"Opal Lee, the 97-year-old Texan known for her push to make Juneteenth a national holiday, was given the keys Friday to her new home, which was built on the same tree-lined corner lot in Fort Worth that her family was driven from by a racist mob when she was 12."

Just want to say kudos to all of the people within GNOME working to make it more accessible, and building up a modern accessibility stack for Wayland.

@cas you did an incredible job on pma!5000 [1]! 🎉

For those unaware, they just significantly leveled up the #postmarketOS initramfs by:

- adding the ability to drop to a debug/rescue shell on boot by using hardware keys

- making it a lot easier to get logs for debugging initramfs issues

- improving hardware detection in the initramfs

- speeding up boot on many devices

The website says that the BT Speak has 8 gb ram. Is there any way to upgrade to it?
in reply to Leo

@Lprazdnik The upgrade path to go from the 4 GB board to an 8 GB board costs $150.00.

⚠️ BREAKING

Former CDC director predicts bird flu pandemic

Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Robert Redfield said he predicts a bird flu pandemic will happen, it’s just a matter of when that will be.

'Deaths happen within 48 hours': Rare flesh-eating bacteria spreads in Japan

The bacteria can kill people within 48 hours. It has been spreading after the country relaxed Covid-era restrictions.

🚨 #BREAKING

Former CDC director predicts bird flu pandemic

📌 He also noted that bird flu has a “significant mortality” when it enters humans compared to COVID-19.

Redfield predicts the mortality is “probably somewhere between 25 and 50 percent mortality.”

“I really do think it’s very likely that we will, at some time it’s not a question of if it’s more of a question of when we will have a bird flu pandemic,” Redfield said.



A third case of mammal-to-human transmission of the highly pathogenic H5N1 bird flu virus has been reported in the U.S.

U.S. hospitals need to prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

I love how conservative Germans call it "terrorism" if climate activists block an intersection for an hour, but when the entire city is shut down thanks to soccer fans walking on the streets and firing fireworks everywhere, that's fine and "fun".


The Fedora Quality Team is joining Week of Diversity with an Accessibility Test Week!

Much like other Test Days, the goal of this week is to put Fedora through its paces and catch as many accessibility related issues as we can for our disable users. If you want to put your advocacy to action, consider participating!

The Accessibility Test Week runs from Jun 19-25, starting tomorrow.

@mhussain @aral We've heard positive experiences with Fedora MATE even in the Fedora 40 release. Still using Anaconda. The feedback we've heard is that Fedora MATE is able to be spun up to point of daily driving, so it seems unaffected by the problem that affected Workstation.

@aral ok, one setting that should be toggled by default in that spin enable assistive technolagies in preferances/personal? I believe it is

🤔 Imagine a world 🌐 where your personal data is accessible to everyone: your conversations, photos, banking information, emails, and more. 😱

This is why encryption is essential.🔒 It safeguards our sensitive digital interactions, ensuring privacy and security.

✨At Jami, we proudly implement robust encryption to protect your data and keep your digital life secure.🥰🔒

#Jami #OpenSource #Privacy #PrivacyMatters #P2P #encryption

in reply to Jami

You might like to look at building on docs.autonomi.com

Apart from having privacy baked in, doing so also helps fund independent developers such as yourselves as well as individuals. It's a way of leveling the playing field and a way to roll back the enclosure of the online commons.

Anyway, good luck with #Jami, it's new to me which is good to see. 👍

some news regarding rPGP, the minimal #Rust #OpenPGP implementation that stably provides end-to-end encryption for Delta users since many years:

- a new FAQ including questions about IETF specs, Post-Quantum cryptography, Autocrypt, LibrePGP, Seqouia etc. github.com/rpgp/rpgp/blob/mast…

- NLNET just granted #OpenPGP V6 work on rPGP: nlnet.nl/project/rPGP-cryptore…

rPGP is an independent and stable project which provides good general #OpenPGP interoperability, see "rpgpie" in tests.sequoia-pgp.org/

The planned #chatcontrol makes the world less secure and more authoritarian, as it is directed against private and encrypted communication. Proponents are using disinformation, lies, and sleight of hand to push through the project. But chat control can still be stopped. A commentary.
