That time when you're SSH'd into a Linux VPS and you want to do something like "cat /var/log/mail.log | grep blablabla" but end up just typing "cat /var/log/mail.log" then hitting Enter, and the absolutely massive infodump causes NVDA to freeze. Yeah, that. Happened to me a few hours ago.
My absolutely freeking favorite one right now is the one where the terminal does, something, and it causes NVDA to break in such a way where alt tab doesn't read, and the terminal window doesn't read, causing me to have wo restart NVDA. Can't count the amount of times on two hands that this has happened in the past 2 hours.
@Bri Yeah I decided to write my own after I discovered that pretty much all of the existing ones have some very nasty issues. I posted about it but Idk if you saw it: github.com/ethindp/prism. It doesn't have a README yet and bindings are still a big work in progress
The Platform-agnostic Reader Interface library for Speech and Messages: a new universal text-to-speech and screen reader abstraction library - ethindp/prism
@Bri Yep. I debated for like 2-3 hours whether I should expose pitch/rate/volume control because I wasn't sure if that was persistant or a temporary change. In the end I decided not to for now. And OneCore was a pain in the ass
@Bri Well, and Idk if all the invariants and such hold, which of course would be an API bug. But yeah, thanks for taking the time out of your day to tell me your thoughts! :)
Or perhaps the stupid and horrible memory leak that causes explorer to crash with a buffer underrun if mainstream games or other intense applications mess with UIA or keyboard hooking, or the fact that it now just dies sometimes for no reason and zombifies when you try TO RESTART IT, (COULDN'T TERMINATE EXISTING PROCESS)
@draeand That, along with the bug where, ya know, your terminal window will just randomly refuse to focus sometimes, and then you can be assured your terminal window will explode quite spectacularly after that
Wow, I never need to restart NVDA. I just get a focus loss every time I open a new terminal window, memory leaks (which aren't NVDA's fault), and occasionally I alt+tab back to the window and get error sounds any time I do anything. None of those require a restart though. Seems like along with being megaborked, it's differently borked for different people.
Are there tickets for your problems? Could you ping @NVAccess or provide more feedback to get them solved? I ask because I also don't have this kind of problems.
several people reporting lately that #deltachat has become their main app: They are now spending more time in the chats, also with web apps, than in any other app. It may be a turn to more private communications when social media has become more toxic, obnoxious and dangerous in many places?
#deltachat and #chatmail.is indeed about being readily available when other forms of communications become unavailable or dangerous like in Iran or Russia but also in western and other countries.
@xmppbrasil @wch423 @TagHunt the chinese firewall presents a special challenge that doesn't exist as such in the West. It blocks signal, whatsapp and many other apps. While it may not be important to you, it is something of concern for people interacting with, or travelling, with mainland china.
I have been trying to figure out what to post here about ICE activity today in the Minneapolis / St. Paul metro. It is just •batshit• out there.
Some admin mucky-muck is in town today (Noem, I think?), and ICE is putting on a full We Are A Big Fascist Deal theater show. The result of this is chaos: ICE caravans all over, vulnerable people terrified, less-vulnerable residents dropping their work to keep watch on the streets.
First I was hearing ads on podcasts for Factor Meals. Now I'm seeing ads on Facebook for Factor Meals. I'd bet that, if I posted this on Facebook, then the algorithm would factor my post in and start sending me more ads for Factor Meals. It's a nice thing about Mastodon, that I'm not going to see ads based on what web sites I visit or where I go physically or what I post about. But then I suppose I'm giving Factor Meals free publicity now, although I've never tried one of them.
I used to wonder why someone would snap and drown their kids in the bathtub but after trying to do work and constantly getting interrupted and needing to run errands that end up eating several hours of your day and completely ruining the ability to concentrate on something I think I totally get it -- and I don't even have kids
on the other hand, it took me a number of job applications from RandyLaptop.com before I clicked that a slightly more professional domain might not go amiss.
@pluralistic, over 110 hotels in Quebec are being named in a class action lawsuit submitted a few weeks ago. The suit claims they share crucial information through a common algorithmic pricing software, IDeaS, to drive up prices. Demand has held steady for the last ten years, but average room prices have increased 45% (twice the rate of inflation). Looks like RealPage for hotels.
It’s worth repeating. Android is not a viable base for an independent or even just collaborative operating system. Android is Google and only Google’s project.

Wow, #Gentoo moving from GitHub to Codeberg is cool. Haven't run Gentoo for years now but still have a soft spot for it (I learned so much running it as main driver).
I also use Codeberg für my code (and joined the association) but we can't just "move everything to Codeberg". That's neither sustainable nor a good model. We should have more associations like Codeberg to offer those kinds of services. Create a whole web of forges for collaboration while we can watch GitHub go to hell.
I am heading to FOSDEM again at the end of January. I go there every year and I have learned that there is a really sticker-happy audience there. The last few times I have been there, I have given away several thousands of curl stickers.
As much as Redspot gives me flashbacks to when i was 12 (22 now) I really do miss some of the old elements. Today, I managed to get onto the battlefield (it's a fixed bug now) when I was invited to a team. And the map worked fine. I just wish our suggestions were not behind a wall. Like okay, not every single thing needs to be added. But if not a change, add it as an option. We don't always want to kill. We want to gear up and build. bases, teams, bring back the true Redspot experience!
All in time, my friend. I'd urge you to look at the bleeding edge beta warning that shows on first launch of the latest client update and to remember that what you are seeing right now does not reflect the full final experience which, though may take some time to come to fruition, will be far better than the redspot of old, battlefield is not going anywhere. Right now as we are working on server and client stability, people stress testing the killing ground alone is giving us spades of data, bugs and reports to contend with before we go enabling more parts of the game and adding even more entropy to the situation, first lets be sure that the current level of entropy can be handled gracefully by the server. TLDR, I believe that more enjoyment will result from trying not to interpret the temporary disablement of a feature or game area as any sort of long-term statement about the future of the project, but rather just as us removing extra variables from the testing and fixing the bugs in segments. Meanwhile I hope you still have some fun on what is available of the game in the meantime!
@samtupy I did read the alert that popped up. My assumption was that you guys were just not gonna bring it back at all, or completely ignore it. I had no idea it had to do with all of that. Sincere apologies.
@samtupy One thing that is cheap no matter what is the game straight up killing you if you survive long enough. Why? Would it not be better to damage the players? Reduce the max shielded shots, max health, make the player lose random quantities of some item, there are so many other options that aren't just outright murdering a player for surviving too long. We did work to get those kills/items/whatever else. Yes I know. Once battlefield comes back it'll probably move you or whatever. I'm speaking about now as things are.
@threlm4280 Hey thanks for those suggestions actually, on our end we were thinking of so many angles and getting so many things ready and honestly would have rather not disabled battlefield accept that we have quite a bug list for that map on the internal dev team, making the disablement a bit last minute. We got to a point where we knew of just a couple bugs on KG and literally everything else was broken on battlefield/store/bases. I admit though even as I implemented it I wasn't a fan of it however no better solution crossed my mind at the time what with it being crowded with so many other tasks and todos. What do you think of maybe disabling all item collection for the player after that hour instead, thus forcing the user to play out the rest of their game and seeing how long what they've collected in that hour will last - thus a much more natural ending that's part of a fight? Such a system could even stay around after battlefield is back, meaning users could optionally finish their kg fight if they want nothing to do with bf, or could type /battlefield to move otherwise after their collecting hour is up. In short, the basic problem is that if we allow people to survive on KG for too long, we will create a serious balancing issue where a few tank players could hold dominion for I don't even know how long, same goes for inventories in corpses. So at base we need 1. A way for items to disappear, usually handled by moving to battlefield. 2. A way for players not to end up with ridiculous amounts of spare buffs meaning they'll never die and 3. A solution simple enough that we aren't stopping to code an entire system or sequence behind it instead of fixing the bugs that would just let us enable battlefield sooner. I admit that my creative energy is a wee bit scattered right now as I work on finishing other releases and divert the rest of it to fixing bugs, and thus am more than happy to keep an ear open to better temporary solutions to what should happen after the kg hour expires which would be more satisfying to the players than a death and a broadcasted kill count which, to be very clear, I agree is not ideal.
@samtupy @threlm4280 I would actually really appreciate a system where I wasn’t automatically just kicked the battlefield. Honestly all I care about is the killingground experience, I actually don’t want to play on battlefield and wouldn’t enjoy the game as much if I were forced to. So I for one, long-term, would really, really appreciate you if you added away for people to enjoy the game in its basis form without teams and bases and 20000 health.
@Kaliah @threlm4280 I can say for certain that long term this will absolutely not be an issue. My plan for the distant future is that you click play, you connect to what I'd probably just call the hub, maybe people will call it the map selection area IDK. But it's just a menu and a chat. The menu lets you choose what you want to play, the chat would allow communication with players that doesn't involve getting gunned down half way through your message and would let you coordinate with other players to decide where a group wants to connect to be it an arena, a map like battlefield or killing ground, or other areas/game modes in the future. If you selected killing ground, you'd probably select your hour expiry play mode before you connect E. auto move to battlefield, disable item collection, start over. That's what's in my mind right now, obviously nothing set and stone and any of the idea subject to change as it approaches actual implementation some day, but that's the general idea.
@samtupy @threlm4280 This actually sounds very useful. My main issue with redspot in 2017-2018 is that I felt a bit forced into base/teamplay when I didn't want to play the game that way. My favorite kinds of shooters are very base level ones, rs in its current form, rtr, games like that. So I'd very much appreciate a mode selection thing that would let me play it on killingground with a timeout so it stays fair. So I'm very on board with this idea.
@Kaliah @threlm4280 Indeed! I do think everyone enjoys different parts of redspot, and not everyone should be forced to engage in all of the parts that they don't enjoy.
Glad you understand that yeah. I'm not much of a shooter person myself, but if I play them, I like them simple and fun. Show up, kill some fuckers. The sheer number of items, how clunky the weapon system became, the fact that the map was ruled by a master team with invinsible players that could just sniper you as soon as you spawned from anywhere on the map, that took all the fun out of the game. Honestly, a game like that probably shouldn't allow tracking. You should not be able to just go after one particular player you have a vendetta against, nor should teams be able to pick out any newbie with no friends that just spawned and snipe them from a distance to where they can't react at all. I don't have friends really, that I play with. I like to go it alone, and I understand this puts me at a disadvantage to team players, but it'd be nice if there were other loners I could fight with. So sectioning like that sounds like a good idea. Maybe team play could even involve other games like capture the flag and stuff, while the lone arena, which is completely teamless systematically but can still have allies, is just a free for all.
@x0 @samtupy @threlm4280 That was my issue. Technically you're not *forced* into teamplay, but if you don't teamplay you're basically going to become everyone's punching bag. It becomes severely unbalanced once you allow people to just restock from bases every time they die. I strongly prefer to play shooters alone, or maybe team up with a couple friends so we can't kill each other. But I've never been into the base wars since IMO they completely break the balance of the game. Again, not saying redspot is a bad game, I just don't like how you used to be forced into base wars by the balance issues created by them.
@x0 @samtupy @threlm4280 I agree, this is why I said the mode thing is a good compromise. There are plenty of people who like the base wars, I'm just not one of them.
@samtupy @threlm4280 I appreciate this view very much. I know plenty of people who enjoy the base wars and teamplay, but my enjoyment comes from running around, grabbing stuff, shooting down whoever comes around with whatever weapons are there, and nothing more than that. Even the arenas are cool, I'm just not a base wars person. Once you exclude that from the experience you've got a good shooter IMO, but for sure not everyone thinks like that. Hence why I like your hub idea.
@Kaliah @samtupy @threlm4280 My main thing with readspot is that there's no built in equivalent to the amoun t of info sited players get when playing fps games. This might sound like I'm being picky, but sited people playing mainstreem shooters have an advantage that redspot doesn't give anyone. In the sited world, you can see the map teraine ahead to navigate, and crucially, you can locate other near by entaties with a quick look. The equivalent would be proper radar and a beacon system here. Also, sited people have aiming guides that help with locking onto targets especially with some of the more long range stuff like rifles, and even some short range stuff. Heck, some games that are mainstreem but accessible actually have an aim sound which changes in pitch based on where on the body you are aiming at, since that can affect the dammage of a shot in games that have a model like this. Also, the fact that turning is silent is also an issue, since as with the other stuff, sited people can observe their apponents doing such things by looking. For me there's just such a disconnect between the lack of information in redspot adn what sited people get just by looking at their screen in a pvp fps.
@Kaliah @samtupy @threlm4280 I usually can't target people given the current system. No visual fps that I know of has you spamming a track button to locate somebody manually, and then again, as I said earlier, visual fps games are set such that you can see what's in the line of fire of your weapon if anything is there, and in visual first games adapted for audio, the same applies.
@acerbt @samtupy @threlm4280 How do you propose to fix that issue? I don't really feel like there's an easy way in audio to match the visual experience exactly.
@Kaliah @samtupy @threlm4280 You provide locator beacons similar to items, but ones which are always active. Then whe you are prepairing to loc onto something, you provide some kind of suttle hint when you have a direct line of fire. If you haven't seen this done, you should watch a playthrough of the last of us with accessibility enabled. That has a very comprehensive fight system, all be it against npcs since it's simgle player, but the accessibility cue layer could be an inspiration point.
@Kaliah @samtupy @threlm4280 also, piggy backing off the idea of the last of us, there's a mode for everyone in which you can make the character you control focus their hearing, to hone in on the positions of enemies, and in the case of the accessibility layer on top, items.
@Kaliah @samtupy @threlm4280 even visually in the last of us, when somebody starts aiming, there's a retical on screen that you move which helps you see the alignment with things that can be shot at. The system can also be configured to optionally add resistence at certain points, such as trying to move the retical off an enemy if you are trying to target something else that isn't the closest thing you can turn to face.
@acerbt @Kaliah @threlm4280 So on one hand, you know I totally understand these things after having added auto locking tracking to stw. I understand the virtues there and indeed we plan to move some of stw's tracking system to Redspot at some point. One thing I must admit to though is that there is something I need to fight with or outgrow or find another outlet for or something which has dramatically slowed me down when considering stuff like this. I think maybe it's stupid IDK, but I have a very strong feeling that if I make it so you don't need to jump much in redspot and you don't need to struggle to aim, I would find myself severely under stimulated trying to play the game and I think I would enjoy it a lot less. This doesn't invalidate your points, it just explains why I have trouble working my brain around to implementing them. Because I need to spam keys and move around and have very very quick reflexes, I somehow feel like the physical energy I'm exerting at least very slightly more closely matches a semblance of what I would be outputting were I to actually exist in the fight I'm trying to virtually immerse myself in. I feel like if whether I was aiming at my target was just handed to me on a silver platter, I'd find the game so significantly less challenging that I genuinely think I'd have a lot less fun on it, and my mind blanks when I try to consider ways to keep the game as fast pace as it is now while giving people the auto tracking they want. This leaves me quite 50 50 here and has for a long time. So yeah I'm still trying to figure out how to tackle that problem, luckily we've got plenty of other things to improve, fix, and bring back online in the meantime.
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 I'm with you. I feel like adding autotracking would make the game severely underwhelming and boring. No shit on your game, I just think adding in an autotracking system would make the game far less interesting. I feel like that removes a lot of the strategy. Just wait for the straight ahead sound or whatever, then shoot down X player with no strategy or effort whatsoever. I'm not saying the jump and run technique is the answer, because maybe it's not, but I also don't think redspot is really the game for an autotracker. STW maybe, redspot not really.
@Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 For sure, I think the reason it worked so well in stw was because they are completely different challenges, most people playing stw are not trying to subscribe to the same sort of challenge they are subscribing to by playing Redspot and thus auto tracking in stw was an easy decision as combat was only a small part of that game. Where as in rs combat is the entire point, and I feel like I need to leave it as challenging as possible so as not to make the soul point of Redspot, the combat, too easy/cut and dry.
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 Absolutely. Even in STW the automatic tracking made combat very, very easy. You could set up beacons and trackers so absolutely nothing could sneak up on you. It was extremely easy to shoot down animals, and extremely easy to chase down players because you had the ability to set beacons for them, and even if you didn’t do that there was still a straight ahead indicator. In RS that's the whole point, trying to sneak up, lure people in, strategize ETC, an autotracker does not promote strategy. I feel like adding that to RS would create a thoroughly boring and unappealing shooter game. And it’s not like you could make it something optional either, because if you somehow made people able to opt out of it you know that would be abused
@samtupy @Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 yeah when i started playing rs i was like this thing should be their but as i have played it more and more i have realised that this one feature not being here makes this a lot more challenging. Stw on the other hand made very good use of this feature though.
@samtupy @acerbt @Kaliah @threlm4280 Speaking of aiming and weapons, cyanide. Now I will try to submit this in-game too but, it's pretty much rare to find masks. Which means as long as cyanide's around, you can stack and stack kills just by going after those who have died recently. The pistol's pretty much all you need. I propose the pistol is removed from KG. People should learn how to fight, not spray cyanide everywhere.
@acerbt @Kaliah @threlm4280 Honestly I disagree, I mean in the most gental way possible but if people should learn how to fight rather than spraying cyanide everywhere, then it could also be said that people should learn how to avoid the cyanide pistol.
@samtupy @acerbt @Kaliah @threlm4280 Avoiding a pistol that continuously stacks and stacks gas upon you that drains all your health is difficult when, again, masks are rare. Not to mention it's not easy to avoid if someone rides up on a bike firing one. But alright, it's your game.
@acerbt @Kaliah @threlm4280 To be clear thank you for the suggestions - I am not trying to be utterly dismissive or anything. And yeah I will give you that bike+cyanide is a pretty difficult combo to fight off. But the reason I don't think it's all that special is because for example take the m1208. That thing kills you in 2 shots at default stats, actually faster than tripple tapping someone with cyanide and waiting, and the m1208 actually has more spread than the cyanide pistol. Add a quad to the m1208 and it is really and truly over. Same for many other weapons, I have to learn that if I hear any hint of a cyanide pistol sound in the distance, I run run run and pull out the longest range weapon I have and go after them. If they have a bike and I don't, I'm probably done for. But if they have a bike and I don't, that's probably the case anyway because they can circle me with any weapon. Even if someone hits me with cyanide once and I can run fast enough, that one hit won't kill me. I'll keep an ear open to opinions on that though.
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 I'm at a bit of a middle ground here, I do think it’s fine to have that weapon there. But I do think mask spawns could definitely be made a bit more common to help with the balance of that
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 Yeah I think that would do wonders for the slight OP of it. It's pretty easy to find air, just not super easy to find a mask. Even if masks were a bit more common you could, for instance, assign the mask to a favorite item and enable it when you hear that weapon coming, right now I just think masks might be a little too rare to make a strategy like that very viable. I'm not sure that removing it is the way to go, maybe I'm just biased because I like using it, but I definitely do think the balance could be adjusted so more people have a chance against it
@Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 You got it exactly, you don't even need stored air because the mask can be on for several seconds before you die of suffication. So if you have a mask but no stored air, you do exactly what you said - alt+control+arrow to assign it to a favorite item, then when you hear that weapon coming along, you can basically alt+arrow to toggle the mask on and off as needed during the fight to help you avoid the cyanide - that is exactly how I do it.
@Kaliah @samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 Not to mention a player doesn't always start out with a stored quad or a long ranged weapon, or an M1208. So you kind of have to improvise sometimes. And at times, this improvisations involve getting within the range of a cyanide pistol.
@Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 Yep I'll give you that, however only in the cases where you are attacked, not in the cases where you go do the attacking. If you start out with bad weapons and you decide to go kill someone before spending a few minutes collecting, that's on you. If within 3 minutes of spawning someone with cyanide pistol comes after you, sure like I said granted in that case you've got a bad hand in that particular fight.
@samtupy @Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 Yeah no, if I have a bad selection I never go after someone. I'll immediately try to gear up. Unless you spawn right next to someone which, hold on a sec. They have a cyanide pistol! Shiiit I'm toast LOL. That's where my point sort of branches from.
@Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 Yep I'll most certainly give you that, I mean just in general if you spawn with a short sword, a taser and a nunchaku 50 feet away from that dude who's been collecting for 45 minutes and is mid murder spree, that just sucks in general haha.
@Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 We can probably internally condense a player's general status into a floatingpoint score/weight variable from 0 to 1, and just not spawn the player very near someone who has a very high tanking score.
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 For sure. If you have time to collect, you should be more than able to improvise and strategize against it. If you spawn into someone with it, well that sucks but that’s kind of just bad luck, not anything you did wrong
@Kaliah @acerbt @threlm4280 Honestly of all things what your arguments against the cyanide pistol made me think of was to improve exactly that, the spawning. It would be totally reasonable to consider altering the kg spawn such that you won't spawn 50 feet away from a really tanked up player.
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 You could even rig the spawning a little bit to ensure that you start with at least one kind of each weapon, say make sure everyone starts with a shotgun, a melee weapon, and some kind of revolver or pistol, with a random chance of happening to have something else like a flamethrower. Just so everyone has a fair chance. Or like you said calculate where the most powerful players are and avoid spawning newbies within, say, a 100 foot radius of them.
@samtupy @acerbt @threlm4280 This is why I say add more masks. Don’t remove it entirely, but add masks more commonly so people have more of a chance. Sometimes that’s just the risk you have to take, you have to use the resources available to you in order to, like you said, improvise. Maybe you don’t have that specific gun, for example, but you have something else with long range. Use that then to avoid the pistol. There’s nearly always a way around it if you strategize well enough
@acerbt @Kaliah @threlm4280 A different way to say this might be that right now, I have to make a lot of careful judgement calls when I'm playing rs. Are they close enough? Will this weapon reach? Are they centered? These things require careful real world listening skill to determine, I need to be able to listen to speech very quickly and listen very carefully to the tracking beacon, try to be on their same jump height or stand still long enough to lure my target closer to me, I have to learn what weapons work best by trial and error. If auto tracking existed though I feel like all of that fun challenge would be simply replaced with the single goal of shooting when I hear a particular beep, and if I'm looking for a game where I react to a single or a few sounds, I can get into rhythm games or something that are actually designed for that. Following one instruction to shoot when I hear a specific sound seems so so so too easy for me, and I don't know what else I can do to reintroduce the same level of challenge with more down to earth and mainstream tracking systems.
@samtupy I'm actually a big fan of your idea there. Disabling collection would make it so that you have to seriously test your skills, see how things can go without the idea that you can collect more and be wreckless. I vote for this. It would open up more playstyles even, force survivors to use items in ways they never thought of before. Definitely a ton more fairness there than killing off the player entirely.
I just pushed an iOS #NVDARC update adding configurable VoiceOver actions while controlling a machine. This includes things such as sending keys and custom shortcuts, as well as performing actions of the app like muting speech/releasing modifiers. @techsinger
This is seriously smart. I didn't think of that, and it's perfection. Far better than keyboard shortcuts for everything, and easy to run from the hardware keyboard. It does work, and I have my shortcuts set up in the settings which took less than a minute and applies to all servers.
This is weird, and I suspect it's something I'm doing, though I'm not sure what. the actions are not appearing when I am on the disconnect button, or on the release all modifiers button, only when I go down to the "connected" item do I get the actions available and after that item, swiping through, the actions are available. By the actions being available, I mean both that VO says they are and that the rotor shows them as part of the options. Is that the way it should be, if I may ask, or should I be doing something to make them available everywhere. I have the "release all modifiers" action as part of the actions in settings.
I thought it would be too, but it seems to disappear sometimes, and I can't tell why, and release all modifiers is before it. Is that something you've seen?
It's not a huge one for me, but that's because I only have two machines I use as jumping off points. As I said, once I'm connected, I can use remote companion and vmware to go wherever I want. For people with a bunch of machines and who want keyboard only usage though, it might be an idea to have disconnect in the list so they can leave quickly.
on my opinion it could be not more 200B (10x less). I will do it manually and let you know. It will be intresting investigation. If I am wrong I also let you know.
by removing newlines, applying svgo and removing the filename with gzip -n (or using stdin), and using -9 (not making a diff here), it goes to 399 bytes.
some webservers have the option to serve pre-compressed static files if they are present next to the original. nginx supports `gzip_static on;`, `brotli_static on;`. (zstd too but needed an external module last time I checked) They can be created with a build step.
in our case for curl.se, the actual files are cached by the CDNs for six months anyway, so having the compression done by the origin server on demand is a negligible "cost" I think.
we don't need that trick. If we want to provide it compressed we just add that magic to our end's Apache config. My point is however that since it already is brotli compressed to most users, I don't think it does much use.
Did you check how small your svgo'ed version gets with the best brotli compression?
@NTICompass Thank you. stroke-linecap default value is butt, so we can remove from style for path, remove explisit style for path in tow places and add style stroke-linecap:round only for letters. It will save extra 40B
with further tweaks (and a little slash-fix that's adding 8 bytes), this goes down to 778 (w/ svgo 766, w/ brotli-11 345), tracked in PR: github.com/curl/curl-www/pull/…

We're back from our end of year break and working hard to get Thunderbird Pro out, we promise! We'll probably have a blog update this month or next on how we're doing and updates on our ETA. :)
Motivated by a thread I seen yesterday, I decided to create a #WebExtension that would display pkpass files as inline attachments.
I managed to get all the data from the pkpass files and process them, what is giving me trouble is actually getting a `document` that is not attached to a `window` to work with html2canvas.
Like how to screenshot a document which only exists in memory?

@samtupy I do not think this can litterally be beaten. I would like to see someone try though. Wish I recored this though, would have been my first clip on anyaudio! DRS ShotgunSpoon falls to the ground sperting blood thanks to conquering the killingground with 157 kills on the Foresty area of the killingground map.
This is incredible. An MTV simulator with almost 30,000 videos, organized by decade along with special sections for Headbanger's Ball and Yo! MTV Raps.
Oooh, a new use for my old brewing yeast, I could grow meat in the backyard 🤪
PHYS: "From pint to plate, scientists brew up a new way to grow meat... Yeast left over from brewing beer can be transformed into edible "scaffolds" for cultivated meat—sometimes known as lab-grown meat—which could offer a more sustainable, cost-effective alternative to current methods, according to a new study from UCL (University College London) researchers."

"....SCUM-SKIMMING wasn’t hard to learn. You got up at dawn. You gulped a breakfast sliced not long ago from Chicken Little and washed it down with Coffiest. You put on your coveralls and took the cargo net up to your tier. In blazing noon from sunrise to sunset you walked your acres of shallow tanks crusted with algae. If you walked slowly, every thirty seconds or so you spotted a patch at maturity, bursting with yummy carbohy-drates. You skimmed the patch with your skimmer and slung it down the well, where it would be baled, or rocessed into glucose to feed Chicken Little, who would be sliced and packed to feed people from Baffinland to Little America. ..."
“Fascism” has become one of the most misused words in modern political language. When everything we dislike is called fascism, the concept collapses — and so...
I'm quite impressed how #EndeavourOS, despite not being _glamorous_ or hyped up as some of the rest in the list - is doing quite well at ~2.12% of the #Linux #Steam users. Not **that** far off from something like #Bazzite (~5.89%) and is higher even than #Fedora, #Manjaro, and #PopOS. EndeavourOS was the boat I chose when I decided to leave #Windows few years back, and it's still going strong. Despite #ArchLinux having a rep to 'break', my PC and all of my family members' have yet to go through such a thing lol. Its rep of being not user-friendly to noobs is also not that true seeing how a solution to a problem, if any, is often one search away from the incredibly documented Arch Wiki - better than relying on hundreds of conflicting information scattered through distros' forums. I'm perfectly aware everyone's experience is unique to their own, esp with something as fragmented as Linux, but I'd be remiss not to mention that while my EndeavourOS experience has been flawless, I've had broken/borked systems with 2 #Debian/#Ubuntu based distros (not gonna name, names), Manjaro (Arch based, though some might not agree), and even Bazzite (Fedora based). These were with #Intel/#AMD systems too that's supposedly 'ideal', at least 2 of my EndeavourOS systems meanwhile have #NVIDIA GPUs (i.e. 'not ideal'). These were a couple of years ago tho before reaching my 'final distro', EndeavourOS tho so things may have improved for these distros too. All in all, my point is, despite not being the glamorous, popular option... THANK YOU to the EndeavourOS team for clearly putting in a ton of work to ensure our (supposedly) broken-prone systems to keep running stably.
