And streets lined with citrus trees did not uproot [from] Berkeley and replant themselves in East Oakland and no police-involved gravesites unsettled themselves and my granny’s house got no closer to a grocery store and no less poor people were captured for recreational habits induced by capitalism and no electoral actors were handcuffed for war crimes because it was just art and Biden bought new laces for boot on Palestine’s neck and a thousand nonprofit diversity consultants sang about progress and the police they funded shot a thousand more people this year and amerikkka recalled none of its military bases and the Bush family breathed a sigh of relief and imperialism is a game of sacrificial scapegoats and the longer we revel in slaughter the more ritual it all seems and a win is a win so don 't ruin the moment said the zipper to the pinched skin and the national guard heard i wasn’t happy so they shot at my feet and so i jumped for joy and twisted my ankle and went to the doctor and got the bill and now i can’t even afford to pay attention and much less pay the rent

In Berlin wollen CDU und SPD der Polizei den Einsatz von Staatstrojanern erlauben, dabei darf sie das längst. Auf Nachfrage erläutert der Innensenat: Die Polizei darf zwar heute schon hacken, um Straftaten aufzuklären.
@cinux Oder sag mir dass du denkst **ich** hätte keine Ahnung und würde Dir Deine Vorwände abnehmen – ohne mir zu sagen ich hätte keine Ahnung und würde dir eh jedes Wort glauben.
Ich bin mittlerweile nicht mehr sicher, ob das wirklich Ahnungslosigkeit ist, oder bewusste Irreführung. Und frage mich immer öfter, ob man solche Leute noch VOLKSvertreter nennen kann (wen und wessen Interessen vertreten die eigentlich?)
@cinux was jedem spätestens klar sein sollte, seit eine gewisse Famileinministerin über Nacht Verteidigungsministerin und wenig später… Yupp. Genügend Berater hat(te) sie allerdings 🙊
Nein, ich fürchte mehr oder bessere Berater helfen nix, wenn man beratungsresistent ist. Wenn die, die du vertrittst, nicht WOLLEN dass du etwas verstehst, verstehst du es halt nicht…
Man hat scheinbar vergessen, dass das Wort "Demokratie" ZUSAMMEN geschrieben wird – und keine Gegenüberstellung ist.

This sketch by David Wray showing the schematic of a "post" type windmill shows how far the design has come
Nowadays, when you see a wheel to the rear of the main blades, that's to orient the top section. Back in the day, they would move the *whole thing* toward the wind. Imagine rotating a small house balanced on a pole
That's also why there's the third wheel by the stairs
This drawing by Barre Funnell shows how the rear small windmill is attached to the back of the main housing. It's used to orient just the top bit holding the main blades toward the wind
These schematics are from a Dutch book called "Theoretisch en practisch molenboek" or "Theoretical and practical mill book", which is the most Dutch title ever
Basically, building plans for a typical industrial windmill, published in 1850. It's definitely worth a look

No, `autocomplete` will not satisfy proposed WCAG 2.2 SC 3.3.7 Redundant Entry:
“The autocomplete feature of browsers is not considered sufficient because it is the content (the web site) that needs to provide the stored information for a redundant entry, or avoid asking for the same information again.”
Why reject an opportunity to let the user-agent automatically solve an accessibility problem? The point is to provide accessibility, not pile up requirements for the content providers. Letting the user-agent take care of accessibility is always the ideal.
And in other gaming news, Brock the InvestiGator just had a pretty massive update with a ton of accessibility fixes. The two of particular of note is the game now can output the text to the clipboard rather than speak with the self-voiced samples, which should let you play it in any language or with your screen reader’s voice and there’s now an option to align all the hotspots horizontally so they’re easier to find. But that just scratches the surface of what was added and you can see the whole changelog here
This update aims at fixing a lot of accessibility issues reported, as well as introduce a new option: it is now possible to have text-to-speech spoken in more languages by using a plugin! More explana...
Hele, jako takhle - já vim, že je těžký ten nákup položit na zem, ale když už jsem si dal tu práci a našetřil na lak asi za padesát litrů, nechtěl by sis ty zasraný hovado dávat věci na střechu svýho auta?!
@archos my jsme loni dali s lakýrníkem auto do pucu tak, že bylo jak nové. Za tři (tři!!!) dny jsem k němu na parkovišti došel a mělo odřené celé dveře.
@sesivany Jak jsem psal, lidí jsou hovada. Mojí někdo u baráku asi když projížděl utrhl zrcátko aspoň kdyby dál papírek s telefonem, ale prostě ujel. Je to tam hodně úzké, se stane, ale přeci neodejdu jak malý parchant rychle pryč. Fakt nechápu 🤦🏼♂️
If you’re looking for an interesting way to learn, @klemensstrasser’s new app, study with subwords is definitely worth a look! It turns flashcard style lists into a word game, making you assemble the answers from fragments of the various words in the list, with some amazing VoiceOver support. study.subwords.app

Did you know Tesla has cameras both on the outside of vehicles and the inside, and everything is uploaded to Tesla? Anyhoo they’ve been exporting the videos, making memes of customers and then posting them on chat rooms. reuters.com/technology/tesla-w…
Did you know that someone can just make an account on Amazon KDP and sell copies of YOUR book under YOUR name at a higher price than YOU originally asked for? Because apparently that's a thing that happens now.

My feelings on pirating books are complicated. On one hand, if you genuinely can't afford or can't access a book any other way, I'm not going to just say not to. Especially for things like school textbooks which, let's be honest, are horrifically overpriced anyway.
On the other hand, few fiction authors can actually make a living selling their work. Many struggle to break even. Many quit because of that.
Paying creative people for their labour, if you can, should be seen as an act of solidarity and support. Especially if they're asking only a few dollars for literal months of work.
Honestly, I wish we lived in a world where libraries were given a higher priority. The library pays the author. The reader supports their local community. Everyone wins.
Loupe 44.0 is out on Flathub! This is an initial release so we can get some feedback on the application and now it works for real users. Some features aren't fully complete yet, but it should be perfectly usable as an image viewer.
Huge thanks to @sophie for all the work she's done to get this app ready for release. If you want to support her, you can support her project on OpenCollective: opencollective.com/pika-backup
awesome work, really like loupe. Few things I noticed: - Portrait images are small by default - Image info does fit on mobile screens - It would be good if it opened the pictures folder by default like a typical phone / tablet gallery app.
Was so stoked to see this pop up on Flathub this morning. I’d been itching to try it for months. Excellent work so far, and the gestures and panning is all so smooth 👌
44.1 now requires a development version of GTK. Thats a bit unfavourable. Is there any chance to get the GTK fixes in GTK backported to 4.10 and require only this one?

I'll have to spend the evening transplanting the spinning rust 2TB drive I use for media in the current desktop, and the new 6TB drive I got for backups and the like; then install Silverblue and re-install all my configuration, apps, games, and development tools.
I could have probably spent a bit less by ordering everything myself, spending a month waiting for things to (hopefully) arrive, and then assembling the whole thing… But the result of paying somebody who does this as a profession is a very clean build, assembled and tested.
honestly the only thing I would have changed is trying to get ecc ram. It works with many ryzen systems and imo the price premium is worth it for the peace of mind.
But it's not something most boutique pc builders are familiar with :/
nice :) I got myself 7900 XTX. I am quite surprised about how much Radeon power management has been improved. Expected airplane, it is quite silent comparingly.
Of course, the case isn’t without issues—didn’t expect it to. It’s a new model designed for SSDs, which means getting to the HDD caddy is a great way to break things, and cabling is going to mangle your fingers into a bloody mess
nice! I too like sticking to a theme for device names, have been using Pixar character names for a while. My laptop is Dash (from the Incredibles), although it wouldn't really be considered that fast anymore 😁
I imagine it has RGB. Personally I'm not a big fan of RGB lighting. I can dig a white light inside the case to show off all the powerful hardware, but not the unicorn vomit kind of lights 😄 I'm also never personally buying a case with a tempered glass panel again as I like to open my PC from time to time to clean it, and removing the glass panel every time is nerve-wracking. Those specs look amazing though! It's going to spit out crabs faster than ever
@thomy2000 It has RGB in the CPU liquid cooler and the case fans, but the internal lighting is white; the glass panes are actually well protected and easy to move, so I'm less worried about them than my current case, which has a thicker frame around the glass window. All in all, I'm very happy with the case, even if it was the only one that could house the monster GPU card, so my options were limited…

allow me to curse your timeline by showing the Fork button on GitHub has no highlight outline on right side like the other buttons, which have all around.
@jfmblinux Well, you're always welcome to do that! We have a lot of users who enjoy Flatpak, and we also see this as a great opportunity to distribute the beta to them.

Microsoft plans to raise the prices of its office software in Germany – but #LibreOffice comes to the rescue! It also helps to free companies and organisations from vendor lock-in: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl…
Microsoft plans to raise the prices of its office software in Germany – and other services – significantly (article in German here). And not just once, but every six months there are to be “price adjustments”.
Why would you buy bloated, overpriced, office software from #Microsoft when you can have the excellent #LibreOffice? It's easy to convert files if necessary.
it actually goes beyond reason that public institutions (national EU&UN ) still runs msoffice . Your alternative is so much better, and if public institutions wants to spend money on software they should spend our money on you. Keep the great work
does anybody per chance have numbers on how much money German public institutions are forking over to MS only for Office licenses? One or two digit billions? Imagine that money was spent only once for a UX overhaul and other development of LibreOffice ...
With all respect, if you show this to a UX concepter, she'll see lots to improve. I'm not a UX concepter myself, but I work for a company that does it. Also, last time I gave the Powerpoint replacement a try, it was a nightmare to use... I totally like LibreOffice, though!
I believe #LibreOffice is a suitable document processing app. It is capable of formating and presenting docs the way user wants or prefers and supports #OpenType features

@dirksteins "url parameters" are called the "query" component and in the JSON it is listed as a single component. Splitting that up (in the JSON and elsewhere) is still left for future improvement.
The #44 proposal for JSON output shows the query component being split up in sub-components. That's was not implemented in the first json take but is probably still a good idea! Probably in additio...
