I recently realised that the placement of the hairdryer has something to do with the electrical code. British bathrooms are only allowed to be equipped with shaver sockets so a hotel room in the GB/IE will have the hair dryer in a drawer and there would be a big mirror in the room.

Made this disco track in Ableton last night. I wanted to try making something exclusively using samples, but also edit them to make them unique to me. I think it turned out sounding great, and Ableton made chopping and resequencing parts extremely easy and fun. Sorry no alt text for this one, for some reason I'm not able to enter it on the web, so I'll put it here.
A disco track in F Major with punchy drums and heavily processed samples.
🤷 Udelat kolecko ze ctverecku je v realu tezsi nez v Blenderu. 🚗 V Pribrami opravdu nemaji radi chodce. Jako fakt. ☕ A taky tam maj blby kafe. Hipsterske jidlo vyborne (mozna jsme meli hlad).
Vylet za zazitkovym kovanim doporucujeme vsema deseti.
was already worried about the company going with a cryptobro as CEO, but this very public Cheetohlini bootlicking seals their fate.
no tech CEO should sing the praises of a rapist propped up by fascists with a 900+ manual on how to turn USA into a criminal cartel hellbent in consolidating fascism worldwide.
i need an EU company not ran by fascists. where to Toto?
I'm disappointed to see @protonprivacy co-founder and CEO Andy Yen shortsightedly praising the incoming US administration for “standing up for the little guys”.
That said, I am glad that Proton AG's primary shareholder is now a Swiss non-profit foundation, which means the Swiss Confederation and Geneva can intervene if the foundation improperly moves away from its statutory purpose.
That bit about the personal blog makes me almost wish I worked for a company with big enough computing needs to own a whole rack. Hopefully some company will offer public cloud / VPS hosting on an Oxide rack someday. I assume silos mean that such a company could offer direct Oxide API and/or console access to its customers.
I'm the developer of Spiel, a new free desktop speech API and framework. I created a Piper provider for it, and the sky is the limit to what else is possible. Orca already has support for Spiel. project-spiel.org/
@henriqueffc at some point I hope this is hosted in flathub. The distribution and discovery of synthesis voices is a bit different than apps, so some work needs to happen. In the meantime spiel has it's own flatpak repo
🔗One of the most important things to understand about accessibility is how people use the web.

@stephanie I remember a story at Futureshop in Vancouver on Broadway. I wanted some GoPro accessory and they were locked. Ask the sales dude about one, he said "we don't have it" and left. And then I had to wait for another sales person for the alt I was thinking but didn't have time to ask....
And then at the cash sales dude 1 asked to be the "person that helped" (commission) and I said "fuck no".
I really needed the shit urgently and at the time Amazon Canada was still crap.
LibreOffice guidebooks are available in many different languages, thanks to our worldwide community of translators 😊 The Czech-speaking team just released the Getting Started Guide 24.8: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl… #foss #OpenSource #freesoftware
Zdeněk Crhonek (aka “raal”) from the Czech LibreOffice community writes: The Czech team has finished its translation of the LibreOffice Getting Started guide 24.8.
I’m always very impressed at the quality of these guide books! There should be a guide book on how to make a guide book because every time I try, it turns into a mess!

Happy birthday to Russian #mathematician & writer Sofia Vasilyevna Kovalevski (1850-1891). Her contributions to analysis, differential equations & mechanics include Cauchy-Kovalevski theorem & the famed Kovalevski top. She was 1st woman appointed to full prof in N Europe or to serve as editor of a major sci journal. She is also remembered for her contributions to Russian literature. All of this despite living when women were still barred from attending 🧵
Myself and @dadederk are hosting an iOS accessibility workshop at the coolest looking (in all senses) conference of the year @ARCticConference The workshop is included in your ticket price. See you there! arcticonference.com/#Programme
This fucking Free Our Feeds bullshit is basically trying to do for Bluesky what Mozilla does for Google.
And guess what, there’s Mozilla’s executive director and president on as custodians alongside two guys from AI companies and the executive director of Meta partner Social Web Foundation.
I’m so bloody sick and tired of bloody Silicon Valley asshats sucking all the oxygen out of the room with their bullshit and I truly hope the folks roped into legitimising it realise this and distance themselves as quickly as possible (you know who you are).

The amount of stuff like this that shows whenever you decide to not show media or show the text format of a mail, just because the sender didn't bother replacing it in their template, is frankly quite impressive.

Nutzer-Standorte aus Zehntausenden Apps stehen zum Verkauf
Millionen von Standortdaten aus Apps fließen an Datenhändler ab - das zeigen Recherchen des BR mit internationalen Partnermedien. In Deutschland sticht eine populäre Wetter-App besonders hervor. Experten sprechen von "Kontrollverlust".
Kurios das Netzpolitik über das selbe Thema berichtet, mit dem Unterschied das dabei alle Partnermedien ausführlich namentlich erwähnt werden: chaos.social/@netzpolitik_feed… @IzzyOnDroid
