I'm a cis man and I've been hearing masculinity is "in crisis" since I was eight. So far as I can tell the "crisis" is "I can't act like an asshole anymore."
stormdragon2976 pushed changes to the master branch of the audiogame-manager project: git.stormux.org/storm/audiogam… Merge branch 'testing', latest code and bug fixes.
For those who like to experiment: I've now implemented root-based app backup/restore with #Adebar (after 3 people reported the corresponding scripts to do their job fine). Just pushed it to Codeberg, so if you want to give it a try, fetch the latest commit from codeberg.org/izzy/Adebar and give it a go
My new song "Crowbar" is now available on Audius (including a free download). The song is licensed under CC-BY, so you can do whatever as long as you credit me - use it in your meme videos, make it your morning alarm, you name it.
House Democrats formally elevated Representative Hakeem Jeffries to be their leader on Tuesday, uniting around him as the face of their opposition to the new Republican majority. He is the first Black politician to lead either party in Congress. t.co/MDgYTNnWdB
Admins, please let me know if you run into trouble on the upgrade. This is a tricky one, mostly due to Mastodon v3 -> v4 stuff. You'll get a lot of mileage searching the Mastodon issues repo for production errors you run into on the upgrade.
I'll repeat what I said on the release notes: if your installation is customized in any way (sidekiq setup, etc) you NEED to be careful.
Hello! This is a BIG update to Hometown. Notably we are now up to date with Mastodon v4.0.2, though I have made a lot of tweaks to the v4 user interface based on feedback from people.

Just wanted to let everyone know that #AppleVis is now on #Mastodon! Please give a warm welcome and feel free to start following AppleVis (@AppleVis @Apple @Accessibility @Blind @A11y
It's slow, expensive, the engineering is mostly port-a-potty chemistry, and the best-case outcome is that thirty years from now we’ll get to watch someone remotely operate a soil scoop from Mars instead of Pasadena
With some hacking i managed to run an old Chinese screenreading software from 2004 on a modern Windows 10 machine. The results were unexpected. 1. Total commander worked perfectly, labels worked even better than in modern NVDA. 2. Notepad could write, but could not read line by line unless used the mouse operation. 3. Visual STudio 2019 could write, and read! without any special operation. 4. Foobar 2000/Quentin'c game room didn't work at all. Yongde crashed. 5. Reaper could operate, but Osara did not work. Fun experience in deed.
O politiku jde až v druhé řadě. Pravou tvář Andreje Babiše vystihují hlavně příběhy, v nichž je ohrožený jeho byznys. Jejich cesty se kdysi zkřížily s byznysem Andreje Babiše a nedopadlo to právě nejlépe. Tedy – pro ně.
Wait, is this serious or pejorative? Did he actually physically disconnect a server rack when he claimed he was going to downsize services?
Because the services deployed on those machines would fail their health checks and Aurora would automatically just redeploy them to available nodes, that's how Mesos worked.
All this would do is increase utilization and degrade fault tolerance, it wouldn't even be noticeable by design.
I love this addition so much. I spent all week updating the docs and writing new sections for it. I added the a "getting started" section for people new to the code base, and have been filling it out all week. I'm hoping this makes it easier for folks interested in working on this app:
One reason I worked on these docs is that I'd like to attempt a virtual hackfest this weekend. It would be fun to get together and add some functionality to the game. If you’re interested at all in word games and free software and would like to attend, let me know! Even if its just to work on a crossword, all are welcome.
[ Also, if you've had success running a virtual hackfest also let me know. I'd love to hear about practical tips for running one of these. ]
Every website and app these days relies on so-called “social markup,” metadata for a richer and prettier display in social media and messaging tools. On the absolute minimum you may need.
I have redesigned the chat encryption settings. It now shows a clear indicator if and why the chat is encrypted or not. It also shows a prominent verification button. User verification is now the default. Below you see a list of the device keys with their verification state. There you can also block devices if you like with a simple toggle

Looking for people who know something about early computing, especially in the Netherlands. Please boost and help me solve the mystery of this custom made plate that used to belong to my grandfather Bram Jan Loopstra, one of the pioneers of Dutch computing. What do the pictures mean? #computing #history
Executives and product team leaders need to stop excluding people with disabilities and understand that their decisions affect how users interact with every aspect of their products and services.
@UncoveredMyths All of these boil down to “companies don’t hire disabled people”. No matter how hard they work they can never make something accessible without working *directly* with someone who needs that accessibility. And that person deserves to be paid for their labor.
“In #Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment and counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
Make sure everyone understands this — It’s costing us far too much to NOT provide housing and supports to those who are homeless.
Please help me get stable while I am in a bit of a financial bind
"As I work to complete my program, I realize I cannot work any kind of “regular” job. Since I am trained as and enjoy working as a photographer, I intend to freelance to sustain myself as I study. These last couple of months have been particularly difficult as I’ve tried to maintain."
Spend some time in Caribbean while working on a PhD? 🌴
My colleagues and I are looking for a PhD student to work on (Spanish/English/Kriol) code switching. Combination of corpus work and experiments. Please spread to possible candidates!
This lighthouse is SO UNIQUE! It's called Þrídrangar, which means "three rock pillars". It is located 4.5 miles (7.2 kilometres) off the southwest coast of Iceland, in the archipelago of Vestmannaeyjar, often described as the most isolated lighthouse in the world. The lighthouse was built there in 1939.
It's such a INCREDIBLE location for a lighthouse, perched on a rock in Iceland's wild surf. Originally constructed and accessible only by scaling the rock on which it is situated, it is now accessible by helicopter since the construction of a helipad.
I’m still trying to figure out how to find people on Mastodon with whom to possibly collaborate. Any performing musicians, dancers, poets, environmental or peace activists interested in collaborating with a composer, give a shout.
I'm wondering if the draw of Tokyo for younger people is the amenities, or the fellowship of always being able to reach other families. Or something else? Anyone know?
2022 cierra rozando máximos de empleo, aunque en un mes de diciembre en el que se enfrió el mercado laboral tras un buen noviembre. El año terminó con casi 20,3 millones de personas con empleo afiliadas a la Seguridad Social, con 471.
Ak nevyhovuje samotný mastodon, existuje fork hometown, ktorý má možnosť ostať len lokálny teda obmedziť federáciu. Alebo ďalší zaujímavý je gotosocial, ktorý nie je taký náročný ako mastodon a má predvolené hodnoty obrátené teda, nie všetko verejné ale je treba zvlášť zverejňovať. github.com/superseriousbusines… github.com/hometown-fork/homet…

That version, as well as the one before it, eats up RAM like crazy on Win 7 X64. Within 24 hours, NVDA uses more than a GB of ram and within 2 days it becomes unresponsive, but luckily restarting NVDA puts ram back to normal levels. I'd say the RAM goes up a few hundred kb in 20 seconds. github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issue…
Steps to reproduce: Make sure NVDA is running. Keep checking it's useage of RAM under the processes tab in task manager in Windows 7. Actual behavior: The useage of RAM for NVDA keeps going up ...
@kev I don't have an answer, but I see you created an issue, so thank you, that at least gets the ball rolling to investigate. I've been on leave but just wanted to reply to acknowledge the issue.
Nice book covers from contemporary Chilean publishers, on top "No tengo amigos, tengo amores", interviews with Pedro Lemebel from Alquimia Editorial 🗡 Espero que en 2023 muchas de esas tengan cuenta en Mastodon
