For Adlib music fanboys like me
My manager had a regularly scheduled all hands meeting, which included a lot of people. He ambushed me (in a good way) with a tribute to me. It started out with the intro music to the def sec podcast and a slide with some funny things I instituted/commonly said at work. There was a parade of people saying nice things and then he asked me to say some words. I held it together for about 30 seconds and then, me an oversized, over the hill seasoned vice president of a Fortune 500 company, broke down crying in front of several hundred people.
Anyhow, I hope your Thursday is good.
Dass sind mir die liebsten Meilensteine bei #streetcomplete
Jede Information macht die #openstreetmap Karte besser, aber Informationen zur Barrierefreiheit sind sehr nützlich.
Vielleicht sind bald Routings für Blinde und Rollifahrer möglich.
Wobei niemand vergessen sollte:
Wenn du lange lebst dann wirst du Behinderungen durch Alter oder Krankheit bekommen und auf Barrierefreiheit angewiesen sein.

"Happy Birthday", coded from scratch with html and js with WebAudio. Entirely synthosized with no midi or samples. WebAudio is insane!

Yes, Safari on Mac.
I suspect this might be related to one of the audio formats being unsupported, I know Apple has some issues with that. Perhaps you should look into what formats are compatible and how to transcode them properly with ffmpeg.
TBH most if not all media platforms (including Mastodon) transcode, it's only the tiny little blindy ones that don't.
There's nothing wrong with having a "download original" option, of course.

@kc I'd love to know if any automated tests were used as part of atlasdigitalebarrierefreiheit.…
I didn't see any listed, but not sure how this list of sites can be maintained without it.
Obviously involving people with disabilities to test and evaluate is critical too. Automated testing will only ever get so far.

Kann #MIXXX die Visualisierungen von Liedern auch überlagernd anzeigen und nicht nur übereinander in zwei Reihen?
So oder so ähnlich wie im Screenshot.
It's a little dream come true. I always wanted to host a #radioshow straight from my bedroom. That little setup has got me covered. ;)
(Just prerecording, though, not transmitting live. The setup prolly has some room for improvement, too)

Mixxx 2.5 Beta Released!
Before releasing 2.5 as the next stable release, we need it to be tested thoroughly, something we can't do all on our own. After some time looking at the same release and searching for solutions, we might overlook minor bugs or problems.
Check it out and let us know how it works for you!

#AI
Choose how you want to navigate the web with Firefox
We're launching an opt-in experiment offering access to preferred AI services in Firefox Nightly for improved productivity as you browse.Kristina Bravo (The Mozilla Blog)
As #Mozilla is busy adding AI crap to #Firefox, I would like to point out that it's about 13 years since they removed the #RSS button from default Firefox GUI, and six years since RSS support was completely dropped from Firefox.
Thus making feeds invisible and impossible to discover for most web users.
RSS/Atom/JSON feeds are an immensely useful and important tech that can help solve the content discovery problem *without* going through gatekeepers. 👀
But obviously not a priority for Mozilla.
