Ordering a sammich on doordash. The page has a section to add dressings, and another section to add sauces and condaments. I do not understand this. I feel like it is a distinction without a difference.
I recently bought an iPhone SE 2022 and am switching back to IOS from Android. One of the things I liked about my Galaxy A15 is that it told me when my battery reached eighty percent and then stopped charging. My iPhone doesn't do this. I also don't have a regular charging schedule, since I use my phone more on some days than others, so the optomisation feature doesn't really help me. I want to charge my phone when the battery drops to twenty percent, or ten percent at the lowest and stop charging it at eighty percent, unless I really need the extra charge. I downloaded AllMyBatteries and set up notifications, but I often don't hear them and it's charged to a full 100% several times already. Can anyone please help me find a solution to this? I am a VoiceOver user and strictly use an external keyboard. I have both an Orbit Writer and a regular qwerty keyboard, so directions with either are fine. I know there is a way to create automated shortcuts, but the last time I tried it, it didn't really work for me. Is there a better program that I can download? Some of the features of AllMyBatteries aren't fully accessible.
It’s kind of hard to believe that it’s been five years. I remember deciding to have a nap instead of watching the vote certification. Then I was awakened by a friend calling, and the first words out of their mouth was “they’re storming the Capitol.” That day is stamped into my memory as indelibly as 9/11. Every year we are told, ad nauseam, to #NeverForget 9/11. Conversely, we are being told, in many sometimes imperceptible ways, to forget January 6. And, dammit, it’s working. Not for me, though. I sure as hell remember. And I’ll #NeverForget #Jan6
But, what's the big deal? I don't get it. They weren't happy that they lost the election. Is it, like, against the law or something to storm the Capitol and beat up police officers and try to hang the vice-President when your guy loses the election?

“Accessibility is often treated as something that can be counted, graded, or “passed.” But accessibility is not a single outcome. It’s not a feature, and it’s not a binary state. Binary answers may feel simpler, cheaper, and easier to communicate, but they rarely deliver the outcomes teams are actually trying to achieve.”
If you're running Windows and still using WinImage for handling basic floppy disk images, it is time to retire it. It served us well, but there is now a replacement called DiskImageTool that is superior in every conceivable way and is completely free and open source.
The latest version adds a small drag & drop feature I requested, and it's just the final touch that makes it a perfect replacement for me.
Today I'm feeling incredibly grateful not to be in pain. My hand is still swollen for some reason unknown to me, and I still want to have a doctor look it over, but, yesterday, I probably would have described the pain as maybe a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10, although I wouldn't claim to be any good at self-reporting these things. Reminds me not to take things for granted.
I’ve decided that it’s very silly to have a phone just for scrolling TikTok when there are other things I want, so I am selling a pixel 10 Pro for $500. It’s unlocked, 128 GB, and it’s obsidian, which is a deep black with hints of blue like the night sky.
Yummy price, how's the shhipping and such. I kinda forgot where you are. I already have the 9 Pro so it would be kinda silly to upgrade but the price is not bad.
More everyday Americans need to understand that the people in power sincerely believe that vaccines are weakening the gene pool of their labor force and their promotion of vaccine skepticism is a form of culling. And that’s not even a conspiracy theory, it’s right in front of us.
Ich weiß nicht genau, was ihr damit meint, wenn ihr sagt: „Früher war der CCC weniger politisch“, aber Nazi-Webseiten offline zu nehmen, war auf dem #23C3 auch schon ein Ding.
Der einzige für mich erkennbare Unterschied ist, dass damals im Hackcenter noch mehr gekifft wurde.
Gott, ich erinner mich sehr gut an den 23C3. Ich hab damals so viel - passiv - gekifft, dass ich, nachdem ich einen X Server mit aalib gepatched hatte, und KDE und XMMS darauf lief, gackernd unter'm Tisch lag.
CCC war immer schon politisch. Das war von anfang an die Grundhaltung.
Heute ist's halt absoluter Mainstream geworden. Die Themen gehen jetzt nicht nur theoretisch sondern ganz praktisch jeden Bürger an. Sprich eigentlich Alles ist heute auch in der 'normalen' Politik zu finden.
I need employment, *urgently*. I am not picky. My family needs to eat, and that overrides everything else. Please, does anybody out there work at a company that has machine learning or Python programming positions? Would you be willing to recommend me? I can demonstrate my abilities to you, first, if you need convincing, or I can share git repos.
To all you creatives out there with very understandable fears about AI...create. Get creating! Don't stop! Your creations matter. The corporations running AI who want to optimise us out of existence want us to believe our creations don't matter any more, that they can't compete. they want that hopelessness. Once you start creating, feeling it, that noise dials down. Keep on keeping on!
I know that you might get tired of my words, but we are still suffering and the situation is very bad. We didn't receive any donations for three days. Please donate and share to help my family overcome this tough time
People who grew up playing Zork and other Infocom games know that chat interfaces don't have to be perfect to be magical. Conversational interfaces are awesome, and it's amazing to see them develop.
The trouble is that a lot of the hype is based around chatbots not being an interface, but a universal knower and doer, as a kind of silver bullet for automation in general, as well as a creator of code, text, images, movies, etc.
When the chatbot is an interface, the skill and effort remain with the user. They are using a conversational interface to make something worth making or to find something worth knowing, and that skill and effort is what makes it valuable.
When the idea is you can offload the knowing and doing to the AI, that the chatbot is not an interface but a skilled servant, then it's presumed that the user isn't adding any skill or effort of their own. This is where things go off the rails.
Feasibility comes into question, like can "AI" (LLMs, etc.) really know and do things without human skill and knowledge? Early results don't look good. And economic questions, like if it can be produced with no skill and effort, is it worth anything?
One is a small set of companies effectively prevents competition by hoarding capital, hardware, and network resources, effectively blocking new entrants and stifling innovation. Let's call that the #enshittification path.
The other is that companies focus on conversational interfaces, not on the agency of the chatbot, but on the agency of the people using them, whether they are shopping, creating software, writing, or whatever, focusing on maximizing the agency of the person.
While the #enshittification path depends on centralization and hoarding to create an all-knowing oracle, the #dialogic path depends on diffusion, openness, and human-centred design to create a powerful, expressive lever for human agency.
With the dialogic path, you've effectively captured something that I've been thinking about. I regularly find myself revisiting the capacities of these new AI systems. I find myself always landing on a mixture of disappointed and impressed. The impressed part is outweighed by my disappointment.
But, for example, the chat interface to OCR is pretty useful. I wanted a serial number off of an access point the other day. I snapped a picture and sent it to my desktop.
I looked at it, and I had the "I wonder" thought, and I asked for the serial number AND MAC address. The system faithfully ignored the other information and presented what I asked for. I double-checked, and everything was accurate. That was legitimately cool.
What I don't like is that I don't have a lot of control or insight over these things. Ideally, I would be able to evaluate and plug and play these with a combination of models and deterministic plugins. Starting with a canvas and building my ideal user agent from the ground up. I don't want this to be folded into a web browser because I think having them as discrete tools is useful and adds a layer of cognitive protection.
I have found a few desktop applications that sort of gesture towards this, but I'm not seeing anything that feels good in the way my IDE or web browser feel good.
Admittedly, the knowledge of how these systems operate currently sort of saps any good feeling one might have away.

wow I had no idea that smartmontools added json output years ago
this fixes some annoying issues I have parsing it because there are some fields that have names that are not consistent (Device Model or Model Number) which are normalized in the json version of the data as model_name
The raw SMART attributes (temperature, power-on lifetime, and so on) are stored in vendor-specific structures. Sometime these are strange. Hitachi disks (at least some of them) store power-on lifetime in minutes, rather than hours (see next question below). IBM disks (at least some of them) have three temperatures stored in the raw structure, not just one. And so on.
For anyone backing up a pleroma instance DB, if you're using an sql backup (all variants of pg_dump) - YA DON'T HAVE A WORKABLE RESTORE WITHOUT SOME MASSAGING! You MUST have indexes pre-created to load data. Post creation of indexes effectively won't work...unless your DB is small.
Soooo I think I know what causes the restores to basically never complete, maybe...I'm near the limits of my psql debugging capability because I've never hit this so I actually don't exactly know how to see what the CREATE INDEX is actively doing... But tl;dr; 1.8T rows. One Point Eight TRILLION rows. But...HOW?!
The dump+load upgrade method I tend to use causes this. In the default mode it creates the schema (sequences setup, all the functions, that sort of thing, BUT NO INDEXES), loads the data, then creates the indexes.
The index it's never finishing creating is calling this function:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.activity_visibility(actor character varying, recipients character varying[], data jsonb)
RETURNS character varying
LANGUAGE plpgsql
IMMUTABLE PARALLEL SAFE SECURITY DEFINER
AS $function$
DECLARE
fa varchar;
public varchar := 'https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public';
BEGIN
SELECT COALESCE(users.follower_address, '') into fa from public.users where users.ap_id = actor;
IF data->'to' ? public THEN
RETURN 'public';
ELSIF data->'cc' ? public THEN
RETURN 'unlisted';
ELSIF ARRAY[fa] && recipients THEN
RETURN 'private';
ELSIF not(ARRAY[fa, public] && recipients) THEN
RETURN 'direct';
ELSE
RETURN 'unknown';
END IF;
END;
$function$
Well. users is ~500k rows, and this function would be called for the ~3.7M activities rows....at a point in time where users has no indexes! So each invocation of activity_visibility would scan ~500k rows, times 3.7M rows in activities, and .... that's ~1.8T rows.
Why did I footgun myself like this when pg_upgrade exists? Well, binary incompatibilities, index collation differences, in the past causing Major Heartburn. I'm not going to dive into how it might be possible to fix the dump+load procedure, since, well, yeah. But for anyone backing up a pleroma DB be warned. Either take a binary copy (f/ex pg_basebackup) or dump schema and data seperately so you can load the data with indexes. Or find another workaround!
Over the weekend, did you see the much-shared story on Reddit by a supposed whistleblower?
It started like this: "I’m a developer for a major food delivery app. The 'Priority Fee' and 'Driver Benefit Fee' go 100% to the company. The driver sees $0 of it. I’m posting this from a library Wi-Fi on a burner laptop because I am technically under a massive NDA. I don’t care anymore."
A “whistleblower” tried to corroborate his viral post with AI-generated evidence. This is how I caught him. PLUS: Grok's image-generation crisis, and the rapture over Claude Opus 4.5
Basically he advocates that a retaliation with the US fucking trade treaties that nation void the anti-circumvention laws. That's the very short version.

😭 Noooo. Hat jemand diese Tasse von den @MRMCD 2024 im Schrank stehen und braucht sie nicht? Ich würde mich extrem freuen. Tausche z.B. auch gern gegen die von 2019 oder 2025. Es ist eine meiner Lieblingstassen gewesen, weil ich Größe, Form und Farbe so schön finde.
Edit: es hat sich jemand gemeldet, vllt wird eine aus ihrem Keller-Dasein erlöst. 🤞
For everyone who enjoys discovering new music, I have a set of tools that can help. Shaq-GUI consists of three applications, each serving a different purpose: 1. shaqgui.exe – a simple application that listens to a selected input or output of your computer and saves whatever it recognizes to a file. 2. shaqfilegui.exe – do you have old radio shows archived somewhere and want to know which songs were played in them? This app will definitely help. 3. shaqcast.exe – something for radio broadcasters who play music from CDs, vinyl, etc., and want to send the titles of the tracks they’re playing to a server. For now it supports Shoutcast; if needed, I can add support for Icecast as well. Everything is accessible with screen readers: github.com/michaldziwisz/shaq-… You can download the programs here: gitrls.com/michaldziwisz/shaq-… Feel like you could add something, improve it, or help with development? I’m open to pull requests.
Seeking recommendations for a reliable, accessible platform to host a support/discussion email list/listserv/snapshot of the 90's with around 1000 members. We're with GroupsIO right now but I'm tired of their in-browser inaccessibility. Cheap would be brilliant as my group doesn't directly make money, can pay something for solid service, accessibility and responsive support though.
I probably don't fancy self-hosting this much traffic.
@jaybird110127 Reading/searching archives on the web is grim and it seems like they're A-B testing something in the back-end most times I log in. Haven't used the app for reading firsthand but I'm seeing reports that's regressing too. Support haven't replied to anything since switching on monetization, presumably because we're there for free.
I don't know the address of this, but apparently there's a Beta group where support is active. There's also a Group Managers' Forum, but apparently no one from Groups.io is actually there, it's just for support among members, so that wouldn't be the right place to raise any concerns.
I don’t know if the Business package does mailing lists yet, but I’ve just switched accessibility online over to proton, because the web and apps on LINUX became accessible when I had my back turned.
RWP doesn't generate much traffic. My VPS had 83 Gigs of traffic last month, that is about 2 to 3 gigs a day, way less than my usual monthly traffic at home. What I want to say is, traffic for text like on RWP is not an argument to deny self-hosted services lol.
@ToniBarth Isn't email delivery fiddly to keep consistent though? Had pretty rough reliability in the past when we were on a VPS, but admittedly I wasn't hands-on with improving that because I didn't (and still wouldn't) know what I'm doing.
Runs pretty smoothly here. Its not like we need to run self-hosted, but we shouldn't stop looking into that direction, just in case something comes up that looks promising.
@diffrentcolours I use MailmanLists for the mailing lists of the social groups I organise. The pricing goes up as your list grows, but 2,000 members is less than 5 EUR/month (less if you pay annually). Haven't had any problems with deliverability or support.
@pwaring @diffrentcolours Fair warning that unless it's recently been overhauled, Mailman has a UI that seems to have been frozen some time in the 1990s. Which in some ways is a selling point in its favour, and in other ways means it doesn't make consistent use of accessibility-friendly innovations like headings, landmarks, skip links, and live regions.
