x.x.x.x - - [10/Nov/2024:00:02:37 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 301 162 "-" "okhttp/4.9.0"
You know what’s interesting about this log line? It repeats 56,686,963 times in www.kernel.org logs for yesterday, across 4 nodes. That’s about 700 times a second, and this has been going on for months.
These requests aren’t intentionally malicious – they issue a simple GET /, receive their 301 redirect, and terminate the connection. From what I can tell, this is some kind of appliance or software installed on mobile clients that uses “can I reach www.kernel.org” as a network test.
This wouldn’t be that big of a deal – a single plaintext “GET /“ that triggers an immediate 301 is very cheap for us to generate, but the number of these requests has been steadily growing.
If you have any idea what this is and how to make it stop, please reach out?

"I’m a neurology ICU nurse. The creep of AI in our hospitals terrifies me"
This interview confirms all the things I have been going on about for the last year.
"I don’t think the goal is really to provide a safety net for everyone — I think it’s actually to speed us up, so we can see more patients, reduce visits down from 15 minutes to 12 minutes to 10. Efficiency, again."

@KaraLG84 @simon We had the whole 'you can't just time things' discussion for the umpteenth time today.
"People use different speech speeds, you know."
"They do? So I can't use my emulator as a catch all? to know when an error has finished reading?"
"nope. Sorry. Different levels of punctuation, too. Different voices. Voices from different suppliers."
"Ah, that makes things harder."
And then I said, "And you know you can install a variety of third party screen readers on Android, right?"

Personally, my view is that they send us the text and we choose how we deal with it.

Any NVDA user who needs to do a lot of clipboard management shouldn't be without this add-on. #NVDA
Also, as an odd keyboard shortcut, insert+8 (on the row of numbers) can be used to open Keyboard Manager; that one's been in JAWS for ages. It's a bit faster than the other ways of opening Keyboard Manager but it's not as intuitive. I still use it as it's one of the first ways I learned to open Keyboard Manager.

20 Jahre Thunderbird!
Thunderbird ist eine freie E-Mail-Anwendung, die sich leicht einrichten und anpassen lässt – und wir haben viele tolle Funktionen hineingepackt!Thunderbird
Hey @fdroid Just now I was writing a fairly long e-mail in @thunderbird when it updated and stopped abruptly. I lost the contents of my e-mail, it wasn't even in the drafts folder.
I would much prefer not to be interrupted with an update while working in an app, but if that can't be avoided then have the app shut down gracefully so it saves work in progress.
Is this a known issue? Should I file a bug report? A feature enhancement request?
Thx for all the other great work, tho!
@RaccoonForFriendica new version 0.1.0-beta21 available for testing!
Changelog:
🦝 add option to load media only when connected over a WiFi network;
🦝 add option to open web pages in internal viewer;
🦝 default visibility for replies and warning if higher visibility than original post;
🦝 prevent changing visibility in post edits;
🦝 make plain text mode the default choice for composition;
🦝 remove "other" section in login;
🦝 improved video player;
🦝 render custom emojis inside poll options;
🦝 layout fixes: chat title, user items in inbox, loading indicators in buttons;
🦝 fix occasional crash in profile screen;
🦝 add more unit tests;
🦝 several dependency updates.
If things go well, this may be the final round of tests before the first stable release. The last bit will probably be making crash reports opt-out by default.
I'm also very pleased to inform you that the app has been accepted by IzzyOnDroid, so installing it is a lot easier if you use it or have its source added to your FDroid app.

Ciao ti do il mio input iniziale: al prinicipio ero un po' confuso... Lo stream di default segue più lo stile Mastodon che quello di Friendica, ma dopo un paio di cambi sono riuscito a farlo più simile a come io uso la WebUI, sebbene sono rimasto col dubbio se il tab "subscription" mostra anche le ricerche salvate.
Un'opzione che ho visto che non è ancora presente è quello di lasciare la barra dei comandi fissa, spero puoi mettere questa richiesta nel tuo todo-list.
@ l'opzione principale per rendere la timeline più "usabile" è abilitare l'opzione "Escludi risposte dalla timeline".
Quello che si vede nel feed "Iscrizioni" è il risultato di una chiamata GET v1/timelines/home che fa parte delle API Mastodon esposte dai server Friendica e che, da quel ho capito, include anche i post contenenti gli hashtag seguiti (in gergo Friendica le "ricerche salvate").
Cosa intendi con "tenere fissa la barra dei comandi"? La barra di navigazione inferiore (Timeline, Esplora, Inbox, Profilo) che sparisce quando scorri? Se sì, è certamente fattibile tenerla fissa, posso aggiungere un'opzione nella schermata delle impostazioni, avevo fatto la stessa identica cosa nel client per Lemmy ma pensavo non interessasse a nessuno questa funzione.
...da quel hi capito, include anche i post contenenti gli hashtag seguiti (in gergo Friendica le "ricerche salvate").
Mitico! 🤩
La barra di navigazione inferiore
Si quella, non mi veniva il nome in italiano... 😅
A me la barra che appare e scompare fa venire il mal di testa... 😵💫
Apprezzerei se potessi tenerla fissa! 🙏
Grazie! 🙏
@❄️ freezr ❄️ scusami, una domanda: tengo fisse la barra superiore e quella inferiore, ma il "floating action button" (ovvero il pallozzo colorato che permette di creare un post, aggiungere un elemento o rispondere) in basso a destra? blocco anche lui?
ps. Termine tecnico "pallozzo".
Se proprio vuoi essere un figo puoi mettere una opzione per fissarla in alto e in basso... 😏
Personalmente odio il "pallozzo" e lo preferirei integrato nella barra di navigazione come nell'immagine postata.
Io sono un grande sostenitore di Diaspora, non so se hai mai usato il wrapper per Android chiamato Dandelior, potrebbe essere fonte d'inspirazione: sopratutto per come gestisce le risposte.
Ad esempio io ho una vera e propria intolleranza al "farting mode" stile Mastodon, dove le risposte sono totalmente sconnesse al loro "post" di appartenenza... 👎
Grazie! 🙏

Hey folks! I'm getting back into Thunderbird as my main email app on Windows and I'm on the hunt for some great add-ons.
I'm especially interested in **accessibility-focused add-ons** that play nice with NVDA and JAWS screen readers. But I'm also curious about any **cool add-ons** that make Thunderbird even better, even if they're not specifically for accessibility.
Got any recommendations? Share them here!
Tagging @mastoblind and @main to spread the word. This is for my fellow blind users, but anyone with a favorite Thunderbird add-on, please chime in!
