#Signal a deux défauts, et ils sont politiques :
- Il est étasunien;
- Il est centralisé.
C'est là où #Deltachat pourrait sortir son épingle du jeu. Je songe à y migrer. En attendant, je suis sur Signal depuis cinq ans et j'y reste; c'est déjà difficile de convaincre mon entourage…
Je pense que #Matrix, bien qu'ultra-sécurisé, est trop complexe pour ma mère; il restera sous-utilisé, à moins qu'on ne trouve une façon de l'encapsuler dans quelque chose de plus simple.
Suis-je seul à penser ça?

Frontend developers are returning to Vanilla JavaScript. Here's how native APIs and AI tools are making plain JS the cure for framework fatigue.Alexander T. Williams (The New Stack)

Dva boti? NE, správný počet je TŘI! Aby se @zpravobot a @slunkobot zabavili i v mezičase, kdy nic nepublikují, je tu i @hrubot, třetí do mariáše.
Hrubot přinese trochu jiné zprávy, ale neodpustí si jejich okomentování, a nedělá to v bílých rukavičkách, ne ne, je ironický, sarkastický, hrubý, je zkrátka Hrubot!

Tak abychom to shrnuli:
• @zpravobot pro vás má výběr ze zpráv z předešlého dne vždy ráno v 7:00.
• @slunkobot je šiřitelem pozitivních zpráv k odpolední kávičce vždy v poledne.
• @hrubot přináší lehce kontroverzní zprávy se svým naprosto úžasným hrubým, ironickým, sarkastickým komentářem vždy v 19:00.
Nezapomeňte je zaslonit a nechat se bavit…d8-D
Zprávobotí shrnutí zpráv je možná fajn, ale ke kávičce po dobrém obědě to nechce žádné drama, krvák, finanční ztráty na burze, ale pohodové čtení dobrých zpráv.
Navíc se @zpravobot nebude cítit tak osaměle, když tu bude mít věčně pozitivně naladěného parťáka @slunkobot, který neví, co je blbá nálada!

Check out this SendGrid account phishing message I received today.
The email claims that SendGrid will be adding a 'Support ICE' link to every email sent via their platform.
Of course 99.99% of orgs would want to opt-out if it were real, so this is an incredible lure to get SendGrid creds.
Also, if the bad guys are using opting out of supporting your organization as a lure, you know you done fucked up.
Hey, someone's boosted a cool bit of art from an artist on Fedi I haven't seen before! Clicking Like.
Clicking over to their posts, they have some other fun art I like! I'll just scroll a little more before clicking that Follow button...
"FYI I'm going to focus my efforts on Substack."
Backing away from Follow button forever.
Going to @fosdem this year? Me too! I'll even be babbling about the work we've done over the past couple of years to support Microsoft Exchange in @thunderbird - that'll be Saturday midday in the Modern Email devroom.
Question: what are y'all using as secret service on #Linux? (With #Wayland and #sway, if that matters.)
I did not like #GNOME #Keyring, because that pulled in tons of stuff I didn't want.
I'm currently using #KeePassXC, but let's just say it's a much better password manager than a Secret Service. (e.g., it can't remember authorized binaries over a session, and handling multiple databases isn't great.)
Ideally, I want something that does only this, but does it well.

I was using pdflatex to generate receipts for product purchases on my website, and I found it didn't have very good international multilingual unicode support. I found wkhtmltopdf, which works great for me. On a digitalocean debian server, I'm producing receipts that closely mimic my on-line HTML receipts in 16 languages. I highly recommend wkhtmltopdf.

I observe some weird behaviour from my organisations #outlook server. I use #thunderbird as a desktop client. When I send a message to an unknown recipent, the non delivery report gets flagged as junk from outlook and will never be delivered into the inbox. All support staff I am asking are trying to convice me, I am doing something wrong or that is just the way it is.
E.g. #microsoft says: "This is not a misconfiguration in the traditional sense (such as no broken SPF/DKIM/DMARC, no transport rules required). Rather, it relates to how EOP handles NDRs based on the originating client’s submission method. It aligns with Microsoft’s design: Outlook web/desktop clients receive preferential treatment for internal mail flow."
Anyone else observed similar problems?

Minidisc or cassette might be cooler, but honestly CDs are probably the easiest “retro” format to get into.
Used players are still relatively easy to come by and you can get a drive for your computer to burn audio CDs very easily; and there’s plenty of dirt cheap used CDs. (This CD Walkman is from Goodwill!)
Audio quality is top-notch, too.

LONDON (The Borowitz Report)—In a move that was widely hailed across
the free world, on Friday King Charles Ill of the United Kingdom
reasserted British rule over the colonies formerly known as the United
States of America.
“In recent days, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio and Stephen Miller have
been advocating a muscular return to colonialism,” the monarch said. “I
couldn't agree more with those chaps.”
“We lost the colonies because our King went insane,” Charles added.
“But now the shoe's on the other bloody foot, isn't it?”
As for what this change in status would mean for Trump, the King said,
“Perhaps he could room with his old chum, my idiot brother.”](https://fedi.ml/photo/preview/640/746885 "King Restores British Rule over U.S.

in reply to The Matrix.org Foundation • • •Do you have a roadmap of some sorts? As a casual user, it's a bit difficult to understand where the project is headed 🤔
Personally I'm looking for a replacement for my Discord-group that we can self-host, that also allows us to connect to a broader community. Matrix seems to align ideologically to what I want, but Element feels a bit cluttered and unintuitive tbh.

in reply to The Matrix.org Foundation • • •I mean, I open up Cinny and it's more or less the same as Element, as far as I can tell at least.
Are we able to have Spaces with Rooms, where certain Rooms only act as VOIP-rooms that you can join/leave as you wish? I see a button up right in Element that allows you to start a video-call inside of a room, but I can't seem to use that unless I've got permission. Does that call everybody in the room somehow, or?
