A ver, gente de lejos con ganas de ayudar, un sitio donde meter pasta, de mil que habrá: para el rescate de una librería en Picanya, cercana a unos amigos. Cercana de "la librería favorita de mis amigos" pero también cercana de "sus amigos que llevan la libreria además se han quedado en la calle, incluida la nena de un año es amiga de la nena de mis amigos":

Is this correct? I always thought Access technology was a UK thing. Later I was told Access Tech was the old fashioned term…
“Access technology and assistive technology are closely related, yet they serve slightly different purposes and audiences. Access Technology is a subset of tools and devices specifically aimed at making mainstream technology usable by people with disabilities. For example, screen readers, like NVDA or JAWS, open up digital content to blind and visually impaired users by converting text to speech or braille. Similarly, captioning on videos makes audio content accessible to people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Access technology is about creating a pathway to existing environments—digital or physical—so people with disabilities can engage equally with content and experiences designed for a general audience.
Assistive Technology on the other hand, encompasses a broader range of devices and software designed to assist individuals with disabilities in performing functions that might otherwise be difficult or impossible. This can include mobility aids, like wheelchairs or walkers, augmentative communication devices, or adaptive tools for daily living. For example, a braille note-taker supports daily productivity and communication for someone who is blind, while a prosthetic limb aids physical mobility for someone with an amputation. Assistive technology covers tools that provide support specific to the user’s needs, beyond accessibility in mainstream contexts.
Imagine a visually impaired student navigating an online course. Access technology, like a screen reader, bridges the gap by converting on-screen text to speech, allowing her to participate in the course as fully as anyone else. But to take notes or organize her studies, she may rely on a braille note-taker—an assistive technology uniquely tailored to her needs beyond just accessing information. For many, these tools are more than technology; they’re lifelines to independence, connection, and self-expression—bridging gaps and lifting limitations in ways that honour each person’s unique journey.
In simple terms:
• Access Technology helps people with disabilities use mainstream technology.
• Assistive Technology provides personalized support and tools for individuals to live more independently, across both general and unique contexts.
Their paths intersect because many access technologies—like screen readers, magnification tools, or voice recognition—are also considered assistive technology due to their role in supporting independence and empowerment. However, assistive technology is a broader term, often including unique tools tailored for very specific personal needs beyond mainstream accessibility.
As we look to the future, the lines between these two types of technology may continue to blur, with innovations that address complex needs across all contexts. Imagine AI-powered apps that identify objects, read text, or recognize faces in real-time—tools that simultaneously provide access and enhance day-to-day living.
While access technology aims to bridge the mainstream gap, assistive technology offers tailored support that supports each individual's independence.“

We are very happy to present you with GIMP 3.0.0 RC1! 🥳
This is our first release candidate for what will be GIMP 3.0.0. Now is the time for everyone to test!
It is the result of years of work. I'm sure it still has many bugs (and you should report!), but we hope you will still appreciate the new version. 🤗
Ja, Rousseau heeft zijn partij aan de NVA verkocht.
"Nick Serneels neemt ontslag als voorzitter van Vooruit district Antwerpen. Dat blijkt uit een mail van Serneels naar de leden van de districtsafdeling van Vooruit. Hij voelt zich gepasseerd tijdens de onderhandelingen voor een nieuw districtsbestuur."

Congratulations to the awesome Jen Linkova, winner of the 2024 Itojun Service Award for her work on #IPv6!
She has played a key role in blazing a path towards IPv6-mostly deployments in Enterprise environments, including bringing the Google network to IPv6-mostly. It has been a great pleasure working with her over the years and this award is very well deserved!
With #matrix and oidc I was thinking about offering an official FluffyChat server. It would have some benefits, right? I could have more control over the UX and would be kore independent. On the other hand it would require a lot of work and eval a public legal identity with either an expensive impressum service or publishing my physical address. Also a lot of legal paperwork.
So I came up with a new idea. A new login UX flow where the user picks the homeserver from a trustworthy list

I wish I was surprised by all the media orgs bowing and scraping to the next president. But this is how they operate. By Jan. 20, they will have completely memory-holed the fact that he is an outright fascist.
Remember: This is a business decision.
“But Democracy Is Not Over” Are you really absolute sure about that? I think it very probably is.
Trump has been screeching since 2015 about wanting to imprison and kill his political opponents, and how he needs people around him who would will do it when ordered because that’s why he couldn’t from 2016-2020. And guess who he’s surrounded by now?
Are you REALLY FUCKING SURE that democracy wasn’t just murdered by all the stupid fucking idiots who didn’t vote for Harris yesterday?

How does it handle a shared family calendar? That's vital for us.
@patrickleavy You can share entire calendars with all family members, it syncs instantly on all devices. You'll need Revolutionary or Legend for this, and support needs to activate the family option. Do contact us via the question mark to the right of your mailbox once you've subscribed!
This is old, but it shows how you can share the entire calendar and how it then shows up in the other account instantly: youtube.com/watch?v=n8l_xV6z8E…

After yesterday I plan to close accounts with any company based in the USA... Which means
- Mastodon as only social media
- tutanota for email
- Linux for OS (already been using this for 20 years)
Any suggestions for search ?
@Tutanota a reminders feature would be a nice thing to have.
So I can switch away from using google calendar for reminders.
I meant more like google tasks or iOS reminders.
i want to see a list of reminders separate from the calendar.

Ya ha pasado una semana de la #Dana de #Valencia, y creo que es apropiado hablar de responsabilidades.
La delegada del Gobierno Central llamó hasta 4 veces a la responsable del Gobierno Valenciano ofreciendo ayuda y esta no aceptaba la ayuda.

Como bien comentan por aquí, la responsabilidad no se limita a esta semana.
Hay responsables en toda la cadena que se forró construyendo para especular con un bien básico como la vivienda.

Tres de cada diez viviendas afectadas por la DANA en Valencia se construyeron en zona inundable durante la burbuja

La Comunidad Valenciana no solo no movilizó sus propios recursos, sino que rechazaba los recursos ajenos que le ofrecían (como señala @qualcu ) . En este caso, los bomberos de Catalunya:

Když to tady dneska kluci nakousli, co bylo vaše úplně první auto?
Já měl svoje první MBčko (rv1967). V šedé barvě, krémový interiér a tu vůni si dodnes pamatuju. Koupil jsem ho tehdy za 2500 Kčs od mého dědy, který už nemohl řídit.
To byl rok 1990 (bylo to o tři roky dřív se narodila moje žena 😂)
Ale na druhou stranu, to byl jediný problém s tím autem. Jinak v pohodě.
why do we have to cook meat but not fruit or veggies?

This is a tool for visualization right? where are the visuals. Let me check the tutorial.
“The following software is needed to follow this tutorial” … “Once they have started, open the following URL in your browser”
Ok, no dice. I’ll just try the demo.
