After seeing how the admin of gladtech[DOT]social handled a recent situation with a racist user, I'm going to recommend blocking that instance.
After admitting a user had multiple reports of racist behavior and using an ai generated of a Black woman to do it behind, it was deemed that they would be allowed to stay on that instance.
This is unacceptable for a couple of reasons. To give a racist the benefit of the doubt after multiple infractions only invites that behavior to continue. And secondly, hiding your identity behind the face of a generated face of the people you are targeting implies a nefarious attempt to avoid consequences and is inherently a bad faith practice of a person who is anti-black and only seeks to cause harm.
Taking the word of a bigot after multiple infractions and deciding there should be no consequences and not limiting their ability to harass others simply invites more hateful behavior to continue and makes the fedi less safe.
Tutanota: We are kicking off the development of email import!
@Tutanota is on fire 🔥! They're finally working on an email import feature, which will make it easier for people to switch from email providers like #gmail.

I built my new PC inside an old classic Mac case. It's working great, the trickiest bit was 3D printing scaffolding for the inside. I finally wrote up a little summary of the project.
@hub This display from Pimorini has almost the same viewable area as the original CRT. I used the original screw holes from the CRT to mount it. 🙂

Here's the second photograph in this series of posts showing the lifecycle of different berries.
Today, we're looking at the strawberry. As always, I hope you enjoy it.

@Bubu as there are a lot of unreleased features on the default branch, I'd recommend trying that (using pdm). 0.2.2 is in the repos but also lacks quite a few of the new fancy stuff and is not as well documented.
Do note that currently you can only add/ update packages, but not yet remove them!

@Friendica Support Friendica currently comes with two themes: frio and vier with frio being the default.
The theme selection does not indicate that. What are others thinking? Would it make sense to add a default tag to frio so that fact is communicated to users?
github.com/friendica/friendica…
The theme selection dropdown Currently * frio * vier Expected * frio (default) * vier frio is the default. That fact should be communicated to users.GitHub
@Tobias Had you tried the new frio v1.0? What were your thoughts?
Clearly themes are a question of personal taste and arguing about them is very difficult. I really don't want to get into an opinion war about personal preferences as that will lead nowhere. But if tobias or other vier users could share, what aspects they prefer about vier over frio, maybe there is something to learn / takeaway / improve about frio.
I want to also add 2 cents about UI changes which affect us all and how many (me included) perceive them: e.g. it's so funny with the changes in macOS. When they first hit you, they sometimes look ridiculous. And next it's fascinating how quickly I get used to altered UI and my brain accepts the change as nice and normal after 14 days of usage and getting used to.

Na Nizozemsku je pěkné, že platební karty přijímají v podstatě všude. Už méně pěkné je že na spoustě míst nepřijímají jiné karty než Maestro a V Pay. Ale konečně se to mění k lepšímu.

Hey folks. I'm still available for new projects.
Ideally, I'm looking for part-time design and/or web development gigs that I can balance with working on Fipampo and The Bad Space.
I'm open to full-time product management positions, especially with a tech focus, as long as they are remote. Part-time management and strategy roles are in my wheelhouse too.
I've had a long career as a digital creator, and I've amassed a lot of skills along the way. I keep an overview handy here -> roiskinda.cool/profile.html
If you have any specific questions, feel free to send me a note.

I finally actually wrapped it up and pushed it out: the hopefully-soon-to-be-peer-validated paper MUSICAL STRUCTURE OF GEOMETRIC ELAMITE
do you like mysterious undeciphered tablets? do you like maybe the literally oldest music in existence? boy do I have the PDF for you academia.edu/93268214/Musical_…
I also have the MP3s for you, though I ask that you at least glance through the paper for context before listening to them soundcloud.com/0xabad1dea/sets…
This has been consuming my life for about nine months now so I guess that makes it my baby
The Konar Sandal "Geometric" tablets, written partially in Linear Elamite and mostly in an otherwise unknown script of simple geometric shapes, have resisted linguistic explanation. Their structure is better explained not as writtenMelissa Elliott (www.academia.edu)
This is ridiculously cool!!!
(Also, any paper with "by the opinion of the ear, well-formed music" and "boustrophedon" in it is a winner in my book.)
Fantastic post by @pluralistic which really gets to the heart of some of the main issues at play in the social media landscape at the moment. I recommend reading the whole thing:
Publisher's Weekly finally updated their annual salary & jobs survey and the results are grim and not surprising at all.
Read the whole thing but I'm pulling this graph of the racial makeup of publishing.
Notably, nonwhite respondants were very skeptical that this small push for diversity will continue.
If we want to change publishing we need to prove the efforts are worth it and BIPOC books SELL.
we also need to push publishers to PAY THEIR EMPLOYEES.
HarperColling Union is STILL on strike. theyve been striking for over a month and Harper execs seem to just be waiting them out.
Big pub is owned by some of the richest families in the world, none of this is a surprise. but that doesnt mean we cant fight back.

If you maintain an open source project, even as a solo developer, I highly recommend writing descriptive commit messages. These messages help others understand what changes you're making and why you're making them, and will help you in the future if you return to a codebase after a long time.
I find myself not wanting to contribute to projects that don't have good commit messages, as it's harder for me to get a grasp on the codebase.
If you don't know how to write a good commit message, this guide is a good start: wiki.gnome.org/Git/CommitMessa…

The experimental Rust PR to add a more expressive "interop" ABI on top of the C ABI is IMHO the most exciting new effort that happened in Rust in the last few years.
Thanks to @josh and others for starting this very important work 🥳

Also @Mara's reply seems to indicate that some serious thought is now also put into other related areas, especially for handling Rust dynamic libraries.

Very exciting stuff for making Rust a better choice in various areas where exactly these topics were slowing down or hindering adoption.

As many people loving open source softwares, we deeply support #framasoft for all they are doing in the world of open source projects.
We need them but they also need our support. You can help them with a donation, they need it to keep their outstanding work. Thank you.
For anyone who doesn't know, @Framasoft support and fund a whole wide range of decentralized, #FOSS, #privacy respecting tools such as #Peertube ( @peertube ), #Mobilizon (think Facebook Groups for the #Fediverse, @mobilizon ) and more!
They do it all on super low funding, so go throw a few or your local currency at them to help grow the #fedi!

One of my favourite podcasts, Talk Description to Me, has returned from their hiatus for a Christmas special | ‘This year, to celebrate the season, we'd like to make this small Christmas offering: a reading of How The Grinch Stole Christmas by the one-and-only Dr. Seuss. But Christine is Christine, JJ is JJ, and this is Talk Description to Me, so in our reading of the classic Christmas tale, a few descriptions of the picture book illustrations have been woven into the text in playful Seussian rhyme!’
