Hi, how are you? I would like to clarify a question but I couldn't find the answer through the app. What is the price of the monthly plan? The app says it's €3.60. How much would that cost converted to BRL? I am Brazilian

@Tutanota olá tudo bem com vocês? Gostaria de esclarecer uma dúvida porém não consegui a resposta pelo aplicativo qual o valor do plano mensal ? Lá no app diz que é €3,60 quanto ficaria esse valor convertido em BRL ?

@Tuta
in reply to Thiago Santos

@Thiagosryy Hi there! Revolutionary is €3.60 the amount per month in Brazilian reals is all dependent on the exchange rate at the time of billing :)

Elon Musk is daily committing electoral fraud by offering bounties for voter registration and the chances of him ever experiencing meaningful legal consequences are close to zero because the state works for the capital class.

One of the top things I wish Apple trained all their UX designers on: do not show obvious, modal feedback telling me the result of something I just triggered is the expected one.

For example, control-click on a video on Messages and choosing “Add to Photos Library" shows a confirmation dialog saying this will make the video available on Photos on all my devices.

I know, that's what I just told it to do… and since it's something non destructive and easy to reverse, why the confirmation?

I thought I understood the extent to which the broad availability of mobile location data has exacerbated countless privacy and security challenges. That is, until I was invited along with four other publications to be a virtual observer in a 2-week test run of Babel Street, a service that lets users draw a digital polygon around nearly any location on a map of the world, and view a time-lapse history of the mobile devices seen coming in and out of the area.

The issue isn't that there's some dodgy company offering this as a poorly-vetted service: It's that *anyone* willing to spend a little money can now build this capability themselves.

I'll be updating this story with links to reporting from other publications also invited, including 404 Media, Haaretz, NOTUS, and The New York Times. All of these stories will make clear that mobile location data is set to massively complicate several hot-button issues, from the tracking of suspected illegal immigrants or women seeking abortions, to harassing public servants who are already in the crosshairs over baseless conspiracy theories and increasingly hostile political rhetoric against government employees.

Question to those #blind folks who have used the new Braille screen input of #iOS 18 on an iPad: Is there a different way to calibrate one's finger positions on iPad? I just got a new iPad Mini, and in both table top and away modes, the expected finger positions are so wide spread by default, that my hands barely manage to type anything cohesive. But putting first dots 4 5 6 and then dots 1 2 3 on the screen like it works on iPhone, doesn't result in the calibration of the finger positions. So, any trick I am unaware of?
in reply to Marco Zehe

The calibration for iPad was quickly tapping all six dots twice. I don't know if iOS 18 changed this, but give that a shot.
in reply to Marco Zehe

@alexhall Yep, that worked like a charm. You can also double-tap on the left and right edge of the iPad when in portrait mode to turn BSI on, don’t have to change to the top and bottom edges. Nice!
in reply to Marco Zehe

Yeah, keep on pressing 123, then 456 super fast, it'll make a sound and calibrate. and yes, they will move more with time than they would on the iPhone, and you'd have to do this more often.


I found a very odd Google search bug/misfeature on android: I've somehow gotten stuck in Brown Mode.

It happens in both Firefox and Chrome, and as long as I'm signed into my account, it's brown.

Some apps at #IzzyOnDroid would need verification if they still work. Aholic Gino started a list for that, most of them were already covered – but we'd need help covering the remains (just install, see if they work and are useful, report back either in the issue or as reply to this toot).

Any volunteers here on the Fedi? :awesome:

Here’s the server that’s been running my two #fediverse instances and #Hugo blog for the past two years.

It’s a low-power Intel NUC with a Celeron processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a 500 GB SSD. The entire setup lives under my printer and cost less than $300.

Bandwidth demands are modest—just a few gigs weekly. No fancy tunneling involved either. It’s just a straightforward router setup forwarding a couple of ports, a script that updates the server’s IP with my registrar as needed, and a robust Fail2ban rule set to keep things a bit secure.

No more corporate social networks and VPSes!

* they were homeschooled, so no high-schools and first grade teachers (arguable)

* they are not into music, so they have no favorite band.
* they haven't dated anyone

* they didn't go to college
* they don't drive



Wholeheartedly agree with @pluralistic 's plea to use #RSS, my favourite RSS application is in fact @AntennaPod for podcasts.

Slightly embarrassed to admit I don't really understand how it works, which suggests that vast majority of people don't know it even exists ...

Delivered where?
Are others I've downloaded from YouTube (& other sites) also delivered by RSS?
I don't subscribe to a feed reader, download podcast apps or give any of them my email address.
(I've nothing against RSS.)
in reply to KevinOnEarth

The program you use to download podcasts, whether that is Apple Podcasts, Antennapod, or something else, is an RSS reader.

Podcasts are structured as attachments inside of an RSS feed. The way you listen to a podcast is by downloading and playing an MP3 (streaming is just a form of downloading).

It is downloaded to your device by your podcast app.

The way the podcast app finds those MP3 files is by loading and parsing an RSS feed.

I guess the prophecy I made about feeling better wasn't self-fulfiling. Damn it. Also, I blew my nose and my left ear just sort of made this squeak sound and screwed up my hearing. Balance is off, it sounds like everything comes from the right. It's not as bad as when I went to sleep. Anyone have any tips for fixing it? I have tried yawning obviously, and chewing, and all the tips for getting water out of your ear, but nothing's working so far. At least the fever is still gone, and I do feel somewhat better, but not as much as I was hoping.

Right, I'm going to do something I dislike, but I literally don't know how else to get support to follow up with me.
I have indeed submitted two support requests in the intervening time, i'm not just being lazy I promise.
On 17 Aug I made a video about #FloatPlane accessibility and how not good it is.
I wasn't a troll, I was constructive and thoughtful, and yet I cannot get a hold of anyone at either Floatplane Media or LTT.
If *anyone* happens to know someone at one of these companies and could get my video to them, I'd be extremely grateful.
The other thing I really dislike doing is asking if people could boost for reach, but I'll make an exception.
Fedi is big now, and far more reaching than modern-day xitter, so all help gratefully received.
I thank you in advance.

"This is a recording of the panel "Realizing Visions of Postcapitalism: A Conversation about Information Systems for Democratic Economic Planning" with Alejandro Ruiz, Jessamyn West, David Zachariah, and Tomas Härdin, on 22nd October 2024.

Event description:

In this panel, we will explore some of the technical considerations of democratic economic planning (DEP). Alejandro Ruiz, Jessamyn West, David Zachariah, and Tomas Härdin will explore their work and converse about how existing organizations might be able to integrate that work to build DEP systems and postcapitalist outcomes in the real world. This panel will explore some of the infrastructure, interface, and institutional dimensions of postcapitalism, including the burning question of, “What is to be done to realize a better world?”

The beginning part of the event will be directed towards a general audience interested in DEP. The last part of the event will be directed more towards an audience of specialists who may want to engage in more technical dialogue. All questions and contributions are welcome, no matter how general or technical. We’ll do our best to make space for and translate between these two domains of conversation.

INDEP - The International Network for Democratic Economic Planning - indep.network

We are an international network of workers, students, researchers, and activists, who share the common goal of advancing a post-capitalist economic system based on democratic economic planning.

You can join INDEP as a member (as individual or as organization), subscribe to our newsletter, share news and events from the world of democratic economic planning. If you are interested in organizing an event with INDEP yourself or want to get involved otherwise feel free to reach out to us (email address is on our website indep.network)."
