Re: last boost (dragonscave.space/@TheQuinbox/โฆ) about Fedra, @TheQuinbox's new Mastodon client, what makes this project notable to me is that it's written in Rust and uses wxDragon, a project to provide Rust bindings for wxWidgets. The result is a desktop application with top-tier accessibility for screen reader users, in a self-contained executable that's quite small by modern standards (~10 MB for Fedra). I hope this project will become a reference for future applications by and for blind people.

Girl-type-entity who almost got 5 and a half hours sleep.
For those of you without ADHD or AuDHD, or insomnia for different reasons, that's about as much as we can expect to get most nights.
It's been about our average over the last month.
Our realistic target is 6+ hours.
Our ideal is 7+ hours. .
Anything much beyond 7 is a luxury we don't get to experience any more, except on very rare occasions.
8+ hours of actual sleep, not just time in bed, on a regular basis just isn't on the cards for us.

With all the snow that will surely still be on the ground tomorrow, I have a funny feeling my root canal won't be happening then. We'll see, I guess. #MakeItStop
As predicted, my appointment tomorrow got canceled. We got a foot of snow on the ground. This is the south. Yeah... who saw that coming?

Oh, OK then. As you were.

Heute ist der zweite Digital Independence Day.
Wรคre heute nicht ein guter Tag, um einen Messenger auszuprobieren, der einen offiziellen Standard nutzt, d.h. den Weg von Instant Messaging zu Independent Messaging zu beschreiten?
Einen ganz einfachen Weg, der deine persรถnlichen Bedรผrfnisse berรผcksichtigt und dabei auch die Souverรคnitรคt deiner Mitmenschen verbessert, findest du hier: imday.de/
Viel Erfolg!

Carpe Diem!
Today is the second Digital Independence Day.
And I think it is the perfect day to make the step from instant messaging to independent messaging.
Find your personal way to make a change:
English: imday.de/en/
Francais: imday.de/fr/
Deutsch: imday.de/de/
And (last but not least): Following the instruction will also improve the digital sovereignty of your friends.
Good Luck!
Good morning everyone!!! :)
Iโve had a long and crappy week especially with this horrible weather.
Always remember to be kind to each other and you matter so much. You deserve the best and most amazing moments.
Today we are gonna be talking about hyperbolic orbits
A hyperbolic orbit describes the path of an object that passes through a gravitational system only once and never returns. Unlike circular or elliptical orbits, a hyperbolic trajectory is open, meaning the object has enough speed to escape the gravity of the body it encounters. In our solar system, some comets and interstellar objects follow hyperbolic orbits, briefly swinging past the Sun before heading back into deep space. These paths have an eccentricity greater than one, a key mathematical signature of escape. Hyperbolic orbits are important because they reveal objects that originated elsewhere. A few examples include Oumuamua and 31/ATLAS.

I didnโt get a chance to ask the question during the panel, so Iโll ask it out-loud here :)
I tend to have a mental model of behaviour that I think about on social media: interaction level and collective level.
If you want to moderate interaction level content, then thatโs things like โis this image problematicโ or โis this person harassing someone elseโ and so on. That seems to be what the DSA mostly addresses? Which is great! We need more protection there
But the collective level is something Iโm curious about: what happens when attacks are designed to be โharmlessโ or โnot violatingโ at the interaction-level, yet deeply harmful at the collective level? How does one defend against a synthetic threat carefully designed to target a vulnerable collective in a way that no interaction level defense is really capable of handeling?
Do we have regulations around this yet? Is it a problem weโre trying to address at the governance level? (I know the tooling is nearly non existent, but slowly starting to emerge. It would be encouraging to see similar momentum in governance)

@modulux A good example would be identifying a wave of spam from multiple individual accounts, each one being a โnormalโ amount of traffic, but the aggregate being a disproportionate amount of volume.
Another would be a group that targets a subset of a community with messages that, individually, do not break any rules but the combined result is that the targeted community members feel so unwelcome that they canโt participate safely in the space without harming their mental health.
When done severely enough and targeted enough, it can erode a community over time to the point where it collapses
#IrรจneMontero, ancienne #ministre #espagnole de l'รgalitรฉ :
ยซ J'espรจre que la thรฉorie du Grand Remplacement permettra de balayer les fascistes et les racistes de ce pays ยป.
Question :
Le #GrandRemplacement n'รฉtait pas une thรฉorie #complotiste d'#ExtrรชmeDroite ?
๐
Le problรจme ne date pas d'hier.
Il y a des gens de gauche et d'extrรชme gauche qui se dรฉtestent parce qu'ils sont blancs. Ils essaient donc d'effacer, via le "multiculturalisme" et le "grand remplacement", une identitรฉ qu'ils dรฉtestent.
Ils dรฉtestent Noรซl, ils dรฉtestent l'histoire de France, pour eux l'histoire de France commence en 1789.
J'ai un ami sรฉnรฉgalais qui est dรฉputรฉ de gauche au Sรฉnรฉgal. Il me le dit souvent : "Vous avez la gauche la plus bรชte au monde."

La gauche d'aujourd'hui aime le patriotisme, l'identitรฉ et la culture des pays รฉtrangers, mais dรฉteste le patriotisme, l'identitรฉ et la culture de son propre pays.

Cette vidรฉo confirme malheureusement mon analyse.
#MichelHouellebecq avait identifiรฉ trรจs tรดt dรจs le milieu des annรฉes 2000 une ligne de fracture idรฉologique majeure.
La question raciale a progressivement supplantรฉ la question sociale. Le discours sโest dรฉplacรฉ vers une lecture du monde fondรฉe sur la culpabilitรฉ collective.
Pour la gauche et l'extrรชme gauche lโยซ homme blanc ยป est รฉrigรฉ en figure du mal historique, moral et politique.

Exactement.
D'ailleurs, le patron du #PCF (#PartiCommunisteFranรงais), #FabienRoussel, a estimรฉ que le #racisme #antiblanc existait.

How hard can it be to develop a good software stack when you give it away for free?
Neil covers how Element has been faring and what the future holds to keep the world open and decentralised
There should also be possibility to manage matrix and xmpp chats through thunderbird but I haven't used it.
What's quite weird in matrix is the identity verification method when you associate devices to account that asks you if emojis match. So you have to learn emoji by heart like the game "simon says" but for the rest, the Element web and mobile clients are pretty good.
