Necesito un violín de tamaño subatómico para el señor que ganó un concurso de arte con una imagen hecha con IA y ahora se queja de que no puede registrarla ni percibir derechos por ella y todo el mundo se la está copiando.
❓ Wie kommt 'der Radfahrer' unter 'das Auto'?
Berichte wie "Radfahrer von Auto erfasst" klammern den Fahrer des Autos aus und somit auch seine potentielle Verantwortung. Als handelnder Mensch bleibt nur der Radfahrer, was ihm unterschwellig die Schuld zuschreibt.
Mit der nächsten #CriticalMass #Jena möchten wir darauf aufmerksam machen, dass die Berichterstattung einen großen Einfluss auf die Wahrnehmung der Umstände und das Image der Verkehrsteilnehmenden hat.

Rust is nice, but I really dislike this "rewrite it in Rust" stuff. It's tiring for any #FreeSoftware maintainer to be bombarded by this and honestly, as an opinion, some of the projects I™ have seen doing this have lost contributors, some have even been stopped for months.
#Rust Community, please create your alternatives written in Rust since it is so urgent, instead of putting this unnecessary pressure on communities already overloaded with demands.

Only 7 days left in the European Citizens’ Initiative to tax the ultrarich to finance the climate transition.

There are two solutions to ARIA Live Region issues:
1. Don’t use ARIA Live Regions (but use focus, dialogs, or other managing of what’s going on)
2. Put the live region in the DOM at page load (They cost nothing. If you need an alert and a status, put two divs in with both roles.)

Jak to jest, że ktoś kto troszkę wypada poza standardową metryczkę klienta banku nie może założyć konta? W Polsce są pewnie dziesiątki tysięcy takich osób.

"If you walk by my office, you'll often hear me cursing at a computer. It is always the same curse: "FOR GOD'S SAKE, STOP HELPING ME!" You're not good at it, you don't know what I want, just get out of my way. Every time I get a new computer, I spend about an hour turning off all automated assistance so I can get some actual work done. Predictive text is always wrong. Auto type and auto format are always wrong. And now here comes Gemini."

2. Feasting on Features: You could say you "feast" on the features of JAWS by exploring and utilizing all the different tools and commands it offers to enhance your computer experience.
