Sometimes I feel I have to respond to the most ridiculous statements to not leave them hanging.

bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrep…

"The old and new right-wing parties are amalgamating into a neoliberal and hyper-conservative ‘pleiad’ (social notables) that comprises neo-Christian fundamentalists, including Fatimists (a Catholic religious faction). The new desire to celebrate November 25 emerges from here. The latest extreme on the right is embodied in the anti-communism of IL (the Liberal Initiative) and the neo-fascism of Chega. The media normalizes it all as milquetoast ‘liberals’ rather than what they are – figures of the ‘radical / extreme right’. These groupings want to celebrate November 25 for what it was: a coup d’état against democracy at work, against the duality of popular power. In short, they want to celebrate the counter-revolution, the beginning of the end of the Revolution.

November 25 heralded Portugal’s reconstruction from a ‘national capitalism’ dependent on forced labour in its African colonies until 1974 to a subservient capitalism that is a de facto protectorate of the leading European power of Germany, France, and Britain. Portugal now helplessly depends on investments and capital goods from North America, Spain, China, and other countries.

The ostensible ‘democratic counter-revolution’ of 25 November 1975 is a central political event for understanding what happened in Portugal, and it was far less democratic and far more reactionary in its roots. As we rescue the authentic memory of the Carnation Revolution and lament its demise, no wonder Father Martins Júnior said in a piercing manner that what remains is “50 neo-fascists in the hemicycle 50 years after the April Revolution.”

The impossible became possible on that day 50 years ago. The dreams unleashed on April 25, 1974, neither have been vanquished nor fulfilled. The slogan could not be more urgent: April 25 forever, fascism never again!"

The Carnation Revolution of Portugal Today

In an unmistakable style in the form of a provocative lecture in Lisbon in 2024, at the age of 84 Father Martins Júnior asked: “50 years later, what irony! There are 50 fascists, one for each year, in Parliament.

Edited with a lot more resources and ways to get involved if you actually wanna get involved.

Hey non-disabled #Linux folk, sure would be fantastic if everyone pitched in on helping the blind and sighted allies making Linux more accessible to disabled users rather than warning us about the end of Windows 10, like we don't already know. Telling us something we already know doesn't help us switch to Linux because while you're lecturing us, Linux still has accessibility issues in the underlying infrastructures.

To start, Here’s a small, impactful thing you can do for now. There are bigger needs but making a fully accessible place one can research and compare distros would be a start. This website is linked to a lot. It’s inaccessible to screen magnifier users because the test is coded in such a way where elements appear behind other elements. All the links in the navigation area are empty and need labels. Making the quiz screen reader friendly by having regular web elements for questions such as radio buttons and other HTML elements without enabling an accessibility mode would be a fantastic start. distrochooser.de/

Here's some background on the recent state of Linux accessibility, and a project you can contribute to.

blogs.gnome.org/a11y/2023/10/2…

You can help the Fedora team make their KDE spin more accessible than it already is. fedoraproject.org/kde/

You can join their core accessibility group, discussion.fedoraproject.org/t…

Learn about the state of modern Linux accessibility. Video. youtube.com/watch?v=w9psDfEFf9…

Make more repositories, wiki's, websites, like Linux Access ORG, of accessible mainstream distros and other flavors/spins. Make accessibility guides. Do what big tech does for accessibility but do it better than them.

Help contribute to sites like linuxaccess.org/

Gnome's accessibility breakdown... ish. It's old but still valid for most. blogs.gnome.org/a11y/2023/10/2…

and contribute to projects such as Access Kit. accesskit.dev/

Lastly, there are a ton of blind mailing lists out there for linux. Read what they have to say. Here's just one of them, this thread provides more. inbox.the-brannons.com/blinux/…

#dei-team topics

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Team

^{Fedora Discussion}

My wife Kirsten @MoonCat and I started a podcast last September and we're having fun with it. Over 16 hours and 31 episodes in, we've covered topics such as:
How we first met.
Never going to sleep on an argument.
Double standards in a relationship.
The tech from our childhood.
Banning mobile/cellular phones in our children's schools.
The incorrect pronunciation of our names.
Our 16th wedding anniversary and much more.

We don't have sponsors, don't do ads, and none of what we say is scripted. It's raw, it's us and we hope you like it. Our only method of reaching new listeners like you is word-of-mouth so please do share if you've a mind to do so.

We're a blind sighted couple, I'm blind and she's fully-sighted, so we come at this from two quite different walks of life.

We are dealing with billionaire corporations and they can always do better. Never pay what they ask.

I ate pão de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) my first day in Brazil, and have loved it ever since. now, I've discovered we kind of have it here in the US, I invite you to try it out.

Q&A coming up, Saturday 26th at 3PM Eastern, 8PM UK
On the last of the Saturdays in April,
Join us, for your Q&A staple.
Ok fine, that wasn't a sublime rhyme,
I'm more of a reaper with poorly peepers than an Edgar Allan Poet.

As usual, me and Jen will be live starting at 3PM Eastern, taking and hopefully answering questions about REAPER and OSARA. Any amount of experience is welcome. Newcomers get first priority, then we get geeky in the gaps.
Head over to ReaperTeacher.com for TeamTalk details, to ask a question in advance, or to send in one of your recent projects if you'd like some feedback. That's proving to be a popular piece of the action, so don't dilly-dally, we'll be playing the first couple of things that arrive.
We'll also be streaming and taking questions from YouTube and the Blind Producers Discord server, that's at discord.gg/uPFzNHv4U7 if you want to join.

See ya there,

Scott

"Accessibility is difficult, working in an ableist society is difficult. Realizing that ableism runs wide in the accessibility community hurts.

This is a chance to think about our own values and how we apply them to our jobs. For me, supporting people to experience all their human rights equally is a fundamental value. Not only that, but I think inaccessibility violates people’s dignity."
