Hi there.

I'm a big ol' Docker idiot.

I need to add a private key to a docker environment, specifically referencing this projects:
github.com/mattmelling/asl-zel…

I guess I need Docker Basics 101, since I don't really have much experience with it.

I have built the thing based on it's included docker file. Now I need to add this private key before launching it with docker run.

The README expects one knows how to actually use docker, which I suppose is fair. So, do I run a minimal something so I can shell into it and create files before running the complete environment, or what?

Mount the local keyfile as a volume inside the container by adding something like this to the `docker run` command:

-v local\path\to\private.key:/container/path/to/private.key:ro

Then tell the project where to find the in-container keyfile as the GitHub page indicates.

(Note: I'm assuming you're on Windows with the backslashes there, but change to forward slashes in the host path if not.)

Ich teste momentan ja :gnome: #Gnome unter #Fedora auf meinem Arbeitsgerät, während ich eigentlich seit Jahren privat und vorher beruflich #KDE #Plasma gewohnt bin.

Weiß noch nicht ob ich dabie bleibe. Ich muss mich ehct bei sehr vielen DIngen umgewöhnen und einiges umbiegen bzw. nach meinen Bedürfnissen konfigurieren. Aber eigentlich will ich den Desktop ja nicht zu stark verbiegen...
An anderen Stellen vermisse ich Features.

Nein, ist natürlich nicht alles blöd: Gnome ist wirklich schick und fühlt sich wie aus einem Guss an, außerdem gibt es auch wirklich tolle #GnomeCircle Apps.

Gibt es tolle Exklusiv-Features oder Workflows, die ich mir mal anschauen sollte? 👀

I'm making a sofrito. Just with an onion and two tomatoes, finely chopped, and some salt.

The trick is to let the onions cook slowly. In Spanish, this is called ‘pochar’ - to poach in oil. It gives the onions a complexity of flavour, and then once they’re translucent, in go the finely chopped vine tomatoes (I peeled these, because they’re delicious but the skin is a little tough) again, simmering slowly, to bring out that magical change that happens to slow cooked tomatoes. #cooking

One of the things I love most about a lot of Spanish #cooking is that, often, there aren’t a lot of ingredients. The object is to let the few that are there shine. Which is why we’re so picky about ingredients down here. Good olive oil, good tomatoes, good onions, good clams and a nice manzanilla to steam the clams in with some garlic.

The complexity of flavour tends, I think, to come from the method of cooking, rather than seasonings.

I've officially finished the email<=>XMPP gateway grant 🎉. Lot of stuff done. The gateway is working but there are still things to do, notably finishing the e2ee encryption which is complex.

I'll most probably blog about it (and the previous A/V one) next week.

Mastodon feels like the future the 1980s promised us. "Oh look, a post from my friend at hacker.space, and what a funny comment from some guy on gaysex.cloud, perhaps I should follow them, they seem witty."

It feels like you could turn a corner and wind up in a tearoom filled with furries discussing existentialism. Across the street are anarchists arguing loudly with socialists about how best to stick it to the capitalists.

Just down the way is a photographer who only takes pictures of bees.

Well done to whoever is putting fake signs taking the piss out of the local council!

The city full of tongue-in-cheek road signs:

After paying for hotel rooms to shelter homeless people, Seattle deliberately left them vacant.

By the end of 2024, taxpayers were spending $4,200 a month per empty room at a time when thousands of residents were without a roof over their heads.

Seattle Paid for Shelter Beds That It Left Vacant Despite a Massive Need for Housing

Early last year, the city signed a $2.7 million lease extension to continue using a hotel’s rooms as shelter space. Yet despite committing to pay the rent, the city stopped sending people there.

Back when Slackware installed completely without setting a root password I was plugging away on IRC and started to hear this beeping from my computer.

WTF?

After a while I tracked it down and it was that root had tried to open a screen session with me but I was using X.

Did you consider doing so?

Sooooo. This happened.

Crypto markets crashed after Trump threatened an extra 100% tariff on China, triggering $19.1B+ in liquidations, 10x+ the liquidations during the FTX crash

Quebec launches new childcare registration platform

ctvnews.ca/montreal/article/qu…

> “There’s still the issue of data security. We’ve heard about problems in the past, and while the government says it’s made the new system safe, it’s still a concern for parents and for us. We just hope they’re working really hard on it,” Peyric said.

WAAAAAT?

Shouldn't security be blocking?


Quebec to launch new government-run childcare registration platform

As of the beginning of November, the Quebec government will launch and administer a new platform for childcare registration in the province.

Zoom just continues to impress in the worst way with their desktop screen reader #accessibility.
Here's the label for a button at the top of the calendar view on Windows. no, this is not copied speech. This is the actual label of an actual button. There is no ARIA on that button except for the label. Are you sitting down?
Okay, here goes:
"Select Calendar Date, Combo box, Today, Oct 8 collapsed, October 8, 2025".
Again. That is the *label* of a button according to NVDA. I copied that text directly off the page.
So, given that we've just been told this is a collapsed combo box, and Zoom considered this information so important that they put it in the label when they couldn't figure out how to use ARIA or semantic HTML correctly, which of the following statements do you think are true?
A. If I press the arrow keys in focus mode, the date will adjust.
B. If I press alt+down arrow, the combo box should open so I can pick a date without refreshing the page.
C. None of the above.
Yeah, it's C. This isn't a combo box at all. It's a button which pops up a standard calendar view. No combo boxes in there either, and the buttons use the words "Selected" or "Not selected" at the *end* of their labels, and the escape key won't close it.
What kind of person calls something a combo box when it doesn't have one single bit of resemblance to a combo box? The same kind of person that can figure out how to put an ARIA label on a button but can't figure out how to use roles, states, and expanded properties, I suppose?
Congratulations, Zoom. you make over a billion dollars per quarter and managed to hire a web accessibility guy who did everythin wrong and nothing right.

It’s Nobel Prize season again. News reports are coming out each day sharing the name of the illustrious winner of the various categories — Science, Literature, etc. But there’s one of the prizes that’s a little different. Well, that’s putting it lightly… you see, the Nobel Prize in Economics is not a real Nobel. It wasn’t created by Alfred Nobel. It’s not even called a “Nobel Prize,” no matter what the press reports say.

alternet.org/2012/10/there-no-…


There Is No Nobel Prize in Economics

It's awarded by Sweden's central bank, foisted among the five real prizewinners, often to economists for the 1% -- and the surviving Nobel family is strongly against it.

Every day, I write down ten things in life I am grateful for. It’s a good practice that keeps things in perspective. I wanted to share one of those things today.
While I fund the CaneAndAble.social instance and am pleased to make that contribution to the independent social media I believe in, I don’t play much part at all in moderating. That often time-consuming, often thankless task is handled by @lynessence.
Had she not agreed to do it, I probably wouldn’t have accepted public sign-ups. Doing moderation well takes grace, skill and patience, and lately, elements who would destroy the community blind people have built on this platform across multiple instances have tested those qualities.
So, thank you, Lynette. You’re a star. You’ve ensure that our users here on CaneAndAble.social are supported and as safe as possible. And you do all these things as a volunteer.

Host Europe & DomainFactory are migrating their users' emails to MS 365 – and users are not happy. 🤯

GoDaddy turned trusted German hosters into a textbook case of #enshittification.

Time to switch to truly European alternatives. ✌️

Screenshot of a tweet - “After over 15 years as a customer with #Hosteurope, canceled, after they said that all email accounts had to be migrated to Outlook without being asked and against an extra fee. Was a sack full of work having to move 18 websites and domains...” - with the title #enshittification
