A vážně si v EU myslí, že tohle něčemu pomůže?
Vše poběží dál, jen do EU se budou dodávat ty dražší suroviny, které budou mít jakýsi certifikát, který možná něco dokazuje a možná také ne. Jen další z hřebíčků do konkurenceschopnosti Evropy. 🙁
Lanzamos la propuesta de organizar una conferencia internacional por la paz, con todas las fuerzas de la izquierda, para oponernos al escenario de conflicto global temerario al que nos arrastra la OTAN, Israel y los EEUU.
🚩 Máxima movilización ante la guerra.

Looks like Libre.fm, an open-software version of Last.fm by the GNU Project, is being reworked to support ActivityPub!

Yeah, it's been there for a while. I noticed it once when I paused before hitting the back button and heard the hint that a double tap and hold would bring up the history. Once in a great while I remember to listen for the hint to see if I can pick up something new.
I think VoiceOver does a good job with hints. For example, I like how when I'm using the braille screen input command mode.
Carole Ann Ford on reprising her role as Susan in Doctor Who:
“I've met Russell [T Davies] a few times and I absolutely adore him. He is the man that would be the boss man to say yes or no - so hopefully it's going to be yes.”

One of the themes which came through from the NVDA Satisfaction Survey earlier this year, was to improve Braille support. To help us target the most needed improvements, we have created a short survey. If you use NVDA with braille at least some of the time, please consider completing this survey.

Please also share with anyone else who may be interested.

Guess when #MapComplete started uploading pictures to our @panoramax -instance and started introducing `panoramax`-tags to the #OpenStreetMap-database...
There are 614 pictures in our instance for now.
If you want to see the graph for yourself, it is here: taghistory.raifer.tech/?#***/p…

Sam Altman believes #AI is using a trivial amount of energy.
"The energy use of AI, I think relative to the value it's creating, is quite tiny today. I don't want to minimize it too much, because it's going to go up — like we will use gigawatts over time, out of, you know, terawatts on Earth."
I guess this depends on if the energy use of small countries is trivial and if you believe Earth can sustain producing terawatts of energy indefinitely.

I called EMS once and police showed up before paramedics (paramedics were busy).
The first thing they said? “You don’t look sick.”
They waited for paramedics who took me to hospital - but that initial response stuck with me.
It’s why mask bans are dangerous. Police aren’t trained to make medical decisions. They shouldn’t be the ones deciding who can and can’t legally wear a mask.
Many illnesses are invisible - you wouldn’t KNOW we’re disabled to look at us.
Most of us have experienced gaslighting from friends, family and even doctors - people are quick to judge and decide you’re “not that sick.”
So are we really expected to risk criminal charges by wearing a respirator & just HOPE police will believe we truly “need it”?
Not to mention that medical exemptions leave behind anyone who wants to mask to protect and preserve their health - as well as caregivers and family of disabled people.
We rely on them to keep us safe - we NEED them masking in public.
I sincerely hope more people join the fight against mask bans soon - because if we don’t fight against them - more cities and states will pass them and more people will suffer.
A good respirator is excellent protection against covid & other illnesses.
We shouldn’t be further excluding disabled and high risk people from public - but that’s exactly what these ugly laws do.
Call your elected officials - tell them medical masks can not and should not be banned.
Don’t embrace escalating fascism and eugenics just because you don’t think it will impact you.
Don’t celebrate it because you hold a grudge about mask mandates.
It won’t stop with disabled people. Help us now & your future self will thank you.

"In seinem Neujahrswort 1990 spricht der Thüringer Landesbischof Werner Leich davon, dass der lange "Weg in die Freiheit nur in Versöhnung und Gewaltlosigkeit" gelingen könne. Dafür hatten viele keine Geduld. Der schnellen deutschen Einheit folgte die sehr feste geschwisterliche Umarmung. Der gerade erst so hoffnungsvoll begonnene breite Dialog, die Kernforderung des Neuen Forums, war zu Ende, bevor er begonnen hatte. Damals mahnten Stimmen die Aufarbeitung der gemeinsamen Geschichte an, vor allem der vor 1945. Doch das Gespräch zwischen Ost und West gestaltete sich schwierig. Gesellschaft und Kirchenvolk im Osten hatten das Gefühl, bei der Gestaltung der Einheit von Staat und Kirche nicht auf Augenhöhe mitreden zu können."
Das kommentiert Dietlind Steinhöfel treffend in der aktuellen

'Fietsers nemen weinig ruimte in beslag, ze vervuilen niet en fietsen is gezond. Wat is er dan mooier voor een stad, dan het aantal fietsers te zien groeien? Maar daar moet je de stad wel op inrichten. Want -vooral in de ochtendspits – is het héél druk op de fietspaden.
Welke straat kan een fietsstraat worden?'
