Krásné dobré ráno mastodoníci! 🙋♀️🐕🐈 Už jsem vám tady psala, že náš dům je trošku zvláštní, že? Tak občas vypadá, jako něco extra. 😁😁 Taky má obrovskou půdu, dělenou přepážkami na dvě poloviny. Jedna půlka je v pohodě, na druhé se necítíte moc dobře. 😁😁 Je tmavší. Dcery národa se tam bojí a nechce se jim tam chodit věšet prádlo. Nepřispěl k tomu ani nález starého zrcadla, otočeného ke zdi. 😁😁😁 Taky se občas bojíte rádi?👻
Přátelé #fediverse, rád bych vám připomněl, že se bude konat 2. sraz uživatelů Mastodon v Karlových Varech! 🗓️ Datum: 15. srpna ⏰ Čas: 17:00 📍 Místo: Národní dům, Karlovy Vary
I don’t know why, but I keep coming back to this tune created by Suno #AI with just a simple “Hello, world!" prompt. It just sounds so, like, what, Scorpions or something like that? youtube.com/shorts/bT70gx1FiHk :)
Selectivity is long overdue. Marginalia, Stract, and Teclis feel like a breath of fresh air for broad short-tail queries because they downrank or skip pages full of ads, trackers, scripts, and even SEO. However, Google’s selectivity can’t penalise such criteria as that would conflict with its ad business.
Google has a bias against new sites. This makes sense, given their spam potential. I disagree with your argument that a bias against new sites is a pivot away from Experience, Expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness (EEAT): it takes time for a website to become an authority and earn trust. If delayed indexing of new sites is wrong, then the problem lies with EEAT. I argue that EEAT is a good framework for an answer-focused engine, but a bad framework for a discovery- or surfing-focused engine like Marginalia or Wiby, respectively.
Picture this: It’s ten years ago, and you’ve just launched a new WordPress blog. Within hours, sometimes even minutes, your content is indexed by Google.
In-Process is out! Featuring all the news on NVDA 2024.3 Beta 4, the add-on update notification feature in NVDA 2024.3, thanks to Intopia (& all our corporate sponsors) and a look at jumping between paragraphs! Check it out here: nvaccess.org/post/in-process-1…

"Today, the time has come to turn off the serving portion of Google URL Shortener."
No, you absolute shitheads, it's not just "the time." There's no immutable reason here other than your own disgraceful attention span.
If you create a link-shortening service, you owe it to the Internet not to just turn it off after a mere decade; even more so if you purport to have a mission "to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful."
What's happening here is that distributed micro-outrage doesn't spark the same response as single outrageous events do.
A plane crash that kills 117 people gets far more attention than the average 117 people killed in U.S. car crashes every single day.
Similarly, every person who uses goo.gl links now has to do unexpected, unnecessary work or lose data. So collectively there's probably a huge amount of rage, but because it's spread around, Google doesn't have to care.
Killed by Google is the open source list of dead Google products, services, and devices. It serves as a tribute and memorial of beloved services and products killed by Google.

I fought tooth and nail against getting rid of my landline, but once I got my current high speed internet and the landline only worked when there was electricity, I saw no point. Enter the Blind Shell and my $8 a month Tello plan. I have physical buttons for making calls, kept my old land line phone number, and my bill is much lower; paying around $70 a month for 800 MB internet speeds and couldn't be happier. I still miss the old reliable land line, but it doesn't seem to exist in that form any more, at least not in my area.
The Biden/Harris administration has released a tool — a first-of-its-kind software in partnership with the Department of Energy and HHS — that connects families to solar energy through the HHS' Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program.
Those enrolled in the program can see significant electricity bill savings, aligned with the National Community Solar Partnership goal of 20% in average household savings — the equivalent of $370 yearly per household.

Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of decentralized blockchain Ethereum, has issued a warning to his fellow tech leaders against choosing a candidate purely based on whether they claim to be “pro-crypto.”
While he didn’t name any candidate specifically, his warning comes just one day after prominent venture capitalists Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz announced their support for Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
“In a blog post, Buterin said it’s more important to scrutinize a candidate’s broader policies to ensure they support cryptocurrency’s underlying goals, including internationalism and protection for private communications,” reports @Techcrunch. Here’s more.

CQ Blind Hams is "the" source for #amateur radio content for #blind people in the English-speaking world. That's why I think it would be great if you could subscribe to the channel. They could monetize the thing with 1000 or more followers, which they then want to use to finance radio equipment for blind #Hams. I think it's a cool thing, I support it. Range boosts welcome. youtube.com/@cqblindhams?si=JZ…
With many people getting COVID from the summer surge, a reminder that the CDC's isolation guidelines are inadequate.
CDC shortened their isolation guidelines, not because of a change in the science, but in response to political pressure to keep people working even if they are sick.
Science shows most people are infectious for 10+ days; it's best to isolate until you test negative on multiple tests. If you can't stay home the whole time, wear an N95 mask to stop the virus spreading to others.

With all that out of the way, though, now there's reasons to be happy! ElevenLabs Reader has been now made fully accessible. After reaching the developers on
@TinaSohl That's nice. I'm glad the right thing was finally done, though it should have been accessible from the very beginning. Wondering how long it'll be until a task-blocking #accessibility regression gets introduced because they're still not shifted far enough left on accessibility.
