The duckyPad Pro adds more keys, rotary encoders, and Bluetooth to the popular open source macropad.
I really wish folks were more careful about the videos they post of their kids. Infrequent clips of activities like singing in a choir or playing a sport are one thing, but increasingly I see videos of small people (kids are in fact people) having meltdowns, or crying (even from happy overwhelm), or otherwise being vulnerable. Consider that if you took videos of your friends while they were crying, then posted them, you'd be an unsafe person for them to hang out with.
Be your kid's safe person.

Why is everyone hating on Mozilla Corporation for shutting down a Mastodon instance with barely any users? Doesn't it make sense that they should focus on making Firefox better? There are many, many great Mastodon instances. There's not that many good browsers that aren't Chromium-based.
/me ducks in anticipation of the Fediverse's fury
I just... can't get there on any of this. Is Mozilla Corporation infallible? Certainly not. But experimenting with new technologies such as ActivityPub/Mastodon and Generative AI is what any tech organization (or open source project) should do to learn more about it and see what opportunities there are.
The Firefox folks are working hard and making real progress to diversify their revenue beyond just Google. They compete against true monopolists (as classified by the US gov).
We love hearing wonderful success stories from our users. This week, we are very pleased to present to you Mykael, who is busy making it happen in Brazil!

Blogs about technology, HTML, hand held game consoles and humane use of technology do not usually make me cry.

I just learned (from Reddit, of all places) that there is a whole website dedicated to accessible builds for Guild Wars 2, created by gamers with accessibility needs.

For a book, I'm looking to conduct interviews with experts on creativity in diverse fields.
The book is for creative ppl & dismantles the myth of the "tortured artist" & unhealthy creative cultures. I suggest better ways to relate to creative work, and supply many paths for better personal & collective care.
If you know about:
- neuroscience of creativity
- meds & creativity
- art history
- creative labor org & rights
- something else relevant

I finally got around to implementing the MacPaint file format, so now you can not only convert all your old MacPaint files to PNG, but also the reverse.
If you rescue any old MacPaint files please send them to me for archiving on macpaint.org!
I've got #covid again, for the third time.
Shame that my individual act of masking every single time I use public transit or enter a store isn't enough to protect me.
Almost like #publichealth policy can't be based on individual risk assessment.
Stay safe out there, y'all.
I still consider Sync pretty trustworthy.
Everything that Firefox puts into sync is downloaded by every other synced Firefox - it's only used for sync, nothing's accessed "on demand" from the cloud - so you won't lose any data if it goes offline. And my understanding is that the encryption design for the sync protocol is pretty well done - Mozilla can see how much you're syncing between how many and which browsers, but not *what* you're syncing.
I once lived in a place that had a photo lab downstairs. I only started shooting film again after they moved out.
We deserve an amazing Android Email client, help us create it.

I often remind people that the progress we have made, be it rights we have won or technology that is accessible, has come about because brave advocacy pioneers knew that blind people are worthy, that we do not choose to be second-class citizens. That being able to maximise our potential is a human right.
Sometimes, people don’t believe we can change anything, so figure we may as well suck it up and accept the status quo.
Well, a few weeks ago, a group of blind leaders took on Vision Australia, after they said they weren’t going to advertise externally for their CEO. This significantly constrained the pool of blind talent from which the Vision Australia Board could pick. And make no mistake, we need more blind people leading the organisations that serve us. Lived experience matters when you’re a minority. And it certainly isn’t right that capable blind people are too often passed over for leadership roles in our own organisations. It is with great pleasure that I pass on the following message from Emma Bennison.
🎉 Victory for Blind Leadership! 🎉
United Blind Leaders is excited to announce a major step forward in our campaign! Thanks to the incredible support of 1,408 signatories, Vision Australia has revised its CEO recruitment process. The Board has confirmed that lived experience of blindness or low vision will now be a desirable attribute for the new CEO, and the search will be conducted externally with a focus on removing barriers for blind and low vision applicants.
This is a huge win, but our work is far from over. United Blind Leaders will keep pushing for blind and vision-impaired representation in leadership roles at all levels in Australia and globally.
📣 Join our movement! Stay connected by joining our mailing list and be part of our future campaigns: UnitedBlindLeaders.org
Together, we’re making a real difference! 🙌 #UnitedBlindLeaders #BlindLeadership #Inclusion #DisabilityAdvocacy.
That is Emma’s message. Congratulations to all involved. And to all reading this, never doubt, you can make change when you stand up for what is right. Know your power, and use it for good.
