#AndroidAppRain at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid today brought you 16 updated apps, but also 2 apps were removed:
* DiviDoc contains a self-updater, and its author did not respond to our issue
* URL to PDF was rebranded to WebCapture more than a month ago, so the "old" app was removed
Further, several more apps could be confirmed as #reproducibleBuilds – bringing their total number here up to 315 (or relative: 26.2%).
Enjoy your #free #Android #apps with the #IzzyOnDroid repo

Re DiviDoc ... You commented on an old closed issue instead of opening a new dedicated one:
github.com/Armand31/Dividoc/is…
Whether or not the author cares I can't say but for most projects that is a good way to go unaddressed. Also for the sake of every other potential user checking out known issues...

@alerque Yes, I commented on the issue that introduced this, Caleb. And I've pinged the author explicitly, twice even. Apart from that, the project has not seen any commit since 2/2023, and Armand seems "gone" since June. So chances of this being addressed are rather low to non-existent.
Should it be addressed later, the app can easily be re-established, metadata have been archived and not deleted.

Great stuff. Will you be implementing AutoCrypt, so people using Tuta can send encrypted email to people using other email services and apps, which also support the standard?

Having to use Tuta's clients to access Tuta mail is pretty much the only thing that's been holding me back from using the service.

Spotted on an evening walk on an isolated beach in Aotearoa #NewZealand
A small human (5?) holding up a kite so her older brother can get it in the air. She's an expert holder, picking it up every time it falls on the sand. The patience and optimism that it'll fly eventually seems infinite.
A man (30s?) with a thoughtful aspect pushing a wheelbarrow down to the water line. He's got all the gear for a perfect few hours fishing. A while later he's spotted in a deck chair next to a low table with a picnic on it while waiting for a catch.
A small group of young humans directed by a man (40s?) in setting up a sand-drawn rugby pitch. He's wearing a bucket hat and has the air of a dad on a mighty mission. Within minutes he has teams sorted and is running up and down the sand umpiring. This is serious business
Two grey haired naturists walking along the treeline on a quiet patch of the beach. From a distance they look like two tranquil, rather pink wild creatures happily holding hands as one of them points out different cloud formations crossing the skyline.
A couple of women (20s?) smooching while standing in ankle deep water. They pause to take a selfie and then one abruptly stoops and splashes the other. Shrieking, chasing and more smooching to follow.
Any typos spotted in this post are lost after being locked in overnight after the sunset gates were closed at this beach. If spotted give them a drink of water and a ride to the nearest town. They will appreciate breakfast.
Hey #openstreetmap people, i need your help again.
I'm using Overpass Turbo for the first time and struggling with a query that should be simple.
I've checked various help files but can't find anything.
I just want to show roads that have no speed limit. (So i know to go and fix that).
Something like:
nwr["highway"]["maxspeed"=null]
Maxspeed freshness tool
tl;dr I created Maxspeed freshness tool where you can see if tag exists, and if it does - how old it is!OpenStreetMap
I currently prefer MapComplete simply because I can quickly fix any missing values rather than jump between browser tabs.
Once I've completed the gaps, maybe then I can review older inputs.
@Marián Kyral @mahdi Já mám Firefox a Thunderbird binární, protože tam jsou updaty hodně časté, Libreoffice kompiluju na svých třech strojích pod hodinu (jsou to děla), na čas Qtwebengine se mi nechce vzpomínat.
Zkoušel jsem binpkg gcc, protože mi chvíli zlobila jeho kompilace, ale jinak té binpkg větvi Gentoo rozumím tak, že je spíš pro případ, kdy člověk spravuje síť a nechce kompilovat na každém PC.
Ta binární větev je pro všechny, kdo využívají nejčastější kombinaci USE flagů. Pokud člověk moc nedivočí, tak se použije binární balík. Jinak se kompiluje.
Bohužel čím větší balík, tím více USE flagů a tím větší šance, že se bude muset kompilovat. Nebylo by špatné, mít nějaký nástroj, který by mi řekl, kterými USE flagy se liším.
(nastesti pomerne rychle byl pak i binarni) ... btw firefox ma udrzovanej www-client/firefox-bin (esr i nejnovejsi), takze tady du cestou nejmensiho odporu.

Fairphone 4 and sensors

I bought a Fairphone 4 as a part of my project of de-googling my life.
Playing with different operating systems, I somehow ended up with a phone where most of the sensors didn't work, even if they did when I got the phone.

Listening to @FreakyFwoof latest episode and this gets me thinking about interdependence care. Ever since I was young, it was stressed to me, even to the degree of harm because I developed unhealthy pride and got into some very unsafe situations because my pride lead me to creating a toxic environment of internalized ableism for myself, that independence was the only way to go, but blind people when I was growing up did not want me to practice interdependence care. I was to be fully independent, at all times. I was never to ask for help, from anybody, and while I don't want to explain all the lonely situations that put me in, I'd like to illustrate how interdependence care can be beneficial.
I was at a disabled persons house the other day with a group of disabled people. They knew carrying things was going to be problematic for me, with my cane, and the plate stacked with food, so they asked me if they could carry the food while I helped someone else pour a drink they asked assistance for and couldn't physically do. I said yes, and soon, we all were helping each other out and no agency was removed from anybody. Interdependence care looks different from the traditional care model because agency isn't taken away from anybody. It allows us to get to know each other and our bodies, which is a very intimate space. But by allowing other people into that very intimate space, a whole new kind of person centric care can emerge. It allows me to utilize words without qualifiers because when I speak of spoons, these loved ones instantly know where I'm coming from because we all practiced interdependence care, which is a type of love that I haven't seen much. There's only care, and no judgment, and it's far less lonely than being independent.

Voy a relatar extensamente mi experiencia personal de la #dana viviendo en Picanya, pueblo que está separado de Paiporta por el maldito barranco:
Dia 1: A las 19h nos quedamos sin luz, agua y gas. Metro y medio de agua en la calle. Avisan de que no salgamos de casa, ¡a las 20:15! (Una hora después) Damos por perdidos los coches del garaje. Nos salvamos porque vivmos en el primer piso. No dormimos.
Dia 2: Salimos y vamos a ver la casa de mis suegros como podemos, esquivando coches amontonados. Tienen el garaje inundado y sin puerta. Nos dirigimos al centro del pueblo a preguntar si nos pueden cargar el movil para estar informados y en pleno paseo suena la alarma. Pavor entre los vecinos, parece ser que han soltado una presa para que no se rompa y viene otra ola. Al final nada, pero nos hemos tenido qie volver a casa corriendo. Finalmente pasamos la tarde (limpiando) y noche en casa de mis suegros porque estan saqueando casas y no tienen puerta.
Dia 3: Pasan muchos helicópteros pero nadie a pie. Nos pasamos la mañana limpiando. Consigo cargar el móvil utilizando el portátil del trabajo que tenía batería. No tenemos casi comida, así que me dirijo al punto donde todo el mundo viene con bolsas de compra. Resulta que es el mercadona, está la puerta forzada y todos cogen lo que quieren. Cojo estrictamente lo que necesitamos y vuelvo a casa. A mediodía el garaje sigue casi igual y la rampa medio despejada. Los vecinos nos miramos las caras con desesperación. Llega un grupo de chavales y nos ofrecen ayuda pero les decimos que ayuden al lado por que son mayores.
Dia 4: Empiezan a llegar decenas de personas a ayudar. Es el día que más avanzamos, dejando el garaje prácticamente vacío con solo algo de barro. En todo el día no ha aparecido ni un militar. Vuelve la luz a casa de mis suegros y podemos ducharnos por primera vez. En mi casa no hay luz ni gas, el garaje sigue inundado.
Día 5: Llegan los militares y oh... ya no los necesitamos...

Well I can't say I've ever seen a Vroom error before.
'{"error":{"code":"unauthenticated","message":"Exception of type 'Microsoft.Vroom.Exceptions.UnauthenticatedVroomException' was thrown."}}'
@jscholes I asked Google gemma 2 what it thinks it is, and got this. Whether it's true or not is a different matter. Though it sounds vaguely plausible I have my doubts.
Microsoft VROOM (Virtual Reality Optimization and Orchestration Manager) is an open-source tool designed to simplify the deployment and management of virtual reality (VR) experiences on Azure cloud infrastructure.
It automates tasks like provisioning VMs, configuring VR software, and managing user access. VROOM aims to reduce the complexity and cost associated with building and running VR applications in the cloud.
The world has turned into avoiding scams and trying to make shit work all the damn time. I just want something to go right. Somewhere where I'm not worrying about accessability or being taken advantage of, or having to do my due diligence about every god damn job I apply for. I'm so discouraged. I really don't want to do any of this anymore.
They say that being taken for a ride and being refused over and over gets easier. It doesn't. You just get numb to it after a while and you wonder what the damn point is.
@EdenLinnea I didn't take @jscholes comment to be against those who work for a living. The do nothing part to me said that there are people who are lucky enough to be born into a country that will support them financially, meet a sighted person to do all the things they can't or won't learn to adapt their way around, and then don't work or even attempt to.
Just my interpretation
@EdenLinnea @jscholes It's a bit of a stereotype, perhaps, but I know a lot of working-age blind people here in the UK who live off the benefits system. They've told the government they are incapable of work, which means they receive money each month without having to do anything for it.
Now I'm not against disability money or anything, but just as an example, one person I know is receiving roughly £26,000 a year in state benefits. I know that this person hasn't got the best qualifications or experience, but equally if they can spend all day cultivating followers on twitch, it's wrong, in my mind, to then claim they can't use technology to look for work or improve themselves.
That 26k is more than a sighted adult can earn on a full-time job at minimum wage, by the way, just as a point of comparison.
Conversely, I know people who have such complex medical needs that there's no chance they should ever be forced to re-train or look for work. They are truly and indisputably disabled to the point where we should, as a society, provide for them.
I guess the problem is some people might think that about young blind people with nothing else wrong with them. Until you've lived it, you can't always see the possibilities.
@cachondo I'm less concerned about the morality of capable blind people claiming benefits. I'm far more dismayed at the number of people refused government assistance who truly, very evidently cannot work, the gaps in or complete lack of employment history those blind people will have to present if they decide to apply for a position they actually want one day, and the possibility of the government assistance being withdrawn at any time leaving them with nothing.
Those last two certainly gave me a lot of anxiety before I found work, although some people don't seem concerned or aware. Either that, or they're putting on a show of not being worried about it. The more benefits you save for a rainy day, the less you get given. @EdenLinnea
@jscholes @EdenLinnea I don't know if they just aren't aware or just accept it under a sort of fatalistic, this is what I have now and i'll make the most of it sort of ideology.
All the time i was looking for work I was constantly stressed that I'd lose the benefits I did have. Nobody was interested in me proving I was looking for work, which begged the question as to why I got the benefits in the first place.
I also know just how many of my peer group of blind but otherwise able-bodied adults have gotten themselves in the 'I can't work mindset, and that's sad
@Brailly615 @jscholes @simon A lot of examples of blind people who don't have any of these 3 things?
1. i think this was sarcasm, so I primarily think people are taking this comment too seriously.
2. The people who don't fit these steriotypes are few and far between. Privilege plays a massive role in how much access people have, and the reality is that people who don't have these privileges (because that's what they are) struggle vastly more than people who do.
3. I looked up the institute you mentioned, and - unless there are 2 institutes by the same name - this isn't even exclusively for blind/VI people, so finding the examples you speak of would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
@simon It's not just the blind, though, is it?
half the posts on one of the big UK subreddits are now anxiety posts. Young people who've never caught a bus, mailed a letter, filled a proscription, paid a bill. Literally, paid a bill. A bill comes with an amount and about a dozen ways to pay in black and white and rather than sit and read it, they turn to the net because they're anxious about what to do next.
The world has gone utterly off the rails.
@bermudianbrit @simon oh yes, I won't argue that much of the crap we get saddled with as blind folk is a level above. But I just wanted to point out that there are people in their late teens who, when they get a perfectly simple thing they were expecting (i.e. a bill), call it trauma or anxiety inducing and turn to the web for 'Advice'.
Nella Rose is a 27 year old youtuber/influencer and made a conscious choice to go onto a TV gameshow last year, which had been airing for over 20 years before this, and spoke direct to camera about how surprised she was at having to participate in the 'traumatising' events.
I just can't fathom the mindsets of some of these people, yet there's sometimes more accommodations for them than for genuine barriers thrown up due to disability.
@bermudianbrit @simon and that's hard. I know people, trans people in the main, who feel that only now is it safe to express how they've always felt. And I'm incredibly aware of how liberating that is for them.
I narrowly avoided being sent to an 'institute for the enfeebled' rather than plain old 'school' at the start of the 1990's. I was that close to being labeled mentally unfit for public society. I still got called retarded and many other vulgar terms people wouldn't feel it appropriate to use today.
I'm out of education now, but some of the things we weren't allowed to discuss, or even make our youth think about in the last few years of being a teacher is incredible.
@bermudianbrit @simon I think so.
We got told not to speak to a particular student while they were walking the corridors once, because of the distraction factor. Not to reduce what we said, or avoid long encounters or limit it to the essentials, literally stop completely.
Then one year a student hadn't been accepted into the guide dog programme, so there was a blanket ban on mentioning dogs in range of them hearing, including in their shared classes.
Little things like that, it all added up to a wrapping in cotton wool attitude that never sat well with me.
A problem shared, and all that. I'd never suggest not talking about it.
But to imply you can rewrite the world to erase these issues is an absolute disservice to anyone suffering anything, I think.
Not sure you can call it a game show more than a reality show, maybe?
