider, still at 4 euro per month. And starting today, forecasts will be delivered straight from Italy. The performance jump feels like going from a storm to clear skies.
FediMeteo’s mission goes on. More countries are coming (stay tuned!) and we will keep aiming to serve everything from a 4 euro VM. I do have powerful hardware available, but proving that the project can run on tiny resources is still part of the mission.

My discord wrapped, from me to discord:
You have told me 826,352 times that my push notifications are off, and asked me if I wanted to turn them on.
They are off for a reason. Fucking stop.

Feeling hesitant about moving to a new OS or container strategy? Don't let fear of the unknown stop you. Start small—try Bastille on a VM this week. Sometimes the biggest security gains come from the smallest decisions.
