Here is the 27kg (50lbs)server that has been building and testing McPixel 3 for over two dozens build targets.

The server is an old HP Proliant I got for $100 and filled it up with the cheapest ram and storage I could find ending up with 56GB for ram (these were 50 cent per 2GB ECC stick!), 24 cores (dual opted on from Bronze Age or something) and 1TB of storage (8 cheap 136GB SAS drives in RAID 5).

The game has a built in unit test, where you can make it basically 100% itself using a script!

So glad to see that #axecon is leading an effort to raise funds for NVDA!

Donate with me! https://www.nvaccess.org/axe-con/?utm_campaign=MKT|axe-con%202023|AxeCon|All|Global

@brainblasted Aha! Brilliant. It got me in this direction omglinux.com/how-to-enable-fra… - straightforward.
Thank you for the tip!

FYI, there is an actively funded effort on behalf of the LaTeX Team to make PDF documents created with LaTeX accessible. With only two or three volunteers working in the project it is taking some time, but progress has been made. #TeXLaTeX

We want to (because Mastodon absolutely rocks), but this would need to be coded on the Mozilla Foundation side of things since we share the platform. It's probably more likely to happen once Mozilla.social gets properly stood up here and starts having a larger presence.

But rest assured, I'm pushing for stuff like this to happen. It's a great suggestion!

The second part in the series is an overview of the Assembly 2 workbench for @FreeCAD: workflow, features, stability, performance etc. This WB has been unmaintained since 2019, so there's limited use for it. The third part (coming soon) will deal with the A2plus workbench

Are you a #Fediverse developer?

There's a new initiative by @gabek (the lead developer of the Fediverse livestreaming platform @owncast) called FediDocs. It aims to provide an easy-to-find set of documentation for how to federate with a Fedi platform, in order to promote better federation between platforms.

The FediDocs website is still very new and empty (fedidocs.org/about/) but if you are a Fedi developer please contact @gabek about contributing info on federating with your project.

I often use very short microbreaks during the day to doodle away at some music. Let me show you. This is a snippet from the latest thing I've been chipping away at for a couple days here and there.

Secure communication apps are lining up to oppose measures in the U.K.’s #OnlineSafetyBill (OSB) that would make the web less safe for everyone: WhatsApp joins the fight against UK’s proposed version of the Online Safety Bill.

Now you can listen to the talks of the CSUN Assistive Technology Conference 2023 directly on YouTube if you can't attend in person! 😀 👍

The CSUN Conference is an annual event organized by California State University, Northridge's Center on Disabilities. It brings together experts and enthusiasts from all over the world to discuss and showcase innovative assistive technologies and promote inclusion for persons with disabilities.

The folder pane redesign was covered in depth in this blog post:

As you can see from my screenshot, I removed that big blue "New Message" button, because I can just use Ctrl+N.

Thank you @thunderbird for retaining just enough customizability for power users while making the UI more appealing to the "touchscreen generation".

Coming up on Mosen at Large 219, first-hand accounts of the Sense Player and Stream, AI makes its presence felt in the blind community, and Braille display recommendations mosen.org/malppreview0219/

Got all gestures wired up in Identity: there's drag-and-drop heavily inspired by Loupe with its beautiful thumbnail (naturally, in Identity it shows playing videos!), there's drag to pan when zoomed in, there's click to "select" a video tile.

I love how easy it is to do drag-and-drop while showing whatever in the thumbnail in #GTK 4 (especially now that sizing and hotspots work ;)). Thanks @sophie and @brainblasted for things I stole from Loupe and @alexm for help with gestures!

@strelitzer Bringt schon was, und zwar 'ne ganze Menge. Nur halt nix, was WIR gern hätten oder was UNS von Nutzen wäre, oder was das vorgebliche Ziel auch nur irgendwie avisieren würde – sondern halt genau das Gegenteil: totale Unsicherheit, Vertrauensverlust, Überlastung der "Behörden" und keine Zeit mehr für dich echten Fälle…

Also ja, ich stimme voll zu: In die Tonne damit. Und die, die das trotz aller Fakten noch immer durchsetzen wollen, gleich mit – die haben den falschen Job.

Properly jaw-dropping moment this evening: an e-mail from my US publisher saying that "since it's a science book", they'll publish Blue Machine WITH METRIC UNITS. So I don't have to convert everything to foot pounds per square elephant. In YEARS of writing for the US, this is the first time I have ever had a hint that there is a world outside feet and inches. Progress! #Books #Metric #Science
