unfortunately flathub is annoying again: github.com/flathub/chat.delta.… looks like the generation of the static #npm packages failed again. Maybe it needs updated flathub-builder tools to become more reliable...
anyways too late already, I apologise for the release delay though. (I am still a bit sick, so progress is slower than I'd like)
Did a figure study using the charcoal brush pack I found for Krita. If you're interested in trying the brushes, you can find them here: files.kde.org/krita/extras/cha…
I wrote "Building an #Asynchronous, Internet-Optional Instant Messaging System" today. It suggests using #DeltaChat (@delta) across an #email system that can run on non-IP networks to achieve #IM coverage without having to have an Internet backbone, using things like #NNCP, #Syncthing, #Filespooler, and such. I love the ways we can combine interesting tools like this!
As it turns out @Raspberry_Pi didn’t apologize for its social post yesterday because they think people are dogpiling or brigading on them, as @stokel so helpfully reported: buzzfeednews.com/article/chris…

You could see what happens if you tell it to disable background usage. Privacy Browser should not be using any CPU in the background (it pauses JavaScript timers in the background), so disabling nonexistent CPU usage shouldn’t cause any problems.
Although, as you suggested, sometimes these messages are poorly worded. Perhaps it doesn’t like Privacy Browser consuming RAM in the background. Moving it out of RAM doesn’t typically save any battery power because, as I understand it, the RAM consumes the same amount of power whether or not there is data sitting in it.
If you run Clear and Exit when you are done with Privacy Browser, either through the Navigation menu or by closing the last tab, that should completely remove Privacy Browser from RAM as well as guarantee there is nothing left that could possibly use the CPU.

Huge win for privacy: Facebook tracking is illegal in Europe!
EU privacy regulators say Facebook and Instagram must not force users to agree to tracking by putting this requirement into their terms. In the future, Facebook must add a clear Yes & No option through which you can accept being tracked - or deny it! #Fight4Privacy 💪

We are dropping the Autotools build for GTK 3.x, and have fully switched to Meson. If you package GTK 3 and you are still using Autotools, now is the time to switch.
The next GTK 3 release, 3.24.46, will drop support for building with Autotools. GTK has been using Meson in its main development branch since 2016, and in the gtk-3-24 branch since 2018. While we did not officially support the Meson build in the 3.
To those still wondering what kind of performance improvement Meson brings to an established project over Autotools, here are some numbers from the Yocto project after they switched their native GTK3 build recipe:

The accessibility for the blind advent calendar: Day 9 - Belgium - expand the content warning to open the window for the day.
Back in 2018 I spent a month in Brussels. It was the first time I lived in a capital city so it was quite a stressful experience: not much time, a couple of routes to learn, pretty loud and congested streets and trash bags put directly on the pavements - an easy target to hit with a white cane. I enjoyed it though and one takeaway I've got is how easy to read the tactile plans at the Brussels central station are. Normally, I have difficulties relating what I touch on a tactile plan of a building to the real world. That station made a heavily simplified version of the experience by placing a pole at each crossroad of the tactile floor marking, with a simplified tactile plan at the top telling you where each of the forks of the floorline would take you. It looked a lot like the four navigation keys and the confirmation key on a classic mobile. Each of the arrows ended with a Braille description of the destination in both French and Dutch. This was a great help. Also QDos to the sound designers who created the jingle for the Brussels public transport company. It's a pretty dancey beat of five notes played on a synthesizer which would make a nice text tone. Find it at the end of the company's promo video below: youtube.com/watch?v=kmNBW0jdms… #Accessibility #Blind #AdventCalendar #Belgium #PublicTransport
In an unexpected turn, we've found ourselves blocking the official #RaspberryPi instance today, basically until they put an adult in charge of it.
If anyone really wants to learn how a relatively beloved and respected brand can burn a staggering amount of good will in record time, @aurynn has written up a very good case study of the event: eiara.nz/posts/2022/Dec/09/a-c…

Twitch have added a bunch of new charities to their list, and two of them are the LGB alliance - a transphobic hate group - and Autism Speaks - an ableist hate group.
This can't be allowed to stand. Please use the link below if you have a twitch account to vote for this issue:
Remove hate groups such as Autism Speaks and LGB Alliance. These are not charities.
LGB Alliance literally call for the killing and elimination of transgender people.
Nástroj Borg umožňuje zálohovat rozsáhlou stáj mnoha počítačů velmi efektivně a rychle. Využívá přitom deduplikaci a nezálohuje tedy zbytečná data. Odpor je marný, vaše data budou přidána k našim.
@jackc nevím, co je myšleno tou alternativou pro GNOME, ale mně se pro desktop hodně líbí Pica Backup, který taky používá Borg. Až tedy na ten překlad názvu v češtině - Pišťucha. 🙈 apps.gnome.org/cs/app/org.gnom… @kanvor
Keep your data safe – Zálohujte naprosto jednoduchým způsobem. Stačí připojit disk USB a nechat aplikaci Pišťucha udělat vše ostatní. Vytváření místních i vzdálených zálohÚspora času a místa, protože...
@sesivany @jackc @kanvor Znám jen Vortu, ale celkově je Borg myslím hodně dobrý. Používám ho již několik let. Na tu Pišťuchu se budu muset podívat, už jen kvůli tomu názvu 😀
@stubenhocker Auf die Tüten-Frage habe ich mal ein gaanz erstauntes Gesicht (große Augen, O-Mund) gemacht, mich dann zum Kassierer vorgebeugt, und verschwörerisch gefragt: "Wie viel?"
War wie bei der VISA-Werbung: "Das Gesicht – unbezahlbar…"
Has this been resolved? Approx 08:20 Fri 09-Dec-2022 I used my 'phone (on Three, defintely had the WiFi turned off) and logged in fine at mail.tutanota.com/login - I'm in Glasgow, Scotland.
stormdragon2976 pushed changes to the master branch of the linux-game-manager project: git.2mb.codes/~stormdragon2976… New -u option added for updating games. This is experimental, watch for bugs. Currently contains only 1 entry.
A reminder that the Republican Party is the pro-covid party -- ardently pushing laws that ensure uncontrolled spread of a disease that sickens and kills, especially older people. vox.com/policy-and-politics/20…
I refuse to call people anti-maskers or anti-vaxxers anymore. They are clearly pro-Covid. During a worldwide pandemic that has killed millions, they choose to side with the disease and death.
Robust, technische Probleme der Vergangenheit behoben... Man lobt sich. Vor Ort sah es aber leider anders aus: Zahlreiche Menschen berichteten, keine Warnungen erhalten zu haben. Je nach Gerät und Netzanbieter sah es doch eher durchwachsen aus, um es positiv auszudrücken. Warten wir mal auf die Ergebnisse der repräsentativen Umfrage...
"Technische Infrastruktur robust": Der heutige Warntag war nach Angaben des Bundesamtes für Bevölkerungsschutz und Katastrophenhilfe erfolgreich. Das neue System, das Millionen Mobilfunkgeräte alarmierte, habe funktioniert.
@Beowulf Wie getippst: Einfach nix ankreuzen und auf "Weiter" klicken. Funzt. Hab ich aus Protest gemacht und war erstaunt, damit durch zu kommen.
Zähle es als Intelligenz-Test: Bist Du schon so Obrigkeitshörig, dass Du das brav und ohne Murren stoisch ausfüllst – oder hast Du noch den Mut, Dinge zu hinterfragen?
"Bildung ist etwas, was man ganz ohne Beeinträchtigung durch den Schulunterricht erwerben muss." (Mark Twain)
@stubenhocker Stimmt. Auf der ersten Seite gar nix checken, auf der zweiten alles mit "nicht bekommen" – und auf der letzten einen ausführlichen Kommentar. Dazwischen wahrheitsgemäß der eigenen Meinung die Radios setzen. 🤷♂️
Der Warntag 2022 scheint exakt so gut zu funktionieren wie vor 2 Jahren. Mein persönliches Fazit: Keine Sirenen. Keine SMS auf einem Telekom-iPhone. Keine SMS auf einem Fonic Android Handy.
@Beowulf Hab den Link gerade nicht mehr zur Hand, aber vielleicht wurde da was per Javascript geblockt – und ich hatte Javascript für die entsprechende Domain blockiert? Bei mir ist per Default JS immer aus. Ah, gefunden: OK, das war es wohln nicht… Keine Ahnung…
#FDroid 1.16-alpha0 is out. This is really big for us, because it will help us to get rid of some really complicated long-standing bugs. It's a big change and still needs a lot of testing to get ready, but we're getting there. f-droid.org/2022/11/30/upcomin…
