#Mastodon 4.3 is out! 🎉 We've made notifications easier to manage and improved the look and feel of the whole app across the board. And that's just the tip of the iceberg! See what you can expect once your server upgrades:
You might have noticed already: since a few weeks, #MapComplete has a totally new search experience.
If you search something, the matching locations are shown on the map. If it matches the name of a layer or a filter, you can also opt to show only this layer or to enable this filter. For examplr, on mapcomplete.org/food, one could search for 'sushi' to only see sushi restaurants and then for 'open now'. Or search with an emoji, such as 🍕🍟🥙 or 🍙

First, instead of each rights-holder blocking one sport at a time, this year all the major broadcasters teamed up and won a "multisports" order that requires listed ISPs to block sites that carry unlicensed streams of NHL, NBA, and soccer games. They've already gotten 3 updates, adding MLB and UFC into 2026.
#TekSavvy is included in this order. Our info page with the latest order is here: teksavvy.com/policies/internet…

Second, now that site blocking orders are so well established to protect copyright, Indigo Books relied on them as a precedent to protect trademarks. They got an order requiring named ISPs to block access to the websites of the "Indigo Kills Kids" campaign. Since this order aims to block a website, it uses DNS blocking (like GoldTV), rather than the "dynamic" blocking orders used for streams.
#TekSavvy is not currently included in this order. Read the decision here: canlii.ca/t/k73h2

Today's challenge -- working out why GObject Introspection bitfield objects return zero when the value is bigger than MAX_UINT32. The value is correct in the .gir file, just not in the fwupd python bindings.
@ebassi @pwithnall (or anyone else) does this ring any bells please? I've opened gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gobject… with some more data.
Prime day is on, but I'm not sure if I have the time nor energy to browse it. On the lookout for a 20 TB back-up desktop drive though, need to push my NAS and other back-up drive to it and want at least 20 TB. I know they exist.
King 5: "Poulsbo woman calls authorities after finding over 100 raccoons outside her home demanding food
The woman told deputies she started feeding raccoons around her house about 35 years ago without any problems. Six weeks ago the population of raccoons "exploded.""

Wise words from Tuta's co-founder, Arne Möhle 👏

Western observers often express cynicism towards China’s self-proclaimed “Whole-Process People’s Democracy” without fully grasping its distinct characteristics and underlying principles. While Western liberal democracies prioritize periodic elections, China argues this approach is inherently limited, susceptible to corruption, and ultimately fails to truly represent the people’s will.
🧵
TL;DR:
1. Probably don’t add `` without guidance from a copywriter.
2. Probably don’t add `` to foreign words without expert guidance.
3. Probably don’t add `` to URLs, email addresses, code blocks, etc.
4. Probably restrict `<wbr>` to URLs, email addresses, code blocks, and similar where technical accuracy is key.
5. Probably restrict `<wbr>` to before periods and dashes and maybe slashes in URLs and emails.

Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:
I'm not a big fan of the account selector.
I don't like that I have to select the account and it cycles through the accounts instead of giving me a dropdown to select the account like it did in K9.
Expanding the account list to show the icons doesn't help much since I have multiple accounts on the same domain and the only identifying difference is the colour. Is there a way to customize this?
🔊 We're finally getting a fully stylable <select> element!
Me and @surma dive into the details, including 10 web platform features we got along the way.

Welcome to the RB family, USB Serial Telnet Server 
Thanks to the help of Alexey, this was finally achieved:
apt.izzysoft.de/packages/com.c…
And it means that 275 of the apps at #IzzyOnDroid are now set up for #reproducibleBuilds – or in relative numbers, 22.9% Hoping for the "forth egg" (25%) though it's quite a way to go, still 😊
Quebec's language law may force music gear off store shelves

Yup. Franco Fascist. I thought these goons were pro-business but apparently they are not either.
and then banning Anglo channels? Non-dubbed movies?
They are going for all of that. Like Fascist.
I am more sympathetic than most to the need to ensure products & services are equitably available in french
but
at some point the gov't has to realize that the entire rest of the world is not going to bend to their whims
NO ONE EVER ASKED FOR THIS #CAQASTROPHE.
Québec's language law may force music gear off store shelves...
And, how long before Québec cannot reach anglophone websites to purchase anything...

using LaTeX is easy, all you need to know is that when Donald Knuth failed the Mark of Mastery Exam and lost his ability to wield a keyblade, his heart manifested that power into a new person: Tela Type
Tela had the power to wield the Fountain Keypen, which was mightier than any Keyblade.
However when Tela's best friend Roxe was consumed by darkness (creating the nobody Xerox and the heartless Bell), Tela fell into despair and lost her heart too, creating the nobody LaTeX and the heartless Metafont.
You first meet Metafont in *Kingdom Hearts e-ε: ligature drop descender*, although they aren't that important.
LaTeX first apprars in *Kingdom Hearts π-ε : hbox overfull*, although at that point they're called TeX.
They only become LaTeX in *Kingdom Hearts Literate:coded* where they merge with their digital replica in a simulation of TAOCP and discover the χ-macro that was hidden inside themselves by king Mickey.
