Доступна платформа совместной разработки Forgejo 9.0, перешедшая на лицензию GPLv3

Опубликован выпуск платформы совместной разработки Forgejo 9.0, позволяющей развернуть на своих серверах систему для совместной работы с репозиториями Git, напоминающую по решаемым задачам GitHub, Bitbucket и Gitlab. Forgejo является форком проекта Gitea, который в свою очередь ответвился от платформы Gogs. Отделение Forgejo произошло в 2022 году после попыток коммерциализации Gitea и перехода управления в руки коммерческой компании. Проект Forgejo придерживается принципов независимого управления и подконтрольности сообществу. На использование Forgejo перешёл Git-хостинг Codeberg.org. Код проекта написан на языке Go и распространяется под лицензией MIT.

Moji milí sledující. Už podruhé se pouštím do akce, která mi přináší dost starostí, ale také hodně radosti. Kalendář mohl vzniknout jen díky vám a vašemu zájmu.
V anketě jste rozhodli, že po červených utažských skalách z minulého roku, to letos bude mix severoamerických přírodních krás.
Cena kalendáře je 350,- Kč. Zahrnuje výrobu kalendáře, pevnou přepravní obálku, zabalení a cenu poštovného v ČR.
Nejedná se o výdělečný podnik, cena kryje náklady.

There was a lot of news the other day about passkeys and portability - fidoalliance.org/fido-alliance… - that says in part:

"Until now, there has been no standard for the secure movement of credentials, and often the movement of passwords or other credentials has been done in the clear."

This is true, but... there is also still no standard for any of that. The specs are mostly empty placeholders.

We’re celebrating 20 years of Thunderbird this year! It’s been an incredible journey for our users, the dedicated team of contributors who have worked on it and of course our amazing open-source community who has been there every step of the way. 🎉 To mark this occasion, check out this beautiful video by @freehive and see how Thunderbird is ready for the next 20 years.

My very basic, personal Web site has reached the point at which I could write a blog post. I have now written a brief post documenting the decisions made in the site's development so far. I hope someone finds this information useful.

@matt The best way for me to detect such an issue as a screen reader user would presumably be to query font attributes (as long as I know what the defaults would be in the absence of the correct CSS). The slightly more interesting approach would be to submit a screenshot to an image-processing large language model and ask for a description of the styling.

We mock it, but it's a serious thing that the leader of His Majesty's Most Loyal Opposition has not obtained a national security clearance.

10 perfectly innocent explanations for why Pierre Poilievre won’t get national security clearance:

Overcast. If you are a Overcast user, and you currently pay the subscription of $10 a year, please be aware that Marco Arment is planning on raising the subscription price. The new price has not yet been determined, but could increase to $15 a year. You should know that the $10 a year has been in effect since 2016, 8 years. He discussed this on his podcast Under the Radar, which you can check out here... relay.fm/radar/303
in reply to Chris C

@overcastfm I have no issue with Overcast raising the subscription price if that's what the developer feels is necessary in order to ensure its sustainability. However, I recently chose to let my subscription lapse due to the recent VoiceOver regressions. While in a playlist, finding two buttons announced as "dimmed, pop-up button" after some podcasts was the last straw, along with double-tapping a podcast, hearing "play button" and then having focus move to another button. If these two items are addressed and if show notes are spoken while focussing on a podcast, I will renew my subscription but I won't subscribe to an app that I can no longer effectively use.
As an aside, why not add "Play Podcast" as a rotor option while pointing to a podcast.

Thunderbird for Android 8.0b3 is out! There are two things we'd really love help testing. One is the funding feature! (thunderbird.topicbox.com/group…). The other is the QR code sync between desktop and mobile (thunderbird.topicbox.com/group…). Thanks to everyone who has helped beta test and given feedback!

Bombic je z tej miniaturnej mensiny, pre ktoru sa podarilo naplnit tu cast programoveho vyhlasenia aktualnej vlady, ktora hovori o "bezpečnejšie žiť".

Lebo nackovia, fasisti, klamari, podvodnici, atd. a pod. sa tu teraz naozaj citia bezpecnejsie. (Volakedy by sli do basy.)

I really feel sorry for the public sector employees working on meeting this #a11y deadline for PDFs.

"PDFs are where services go to die."

No doubt the people working on this will be super under-resourced, and actually meeting this deadline won't be seen as much of a win by anyone, but not meeting it has legal and dire consequences.

To be clear more #a11y is good! Under-resourcing teams is not!
